How round robins work: How they work is a person starts a story by laying out the first sentence, and a reply comes up with the next sentence to the story, and whatever replies to that reply becomes the next sentence, and so on and so forth. So it's like if Twitch wrote a novel, though it's a classic game, one that serves as a remedy for writers' block that also happens to be fun.

First person to reply starts the story.

There once was a man from Nanjing.

Man, oddly named Stanley, came to a set of two open doors.

Attempting to walk through the door on the right, Stanley bounced off some sort of barrier that knocked him back.

This is awkward said Stanley, I wonder what's behind door number 2 or should I turn back?

Curiosity got the better of him, and as he found a way to look inside, at the very end of the room was an artifact.

Moving closer it appeared to be a pair of white boxer shorts with love hearts emblazoned on them.

It was, however, a talisman, called the Crutch Talisman, taking on a disguise, but which had an incredible power, being that touching it would grant the toucher a superpower depending on whatever medical conditions they already possessed, with each medical condition promising someone a different superpower should they touch the Crutch Talisman.

Sadly, Stanley wears briefs, so he did not pick them up.

I wish I had some briefs Stanley thought to himself it's getting a little nippy standing here in my birthday suit.
