[WP] You are Low-Key, the Norse God of really subtle mischief.	A smile creaked across my face as I heard a dull thud. "WHY THE FUCK DOES THIS KEEP HAPPENING?!" boomed from the living room.

[WP] Two years ago the sun winked out, utterly without warning. You are a member of one of the last human settlements on earth, huddled around a geothermal vent in Iceland. This morning, again without warning, the Sun rose.	Day seven-hundred fifty-three post-sun. Andri did not wake up this morning. That brings our numbers down to nineteen. Five children, thirteen adults, and one stubborn elder. We will take care of Andri’s body after breakfast. In life, he told stories of a glorious future still to come; in death, he will fertilize our cr...	Everyone in the settlement watches in amazement as the Sun rises. There are a dozen of us looking directly at the sun. Suddenly a woman starts screaming in agony. I have an incredible rush of pain to my head and face and my eyes start to burn. All of us in the settlement are blinded by the sunlight.	{"chosen_upvotes":1588,"rejected_upvotes":29,"upvote_margin":1559}

Jesse replies while pushing the shovel in for another scoop. This answ...	{"chosen_upvotes":874,"rejected_upvotes":16,"upvote_margin":858}
[WP] "There's no need to apologize for all the warfare, humans weren't built for peace. We should know, we made you. And we made you to fight. Which is actually why we've come to Earth again. It's time for the draft."	First contact did not go quite as expected. Brilliantly coloured ships dropped out of the sky unannounced early one morning just off the coast of North Carolina. They were so massive that even the horizon was dwarfed by their presence. The ships were adorned with symbols and runes from cultures all over the world. They...	"This is channel 7 News, I'm John Stanley. Tonight's big story - the first pick of the alien gladiatorial draft was tonight. After some speculation from sport analysis the first pick from our species was projected to be Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson. Instead, as perhaps the greatest surprise in human history, Supreme...	{"chosen_upvotes":296,"rejected_upvotes":85,"upvote_margin":211}
