Writing Prompts

1. “You’re asking me about math? You must be desperate.”

2. “What? You think all vampires have capes? I mean, I have a collection of them but there is no need to call me out like this.”

3. “Good luck on your plans! Call me when they go to shit!”

4. “Where was I? I was doing what any humane person would be doing. I was making jello in this time of crisis.”

5. “I resurrected a T-Rex. So, there’s that.”

6. “Who here wants to cause a ruckus with me? I’ll start.”

7. “I’m glad you’re not dead but also, I hate you.”

8. “You bought me brass knuckles? That’s so romantic.”

9. “I died again?! That’s the third time today! Why are these mortals so fragile?”

10. “Am I here to start some tomfoolery or here to bring peace? Who knows? The only thing I know is that these finger sandwiches are awful.”
