self-insert prompt: The Fuck-up
Oh jeez, oh christ almighty it’s bad. I swear it seemed like a good idea at the time, but just... oh fuck I just don’t know when it all went south! When does your plan go horribly, horribly wrong? It all seemed so foolproof until... that happened... yeah, didn’t plan for this situation did you? What’s the flaw that dooms the day today? Is it a life-threatening catastrophe or is it simply a social disaster? Was it a careless word or an unexpected consequence?
How do you fix this? Do you slyly talk your way out of it? Run in, guns blazing? Or is there nothing left to do but hang your head and admit defeat? Or, even scarier, admit fault?
