human kills monster who's in love with her

Monster falls in love with human. Human kills monster. The villagers rejoice. The end.

You can make it a tragedy, or a drama, or I'm thinking a parody...(*coughvampirescough*) Whatever you want.

the last refuge from man-eating monsters

The City of [name] is different from its contemporaries in a few ways: it is bigger than any other city, and it houses every living thing currently in existence. Drow (Dark Elves), Dragons, Orcs, Humans, Dwarves, Fairies, Man-Eating Plants...whatever. It has them all. It is virtually self-sustaining, and is surrounded by a massive wall that is like the Great Wall of China on steroids. But why is it like that? The answer lies in what is outside the walls... The Locust.

The Locust are bug-like monsters that eat everything, except other Locust. They've consumed everything except that which lives in the walled City. And now, the Grand Army of the City is all that stands between the people of City and the monsters outside. But are there really monsters outside, or is it just propaganda fostered by the Grand Army to maintain a "Siege Mentality" to ensure the continued support of the massive population? Are they really keeping people from the walls for their own safety, or is it an elaborate hoax to maintain control? One brave MC is about to find out...

Alter as you see fit, but please give me credit for the idea; nothing fancy, even a simple "thank-you" would do.

P.S. Information on Siege Mentality (Or Perpetual Warfare, if you want to include aspects of that) can be found here:

Worth (dystopian plot)

All I've got to go on is one sentence: What is the price of life?

I'm imaging a futuristic society (dystopian, obviously) where murder is legal, so long as it's done by a paid assassin and only with magic...

Let me know if you take it, I'd love to read what you can do with this!

The Girl From the Hartz Mountains

This is based on a song:

The story of a young girl who lived in the Hartz Mountains. She had given up her life to save her lover's soul. When he died, his spirit met hers in the air. Then, in the last verse, he jilted her spirit, and went on with another spirit.

I'm not quite sure of the details, but it was a very sad song. (I'm not even sure if it's a real song, or a song from a story.)

a gift-curse

Here's a plot-inducer, more than anything.

You character has been cursed (somehow), but that curse doubles as a gift.

For example, if they can see into the future, then for every time they use their Sight, they forget a memory of the past.

Or if your character can heal rapidly, then they start to lose feeling in the injured area. Eventually, they can't feel any part of their body. This would be really sad in a novel with romance. Sex just wouldn't be fun.

Or possibly, your character is gifted with fire-manipulation, and then maybe any kind of cold will have them unconscious (for how long depends on how cold it is, and how long they're exposed to it).

Whatever plot you throw your character in should put them in a situation where they have to use their gift alot, and get to the point where they must decide whether its worth having their gift if all they end up doing is losing a part of themselves.

when making a wish, be very specific

FMC is 6 years old, and all she wants to do is read. Unfortunately, that's the one thing she can't do. Her eyesight may be the worst the world has seen. Her glasses will somewhat help her see far away, but nothing has been found to help her read. Her older sister reads out loud to her as often as she can.

So when she accidentally releases a genie, she wishes that she had the best sight ever. As all genies do, he doesn't do exactly what she had in mind. Now she has x-ray and infrared vision, can see even the smallest details, even in the dark (think fine print on the other side of a room), and sees colors that no one knew existed. Without a second thought, she tells her kindergarden class about what happened the following morning.

People without reflections

MC1 is heading somewhere when she runs into MC2, literally. MC2 looks at MC1 and then freaks out about bumping into her but runs away before she can catch him. A few minutes later, MC1 is walking across a crosswalk and a car speeds right in front of her.

Later that day, MC1 is for some reason in front of a mirror and she has no reflection. Naturally she panics. A few days later she has become a major paranoid person, avoiding mirror at all cost. Then she meets MC2 and realizes somehow that he doesn't have a reflection either. She confronts him about it and he explains that on the other side of the mirror is an alternate universe that does the exact same thing as ours all the time. For some reason though, one person once did something different and their counterpart across the mirror died. After that, they had no reflection. When they interacted and stopped a person from dying when they were supposed to, that person ended up like them. It continued a lot, and everything was figured out so they would continue to save people's lives and they would join the ranks of the reflectionless people. Eventually, there was a fight about whether they should keep turning more people like them or not, and the group split into two. Now the one group continued to try to turn people into their situation and the other tries to prevent that.
