openFolk story about evil wizard miller Literature
I read on Tv Tropes or Wikipedia about folk story where there was a mill no one went to (and i think it said nobody who did go returned), whose miller did some kind of dark magic or he might've been a demon or the devil. I don't remember if the hero was male or female, but the miller propably died at the end somehow.
I vould have sworn the title was "The Black Mill", but i can't find anything by that name...
Edited by NukeliopenStory where a male hero rapes a female villain
There was some story, I can't remember if it was a novel or a movie or some other type of media. The key thing that sticks out to me was that at some point in the story, possibly the end, the male hero rapes a female villain. I can't remember if the story portrays it as triumphant or more negative and visceral, but the key thing I remember is that the victim was a female villain and the perpetrator was a male hero.
openAnimated? Scene of someone with healing magic that sprouts leaves on the wound
Its a scene where someone is injured with like a gash on their arm or leg. They are approached by someone who casts a spell that grows leaves over the wound. I think the injured person freaks out, startling the spell caster. But when they check the wound again the leaves wilt and underneath the wound is fully healed.
I looked at Heal It with Nature but it didn't jog my memory. It could be from The Owl House or The Legend of Vox Machina but it could well be something else?
openvampire as special forces weapon Web Original
hi folks, i'm looking for a series of original fiction short stories, that i found posted on a forum i now can't remember the name of and read some time around 2015-18. as i recall, it was about an army medic who was violently turned into a vampire, and was then used as a living weapon by the US military and placed with a special forces strike team. the vampire was sentient but very much treated like an animal by the military — i seem to remember a collar or muzzle being involved? — and most of the stories were about his relationships with the strike team members. pretty sure it was explicit, or at least on the boundary. any help very much appreciated before i drive myself insane trying to search for it. thanks!

There was a film I remember but I can't find, I have no idea what the rest of the film was about

openZelda Webcomic about the Kakariko well. Webcomic
I remember reading a webcomic that was about the well in kakariko village in the Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. It had Link ranting about how there are rotting zombies and other horrifying things in the village's water supply. The cucoo lady stares at Link as he runs away, then bites the head off a cucoo. I thought it was Awkward Zombie, but I can't find it, and Google being the ai cesspool it is not, googling it didn't help.
openAsymmetric coop game Videogame
I'm not looking for any one game in particular, but just any game with a particular concept I've been thinking of.
The gist revolves around the main feature; where the two characters are at vastly different scales. So one person could be normal size, while another would be gigantic. Or alternatively, the "normal" one is the larger of the two, while the second one is tiny.
openAnti-drug rap song circa 1989 Music
- Heard it on a cassette tape probably around 1988 - 1991
- Anti-drug rap song to keep kids off drugs
- A single male rapper is all I remember
- I remember some specific lyrics (might not be correct, my memory isn't perfect!)
- "You can soar like a hawk, fly like an eagle ... [something something] is just not legal"
- "[something something something], smoking dope ain't cool. Sticking something up your nose, you're lookin like a fool"
- I tried searching the web for these lyrics and I can't find it. There are more anti-drug raps from this era than I expected so I appreciate any help!
openBlue robot woman Anime
I have this gif of a blonde-haired, blue-skinned gynoid in a torn pink dress glitching out as she's got laser sights trained on her. Then she springs a leak out of wrecked part of her. Looks like it could be from the early 1990s. Any ideas?
openAPP Looking for a “Spooky” game Videogame
Hi, I’m looking for a game that I discovered via this wiki. Here is what I can (possibly vaguely) remember…
1) One of the locations is set in an abandoned (and possibly also spooky) school
2) You investigate the disappearance (and possible murder) of two young kids when the Protagonist was (possibly) also a student at said school.
3) I believe that you can see and possibly communicate with the spirits of said missing kids. I think a walkie-talkie is involved with communicating with them as well.
4) There is also a gravesite as well with the possible implication being that one of said students is buried there.
5) The killer is implied to be your father (who was possibly the janitor of the school) who was distant towards you.
5) The game has featureless characters, similar to Project: Zomboid and was released sometime in the 2010’s (I think)
6) Meta-wise, the work page also has a character page as well.
Can someone please help put me out of my misery and identify this game for me…?

openFurry movie
I had this on my DVR for a month, but when I finally decided to watch it, the thing died, and now I can't remember the name of the film.
It was a 3D animated movie with a similar art style to Alpha and Omega, except the characters were anthropomorphic, and one of the female characters had blue fur, while the males had more realistic shades like brown and grey. The premise, if I recall correctly was that a warring clan was trying to take over the hero's clan, and the hero had to prevent that, though I'm starting to think that was either the sequel, or a conflation from a different movie.
