STORY STARTER

Submitted by tinyelephant44

Write a short story about a fantasy creature going to the doctor for their yearly check-up. What would they measure? What constitutes as 'normal'?

Reflexes

The large creature sat on the check up chair and swung their legs a little while waiting. They waited for what felt like an hour in silence until the door finally opened again with an older ogre who peered over her glasses. “What are you here for today?”

“Just a normal check- up?”

“Mhm and you’re a class three demon it says here?”

“No uhm- class four now”

She peered over her glasses again and made a small hum, writing something down. “I’ll take it the horns haven’t grown into class four size yet?”

“Not yet, but I’ve been a late bloomer for a lot of things?”

“Mhm okay. Could you roar for me please?”

Diana did as she was told for the doctor to simply scribble another thing down.

“And any powers formed yet?”

“I can make people feel anxious about nothing?”

“Has that developed from anything else?”

“I’ve gained more control over it but it developed from me being able to make people just worry.”

“Mhm okay and that developed late too?”

“Yes-“

“Okay and you come from a ram- based demon family right?”

“That’s right-“

“Okay so by the latest your horns should fully grow in in the next three months but that’s the maximum it should take even for late bloomers”
