"You have tampered in the Gods' domain!" the god shouted."Well, maybe, but you gods tamper in the human domain all the time!""That's... That's different!""How?""We are Gods! It's what we do!""And we are human. Likewise.""I..." The god sighed. "Fair. But keep it quiet, okay?"#MicroFiction #TootFic #SmallStories

@dianaprobst Hah! Very good

The artificier pulled a lever."It's active."The device looked like a doorway, a slight shimmer in the opening. The artificier stepped through. "Nothing happened," the apprentice said. "I already am who I am. If you step through, you'll turn into who you are.""May I?""I built it for you."#MicroFiction #TootFic #SmallStories

The shieldmaiden raised a tankard to the battered knight. "Dragon got the better of you? Told you.""I'd like to see you do better!""Sure!"She emptied her tankard, rode out, and soon returned with the princess."How?""First, make sure the princess wants to be rescued-""But-""-by you."#MicroFiction #TootFic #SmallStories

@MicroSFF so basically the opposite of Mr. Tur Tur? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Button_and_Luke_the_Engine_Driver

The sphinx stirred."Halt! If you seek to pass, you must solve my riddle, or I will kill you!"The wanderer skulking in the sphinx' shadow froze in place. "Riddless? It wishess to play a game of riddless? We know riddless, we do, my preciouss, we do!"#TootFic #MicroFiction #FanFic

@jamey Hopefully the mage won't try to put some more meat on the party's bones...

The swordmaster didn't do graduation ceremonies, but when you were ready, you'd be given a sword.They got theirs on the same day; they hugged and kissed each other."Get out," the swordmaster said, smiling at the two women."Yes! We can kiss in public, we have swords!""Why would you-""Yes!"#MicroFiction #TootFic #SmallStories

@MisterWanko…in a language where milliards exist.@MicroSFF

@mjd I suppose it matters a lot how long it takes. If the mage just makes a ritual gesture and the soldier's arm is restored instantly, that's a different situation from the soldier is invalided for six months while medics working full-time grow their arm back. The army would have more incentive to prevent soldiers from losing arms in the second case.

@chazh @MicroSFF I would recommend a tv show called 《the Boys》, it helps in discussing the gray area of heroism.

They looked at the burnt mess. "Cross 'Cheese slicer' off the list.""I'm not terribly surprised.""Me neither, but it's best to be methodical. What's next?""Er... Saber? Is that how it's spelled?""'I think so? 'Light saber' sounds more feasible than 'light cheese slicer'. Let's build one!"#MicroFiction #TootFic #SmallStories

@MicroSFF He did! Hopefully he doesn't feel his artistic career peaked at that point. 😹

A construction worker was asked his thoughts on AI in 2035 during a vox populi with a reporter.He answered back, “I love AI. I can’t encourage it more.”The reporter looked horrified. “But hasn’t AI in SCADA systems resulted in billions in reconstruction costs after it made disastrous decisions?”The worker leaned on his shovel and smirked. “Exactly. Business is booming.”#microfiction

@MicroSFF oh shit i sure hope our ignorants don't screw this up.

He could never remember them both. Some days, the princess - eyes and hair lustrous and dark, soft voice pleading with him to leave - was clear in his mind. Some days the dragon - eyes and scales lustrous and bright, broken voice pleading for mercy.One or the other; he couldn't remember both.#MicroFiction #TootFic #SmallStories #SaintGeorgesDay

@TomF @MicroSFF doesn't need an alien to get confused by that one

@MicroSFF ::chef's kiss::

@MicroSFF Well played, witch, well played!
