Szeth_Pancakes he/him Posted May 10, 2021 Report Share Posted May 10, 2021 Granted. Instead of the truth, people are now scared of you. I wish for the Nightwatcher to do my history project for me to the best of her abilities. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granted. Knowing nothing about Terran history, the Nightwatcher is forced to base her understanding of human history solely on the contents of your pockets, in which you have a snickers bar wrapper, 47 cents in change (US currency), and a receipt from Starbucks detailing the purchase of a birthday cake pop and a grande carmel machiatto. Needless to say, being light on information she opts to create a diorama for you, wherein President Lincoln and president Eisenhower are shown rowing a canoe made from a snickers bar with oars shaped like cake pops down a carmel macchiato river, while George Washington waves to them from the shore. The production value is top notch, you get an A+ for the sheer technical prowess displayed in the construction of the miniature animatronic presidents and the manner in which the macchiato river is recirculated to create a gorgeous waterfall and a perpetually flowing river. Oh yeah, for some reason, both Eisenhower and Lincoln are wearing coonskin caps and are singing Frere Jacques. Spoiler I wish that in the cosmic struggle between order and chaos, that enthalpy was winning instead of entropy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Szeth_Pancakes he/him Posted May 15, 2021 Report Share Posted May 15, 2021 (edited) Ok, that one deserves an upvote. Yes, that would be very cool. Unfortunately, the change wouldn’t be noticeable in my lifetime, but, like, the heat death of the universe still keeps me up at night. TPBM just woke up.

Your bane is that you are now a 3rd tier super hero, nicknamed Dr. Xerox. No cushy chair at the Justice League for you, no special quarters in Avengers tower, not even a room at the X-men complex. Just a duplex in Des Moines that you share with Kid Stretch, and Captain Flasbulb. Every great power is by necessity limited, the constraint on your power is that you have to eat a volume of food equal in mass to the object you copy (sorry, no copying the Eiffel tower) and your copies all come out monochromatic gray. But the upside to that is that if you don't mind eating gray food, you can eat pretty much any food you can think of in perpetuity (the inputs equal the outputs which become the inputs, etc, etc) I wish that I could create a working jetpack, that is safe and easily controllable, out of common household materials. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelsier'sGodComplex she/her Posted May 17, 2021 Report Share Posted May 17, 2021 Granted, it's safe for you, but not for anyone else. Anyone you fly by is immediately burned by the flames coming out the back of it. I wish that WoK would magically appear in my backpack (I'm at school rn) because I forgot it and am now super bored. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Szeth_Pancakes he/him Posted May 17, 2021 Report Share Posted May 17, 2021 Granted! But it is a ciphered copy, and you have to decipher it to read it. I wish for mac'n'cheese. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quivil she/her Posted May 17, 2021 Report Share Posted May 17, 2021 Granted! But if you eat it you'll die. And also it's invisible, intangible, and permeable to flour. I wish for a kindle that has all the cosmere books and will get all the cosmere books that aren't out yet when they come out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelsier'sGodComplex she/her Posted May 17, 2021 Report Share Posted May 17, 2021 Granted but it's in Gaelic and you can't change it. I wish for a tub of frosting to go with my lunch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Doomstick he/him Posted May 20, 2021 Report Share Posted May 20, 2021 Granted, @the Nightwatcher, you are called. your bane is that your left shoe is always wet I wish that people would remember that the nightwatcher does not twist the words of the boon, but grants it as desired and applies a random bane, generally unrelated to the boon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruh, so much yes on this. I've always been a little bit bothered that the Nightwatcher in this thread is basically a stereotypical genie. 49 minutes ago, Szeth_Pancakes said: Granted...

Your bane is that you now have an insatiable desire to work, be working, be accomplishing things, and/or sweating, and will have one for the rest of your life. My wish is for communism to completely disappear from everyone's minds and the general realm of human thought forever. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since it's been awhile, I'll wish for @rosharian_cat. They wish for World peace, somehow involving cats. Granted! The peace train that Cat Stevens sung about in the 70's, is in fact a real thing. It's an intergalactic space train staffed by hyper intelligent kittens who are all dressed in super adorable conductor caps, button down vests, and pen striped trousers. The earth is visited by this train, and humanity, upon seeing the cute antics of the train kitties, is forever changed. Seared forever from the collective pysche are the instinct for cruelty, the drive for revenge, and the fanning of passions from the sparks of petty jealousies. Instead, people the world over are rendered docile and content, and spend their lives making the world a heaven on earth for cats, kittens and their fellow man. Your bane is that you have two peg legs, but they are spring mounted pogo sticks, so once you get the hang of using them you excel at basketball. I wish I could make a moment stretch into a near eternity. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
