[ OT ] Do you prefer posts that are fantasy/science fiction/supernatural , or do you prefer something more grounded in reality ?

> or reality? ( A man and a woman meet under very unusual circumstances... ) 
 
 Give me an hour. I'll turn that into something completely fantastical.: p 
 
 But if I may put my serious hat back on for a moment, what I really prefer is a story that's well thought-out. I do n't care whether it involves people, elves, ghosts or sentient hermaphroditic couch cushions, I just want to read a good story... I want to feel like the author has put effort into creating a world -- no matter how small the world may be -- and taken me on a journey beyond my expectation. 
 
 That said, reality-based prompts tend to require a bit more research or general knowledge to work, and not everyone wants to put in that effort. I'm not saying that as a bad thing, just as an observation. Fantasy on the other hand... you can pull an infinite number of things from your ass and make it come together in a way reality simply does n't allow. 
 
 As for prompts that interest me, I just want someone to show me the wall and let me stick something to it. I do n't want to be told line by line what I'm supposed to create, I want a general suggestion that lets me put my own spin on it.
