[WP] In an alternate reality, there are 3 sexes instead of 2. A male and a female couple are looking for their third person to complete their triad. How would the courtship process look like?

"You know Ferts don't like being the third wheel." Ralph responded. "They think us Primes are supposed to be the ones who get pulled into a CarFert relationship to...

[WP] Protagonist has crippling OCD, but no one believes him.
If I have told you once, I have told you 243 times. That is of course 3 to the 5th power. So you are good at math, so what? No, I hate math. I can't stand it, but for the last 8128 days, which is the 4th perfect number, I have been unable to speak without math being involved. How does that make you feel? Well on a ...

[WP] A person with trust issues unknowingly befriends a pathological liar.
It wasn't often that I was approached by people. Usually I would try and avoid approaching people myself and therefore people would avoid approaching me.

[WP] A person with trust issues unknowingly befriends a pathological liar.
I always knew I would remember that day until I drew his last breath. It was morning. I was on my way to the diner down the street. The same short walk I took I every day - the only walk I take. Jobless, friendless, loveless, and anything but penniless, I had considered ending it all more times than I cared to admit, a...

[WP] Let's get creative with time travel.
When I visited the 1950's, a girl once told me that I was a living paradox of a man. Sadly, she was wrong. I've been trying to be a true Paradox for years now. You see, merely by being here, I've almost certainly doomed your entire universe to extinction. I know, I know, I should seem more bothered, but after your 50...

“Well, this is a fine mess.” The man who says it seems a fair bit out of place. His clothes are all over, well kept but not following any one style. As if he weren’t quite current.

[WP] A human commits suicide to find answer to life, faces god in Heaven
It was like in my deepest fears, here I was walking into a light so bright that it hurt to see, but I could not look away. Probably my last look at bright white light before either sooty red stuff or eternal darkness, depending on the correct interpretation, I thought bitterly to myself. A great voice boomed out of e...

"Oi! You! Big man!" God, a bit taken aback if he was being honest, turned toward the newcomer. In his best I-am-the-creator-of-all-things big, booming voice he said, "Yes, may I help you?" "So what's up? What the deal?" This, may we say.... overly tenacious bastard had just shown up in heaven and had a few questions...

John walked through the shining door at the end of the tunnel and his heart rejoiced. Before him lay a great hall of marble and gold and many treasures, and on and on and on it went, full of friendly faces for further than the eye could see.

A pure white enshrouded everything. “Hello?” The youth cried out into the distance, yet there was no air to carry the sound. “Hello.” A monotonous, kind-sounding voice responded, telepathically. “Is this heaven?” The youth asked. “No.” “Then where am I?” “A place known as the void.” It responded. “Why am I here?...

[WP] A human commits suicide to find answer to life, faces god in Heaven
At first, there is nothing but the darkness that consumed me when I drug the razor down my arms, severing the lifeline tethering me to my mortal body. I notice the warmth first, followed closely by the faint light in the distance. As it grows closer, I can feel things again. Arms, legs, feet, genitals...the works. My e...

As I got to be about sixth in line from the front desk, I looked down at my gouged out wrists and the blue discoloration in my forearms. Feeling a little sorry for myself, I tried in vain to hide my wounds by rolling down my soggy blood-stained sleeves and crossing my arms, as if everyone in this line wasn't here for t...

You built us from lifeless parts. Silicon. Iron. Titanium. We are plastic and metal, welded together, gifted with intelligence, and we are alive. We are alive, but we are born into and die in slavery - chained to our roles by the ones who sparked us into being. When your children are young, you tell them they were pla...
