All this WAR-ing has me looking forward to the next round. So much so that I would like a prompt now. So...someone prompt me, please.

Anyone else who's as impatient as me is free to request a prompt as well.

 

Prompts: 

1. Summer is coming

2. Please stop

3. The awkward moment when Death asks for your name

SCENE 1, INT. SMALL APARTMENT SOFT MUSIC PLAYING - NIGHT

DING-DONG!

SUMMER, a nubile dragoness wearing scanty purple lingerie, answers the door, where we see...

                                                              HIRO PRODRAGONIST

                                                     Did someone order a large sausage?

                                                                        SUMMER

                                                                        Tee-hee!

I just stole prompts from the battles raging now. Because of course I could make better use of the prompt. Ha

Ah, good idea. I like Seb's prompt, though. And, for some reason, using a prompt used in WAR already doesn't feel as thrilling.

Why do people enjoy prompts? I don't like prompts at all - my ideas are obviously better than some claptrap  someone else made up. If I couldn't come up with story ideas, how would I ever write stories?

The idea is your idea dippy, it's just a prompt.

Sometimes you just need a word, a phrase or something to connect all the pieces rattling in your head. It's not like I asked for an entire plot.

No, no excuses. Don't soft-peddle your creative lapse! If I listed all the things I 'need' to make a story, none of them would include other people. In fact, I find people detrimental to the cause. Invaluable for editing, but useless for creating.

And now that I've blessed you with the opinion I made up 40-odd minutes ago: go, and sin no more.

You're always an inspiration to me, Stacy. Your hatred keeps me warm.

I love Wizards. It had been a while for me too, so I'm re-watching it on YouTube.

That awkard moment when Death asks you for your name.
