[WP] Your dear pet is ill and as a last resort you summon a demon to heal them. What you did not expect was for the demon to be equally concerned for the wellbeing of the animal before any contract was signed.

[WP] "You humans sure have a strange sense of humor. Sure, your planet totally has huge bodies of water that cover most of the surface. As if something so scarce would just be found falling from the sky. I guess when we reach your home world tomorrow you can show us all these fantasies in person!"

[WP] You are a simple skeleton enemy in a fantasy world, when you encounter the hero, instead of killing you he spares you and asks you to join his side on his adventure.

[WP] Reddit grants users powers associated to their usernames. After thinking that your superpower was useless you keep living a normal life. Things take a turn when a new villain appears in your city.

[WP] You get a knock. You open the door to see your nemesis, bruised and beaten, with your child. "Just saved their life. Need to go home and rest." Your nemesis turns to leave. You grab their arm. "Hang on. I want you to tell me what happened." You drag them inside.

[WP] You’ve just won the chess grand championships, and as a joke, someone bets you can’t win against a 100 rated bot. You, as a mind reader, don’t know a lick of actual chess.

[WP] You have a retro-causality gun. If you shoot anyone with it, the timeline will be rewritten such that you were entirely justified.

[WP] You're on a fourth date late one night at a restaurant - it's been going really well. After they get up to go to the toilet their phone starts to buzz incessantly. You can't help but crane your neck to see what the ruckus is about: "You need to get back now, the portal is closing, this is it".

[WP] You wake up disoriented when offered some rags to cover your naked body. Eventually, you remember you were king. A coup used an arcane spell to change your looks and displace you, leaving only your family's birthmark. People assume you are dead, but the new ruler is still looking to kill you.

[WP] Time stops as a girl with red eyes walks past crowds of people, stabbing one man before giving another person the knife. She starts walking away until you sneeze.

[WP] Everyone has something referred to as “Narrative Potential Energy” the higher this value is, the more involved in a story you are. Protagonists have a high amount as they drive the story forward, and background characters have little. Somehow you have negative narrative potential.

[WP] Last week you found an old sword in a box. When the blade was unsheathed it spoke to you, recounting its history. It declared you bearer of the mythical talking sword of Babel, and that you are bound together until death. Unfortunately, the sword is incredibly irritating and won’t shut up.

[WP] Demons escaping hell and creating businesses on Earth is more common than you’d think. Most create bars, casinos, and other dens of sin. You were different. You were tired of sin. You built as 50’s style ice cream parlour.

[PM] Toss me some Isekai tropes, scenarios, and/or plots. I'll do my best to add a spin on it using my character.

[EU] as the first gym leader, you'd had enough of going easy on challengers only for them to brag and act tough afterwards. And so, for the upcoming gym season, you decided to make it harder with your best pokemon. Is it uncustomary? Probably. But is it breaking the rules? Only one way to find out.

[WP] You run a daycare after the apocalypse. An unspoken rule among the wastelanders says the Daycare is off-limits to all. You raise the children of warlords, chieftains, and nomads.

[WP] The Villain finished his monologue. Civilians standing around waited for the Hero to begin the fight, "Well, what are waiting for? Demolish the bad guy!" The Hero responded, "Hang on, he's made a couple of good points. We should hear him out."
