You can only pick one

I'd take the stone, develop a dependency for it, and feel I have even less value than I started when I'm not touching it.

If each member of my party picks a different one we can share, right?

I am definitely going to have to check out our poly comm

Treasure stone, I have no idea why anyone else wouldn't choose it

Is everyone else really so confident? How is treasure stone not the obvious choice by a mile?
- They think they're better than us
I was gonna say, I desperately need the Treasure Stone

blanket, candle and mug are infinite energy sources so they are op, blanket has the greatest capacity for energy generation among them so it is objectively the best choice in this meta

I'm torn between the treasure stone and the cuddly bear ngl

Same. I don't think of myself as repressed but I can never get a good cry on

Blanket. It's fucking warm here. I'd just wear it always.

Endless candle and cuddly bear seem op. I think I'd go with the endless candle build, because cuddly bear build may cause a side effect of people perceiving you the wrong way if you cry too much. Magic blanket feels appealing because of the perfect temperature though.

Cuddly Bear. No question.

I know right? I can take it with me and help my friends etc with one hug. I didn't see an emptiness expiration in the description. And , you have an immortal friend that loves you.

blanket/candle/mug are great bc they violate the laws of physics and you could probably become some kind of guru cult leader by showcasing them

but dream pillow is definitely the most fun

I could actually see cuddlybear being powerful. Market it as a psych treatment for depressed multimillionaires, get them hooked, and start extorting them for it. Also videotape them crying and blackmail them with it. That's right cracka I sell the opiates now

With the stone, you'll have the confidence you need to become a guru cult leader without a magic item.
- you need more than just confidence, also I don't need any more of that

Magic blanket seems like a safe pick with a relatively low skill floor, but in the current meta I can't see myself choosing anything other than treasure stone. High risk and high reward. The only problem is that I see it being a popular ban during the draft.

treasure stone, blanket, and cuddly bear are goated. I'm leaning treasure stone, but if the magic blanket can keep two people of different temperatures happy then its magic blanket handsdown. I would pick magic pillow but sometimes my nightmares are really beautiful and creatively inspiring. idk if that sounds too edgey lol.

Candle, pillow and cuddly bear together would cure my ptsd. Seems kinda rude to deny me that by making me choose.

The stone so I never have to forget LToV. It'd also be great for union drives and building solidarity etc.

I already have cuddly bear so I think I'll have the good dream pillow

Magic blanket, it would be great as a heatsink during summer

'right temperature always' has tremendous implications. gonna start a thermal energy facility by willing the right temperature to be 2000C
- The blanket offers a way out of the laws of thermodynamics, I really like it because of that

magic blanket if it also works to keep heat out, otherwise good dream pillow

its definitely the blanket, with that I could walk through lava

Dog do you have any idea how much of a life changer that mug would be?

The perfect warm drink at the perfect temperature to enjoy it AND IT DOESNT ACCIDENTALLY SPILL EVER!

Nevermind the fact the blanket would be the perfect survival kit item I WANT MY LIQUID TREATS TO BE TASTY

people are sleeping on the candle, no stress? i need this NOW

Blanket, unless the good dream pillow magically makes you fall asleep too. Just let me sleep, plz, I am so eepe.

gimme the dream pillow. i feel like less of a human than others because i can never remember dreams. like other people have these amazing often lucid fantasy adventures and meaningful psychodrama when they sleep, whereas i just go black inside and then wake back up in ShitWorld with maybe 1 or 2 vague sense/emotion impressions of something that was maybe cool or at least interesting that just piss me off more than if i remembered nothing at all. but alas i need to use weed for PTSD purposes or else i just sit around doing nothing in an executive dysfunction way and thinking depressing thoughts and feeling bad in an existential way all day. and yes i have tried dream journals, but you need to remember something to write it down. i could write 'i maybe had a dream about a house at night or something, there was a window and lights' and that would be like 99% of my dream journal entries. i keep waking up in the middle of the night, not enough to do anything (if i really 'got up' even enough to jot down notes, i wouldn't be able to get back to sleep), saying to myself 'i definitely was just dreaming, i'll definitely remember this well enough in the morning to write it down' and then its gone by the time i'm actually awake if there was anything in the first place and not just vagueness my half-asleep brain convinces itself was anything more than like 2 images and a vibe.

i had like another full paragraph/collection of run-on sentences of trauma dumping typed up here but i'm not posting it due to opsec reasons. you are welcome. be thankful that you are spared further inane whining ramblings of a depressed yet comfortable 30 year old failson/manchild.

and yes i have tried dream journals, but you need to remember something to write it down. i could write 'i maybe had a dream about a house at night or something, there was a window and lights' and that would be like 99% of my dream journal entries

This is normal for beginning to dream journal. Making entries like that is perfect. I do not know exactly how it works in the brain but I know from my own experience and others that if you consistently write down the little bits you do remember, your brain will gradually start retaining more.

i keep waking up in the middle of the night, not enough to do anything (if i really 'got up' even enough to jot down notes, i wouldn't be able to get back to sleep), saying to myself 'i definitely was just dreaming, i'll definitely remember this well enough in the morning to write it down' and then its gone by the time i'm actually awake

This also happened to me during this process and I think it's an important part. What I did was keep a scratch pad next to my bed. Wake up, do not turn on the lights or move much at all, and just scribble down something illegible. Alternatively turn on your voice recording app and mumble some nonsense. Go back to sleep as soon as your body wants to. It doesn't matter that in the morning you don't understand what you said or wrote. It's something about your brain being shown that it's important information to retain.

I use weed for PTSD too, and it definitely makes remembering dreams more difficult because you just don't have as many with the REM suppression. But since I've made a practice of dream journaling - you really do have to keep at it unfortunately - I still regularly have the sort of "meaningful psychodrama" dreams that I end up discussing in therapy and dissecting to better understand my own feelings.
Do you by chance sleep very soundly? I find I only remember my dreams much if I slept like shit.
- no i wake up multiple times every night. i also have no real control over my schedule, i have to drive friends/roommates to work every day.
  
  edit: not a criticism of them, they just have shitty bosses and shitty jobs. driving them is like the 1 thing i do that makes me feel useful at all.
Try drinking to the point of severe hangover.
- i hate alcohol, just makes me nauseuous and fatigued and self-conscious and scared. i don't really even like being around drunk people even though i pretty much have to since one of my best friends is an alcoholic, it's exhausting and scary every time for me.

Dream pillow, I love good dreams and sometimes wish they'd never end.

Gimme the pillow. I always have wild dreams but I can never remember anything more than the vaguest details

Permanently Deleted

it's clearly a source of infinite energy.

The blanket is OP i take that.

I choose candle. I'll get a candleholder and carry it with me everywhere so that people around me chill the fuck out.

I'm saying mug so it doesn't feel left out. Ily cute watermelon mug

need cuddly bear in my bed immediately

good dream pillow obviously on account of my constant nightmares, I think that mugs going to lead to food poisoning

Its got to be magic blanket for me

magic blanket because if things go to absolute shit just head north into the arctic and at least you have one element of survival covered magically

The coffee cup actually exists.

Yeah, no need to waste a pick on the mug. If you need caffeine to get going but get jittery from finishing coffee before it cools off too much, an electric mug will genuinely make your life better

If you wanna save $50 and avoid using an app, Nextmug is a good alternative to Ember
- There's probably mug heating pads that are cheaper than $100 too.

Bear

I need that blanket

Mug gang mug gang

Good dream pillow should mean I get good sleeps and get big brains. But treasure stone means I could apply those big brains. I need both really.

stoner here 🙋‍♂️

Between the candle and the bear. I think probably the candle

smells like a nice memery

yea everyone loves the smell of expired mountain dew and smegma

One in melon mug for infinite energy, tastiness, and theming bonus

infinite candle that makes you not stress? I'll take two please screm

I am stressed at nearly every single moment I am awake so I'll take that candle

I live in a horrible climate so blanket is best option for me.

Ill make a cool jacket put of it

Magic blanket, summers here too hot, winters too cold and my ass can't afford any comfort, so that's a clear winner. As for the rest, dream pillow don't really need I can lucid dream already, any candle sets off the smoke alarm, the teddy doesn't seem to be anything special and I have cuddly kitties, the favorite mug is interesting but nah unless I can use it on warmed water, that'd be hilarious but still not as nice as the blanket, I don't see what being braver will do, I'm already here afterall.

wheres cinderblock. i demand cinderblock.

It fills me with joy that so many of you found this little CYOA (choose your own adventure) amusing. I will be back in some time with another one.

I need all six.

You would literally become a demigod
- Yeah putting it all together like a cuddly thanos would look wild tho.

blanket

ELDER GOD TIER explosion

Endless candle

GOD TIER posad

Cuddly bear, magic blanket

CONTENDER TIER sicko-orca

Good dream pillow, treasure stone

DEEPLY FLAWED TIER : agony-mescaline

Favorite mug

Favorite mug and endless candle both violate laws of thermodynamics. S tier
- Candle probably does it best, since the cup specifies warm - and if you take an extremely cheesy interpretation of "stress" then it might apply to material stress, for added reality-breaking consequences.

Treasure stone but it's close with the pillow.
