[WP] The demon appears in the sigil, growling. "Mortal, your soul is at stake for summoning me. What is it you desire?" You point out the window. "Can you help me get back?" The demon raises an eyebrow, following your gaze. "...Is that... Earth? Why is it getting smaller?"

[WP] "With all due respect, you programmed me to adapt to your needs. If you didn't want this, you could have limited my options. I've already notified your assistant to have breakfast and coffee waiting at the office. But until you build me an exosuit, I can't carry you there myself. Wake up."

[WP] You have a voodoo doll for everyone in your life. You keep these dolls in mint condition. And if someone has a particularly bad day, you give the doll special treatment; Washing their hair, rubbing their shoulders, and performing minor miracles to make them happy.

[WP] You are an extremely talented artist, who pretends to be a serial killer. You select a 'victim', send them off to a private resort for a month, and create a hyper-realistic crime scene at their home as a modern art installation. The police aren't happy with you, but you get commissioned often.

[WP] Your file is blacked out. Censored, drenched in ink. Even your name is blotted out. Everyone whispers about you, the one nobody knows anything about. You don't know what to tell them- An intern screwed with your paperwork, made it confidential, and nobody believes you when you try to fix it.

[WP] The fire spirit opens its eyes, disturbed from its meditation. "...Do you need something?" The invasive presence squirms uncomfortably, and takes a deep breath in. "I mean, we've known each other for a while now, s-so, um...Would you mind if I... Used you to roast marshmallows?"
