The #impact of the sword in her gut was so slight that she didn't even feel the pain for a moment, just a sharp, searing heat. Steam hissed as her flesh quenched the blade.
"Ah, yes, this is a good one," the smith said, smiling.
"Will she live?"
"Maybe. Who cares?"

Inspiration: impact
Potential: high
Notes: She does live, maybe because the person who asked cared enough to try and save her. And she does have a weird magical link to this evil (well, it's forged that way, at least) sword, which would complicate some things.

When arriving in a new town, I always go to the churches and listen for the differences in their #dogma first thing. They've got a stake in keeping their congregations alive, you see, unlike town shareholders. A parable about Grnphs saved my life in Ringtown, recently.

Inspiration: dogma
Potential: low
Notes: Eh, not very interesting to me. I do think that churches would be a good way to get the lay of the town, but I'm not all that interested in this character or Weird West situation... Or it could be SF and planetary colonies, I guess.

Everybody expects bar stools to be built #sturdy, to support regular patrons and quickly end irregular fights. In Pat's bar, you might notice the extra-wide windowsills and wonder why. It's because of the vampire bats' conservation of mass.

Inspiration: sturdy
Potential: Low. As a setting, this is just funny to me.
Notes: Magic makes them fly, but it doesn't make them light. Urban fantasy or possibly humorous regular low fantasy.
