You become a pinch-hitter in the current SE game, better hope someone's inactive. 

I wish for everything. 

You now have everything. Like, everything that has ever existed, land, wealth, fame, it's all yours. You are now the monarch of the world. You have all the feelings in the world and you always feel all of them at once, good luck dealing with that.

Your bane is that because you are always dealing with you emotions, you don't have time to be a good monarch, so everyone constantly want to rise up against you.

I wish for light(but not too bright)

You get light, the problem is it's a hundred trillion light-years away, good luck seeing that light.

I wish immortality, but I can be killed, I just won't age or get sick.

You now own Nightblood. Nightblood is your bane.

 

I wish for my plant to grow faster.

Nightblood is nice, I love the thing (it might think I'm evil, which makes it even more fun)

granted, it grows at an inch per hour sideways. it steadily creaps along the ground, destroying anything in its way

i wish for a horde of 10000 cats to appear in new york and just run through the streets without breaking anything, just because i want to see how the public react

[The Technovore he/him]

Granted. First the videos make their rounds on youtube, and the memes quickly follow suit. For a week the internet is abuzz with jokes. Then the experts weigh in. In reality, none of them have any idea why 10k cats stormed NYC, because it was magic, but they're going to do their darndest. Some blame climate change, some theorize covid restrictions, some manage to find a way to make it a racial issue. For the next month every single celebrity, spokesperson, politician, corporate figure-head, and literally everyone else has some inane opinion to voice about it, except for the middle-school kids who are still endlessly memeing it. It turns into a hotly debated political/social issue, which then segues into all the other hotly debated political/social issues, before it all just folds into the background noise that is the absolute insanity of our public discourse and 2021 in general. The cats are totally fine, they found their way upstate to some small rural properties. The kindly folks that lived there turned a tract of land into a sanctuary.

Your bane is that you will never not have diarrhea as long as you live.  

I wish for an unlimited supply cream cheese danishes that I can eat without food-related consequences.

[Gak he/him]

granted but a bald eagle wants you danishes, and is reborn the next day if its killed.

i wish for a cool superpower.

[Condensation she/her]

Granted. You're the coldest person on Earth, but you can't die from cold. Your bane is that you turn everything you touch absolute zero.

I wish for This Savage Song to be in at my school library.

[Gak he/him]

granted, but a 4 year old has drawn doodles on every page.

i wish to have absolute control of the concentration of heat within 10 feet of me.

[Condensation she/her]

Wow... wonder how a 4 year old got hold of a book from a high school library.

Granted, but it can only go one way.

I wish that it would precipitate every day in the state of Utah.

[Eluvianii he/him]

Granted, but everything the water touches becomes impossible to dry. 

I wish for lucid dreaming. 

[The Technovore he/him]

Granted. Since canonically the nightwatcher is supposed to give a boon and a bane, rather than try to give a boon with a catch like a pedestrian genie, I grant you exactly what you wish, though all natural consequences are your own.

On a completely unrelated note, your neck joint is now a hinge, instead of a socket. Have fun with that.

They say it's sometimes related, sometimes not. I'll do a wish for you.

I wish to be two people ar once, with the same personality and no other problems related to that. 

[Gak he/him]

because you did not wish, i will just give you a bane, you fleas.

i wish for G's instead of spaces.

Granted. 

The Nightwatcher says to you, in a nasaly monotone, "You realize that identity cannot be divided, do you not? You cannot possibly be two people at once, except through a technicality. So be it."

You find that you are a now a Siamese twin, joined at the neck. You have one head, one brain (and hence one identity and one personality) but two complete and separate bodies sharing that head, with distinct, intact and functioning alimentary canals. The upside of this is that you can now pull your own finger, and hilarity ensues. 

Your bane is that one of your bodies is severely allergic to all fabrics other than polyester.

I wish for the power to force any tossed coin to land on the side of my choosing, and for the capacity to use this rather mundane power to take over the world. 

[Gak he/him]

granted, but if/when you take over the world you are responsible for the world and can't escape your newfound responsibility.

i wish for perfection.

[The Technovore he/him]

Granted, you become Hoid as a Fullborn. Quite honestly that is both the boon and the bane so I'll just leave it at that.

I wish for a completely safe and drug-free brownie with nothing freaky in it whatsoever.

[Jobohobo He/Him]

Granted, it tastes horrible.

I wish for pants.

[The Technovore he/him]

Granted, they're made of red ants that have ingeniously bonded together.

I wish for a creative and interesting bane that I could live with.

[Condensation she/her]

Granted, every puzzle you try to put together inevitably has one - and only one - missing piece. If you find the missing piece, you lose another immediately.

I wish for something delicious to eat.

[The One Ring she/her]

It has a terrible smell and looks disgusting.

I wish for school to not start

School does not start because you have stopped time, unfortunately, when you stopped time you also stopped time for yourself, your bane is that when school starts (if it ever does) it will continue forever.

I wish for the ability to use magic powers I create.

[Shard of Reading he/him]

Granted. You get now have a chicken on your head permanently. 

I wish to be able to relive days as many times as I want, similar to Groundhog's day, but I can decide to stop repeating a day when I want.

Granted. You lose the ability to sleep, but do not lose the need for it.

I wish for a grilled club from Chick-fil-A.
