You’re the first one to the show. You slide down the row of plush chairs and sit The curtain rises. On the stage is a row of a plush chairs. A masked figure is sitting there. Someone is standing behind them. He’s got a knife “I love this part.” Whispers the person behind you

The elves hold up torches in the gloom, and read the paintings on the cave wall. The milk-spoiler is copying a map to the dairy. The hairdresser is learning knots and tangles. And the chief kidnapper kicks the leg of the new, sturdy cradle

“You know, when I hired you to screw this up. I hadn’t realized I would be getting my money’s worth.” You feel it in your gut. It’s starting to get dark, even as the sun is rising.

The vampire smiled, then shook his head. He waved off the comforting noises of his thralls. “Sorry. There’s just no good way to prepare for the historical recreation of your first apartment.” He does not resist as they lead him gently out of the Tower Dungeon walking tour.”

Moving in the shadow of the bed’s canopy is a hunched figure. Before you can scream, clawed hands cover your mouth. “Don’t.” “They want you to fall in love with me. To break the curse. If they think you won’t…” There is a clatter of china in the hallway, and he falls silent

You’re sitting in your lab. The Time Machine worked. But every bad thing that ever happened to you, every thing you’d hoped to avoid… had still happened. You had the means now to intervene and some future version of you decided not to. Nobody has ever disappointed you more.

Ouibliette is a dungeon town. The traps are disarmed (mostly), the puzzles solved and the mechanisms that drove both are put to good use washing laundry, cooking food and doing other light housework.

The Hero has developed a new move for disabling robo-sentries It is a slash which, when executed correctly, allows him to forward-flip up and then stab the sword through the robot's face and into the ribbon cable that connects CPU and motility board He calls it a Reverse Arthur

Picnic Pete considered the damaged robots. He liked The Hero's new move, because it damaged a peripheral cable instead of the servomotors or the processor that commanded them. There was, as a result, much more salvage to be had in this dungeon than normal.

The jester nodded. It was an ironic death, certainly. He’d never performed for anybody that looked so happy to see him. It was always satisfying to put a smile on someone’s face, even if the whole audience WERE chimpanzees

You can hear them in the wood, crying to be let out. Sawsall and rotary sander, plane and lathe, sweat and blood, all are applied to the strange little men carved of wood

They peered over the edge of the abyss. “Can you tie a magic knot?” “No.” “How to cast a fireball?” “No.” “How to transmute lead to gold?” “No.” “Well what’s the point of being a wizard librarian if you don’t know all that stuff?” “That’s what the library is for!”

Revealing the horrible secret: the miraculous and seemingly boundless power fit to replace dogpower is… MAN
Idea: Dogpunk world, which is like steampunk but instead of the world being powered by steam its powered by those fucking turnspit dogs on a wheel. All technology, including planes and tanks are all dog powered somehow

Picnic Pete tried on the Drowning Boots. They were heavy, as expected, but surprisingly comfortable. He hopped snd clicked the heels together and the shoes hardened into two solid cinder blocks, bringing him back to the ground with a crash. Oh, he could make an impact with these

You are exhausted in a hospital bed having given birth to your firstborn child. As you see their beautiful face for the first time, your husband's face goes pale. "That's not what she looked like."
On your son’s tenth birthday he starts behaving oddly. He is independent and secretive. He wants you to invest in obscure tech companies. He stares at himself in the mirror. your car is low on gas sometimes. Finally, you just ask. “Why’d you decide to press the red button?”

The coffee is running out twice as fast as usual. He slightly smells of cigarettes. You found a bottle of Vodka in his room.

You know better than to go ice fishing by the light of the full moon. But you can’t resist. Standing on the lake, you hear the grinding of augurs piercing the ice. Each blade, rising out of black water. Get off the ice.

The fish knife ends you. You never stood a chance against the Camp Lake Slasher. You rise in the light of the Blood Moon. The Camp Lake Slasher is leaning over you, pulling a thread tight as he sews your arm back on. “Your last try was good. I bet you make it this time.”
