Push, the rewards outweigh the risks.

Your video Game/Novel/TV show/Movie/Manga idea gets made and is a smash hit.

But

The fanbase around it suffers frequently from Broken Base,Misaimed Fandom, and Fan Myopia.

Push. I love the idea of having my characters on-screen!

You get to do whatever you feel like doing weekly

BUT

You have your core memories wiped out regularly at the end of each day.

Push. Considering it's Sinon, I got a feeling she'd do it anyways. Keeping out of sight would keep my life expectancy up, at least.


You get to unfuck one past moment in the IRL or In-Universe history of a franchise you like

BUT

You must massively fuck over any unannounced future entries past the newest at the time.

Push. I'd fix one of the things in House of Anubis that drive me crazy. That show ain't coming back, so I'm not worried about the future.


You get to live in any fictional world of your choosing, and you have complete immortality no matter what sort of universe it is.

BUT

If you try to help any character do anything, or otherwise change the plot in any way, your immortality is revoked, and you and that character will die.

Not pushing. What's the point of living in the same world as Caitlin Snow if I can't help her with anything.


You enter the fictional world of your choosing,

BUT

You are in the body of your least favorite character from that work. Harry Potter fans, enjoy being Umbridge.

No push. I don’t wanna be the female Dr Light.

You have fire powers that are controllable!

But

They are only small flames and take a lot of energy to be formed.

You will find yourself on your favourite game show.

BUT

It is a game show that appeared or mentioned in Bad Wolf.

#2490: Oct 27th 2019 at 3:28:10 PM

No push. I don't even watch game shows, so I'd be getting killed for nothing.


Your waifu/husbando becomes real.

BUT

They want nothing to do with you.

No thanks, if she isn't interested in me at all then I'd just be unleashing an overpowered serial killer into the world for no reason.

You get 1 million dollars.

BUT

It's in the form of pennies.

Well, that’d be jus’ a waste. Why would ya want to deprive the world of such anomaly as yourself?

you can play guitar

BUT

only with your tongue and can only play Irish folk.

KingOfStickers Since: Jul, 2014
#2495: Oct 28th 2019 at 4:00:37 AM

No. I can already play the guitar. Badly, yes, but playing it with my tongue seems like an incredibly bad idea if you know that plucking guitar strings hurt your fingers after a while. Cutting your tongue on a string while it aches at the same time???? Noooo thank you.

You get isekai'd into the anime world

BUT

You find out that all of the "dere" Waifus and Husbandos such as yanderes and tsunderes arent as fun to be with as you originally thought.

[up]x2 Hard pass, there. Being a Stock Shōnen Hero doesn’t really appeal to me, especially given that the amount of anime I’ve even watched (and enjoyed) is rather small, and I’m not in the business of lusting after any characters in any of the ones I have seen, so.

[up] Despite not really being one for Celtic punk I’d probably press it just for the benefits of not having to worry about my damn Circadian rhythms. Keeping myself from inverting my schedule completely is a Herculean challenge, and if the Murphys are my solution, so be it.


A story you’ve written gets a big-budget adaptation for theaters and gets tons of positive buzz from film festivals and fans

but

it ends up tanking at the box office, overshadowed by the Mouse’s latest live-action remake or whatever

[up][up] Oh fuck no.

[up] push the button. It may tank at the box office but hopefully my name will spread across those indie fests enough that a studio will eventually take notice.


You can perform D&D style magic

BUT

At the cost of having your immune system weakened for a week after using said magic.

#2499: Oct 28th 2019 at 5:23:52 AM

Eh, it's not like I can become more of a clean freak than I already am, the side effects probably won't be that horrible. Push.

You can perform D&D style rolls to increase the success of any of your actions in real life.

BUT

Most of them are crit fails.

Well, that’d be jus’ a waste. Why would ya want to deprive the world of such anomaly as yourself?
KingOfStickers Since: Jul, 2014
#2500: Oct 28th 2019 at 5:33:47 AM

Yeah, I'd push it. It would make the situation much more funnier if I ever did roll a crit success.

You get sent to the D&D world and get to go on awesome adventures with your friends

BUT

You start at Level 1 and your character stats are completely randomized. Including your cantrips, race, etc.
