Eventually, I'll get back to posting more regularly on here, but in the meantime, you can find me on Substack every week! I just put out the Wish-Granting issue, where I don't advise you to be careful what you wish for, but rather *who* you wish to.

@KANEKWEEEN Kweeeen! Proud of you, friend! I'd love a copy. (PS it's Thunder; I stopped going here and have zero idea what I did with my original account lmao)
“Here’s an #idea. Why don’t you find a bridge and 𝖏𝖚𝖒𝖕 𝖔𝖋𝖋?”
“I hear that all the time, sweetie,” said the traffic cop as she handed Ronnie her ticket.
Ronnie could only watch her walk away. Nobody shrugged The Voice off like that! She’d need to investigate this.

“An anti-#gravity suit,” said Thunder Lass, “is meant to prevent blackouts often caused by the g-forces one endures while operating a space or sky craft. It cannot fly on its own.”
“Fine! But in my defense, they shouldn’t call it a ‘flight suit!’ Can you save me now?!”

Stay for the love.
Stay for the children.
Stay, for there is no safety net.
At first, marriage was a gorgeous red #ribbon that tied us together. Now it binds my hands and feet as it slowly twists around my neck, forming the noose that will end me, unless I end it first.

“The planet is an organism, and living beings are its #genetic structures. Like faulty genes, we’ve allowed cancer to develop and grow. Difference is that the planet is good at destroying that which threatens it.”
“This is why nobody wanted you to speak at mom’s funeral.”

“Babe, I’m pregnant!”
“Hun, that’s the thermometer I meant to toss. It’s broken.”
“No, see? Two lines!”
“Right. It measured 11 degrees Celsius, which is too low for anything you did with this. Didn’t the ‘C’ clue you in?”
“I thought it #signified I’d need a C-section….”

Hands shaking, he held the pangolin-woman against the wall, knife pointed at her unarmored throat.
“Here’s some advice,” she said. Her rough tail wrapped around his hand, forcing him to press the knife’s tip firmly against the hollow of her throat. “Don’t #hesitate.”

“Blow me.”
“Excuse me?” I turn around.
“Down here!”
I look down and see a lone #dandelion seed head. “Oh.”
“The winds have been weak. Could you help?”
“Sure.” I bring it to my lips.
“Heh. Careful not to get any in your mouth!”
Sigh. I drop the plant and stamp it out.

“I’m sorry, but I can’t allow her to enroll. Do you know how dangerous it is for one with a speech impediment to learn magic?”
Toya’s guardian shook their head at the headmaster. “She works harder because of her #stutter. It will only be a factor in her success.”

It was more of a #rivulet than a stream. It flowed so slowly, I feared it was actually sludge. And yet, I planned to drink from it. I crawled toward it on my stomach, cracked lips trembling in eagerness to break its surface. One sip. It was disgusting. It was heaven.

@derickijohnson I am so glad you're making use of Twitter voice because hearing this one was such a great experience. It's definitely going to stick with me. Thank you!
