1. Strange Noise
You hear a quiet, oddly intentional sound from another room. Nothing dramatic — just suspiciously purposeful.
Note it and let my imagination wander a bit.
Go see what it is right away.
Wait a moment and assess before moving.
Observe patterns first — timing, source, reason.
2. Unexpected Object
There’s an unfamiliar item on your desk. No note, no explanation — just sitting there, as if it has an opinion about things.
It sparks a few ideas instantly.
I touch it, obviously.
I check if it’s safe, then set it aside neatly.
I examine how it’s built before doing anything else.
3. Project Off-Track
A group task veers off course. People glance at you as if you might have a plan tucked behind your ear.
Offer a creative angle to reset the mood.
Try something bold to jolt momentum.
Clarify the goal and rebuild structure.
Identify the actual root problem first.
4. Two Good Options
You must choose between two equally decent paths — neither wrong, neither perfect.
Pick the one that feels like it has potential.
Pick the one that leads somewhere new.
Pick the one that keeps things steady.
Pick the one with the clearest logic.
5. Sudden Inspiration
You’re hit with a burst of energy — one of those moments when things just click.
Let it unfold and see where it leads.
Act before the spark disappears.
Capture it in notes so it survives.
Examine what caused it in the first place.
6. Unexpected Delay
You’re ready to start something important, but a delay forces you to wait longer than planned.
Drift into side ideas until the moment returns.
Look for something else to tackle right now.
Reorganize the plan so nothing collapses.
Use the pause to rethink the overall strategy.
7. Conflicting Advice
Two people give you completely different suggestions — both sound reasonable enough.
Blend the ideas into something slightly odd but interesting.
Follow the one that feels exciting in the moment.
Choose the calmer, more stable recommendation.
Evaluate which suggestion actually solves the underlying issue.
Bonus (tiebreaker)
8. Self-Assessment
If you had to pick the description that feels most like your Signature Quirk —
yes, even on a Tuesday — which one would it be?
WANDERQUILL — half paying attention, half writing an invisible footnote.
Ideas wander in uninvited, and sometimes you follow them out.
BRIGHTSNAP — quick mind, quicker “I’ll try it!” energy.
Plans are often retrofitted after the adventure has started.
TABLEKEEPER — quietly holding everything steady while chaos tests the furniture.
People assume you'll be the responsible one. Annoyingly, they’re right.
DETAILMENDER — you notice the tiny thing that’s off and fix it before anyone else
noticed it existed. Sandwiches included.
