[WP] You are a house painter who has been doing this job for a long time. When you’re wrapping up the latest site, the client comes by and is surprised and delighted by the mural you painted on their house. You didn’t paint a mural. Even now, as you look at the house, all you can see is white.

[WP] You saved the wasp queen’s life. She isn’t grateful for it— she is, after all, a wasp— but decides you are the perfect person to look after her child during the winter. You are now an honorary wasp princess.

[WP] You are a sweet, if overly chatty person who adored talking about your pet, your grandkids, and your vacations. The people polite enough to sit through the stories are horrified by the photos. You don’t know why— Yc'tha’vhen is a sweet boy, and the Dread Plains are lovely this summer.
