1. GHOSTS » It is a known fact that only ten percent of ghosts are friendly, five percent are under curses, and the rest of them just want to kill you.
2. THE EVIL WITCH » Did you learn nothing from Hansel and Gretel? Do not eat the house!
3. A SIMPLE TRAVELER » You knew this forest was haunted. The map and villagers all warned you. You just asked for trouble and have found it.
4. WEIRD NOISE » For the last time, we get that you are hearing noises. The forest just makes noises, okay? It doesn’t mean something is there! Right?
5. FAIRY HELPER » Congrats, you met one of the nicer mythical creatures! While a bit annoying, at least this being is not set on killing you!
6. BATTLE » Be it a fight that started in the forest or somehow went into it, you might have more to worry about than who you were fighting originally.
7. THE MAZE » This is the worst. You turn here, make another turn there, and find yourself back at the beginning of a maze. Can you ever get out?
8. TALKING ANIMALS » Be sure to be polite—animals are fickle and could send you in the wrong direction.
9. BIG BAD WOLF » A classic cliché, you have run across someone who seems nice. Too nice. Just what is their end game here?
10. STRANGE SIGHTS » You cannot resist a good mystery—and when it comes to that, the forest is full of them! Come on, grab your mystery caps!
11. FAIR FOLK » These beings are known for their love for pranks. Have they turned your head into that of a donkey, or is someone just egging you?
12. BAD VACATION » On your online review, you are going to make sure to mention the broken toilet and the serial killer who was not taking a vacation.
13, A HIKING TRIP » Exercise and fresh air are lovely things, but maybe you should have chosen a different forest. The last 50 hikers have all died here.
14. THE QUEST » Through sleet and rain and shine, you must complete whatever your quest is. Rescue a damsel? Find a cure? Slay a dragon? Good luck.
15. UNWANTED VISITOR » When a trigger-happy hermit or grumpy dragon kills you, don’t say we didn’t warn you! There were literally dozens of signs.
16. A UNICORN » Oh my gosh oh my gosh you found a unicorn quick take a picture!
17. THE CASTLE » Many tales speak of castles that change locations or disappear with the sunrise. Can you break the curse or will you get trapped too?
18. THE NICE WITCH » Not all witches are evil! This one actually helps people on their quests from time to time … for a price. Are you willing to give it?
19. RAIN » You are cold, lost, and hungry, and now it’s raining?! Ugh!
20. HUNTING » Whether for food or for a dangerous criminal, you gear up and decide to go into the woods. Beware, this is no nice place.
21. THE OLD MAN » Look, we told you to ignore this guy. He might seem nice, but any advice or “magical items” he gives will not help you.
22. BAD LUCK » The map was outdated. The car got a flat tire. The boats have holes in them. A simple camping trip is now an utter comedic nightmare.
23. FLOWER GATHERING » What a lovely pastime! Are you picking flowers to woo a crush or cheer up a friend? Hold on. Where did the path home go?
24. SNOW» Okay, so saying, “At least it’s not snowing” is new.
25. THE HERO » Okay, fine, so you don’t believe in legends and refuse to heed the warning signs. Be prepared for all that you will face, foolish warrior!
26. THE HUNTED » As a last resort, you have gone to the woods to escape something that is pursuing you. Hopefully you will survive.
27. MORE BAD LUCK » This time, the whole forest seems to be out to get you: poison ivy, a squirrel sending mountain lions on you, and a rude llama.
28. RANDOM » Is there a trope or scenario that we forgot? Want to roll again? Go right ahead.
intensity
1. DRIZZLE ☂ It’s not too heavy or too light of a downpour, just enough to wash away stuff in the air, water the ground, and clean up the streets.
2. MONSOON ☂ It’s horrible and awful! Rain is coming down in buckets, no one can get anywhere, the wind is whipping everything about, and now the cable is out.
3. SHOWER ☂ Reminds you of early spring, doesn’t it? A nice shower to make everything all green and smell fresh again. Lovely.
4. FLOOD ☂ While rain is good, it can sometimes be bad. Grab a boat!
5. CATS & DOGS ☂ You’re lucky with this one. It’s not the worst storm in the world, but it’s still pretty heavy. Be careful when driving!
prompts
1. A DARK, STORMY NIGHT ☂ You know all those stories that start off with a stormy night before something goes wrong: a murder, an attack by ninjas, a crime. It is one of the best known clichés in the world, and you’re stuck in the middle of it.
2. HUMIDITY ☂ It’s that time of the year again when the humidity rises and the rain has two options: make it worse or make it go away. Good luck getting the latter.
3. GRAY RAIN OF DEPRESSION ☂ We all know this one. Stuck in the middle of no where, or right after an argument, or something that leads to angst, the rain decides to express someone’s feelings in a physical form, serious or over the top.
4. QUIET MORNING ☂ Nothing to do, nowhere to be… sometimes the rain is a welcomed addition to a quiet day. Gives you an excuse to stay in, curl up in a warm blanket and a book, maybe a loved one or a cup of hot chocolate. With sprinkles.
5. PUDDLES ☂ After it rains, what is the number one thing you have to do? Go put on some rubber boots and splash around of course!
6. SUDDEN STORM ☂ It might have been predicted, but sometimes storms just sweep in and do their thing with little to no warning. Hope you’re not outside.
7. THUNDER & LIGHTNING ☂ Loud, surprising, scary, ominous, comforting, fantastic to watch or listen to… some like thunder and lightning, others not so much. Of course, if this happens before a big confrontation, the universe is telling you something.
8. CAN’T GET WORSE ☂ You did not say that. You did not just say that. How many times does this need to be seen in movies and books before anyone learns?
9. STUCK ☂ No, no, no, no. This cannot be happening. What happened to the ten percent chance of rain? You forgot your umbrella and now you’re stuck in it!
10. RUINED PLANS ☂ You had all these wonderful plans to go outside, have some fun in the sunshine, do some errands, maybe a date… and the weather goes against them.
11. DANCING ☂ Sometimes rain is a cause for celebration, or you just feel like doing something spontaneous. Grab someone to join you and get wet!
12. RAIN BATTLE ☂ The most intense, important battles happen in the rain. Verbal spars, punching someone in the guts; it’s all dramatic and climatic. And no one slips.
13. DATE ☂ Aww, don’t let the weather ruin your date! It can be really romantic, being out in the rain, and it’s always fun to go with the flow.
14. A DAY INSIDE ☂ Sometimes, it’s just better to stay inside and enjoy something simple and easy like board games or catching up on TV shows, or maybe the bills.
15. WILD CARD ☂ Was there something I missed? Did you want to roll again or choose your own adventure? Go for it!
1. just depressed.
Things are tough, you're feeling worn out, or whatever the case, you're depressed. You need help or someone else thinks you do anyway.
2. abandoned.
You were left behind by everyone you hold dear and now you're forced to see how well they've adjusted, how happy they all are while you're screaming inside.
3. sick.
Cold, flu, or something even worse, all you can do is lay back and let someone take care of you.
4. fight.
You've been fighting nonstop with the other person and it just keep escalating.
5. break up.
You're being broken up with and they won't reconsider... Damn.
6. separated.
For some reason, you've been separated from the other person for a long time.
7. kidnapped.
You've been held captive for how long now? Maybe they've been torturing you even, using your blood to write ransom notes, threatening to cut off fingers to send next, etc. Rescue is on the way though, right?
8. beaten up.
Just because someone didn't like you or maybe they wanted something you had, whatever the case is, you're coming home sporting some nasty wounds and bruises.
9. jealousy.
You just have this undeniable jealousy suddenly and you need to let it out.
10. cheated on.
This goes beyond just suspicion and you have full on proof of what your lover has done. How do you handle it?
11. apathetic.
You're not sad, you're not happy, you just... don't feel much anymore. The sparkle of life has gone right out of you and you're just going through the motions now.
12. addicted.
Drugs, alcohol, whatever your drug of choice is, you can't fight the draw and you can't draw yourself out of the hole, but the other person is going to try.
13. bad romance.
You know this isn't good for either of you, but you can't stop now.
14. fear.
Nightmares, the feeling someone is following you, etc. You can't shake the feeling.
15. insanity.
You're seeing things and hearing them, waking up only to realize you've done things you don't remember or you're in a place you weren't before. You're losing it and you don't know what to do.
16. guilt.
It's eating you up inside and you have to tell someone about it now. You want to be punished and you won't take no for an answer.
17. loss
You've lost something dear to you.
18. wild card.
Combine some options or make your own!
Bruised. Beaten. Stabbed. Sapped of energy. Tricked. Mentally played and abused. Perhaps you've even seen your home world destroyed, depending on how Homestuck you are. Any way you slice it, characters go through a lot of crap.
There's nothing wrong with wanting to see them get pampered and taken care of when they're ailing. In canon, they may not have someone who can provide them with care when they're injured, support and love when they're sick, and physical intimacy all around. In this post, AU or other scenarios can provide them with a caretaking partner of their very own (or, maybe, someone to take care of, if the reverse is their preference). So, for once, weary traveler, you don't have to carry that weight all by yourself.
