Substitute DE time!

[kd7sov]

Suppose that some absolutely omnipotent entity - someone who can literally do anything they want to - comes along and offers to make one wish come true for your pup. Anything they want - except. The entity won't grant wishes for additional wishes, or that would lead directly to your pup becoming omnipotent themselves. And, of course, the entity reserves the right to interpret vague answers ("world peace", for instance) as it chooses.

What would your pup wish for?

"The entire ABBA catalog on vinyl, and a seedless watermelon from the Food Emporium in Union Square."

"What?"

"The entire ABBA catalog on vinyl, and a seedless watermelon from the Food Emporium in Union Square. I'll settle for a seedless watermelon from the Union Square Whole Foods instead if Food Emporium is out of stock."

"But- but- omnipotence! Anything you want!"

"Ghostbuster. And Babylon 5 fan. The ABBA catalog on vinyl and a seedless watermelon I don't have to wade through NYU students for. That's as far as I'm willing to trust you and I plan on making Venkman sample the watermelon first anyway."

616 Ben: The ability to turn between the Thing and human at will. He'll take the rest from there. No, make that have Johnny back or put him in Johnny's place. You never said returning someone from the dead wasn't possible.

Ult. Ben: Knee jerk is to be human again permanently. He's close to not wanting to give up the super hero biz but not quite there.

Jessica...not sure. Maybe make it so her powers never leave or get rid of that Serpent God of Fear that's making a mess of things right now. Or give her the power to do it.

Val...her reality back.

Julie...a good super hero name?

Artemus...nothing personal but no thanks. I like to take care of things myself.

Thalia would say "No" vehemently while being tempted to ask for power.

The Entity would have to keep chasing Rincewind down to try and get an answer.

Kaworu is generally the one that does that to others in Evangelion canons, so I'm stuck on this one. What would omnipotent ask omnipotent for...

Soul would want 'everything in his world that sucks fixed'. Or at least the moon to stop bleeding. Since that's the wording he would use I'm not sure that would go exactly the way he wants it to.

Haha Miharu was omnipotent except nobody let him do anything about it. He would ask to be able to take away the pain of his loved ones. Because he attempted to do that and it poisoned his soul.

Yes Maka would pretty much wish for whatever Soul wishes for to not screw up. Sorry!

Enzo would at first intend to wish that both he and Dani had the power to travel between their respective worlds directly, automatically assuming the appropriate form in the process.

Then he'd wish for a universally effective cure for nulls instead, and spend the rest of the cycle thinking himself a heel for that not being his very first thought.

And of course on my way to work Ben had to correct my answer on this one. What actually would happen would be something like Ray's answer.

"Anythin' I want?"

"That's right."

"Not interested."

"What?"

"Oh I know this one. I say somethin' like make me human and then I'll be in another reality where the FF all died because I didn't get on the rocket or the world gets eaten by Galactus my first night or you take away my relationship with Alicia as the price. No thank you. Good day."

Bobby would want something stupid and make a wish without clearly thinking it over and considering all the angles. Something like, "The ability to make Twinkies (TM) appear out of thin air whenever I'm hungry."

Rapunzel would know better than to accept such a deal, but would be tempted to ask for Alex to be with her always. (She would realize that without perfect wording and consideration, this could backfire in uncountable and horrific ways.)

KK? Hmmm. She wouldn't trust it at all and reject the offer, or waste it on something simplistic, like a warm pair of socks.

Moist would want Doc to find happiness. I mean, thanks to Cubefall, his other big wish (for the sweating problem to go away) is now a non-issue, so.

Carl is genre-savvy enough not to try; Cosmo is fulfilling his own greatest wish; Conflict Diamond is also taking matters into her own hands (though she'd be very tempted to have her little brother back - but I think she knows he went through enough hell that it wouldn't be the same); Cata and Sam both have every reason to be wary of that sort of offer; Apollo can pretty well take care of himself.

Claudia has no reason to believe that a wish coming true would be anything at all like she intended - working at the Warehouse will do that - and has also sorted out her two biggest issues to date; her brother's not stuck in limbo anymore and she has a home and family. So assuming she thought of something else, she'd make sure to pack all the stipulations in before saying it - and would more likely point out that she can probably make it happen on her own, if she wants it badly enough.

"Anything at all?"

"Pretty much yeah. No wishing for more wishes, that sort of thing."

"Voluntary shapeshift-! No wait. I'm going to have to think about this."

"Tick tock, tick tock."

"...Can I phone a friend?"

Tyler...in all honesty everyone knows what he'd really like, and that would be for his parents to accept the fact he's not superpowered, never going to be, and realize the kind of special kid he is.

However, in light of recent events in his canon.

"...you're giving me-hold on just a second here now."

"What?"

"I've lived this one already and it nearly destroyed the world, even if I don't remember it."

"......."

"...fine, if it'll make you go away and let me read my comics in peace, I wish for a bag of cheesy crisps and a big bottle of blue raspberry mountain dew."

Silly thing, I can get you the watermelon.

Can't do anything about the ABBA catalog, I'm afraid. K9 has taken a distinct dislike to the band. *shrugs helplessly*

Clem would, as always, beg for millions of dollars, at what point she would retire to a spendthrift life filled with hot men off of whom she would snort illegal substances.

Dixie would ask for either a comfortable life or a life with Brisco, depending on her canon point. She's pretty satisfied with her life, but wants to settle down.

Jules would wish for Shawn and Lassiter to get along. It'd make her life easier.
