What would you do if you discovered that you were "The One"?

What would you do if you discovered you were "The One"? What would you do if you were the key figure of some ancient prophecy or you stumbled across a MacGuffin that had to be returned, completed, or destroyed?

If you know, you know 😄

How would you respond if while on your way to work, you stop at the coffee shop and someone came up to you and asked about the MacGuffin you just bought from the pawn shop or said "You are the last hope for our people, as our prophets foretold!" and you had to leave for your quest right away?

My reaction would be "...but... but I have work at 7..."

What if you were THE ONE?

You’re kind of asking two different questions there.
First question: if i were “the one”, then i’d hope like hell whoever tells me i’m the one brings some magic beans or the like to get my gumption up. Cuz i don’t give a sh*t about much of anything these days. Ell oh ell!
Second question: i would smack the sh*t out of someone who came to me with a MacGuffin and thought they could goad me into some silly waste of time. A meaningful quest is one thing. A trinket and a platitude? You better hope i’m in a good mood that day.

When I was a kid I always thought that I would, have some special purpose. I wanted to be an astronaut and thought maybe I would be the first man to go to Mars. I thought that maybe one of my kids would be that person but it probably might not happen.

I suspect that if I was "the one" of anything I would know before I was 36. "The One" in movies always seems to be some high school kid. I guess it would be nice to learn I am not a schmuck living a meaningless life without purpose.

Well, I guess technically we're all "THE ONE" to someone. If you've had to salvage a ton of things or help others out or whatever... you're "the one" even if it's just for a day.

As a gaming nerd, I would probably say something like, "Well, then I need an Elf, a Dwarf, a talking animal, a giant sword, and an airship!"

I'd find out what the going price for salvation is in the moment.

With my luck being the one would mean the one they chuck in the volcano.

I’m still the one and I’m still having fun
