Sorry for taking a while to respond! I like the ticket giver one, the "They That X" one (makes me think of medieval bestiaries, which I'm really interested in, history nerd that I am), and the one about timbre skeletons of houses the best. The last one I mentioned makes me think of when my sister and I were little and my dad would take us through half-constructed houses when no workers were around to show us how they were made. That was really fun. The last one, about Death, sounds fun, but it might be a little too similar to Death Note.
ReplyDeleteNo worries; I took even longer to respond! Haha...
ReplyDeleteYeah, my aunt and uncle are building a new house, and I was surprised how inspiring (albeit unspecifically) walking around the timbers was.
Hmm, I hadn't thought about that with Death. We'll see if any other ideas mix with this to make it more original.
