#writever Remembered
'How could I not have remembered,' said the Dragon.
'Ten years ago this very day,' said the Knight.
'At least,' said the Princess, "the beating I gave you both will have taught you not to meddle in women's affairs."
#writever Consume
Wizards accumulate Mana within themselves for the day they need it, and in the meantime, let it consume them.
Witches only keep with themselves enough Mana for the near future. This gives them more longevity.

#writever Reminiscent
'I may find myself in a reminiscent state,' said R42. 'Indeed, I must regularly transfer some memories onto an external medium; therefore sometimes, I retain only partial information, which I will have to restore later."

#writever Ruin
‘Had the King built his castle *with the help* of Mana, I would have had to use Mana to destroy it too,’ said Elena the Curious. ‘But he built it *out of* Mana. I just had to remove the Mana for the Castle to fall into a ruin.’

#writever Suspendu
Ormaz the Circuitous had devised and executed a spell which would stop time. What he hadn't realized is, it would stop only for him, and leave him trapped for all eternity in this hanging moment.

#writever Esseulé
'I am a telepath. I can read thoughts from ten yards away, emotions from a hundred yards, detect a conscience a mile away, a presence ten miles away... I *dream* of feeling lonely.'

#PennedPossibilities 760 — MC POV: Describe who you are in your group of friends. Tell is if you’re the motherly / fatherly type, the funny friend, the serious one, etc.
Friends, Friendship. Teammates. Buddies. Partners in crime†. Frankly, I don't get it. I do the job and make sure everybody comes back. I train them until they drop in a sweaty heap, but then they insist on group meals and singing, that stuff, and won't let me pay. Sure I have everybody's back in a fight, or with clients, or the boss, but that's the right thing to do. I am responsible for them. They ask me for advice, too. Sometime weird. I ended up punching the cheating husband when he made a pass at me, which was actually sort of fun. At times they won't leave me along to be quiet with my books, which is really all I want out of life. I am really the wrong person to ask such a question to.

† Literally.
