Stolen Ideas

Stolen Ideas

After a curse makes everyone steal your ideas, you quickly realize that it might be a blessing in disguise.

Chapter 1 by MonsterInNeed MonsterInNeed

After being accused of stealing someone else's idea you end up being cursed for it. From now on, any idea you express will be immediately stolen by those who hear it and they wont ever know that it came from you in the first place. However, you might realize that it's not much of a curse if they do so no matter how weird your idea is in the first place...

RULES:

  • Ideas can only be stolen if clearly expressed as being an idea (whether through context or by starting your sentence with 'I have an idea' or anything of the sort).
  • People affected will remain in trance until you are done expressing your idea, and wont have any recollection of anything happening during that time (They will however wake up from that trance if you do not express your idea in a timely manner).
  • People affected will be convinced that it is their own idea and will find it brilliant. They will try to justify it and believe their own justification.
  • The idea becomes contagious as soon as it is expressed. Everyone exposed to it will find it brilliant and spread it to other people by talking about it. However, everyone will have their own personal justifications as to why they find it brilliant.
  • Acting on the idea will only reinforce it in everyone's mind and will be seen as evidence that it is, indeed, a brilliant idea.
  • An idea will be perceived as brilliant forever. An new contradicting idea cannot cancel a previous one. Contradictions will be dealt with the way humans always do (In absurd and messy ways).
