They are going to pass all of their finals
Only move at dusk and dawn.
Cover yourself. The sun is an old and angry thing.
Try not to leave tracks.
Not all that is visible is real.
Not all that is real is visible.
When you start hearing the voices of the dead, settle down and do not move. They will pass you by.
Do not approach caravans.
Dreams had in the desert are either prophetic or real. Decide wisely which to believe.
There are no wolves here. You will hear them anyway.
Never rest in the bottom of a dune valley.
Do not speak to anything that has not proven itself to be human.
When the sand shakes, run.
Cover your mouth. The sand will coat your lungs.
Seeing things in the day is not a problem. Seeing things at night should be.
Never play the flute.
Always carry a sack of sugar for hungry things.
You are meat. Do not forget this fact.
If there is something in your periphery, do not look at it. It wants you to.
Dig yourself into the ground in a sandstorm. The wind will take you away.
The flames are not real.
The shadows are not real.
Never close your tent flap all the way. It is impolite.
Never let your lantern go out.
The ancient have no love for the young.
Do not drink water offered to you.
Do not watch the dancers. They will trick you.
There should be no clouds. If there are, move until they disappear.
Travel alone. You will invariably lose your companions.
Someone will cry out for help. Do not follow the voice.
The murmurs of veiled ones are to be disregarded.

(from “Bloopers & Outtakes #2″) (insp)
Person A gets kidnapped by some people, and Person B has to find them somehow.
Option 1.) They find Person A dead.
Option 2.) They find Person A alive, but is horribly injured mentally and psychologically. Person B is hurt seeing Person A in such a state; flinching away from people, jumping at sudden noises or movement, afraid of being alone.
Option 3.) They never find Person A.

Seeing as these seem to be getting more and more popular, I thought I’d compile a list of all the different varieties I’d seen. Suggest more if you’ve seen them, and feel free to message me with sources to add if you remember where the original post is!
Classic: people realising they’re soulmates as soon as their eyes meet. The power of a glance, as Victor Hugo would say.
