Green...snakes, emeralds, and envy. I want you to write a story or poem that is either about the things 'people, objects plus feelings' that the color brings to mind or to write a short one to three-paragraph story that is fueled by the emotion this color brings to mind.

This challenge requires you to use all of the story elements that I am going to list in a story. The main character is a bold woman in her late teens and the complementary character is a jealous woman in her late thirties. They are in a hotel. A storm suddenly blows up. The theme is about a loss of innocence. The main character is determined to get the truth.

You are washing your hands in a public restroom of a cafe when you hear a slamming sound and out from behind comes a person dressed in 1890's clothing. There is a swirling quickly disappearing orb of green light that disappears completely between blinks. You know you are the only one in the bathroom. No one was here when you came in and no came while you were there. The stride towards you, eyes wide, and ask: "Where am I?" Write a short story following this scenario and how you would respond. Not how a character would respond but how you would respond.

An agelast is a person who never laughs. Write a story about a person like this.

Write up a short story that has you and two to four of your friends actually in the story. As in you and your friends are the actual characters of the story, as if they are actually there, IRL. If you do two friends one of them has to be from your offline life and the other has to be a friend from Prose. If you do four then you have two offline friends and two Prose friends. If you are friends with people IRL who you are also friends with on here then you have to decide which category they fit in, they can't count as both. If you have questions about the challenge, message me.

What do you think about soulmates, true love, and love at first sight? Is there such as a platonic soulmate, true love, and/or love at first sight? Or just sexual, sensual and/or romantic? Do you think true love can be given to anyone and what do you think it is? Love at first sight, do you think that exists or do you think that is the only attraction at first sight? Can any above occur in person or online?

n. the realization that the plot of your life doesn’t make sense to you anymore—that although you thought you were following the arc of the story, you keep finding yourself immersed in passages you don’t understand, that don’t even seem to belong in the same genre—which requires you to go back and reread the chapters you had originally skimmed to get to the good parts, only to learn that all along you were supposed to choose your own adventure. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Write short prose or poem expressing this emotion. Regardless of which on you choose it has to be expressed within 6 to 12 sentences ( prose) or lines (prose or poem). I'll be doing four more of these challenges later. Thank you Thought Catalog for gathering these wonderful words. May the games begin! On January 28th I'm doing an Emotion: Énouement Challenge

Your friend calls you up and tells you to meet them at their house. They say they found a magic lamp and they have three wishes. You meet the genie and it's undisputably a being of magic. Your friend then precedes to wish for a new pair of shoes, an iPhone, and some hair ties. The lamp disappears once they have completed their job. What is your reaction?
