[WP] Write about an alien intervention that happened during World War 1.	We came to Earth, detecting the signs of an upstart industrial civilization.

[WP] you are the sole survivor of a spaceship crash.	The taste of blood filled my mouth, pooling in liquid over the tip of my tongue. I spit while I tried to pry my eyes open, one too swollen and caked with dried blood to open more of a slit.

[WP] A soldier/warrior balks at the violence and horror of battle. Then, they start to revel in it.	This might be a little choppy because I'm tired and I need to go to bed. ------------------ The morning bell rang early.

We want every ...	1	11	34,503
[WP] A soldier/warrior balks at the violence and horror of battle. Then, they start to revel in it.	I was drafted from prison. I didn't want to fight. They sent me to trenches in a far off godforsaken country, fighting someone else's war. I didn't give a damn about the hearts and minds, I didn't care if the politicians won or lost in their ivory courts, where winning or losing was a matter to laugh about behind close...	2	11	34,504
[WP] A soldier/warrior balks at the violence and horror of battle. Then, they start to revel in it.	The taste of battle sits heavily on my tongue. The thick iron of blood that sprays as lives are ended comingles with the salt of aging sweat, of fetid urine. Pathos is in the air, aerosolized so that in every breathe, I drink death. Death is not sweet. I cannot see through the writhing limbs and blades. The world s...	1	11	34,505

[WP] A soldier/warrior balks at the violence and horror of battle. Then, they start to revel in it.	I had once hated the music of war, and despised being part of the orchestra of death. There was no reward in slaying my fellow man, I was however admittedly very good at it.

Dear Peter, It is much to my displeasure that I will not be there for your birth, or first day of school, or summer camping trip, or to bail you out of trouble, or help you try on tuxes for prom, or graduation, or watching you go off into adulthood.

[WP] One man discovers the secret to immortality is to take some one else's life.	Today I turn 143. It may seem too old for a human. Well, you're right. It IS too old for a human.

[MODPOST] It's Sunday: What Are You Sharing?	I started this sci-fi story answering a prompt here, and have been updating it since! It's about a guy brought back to life by a newtlike specis that has replaced humanity, who want answers about humanity (in particular, the secrets of bondage) while the guy is more interested in having fun with his second shot at lif...	1	13	34,583
[MODPOST] It's Sunday: What Are You Sharing?	I am not bold. I am inside myself. I am an apparition of a body that lacks substance. I am here. I am not present. I am not forward. I am forwarded. I am provisioned, pushed, presupposed. I am floating. A gust of wind could blow me wayward because I have not constructed my defenses. I retreat without provocation. I shi...	1	13	34,584
[MODPOST] It's Sunday: What Are You Sharing?	"Where am I?" I asked, looking around. There was nothing besides the old man and the gate. "I can't remember.." The old man smiled. "You are dead, Charles." "Charles? Woah. Haven't been called that in ages." I stalled, processing what he said. "So that makes you Peter and these the Pearly Gates? Yo, wait, I'm dead!? ...	1	13	34,585
[MODPOST] It's Sunday: What Are You Sharing?	Wrote this a while back. It has been too long since I've been lost in paragraphs of fiction that weren't written for me, too long since I've gone days without the constant exhale of smoke from my lips; because I cannot take the sobriety or the silence. I sit in vacant parking lots and hope my thoughts catch on. I t...	1	13	34,586
[MODPOST] It's Sunday: What Are You Sharing?	He stood by the shore of the great lake, his feet cold and wet on the small lake-stones, looking out onto the vast sea of sky reflected upon water. The confluence of these two massive entities drilled profoundly into his soul, and just as the subtle Superior waves reflected the cirri, so too did his miserable state of ...	1	13	34,587
[MODPOST] It's Sunday: What Are You Sharing?	I've been writing the Tropeday contests as they come up as a continuing story, but I always end up posting them late on Monday mornings. Which means they're always well off the front page by then. Having just done this for the fourth week running, I'm just going to post them here. [Link to Part 1](http://lexilogical...	1	13	34,588

[WP]: A world where extras in cinema are the true movie stars.	“Oh. My. GOD. Are you–?” Jen looked up from her book and flashed that famous self-deprecating smile, the one that had catapulted her to superstardom as Onlooker #2 a decade ago. “It is you! Jessica is going to flip! Can I– can you– I have a pen, I think...” She clawed through the contents of her purse, desperate. Je...	3	13	34,590
[WP] A boy whose toy got destroyed	Every Wednesday afternoon for the past five years I would sit at a table outside the local cafe, drinking a black coffee and reading the newspaper. Sometimes I had a piece of fruit, but only when it rains, and it does not rain often in this town. It took me two such Wednesdays to notice the boy. I probably first notic...	1	7	34,591
[WP] A boy whose toy got destroyed	Thick, swirling smoke settled slowly on the rubble of buildings. The bombs had come at Christmas, just like coal Father Christmas had promised to naughty children - only now, of course, coal would be welcome. The oddly still and silent road was beginning to disappear, now. A woman rose from shattered glass and bri...	1	7	34,592
[WP] A boy whose toy got destroyed	I had a favorite toy when I was young. It was a battery operated fire engine. We never had much growing up, but at least I had that fire engine, and that was good enough for me. When I played with it, it wasn't so much play as an escapist fantasy; a momentary vacation, where the food stamps and the yelling and the brow...	1	7	34,593

[WP] Tales from tech support for sex toys [NSFW]	"Trojan Helpline, how may I assist you today?" "Well, that's kind of the reason I'm calling." "What do you mean, ma'am?" "I was wondering if you assist me by talking to me while I use the Trojan Turbo I bought a week ago. It just came in and I want the first use to be special."

[WP] Your body was born as a blank canvas. Describe how it has been changed to the masterpiece it is today.	The colors on me are still fresh, newly painted. They're at that stage where the paint can still be spread, still dabbled, but isn't goop dripping around. The colors are very sensible, smart grays and blues. A little green. There are occasional splatters of jarring colors, but navy is quickly streaked through them, a...	1	6	34,598
