About This Week’s Prompt

Given a prompt worded in this way, do you prefer to place yourself in a fictionalized story, or to apply the prompt to a fictional character? Does it depend on the prompt, or do you have a knee-jerk reaction to how you deal with such prompts regularly? Let us know in the comments!
