I'm sure everyone knows what to do here, but for the sake of those who don't, I'll explain.

Basically, you make a wish, and the next poster "grants" it... with a catch. For example:

Poster 1: I wish I had a Subaru.

Poster 2: Granted, but it's a used Subaru with no engine inside, only a picture of an engine. As such, it cannot be driven off the lot, and since the dealers have a dirty "no-returns" policy, it must be pushed all the way home.

Okay, now that's done, I'll start.

I wish, I wish, with all my heart, to fly with dragons in a land apart.

Certainly. But dragons are dangerous, predatory creatures - you can't go near them. And don't forget that they're endangered, and their breeding grounds are protected and not to be touched.

Your flight turns out to be a three hour drag in a bland DragonTours Airline plane, filled with fat holiday makers bickering with their families. Peering through the tiny window, you can just about make out a couple of specks on the horizon, that just _might_ be dragons. Are they? Yes, look, that little flash of light might have been it breathing fire. And that was the highlight of your trip.

All in all, not the experience you had imagined, and it cost you US$40,000.

Alright, my turn: I wish that, in the name of environmentally friendliness, all vehicles bar mine (and those of some specially selected friends) be removed from the road. Once this is done, and since they are no longer necessary, all speed restrictions can be removed, all cameras and traps decommissioned, and all traffic wardens shot.

Granted, but...

You are charged with treason to the earth and fined US$1,000,000, your cars are taken away, you go to jail for life, and your friends decide they don't like you any more.

I wish I could fly.

Granted, but...

Your flight consists of being shoved out of a Cessna 177 without you parachute, and while the trip towards earth is quite picturesque and awe-inspiring, at least the parts you saw when your eyes were not closed, the landing was not quite so amazing.

I wish I had a penguin farm.

Granted, but...

The penguins are all very territorial, and since being taken from their home land, have had many fights over where to nest, resulting in hundreds of penguins choosing your home as a nesting ground, kicking you out of your house and eating all your food. There are penguin nests in your beds, and several fights over a certain bed left one room completely demolished.

I wish I had a full library in my home.

Dreaming permits each and every one of us to be quietly and safely insane every night of our lives. William Dement

Granted. Your library, through Pratchettian L-space warping, now contains every book ever conceived, while fitting snugly into a poky spare room.

Unfortunately, this impressive list includes the complete works of Salmun Rushdie along with all fourteen Harry Potter novels. Also there are manuals and research papers detailing closely guarded military endeavors and all those scientific breakthroughs that Man is Not Ready For. Not to mention the volumes and volumes of political works, each one radical enough to make Karl Marx look like Bill Gates.

Long story short, one day you wake up to find a huge assorted mob outside your front door. It consists of, among other things, fanatic Muslims, fanatic Christians, secret agents, mad scientists and impassioned revolutionaries. They are carrying all manner of interesting weapons and are discussing amongst themselves the best way to burn down your house.

My turn again? I wish for fate, chance and narrative imperative to conspire to take me away from my humdrum life to a dramatic place of fantastical creatures and incredible sights. Here I'll probably conquer some local foe (possibly with the assistance of an attractive partner and/or talking animal) while overcoming some troubling, meaningful personal crisis in the process, and eventually I'll be returned where I started but with a new, enlightened outlook on the world.

Granted, but the books are all very very old and musty and mildewy so you have to get rid of the library.

I wish I had wings to fly with (yes, I'm obsessed with flying)

~dreams come from within, let your imagination soar~

~write, write! Because as long as we write, we live!~

Sorry, Sharky, beat you to the mark^_^

As for your wish, can you spell Icarus?

Hey, you didn't make a wish! ;_; Oh well, I'll just answer your old one. ^_^

Granted, but the problem with that is, I messed up your wish and you are not the main character. Oh well, side characters get all the cool stuff too, they just don't get as much airtime. Sorry! Bad evil genie! *slaps own hand*

I wish I were dating Gackt. (If you're thinking "Who the **** is that, this is Gackt.)

Script Frenzy 2007: Dream Mystery: PHAIL....

Scrpt Frenzy 2008: DETERMINED TO WIN!!!

Granted, but you can only see him once every six months, on Mondays, for two hours.

That is kinda evil eh?

I wish I had a laptop!

Granted, but it is the oldest working available laptop, with only the most basic programs, wordpad, paint, and a calculator, and doesn't have the ram space to add any more programs. It also has no availability to hook up to the internet.

I wish I could sing well.

Nanowrimo 07: came close, but failed

If you don't have hope, what do you have?
