[Honorless he/him]

Stop giving me the Coronavirus y'all! 

[Experience he/him]

Granted, your gift is to not have any senses anymore and your bane is to get 1 thousand boxings.

Nightwatcher has more limbs than you. Many, many, many more limbs. You are quickly caught in her many hands.

It was nice knowing you

 

 

I wish for the power to summon lightning

granted, but you cannot control where it strikes.

I wish for the ability to choose my own bane

Granted! You can choose your own bane:

A) All of your senses are now focused towards the internal rather than the external: you can see your insides, you can smell your insides, you can feel your insides, you can taste your insides, you can hear your insides: but you can't see anything outside of your body, you can't hear sounds that you didn't produce, you can't smell odours not emanating from your body, you can't feel anything on the external side of your skin. You can follow your entire digestive process: see, smell, feel and taste your food becoming turd

B ) becoming an obligate cannibal: you have to eat corpses (you can also eat them bite by bite while they're still alive, if you want). You don't necessarily have to kill someone to feast on their flesh, blood and marrow: an already dead person also works! This is the only way you can get nutrients and satiate your hunger, you can't even stomach any other food. Your hunger pangs are worsened to become thrice as bad. Oh and you still feel hungry around three times a day. You don't get any enhanced vampire or ghoul abilities to go with, you're still just a normie... eh, sort of. See, you're more like a zombie and you'll get worse the longer you go without eating. You'll slowly start to loose any sense of self, any joy, any loss, those day-to-day annoyances. The only way you can continue to feel is to experience the lives of those you ate. Then you'll feel alive again

C) You have to earn every hour of your day here on this Earth. Twice over. For every hour you experience living your life, you have to spend two hours in complete sensory deprivation. In a state where you are somehow completely aware and awake but without a body. You exist but there's nothing: not in the sense of darkness but in the sense of that thing at the edge of your vision, you know? Our eyes have a visual range, that means we can only see things within a certain visual field, beyond that angle... it isn't darkness... it just isn't anything. That's what you... "see". That and a true silence. And absolutely no part of your body touching anything, feeling anything, since you don't have a body to begin with. Oh and I do mean an hour for two! As in, if you want to experience 3 continuous hours of life, you have to earn it by experiencing 6 continuous hours of nothingness. Another Oh! That time of nothingness is taken off your lifespan.

Choose!

 

Hmm... What to wish for? Oh! I want a gaydar!

Granted, you now instantly recognize the sexual orientation of anyone around you! Which makes it easy to tell that as your bane, only straight girls will flirt with you or ask you on dates. (Not devastating, as you can still ask out whoever you like.) 

I wish that I knew the best way to personalize help for anyone who needs it.

Useful for thinking of new Sanderson theories without any interruptions.

Granted, but from here on out, any help you get is unhelpful and very broad. The only way to gain information is through books. 

 

I wish for Brandon Sanderson to publish books at twice the pace he is currently.

Granted, he changes his reader base from YA to E, and never finishes the cosmere.

I wish for a soul

[Retrac he/him]

Granted you know have my friends soul. But you can't eat unless your eating with batman.

I wish for a 5:02 mile time.

[Failsafe she/her]

Granted. You are now able to run a mile between 5:02 am and 5:02 pm

My brother wishes that every time he sneezed he could summon lightning out his nose.

[Soulbinder she/her]

Granted, but every time he does, he shocks himself unconscious.

I wish someone would actually care I wrote a book enough to try it.

If you write a book, I will read it.

[Soulbinder she/her]

I did, but I haven’t got many people to actually read it. Last count was six. Five of which are family members.

[Experience he/him]

Would I be able to read it?

Granted, but they are all under the age of 10, and continue to pester you with emails every second of your life till you die. 

 

I wish for a life size cut out of Brandon Sanderson.

Sure, I could send you a link. It’s not too long (at least compared to Sanderson books).

Umm... Ok then. Granted, but the ink ran out so it's a blank piece of cardboard in the shape of Brandon Sanderson.

I wish for another dog.

Please do!

[Daneil he/him]

Granted, but your dog lacks all color and appendages. 

I wish for an autonomous robot Brandon Sanderson, that continues to make books for the rest of eternity.

I wish to create my own boon after receiving my bane.

I was ranting about this draft I wrote and then couldn’t convince very many people to read. Sorry.

Granted, your bane is that you're no longer capable of communication.

Now then, what is your boon? What's that? I can't understand you

 

I wish for a Monkey's Paw

I wish to not hate literally everything that I write.
