These are all six word stories, inspired by the classic prompt given to Ernest Hemingway to write a story in only six words. Me and a friend (blackdragon1003 here on ) ended up coming up with two pages of them, inspired by today's update, where Dave tells Terezi "I'm not a hero. Bro was. John is. I'm not." Those last six words were so perfect that it ended up prompting us to spend an hour and a half doing this. Enjoy!
