if you trapped your enemies soul in a puzzle with the stipulation that they could only escape if the puzzle is completed and dumped it in a thrift store theres a chance that theyd never get out. you might be thinking well if theyre your enemy why would you put them in the thrift where a puzzle enthusiast might actually buy it and not just like, i dont know, send it to the landfill or throw it in a volcano, but i think it would be interesting to see if they ever get out and how long it might take. could be days. could be never.
get a DM from my rival many years later rubbing my hands together thinking the hunt is on then i open it and its them thanking me for turning them into a puzzle. apparently a little old lady bought it to pass the time and as she was putting it together which took a long time (i went for the 5,000 piece puzzle) they fell in love with her and they actually got out of the puzzle a while back and now theyre like happily married to her and revenge and our rivalry is no longer like relevant. apparently so irrelevant that it didnt even cross their mind to let me know they got out or anything until now. so its like all off the table, because they know what life is really about now, and im going to have to find another rival, or something. which is fine. totally what i was going for.... nothing about that makes me feel any kind of way. wish them well actually. i shant be talking about this ever again
