Scattered Ambitions
4,000 club
Just a collection place for any writing prompts you aren't going to use. I've got three. I'm pretty sure they're no good, but here goes.
Person A gets up very early for work. They don’t usually, but this morning they have to. They find that person B is not in bed. In fact, they aren’t in the house. The car is gone, but all of person B’s stuff is still in the house. Phone, backpack, clothing, etc. There is no sign of a struggle, but the shovel is missing from the shed. Long story short, person A finds person B burying the body of someone they’ve killed. Optional side thing: Long story short, person A finds person B burying the body of someone they’ve killed in the middle of a field of people they’ve killed. (So person B is either a one time killer, or a serial killer.)
Everyone in a novel knows they’re characters in a book. Everyone knows who the love interests are, the main characters, the villain. There’s also a soulmate aspect, so you know who your soulmate is when you meet them. So, a side character, the kind that only has one function in the story which is usually to give the protagonist directions or some bullshit like that, knows their soulmate is the main antagonist. They reject the idea. They learn to hate the antagonist, even though they’ve never met. They’re made fun of by everyone because they fall in love with a villain. Not just any villain, the big bad guy. They try to avoid any and all circumstances that would lead to meeting the antagonist, but it happens anyway. They actively hate the person after they realise that it’s their soulmate. They’re mean to them, ignore them, etc. But the story keeps shoving them together, and they do fall in love. And the antagonist could be the hero, in another book. They’re basically just a misguided hero. So they and their soulmate, (who in this story is, ironically, the main character,) make a plan and literally escape the book.
A deranged narrator goes around killing people because he “is the author and can kill whoever the fuck he wants”
He: refers to people by their characters names, devices elaborate scenarios and then tricks people into acting them out, kills children’s parent or parents to add to their backstory
He is killed by someone at the end of the story and everyone is happy, no one misses him and he doesn’t get a funeral or a grave.
At the start of the story, people refer to him by name but do this less and less as the story goes on.
On a side note, I'm writing a story about space mermaids.
