what is it your heart desires?

[mememart]

the WISHING WELL meme

Everyone has at least heard of wishing wells mentioned in old tales and legends. Toss a coin, make a wish, and the magical waters will grant whatever you ask for. Sounds too good to be true, doesn't it? Well whether or not you're a believer, it seems today has turned out to be your lucky day.

How to Play -

1. Post with your character. Include their greatest desires and/or what they would wish for if given the chance, no matter how big, small, silly, serious, mundane, etc.
2. Others reply with their character to make said wishes come true! Or to join them along for the ride. Whichever fits.
3. Don't be disheartened if it turns out to be a disappointment. Was the date you wanted a total slob? Finally got that vacation but it rained the entire time? Maybe there's a silver lining there somewhere.
4. Whatever happens, just remember to make the most of it while the magic lasts!

I wish I could do some good in the world despite everything I've done, however small.

[adpacempertyrannidem]

I think we can. There's more than one kind of power. Even without followers...there's still a lot we can do.

Glit | Transformers IDW (AU) | OTA

[glitterdoc]

I wish I didn't have to get drunk or submit to shadowplay to forget some of the things I've seen.

Even though they probably honestly deserve to be remembered.

[eumenis]

Can't fix that for you, but I can relate.

[The human woman sits on the edge of the well and peers down into it thoughtfully. It never occurred to her to wish on water before, just to drink it.] That's why I keep busy, I guess. To keep the worst memories in the past.

[somekindofspaceuncle]

I wish I could become the person my... fiancée? and my friends see when they look at me. I think that's my potential. I'll try.

[itmeanstruth]

Gonna go out on a limb here, but pretty sure you already are.

Toi Kuji | Sarazanmai

[kappalinquent]

I wish I could help my brother finally find happiness.

[bedlams_bard]

Some people would say you're wasting your wish, making it for someone else's happiness.

[But he'd been about to drop his coin in and do something similar, for two of his exes who were about to have their first child together.]

Ziggy Stardust |The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust

[ziggyplayedguitar]

I wish humans listened to people who want a better world instead of trying to destroy and kill them.

[glitterdoc]

I wish Cybertronians did that, too.

Naito Eiji 👿 OC

[onceandfuturemaou]

I wish I was the demon lord!

Buzzsaw | Transformers IDW/G1

[yellowblurred]

I wish more people appreciated good art.

[devilsphoenix]

I do too, though art is very subjective. What do you consider good art?

[apocalypsejack]

I wish there was something left of who I am so I could know who I am.. or was.

Balthazar | Supernatural | ota

[angelic_asshole]

I wish I could end my lover's suffering and all of those who live upon his world. That the Ministry of Truth never existed.

[chiaro_oscuro]

There are plenty of troubled worlds out there and people who seek refuge from them.

You'll find plenty of people like that in the Nexus. Some are generally peaceful, like the fallen angels, and others, like the Eliksni, are distrustful. Some are both.

What is this Ministry?

Kishin Asura ΦΦΦ Soul Eater

[strongestcoward]

I wish whoever is eavesdropping on me get their eardrums perforated.

[painfulsmile]

What a... unique wish!

Katara | Avatar The Last Airbender

[waterbendingmaster]

I wish... to be taken care of for once.

[painfulsmile]

[ Sorry, Katara. She's a pearl and sometimes she can't help but fall back into her more helpful nature. She holds out her hand with a smile! ]

I am no wishing well, but your wish is now granted!

Duo Maxwell | Gundam Wing | M/M

[deathsangel]

I wish for a family.

Stiles Stilinski | Teen Wolf | M/M

[runningwithwolves]

I wish for a Dom to fill my desires.

[dontpetmeibite]

I'm no dominant--far from it. But I think I can help you get your wish.

It's difficult for even the best of dominants to fulfil your desires if you don't make them known, somehow. Even here, at the wishing well, you haven't asked for anything specific.

aisling o'shea 🪓 original 🪓 ota

[dicheannadh]

( She doesn't know specifically how a well is supposed to grant wishes, but then, she doesn't have a leg to stand on when it comes to believing in things that shouldn't be possible. )

...I suppose, I've wondered...I wish I knew if I'll ever die.

[gunslingerqueen]

What would you do with either answer, though?

[There's a curious head tilt and, getting the sense that she didn't pose her question well enough, Nariko tries again.]

As in, whether you know for sure or not, how does it change the way you live in the present?

Maria Hill | MCU

[standardprocedure]

I wish Thanos never existed.

[coldsong]

[Well, this is probably not the empathy you were looking for, but...]

Seconded. Most heartily. [That may be a golden coin he's flicking into the wishing well, or it may just be an illusion.]

Pink Pearl (Volleyball) | Steven Universe | ota

[painfulsmile]

Oh how delightful! I wish to find someone who would enjoy juggling with me.

[starfishtsunami]

Ooo. What are we juggling?

Ragnor Fell | The Shadowhunter Chronicles

[unfriendlygreen]

Please, I recognize Fae mischief when I see it.

Saya Masaki | Neon Sign Amber

[gyaruo]

I wish I could find someone cute.

[ No...actually, finding cute girls is pretty easy. Letting them down even moreso. Before he actually tosses the coin though, he says very, very quietly: ] I wish I was normal.

[ With that, he tosses the coin in and immediately feels a little embarrassed at his own admission there, even if it was almost under his breath. ] Agh, this is dumb...

[bundere]

You must really be desperate if you're making desperate wishes like that.

[Minato leaned against the well with a faint hummm. ]

Mito Minato | Therapy Game

[bundere]

[ A part of him really really really wants to wish 'I wish that brat with my brother would disappear', but on the off chance it actually comes true... he knows he'd feel guilty.

With a heavy sigh, he tosses a coin. ]

I wish my for something exciting.

[snakebusiness]

(( ooc: I'm sorry if this is the dumbest thing... ))


[Did someone ask for something exciting? Would it be exciting if a snake nearby suddenly turned into a man? Maybe. Maybe not. But it actually happens about a moment later of that wish. A strange sound and then a purple smoke, very theatric, but where once a snake rested now stands a naked man.

Thank god Ayame's clothes are actually nearby, just behind the well, so he can protect some of his dignity as he leaps to get them.

Though that doesn't stop him to small talk, nope. So he does that as he puts his clothes on as if what just happened was the most natural thing.]

Oh my, what unfortunate timing~! Please believe me, I did not intend to eavesdrop, yet I absolutely must express how pained I feel over your wish~! To be so bored that you ask the gods for aid, ah, my heart just breaks!

Nariko Lunae ☄ original ☄ OTA

[gunslingerqueen]

I wish ...

[Things like this never work, or at minimum there's always some kind of fine print that you should really look out for, but she kind of can't help herself. That, and it's weird how the answer isn't as easy as she'd thought it might be.]

... That I could feel that sense of 'home', again.

[Yeah, it's asking a bit much! But in goes the coin.]

[malibu_farmboy]

Well...there's no need to rush these things, but as long as the mood lasts, can we take it one night spent at my place at a time?

akemi morishita | original

[cupidite]

I wish I was three inches taller.

[ ... ]

And that I had ten boyfriends.

[bundere]

[ P-pfft ]

You decided to go all or nothing, huh?

Kylo Ren/Brianna Solo • r63!Star Wars

[umbraeternam]

[ Surely this was meant for children, or people who hadn't seen a fraction of what she had throughout her life. Yet... ]

I wish...

[ Brianna gazes down at the water, oddly clear, and frowns.

There were many things she might wish for. To wish that different decisions had been made, by herself and others. To wish she'd been given the truth far more often than lies. To wish she hadn't been cursed with a power she never asked for, responsibilities and legacies she would have rather had no part of. To wish for a break from the loneliness and isolation. To wish to see her father again. ]

Kyp Durron | Star Wars Expanded Universe

[rogue_jedi]

[Kyp Durron has caused a lot of harm to the galaxy, and he has a lot he would wish for - that he'd never met Exar Kun, or wielded the Sun Crusher, or destroyed the Carida system and its people. He doesn't know what to wish for.

But he misses Zeth, his older brother who he'd killed in his misguided rampage, and the one he tries to honor as best he can.]

I wish I could see my brother one last time. That things hadn't ended the way they did.

[forceshadowed]

[ From one sibling who's lost a brother to another: ]

Perhaps the Force will let you catch a glimpse of him.

[ As Anakin had come to her in Coruscant. Although, was it really Ani? How desperately had she wanted to believe, then, that it had been nothing more than a hallucination? ]

Silvermist | Disney Fairies

I wish that everyone could have one moment of pure bliss every day.

[fastflier]

Yeeesh, laying it on a little thick there aren't you?

I wish, someday my prince will come!

[chiaro_oscuro]

I'm not your prince, exactly, but I am a prince.
