Thank you all so much! I’ve never tried to write anything funny before, and all my (hopefully) hilarious drafts are wasted on my proof reader...

All of the entries were immensely enjoyable and I can’t wait for the next contest to come around. It’s always a big highlight of the year!

(I should also mention that I was waiting until the end of the month to vote so as of now, my votes are still uncast...)

I didn't close the poll, anyone who hasn't voted can vote for the next six days.
 
I did finally vote

1st - the Wisdom of Blah Blah Blah because the images of madness were so intriguing and the rogue skink's matter of fact "do what you want, your problem not mine tie confirms him/her as a badass.

2nd - One Man's Poison because of the gruff dwarf reluctantly telling what was ultimately a pretty tame story, warming to it and trying to tie it up with a clumsy moral. Class dismissed you annoying little beardlings.
