[WP] You're that guy that always "knows a guy." Literally. No matter what someone is asking for, you automatically know the person that can help them. | "Rebecca, do you know anyone that can get my house painted for cheap?"
"Yeah, yeah, I'll get him in a little while. See you." I sighed as I hung up with Joe. This was a usual happening. Whenever someone needed somebody, I could get them.

The only light in here was from a dim lamp and the little bit of light at the end of my cigarette.

[WP] You're renovating a 100yr old home when you find an ancient samurai sword beneath a dirt floor. It looks heavy, and you notice ancient markings along its hilt. When you finally wield it, the blade becomes alive with light and a magical force suddenly grips your body. You.. are.. invincible. | My god, this has to be the finest sword ever made. I mean, I've done my research, but this thing has to have a hundred times the cutting power of a standard European broadsword. The balance is perfect. I could swing this all day and feel more energetic than before. And the material! I could see the circular markings de... | I flung the sword as far away as I could from me, panting. The sword clattered and struck the wall. No, I was dreaming. How the hell was I **glowing**? You only see that shit in movies...
I slowly crawled towards the sword again, touching it. Again, the same aura around me, and a strange feeling of...utter strength. ... | |
[WP] You brace yourself for the worst as the witch tells you the effects of the curse she just placed on you. As she finishes, you blink. "So...what's the downside again?" | “That oughta teach you some manners.”
With a dramatic flutter of a gaudy black cape and a flick of a long red fingernail, that was it. I was "cursed". I could feel the magic setting in. It didn’t hurt as much as I would have thought a curse should hurt. If anything, it was just a pinch that faded quickly.
“Uh… it’s a... | "I curse you to lose your manhood and become a woman!"
I blinked. Blinked again. "So... the downside is...?"
She smirked, as if she'd put me in checkmate. "You will never be a man again!"
