Monkey's Paw

[singleMBucks]

(spam and eggs would be a good cooked brekky too !!)

Granted... A large box duly arrives... a new jigsaw...

... the London Underground! The coloured train lines take you an hour... all the plain white takes a month and a half !! ;-)

I wish to be a jigsaw designer... (I've seen a few pics on here that would be awesome jigsaws!!)

 

[Enigma47]

Granted. Your new jigsaw designing role is generating multiple 4 to 9 piece jigsaws all for under 5-year-olds based on pink fluffy unicorns (yes you read that right)

I wish there was more mystery in life sometimes

 

[singleMBucks]

Granted... Your world becomes shrouded in mystery, everything becomes mysterious, even the most simple things seem mystic ... your ethereal presence freaks people out... to them mystery is history...

I wish I had more cheese on toast... needed that ! ;-)

 

[singleMBucks]

granted...it is hosted by Donald Trump.

Re: the tea...I was completely lost in the little scene, beautifully painted...oh the auditory joy of listening to tea being made in the other room...and letting it go cold...the tragedy of it all. *sips her cold tea* *gags a little* *wipes a tear*

I wish I had a stapler

Thought of this today... following the tea thread...

 

[Enigma47]

Granted...and it never sleeps, so soon everything in your house is neatly stapled down and can’t move (shades of the sorcerers apprentice!)....

I wish I had a sunset, a bottle of red Australian Shiraz and someone to listen to...

 

[Firefly]

the cheese on toast...staples things down...*shurgs* it could happen...that would be some pretty freaky cheese on toast.

Thread: Done. Wine. Sunset. Someone lovely to listen to. Upon finishing the bottle, your world will plunge into darkness as your eyes fail and your ears fill with silence. Blindness and deafness consume you as you consumed your lovely Shiraz.

I wish I had a pool, and a hot pool boy to watch cleaning it.

 

[singleMBucks]

Granted... the glistening blue pool shimmers in your yard, sparklingly clear and fresh, having just been cleaned by the handsome pool boy in the noon-day sun... sweat cascades from him... you take pity, pay him, and give him both a cold drink and the afternoon off! He has got so hot out in the sun... but still runs off to play with his friends... he's twelve !

I wish fire-doors weren't so heavy !!

 

[Firefly]

Granted. New technology has seen the development of feather-lyte™ steel. You no longer have to worry about heavy fire doors. You do however have to worry about they pyromaniac who keeps setting your building on fire.

I wish my toys would stop playing hide and seek.

 

[third_born_sun]

Granted, but they only come out at weekends

I wish I could go outside

 

[Firefly]

Granted. You are now on parole. (No more murdering, m'kay)

I wish I could see the sun and the moon dance hand in hand across the sky.

 

[singleMBucks]

Granted... Terry Gilliam pops round and sketches you an animation of Sun and Moon and dancing... it's a mind-blowing experience watching your wish come to life... but he drinks all your tea, and there is uncomfortable farting !

I wish I could listen to all the music I want to, all the time...

 

[Firefly]

Granted...some Bose earphones and an unlimited Apple Music account. But first you have to guess the password.

I wish I was floating on a lake at the moment.

 

[singleMBucks]

Granted... the glow of the sun warms you as you float, the ripple of water against your ears, weightless and effortless, watching clouds drift past or are you drifting past them? A serene moment in nature... someone brings a jet-ski...

I wish there was time for all this... :-(

 

[Enigma47]

Granted; and the world’s stopped turning and you have all the time you need.....but only to do exactly what you’re doing now and nothing else.....
I wish that perseverance delivered more than just blind luck does

 

[Firefly]

Granted...no more blind luck.
I wish I was a pilot

 

[singleMBucks]

Granted... "Pilot of the airwaves, here is my request, you don't have to play it, but I hope you'll do your best..."

I wish I had a boat, a sail, and a fair breeze....

 

[Enigma47]

Granted, although you’ll find the little toy sailing boat gets blown to one side of the park pond very quickly (and repetitively)
I wish I had more time to settle down and think a while.....

 

[singleMBucks]

Granted, 10 seconds should do it... 9...8...7...

I wish I had some dessert...

 

[Firefly]

One cream tart. With one long curly hair in it. Enjoy.

I wish I had a deck of cards and someone to play with

 

[singleMBucks]

...who's hair ? ;-)

Granted... Ryan Reynolds pops over, in character from his role in Mississippi Grind. You have a lovely evening... the cards are dealt, the games are played... he has been in character all evening, but you have broken him down a little, got through his guard, things are heating up and you are starting to purrr... but he fleeces you and takes all the cash!

I wish I had a Nightflight to Venus...
