Reply to comment by AutoModerator in [WP] You are a werewolf trying your best to live peacefully among humans, but your SO has just proposed to you with a ring of pure silver. You genuinely love and want to marry them, but you also have to somehow get out of accepting this ring. by Kitty_Fuchs
You didn't tell your SO about your silver allergy that affects 10-15% of humans? You're not ready to be married.

Reply to comment by Houki01 in [WP] You're a 'comically incompetent' supervillain for a group of C-List heroes. They are no real threat to you, so you endure their childish speeches. However, when the heroes raid the civilian business you run on the side and injure your employees, you decide to take yourself seriously for once. by Informal_Ad_6157
That's actually a really pretty group of flowers

I hope that having a veteran there will help people know to get help faster. And maybe avert some developing PTSD.

Reply to LPT: Count the number of Trick or Treaters that come to your door. It’ll help with buying candy next year. My dad kept a tally for decades. Now my sibs and I do the same. Knowing we had 63 kids in 2021 helped to decide how many bags of candy to buy. by gladysk
I get a large amount of candy, hand it out by the handful, and go back inside and turn off the lights when it's gone. You're sad you didn't get to the house that hands out the equivalent of 3 king size bars? Get here sooner next year.

Reply to comment by Dimantina in [WP] You are a barista in a 24 hour coffee shop. Every night at 3:33am a demon appears for the Dark Lord's latte. by WarturtleWitch
The main character will quit just as soon as she figures out how to sell the gold without drawing unwanted attention. It's not that she would mind paying taxes, it's just the whole "being in jail for felony theft because she can't explain where she got it from" that palls.
She managed to get enough scrapings off one to cover the next year or so of Steve's lattes, so at least she's not out of pocket anymore.
But aside from...shall we say "mortal" concerns? Aside from those are the supernatural concerns. Shortly after she worked out just how much Steve was tipping, she saw that Tumblr thread about Fey running a coffee shop and the dangers of not paying fair value.
Could accepting an extreme over payment count as a deal with a demon? A few days of reading and she added "may be given of your own will and do not bind us together by any contract" after "TIPS" on the counter jar^* . She's taking Steve's lack of reaction to the change as a good sign. But she's also not rushing to get that gold sold.
^* Actually a brilliant move, tips from human^& customers tripled after that
^& At least she assumes, hopes, they're human

In your first example, A did not know B, but in your second, A knows B. The first is clearly a series of passwords to test an unknown claimant.
How would the introduction go today if A didn't know B?
In 1875, how would B have been introduced to C if A knew B?

Reply to comment by Hemingbird in [WP] All your life, mythological beings have tried to pick you up. Childhood? Forced adoption. Teenagehood/Adulthood? Marriage. For example, selkies purposefully left their skins where you'd find them; banshees serenade you outside every night. Now at 30, you've learned why you attract them all... by MidgardWyrm
I like the story.
I Love the commitment to how you wrote the voice
