Let the Promptathon Begin!

To join the battle, all you need to do is pick a prompt from below (any prompt, even if it's your own) and write/vid/manip/icon/draw/whatever the most creative bit of whatever you can create! And remember - PLEASE feel free to vid or icon or manip or do something non-written. We love ALL kinds of creative output equally!

When you've written/painted/made it, paste it into the comments here. Once you've done that, you can post it wherever else you want.

You may enter as many times as you like, so long as each entry is completely separate (not a series of linked pieces). Also, please do not link to old work - this should be something new, produced for the challenge, based on one of the prompts.

THE RULES

1. It must fit in one comment, so the limit is 4,300 characters (there's no minimum limit). It can be part of a longer piece that you may post elsewhere, as long as it's something new and based on one of the prompts, but all we want here is the part that you are most proud of. If you make art, if it's larger than 350 px wide, please use a thumbnail linking directly to the piece (directly to the artwork, not a post or site). The thumbnail can be up to 350 px wide, and 300 px high, and should include as much of the art as possible. If it is a vidlet or something else requiring dowloading, like a fanmix, please post the link to where we can download. Feel free to post a teaser image, but please confine yourself to the artwork preview rules.

2. Important! Please use the subject line of your comment to identify the snippet, like so: Title, prompt, rating (i.e. Fandom, Pairing, prompt word, rating system of your choice). For example, I might write: "Staying Awake, One Tree Hill, Lucas/Nathan, rain, R", or "The Sun Has Gone Down, Crossover, Torchwood/Stargate Atlantis, Jack/John, under fire, for all ages".

3. You have one week – the post will close for new entries next Sunday, April 1, at midnight eastern standard time. PLEASE be certain to check the World Time Clock to verify the deadline time in your area.

4. Don't forget that these prompts are only written as character one/character two for convience, NOT because of any requirement to make it a relationship story! Gen and friend are very welcome here. They can be interpreted in ANY WAY, so just imagine the FUN possiblities. You can take one prompt and write it, draw it, icon it, fanmix it, AND vid it. (Although if you have the time to do all of that in the week that these prompts are open, I might just have to kill myself out of jealousy :o) And you can use the characters in a different way each time. Don't be afraid to think outside the box!

5. Please don't post anything but your creations or feedback/feedback replies (to individual stories) here. If you've got any questions or comments, please leave them on this post right here, NOT on this post that you are currently reading. We'd like to keep this purely for the creative output (and feedback on the creations - readers/voyeurs, please do show the writers/artists much love for their creative offerings).

The prompts are right here
Thanks SO much to [livejournal.com profile] sageness for coding and lending hosting space on her site!


The prompts using only one character were listed first, followed by the prompts for more than one character. ALL crossovers are under both fandoms, so you don't need to worry about looking in multiple places for your crossovers - those listed under Smallville are the same listed under Supernatural, if you are looking for prompts for a Smallville/Supernatural crossover.

Finally! Warning: ALL ratings are acceptable here, from the things that you would show your aged grandmother, all the way up to to the things that would make a sailor blush. Use your own discretion, and please label your stories, art, and other creative output accordingly.

Thank you kindly!

Thanks. Yeah, it wouldn't have been possible to write this if Diefenbaker didn't have the biggest attitude in two countries.

I'm so sorry, I hadn't realized I forgot. I probably would have give it PG, but adult's fine. (sorry)

I really liked this. Especially the "You can't storm out and then storm back in thirty seconds later, it's just not done" part, totally made me laugh.

I LOVE writing Guy and Mac. Especially Guy who may or may not own my soul. Yay! for another fan. Glad you liked.

It only occurred to me last week as I was watching VS again that, as far as we know, Victoria never finds out what happened to Fraser. Which would be pretty painful. I'm really glad you liked it.

Final Wager, Green Wing, Guy/Mac, jelly, PG

[identity profile] quiesce.livejournal.com 2007-03-30 05:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Guy picked up a cube of red jelly and slurped it noisily. Then he turned to Mac and slurped again making wet smacking sounds, just for effect. "Does that turn you on? Poofter."

"I think the jelly is meant for the patients, not for patient-harassing prats."

Guy frowned. Was it really necessary for Mac to call himself a patient? If he was stealing Mac's food or pointing out how Mac clearly had repressed homosexual yearnings for him, then it was situation normal. Just Guy and Mac being Guy and Mac.

It was bad enough that he had to see Mac propped up in bed and wearing nothing but a hospital gown -- the 'nothing' part known only because he hadn't turned his head quick enough when Mac's babe of a nurse stopped in to check up on him, not because he wanted a glimpse of freckled arse -- but did Mac really have to say it out loud?

So Mac was dying. Fine. And it was likely that the next time he left the hospital, it'd be in a bag. Whatever. Guy didn't care. Well, he did, but only insofar as it meant that Caroline would be a wreck in need of comfort -- not so bad, that -- and he'd need to break in a new surgeon. It was an inconvenience that Mac would be shuffling off, not a tragedy.

"Bet you can't fit all the rest of the jelly in your mouth at once."

Pity party Mac left and plain old ginger-pubed -- Guy assumed, he had thankfully looked away before his retinas seared -- Mac was back. Much better. Guy scoffed. "Easy."

"Bet you can't. Bet you start choking with three cubes left to go."

"I'll have you know, I have an excellent gag reflex."

"So I've heard."

Yep, regular old obviously lusting after Guy -- who could blame him? -- Mac was back.

Guy plucked another cube from the bowl and made a great show of tonguing it audaciously before slipping it past his lips. Might as well give Mac a sight to remember, after all. Show him what he was missing out on.

Yeah, OK, so you did make it hurty, but you also made it very funny and very Guy. Bless Guy, he's so repressed, he might as well just jump Mac now and get it over with.

In fact he could jump him in a vat of jelly. I'd pay to watch that...

[personal profile] catwalksalone 2007-03-30 05:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you! And I'm pleased that bit made you laugh - it made me giggle too. In fact the length of time you have to stay stormed is directly proportional to how self-righteous you were being and how loud you slammed the door. It's scientific fact.

Re: A Sure Thing, Sports Night, Dan/Casey, inevitable, R

[identity profile] quiesce.livejournal.com 2007-03-30 06:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Poor guys indeed. I can't seem to give them a happy ending even when the prompt is geared towards one. :-)
Thank you.

Aww. The next one I write will be happy, I promise. Well, I'll try. Well, I think about it. *g*

I love the idea of everyone knowing and not caring (or openly encouraging). Isaac especially.

Re: Double Back, Sports Night, Sam, return, G

[identity profile] quiesce.livejournal.com 2007-03-30 06:59 pm (UTC)(link)
I see Dana as part of the reason why he wanted to stay away. Not that Dana was omg horrible, but that shippy thoughts scare him. Except now he's back and Dana will work her feminine wiles on him and he's dooooooomed! Mwah hah hah hah.

Re: Double Back, Sports Night, Sam, return, G

[identity profile] quiesce.livejournal.com 2007-03-30 07:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Poor Sam. He's a little bit broken. The Sports Night gang will make it better, even if he resists at first.

M*A*S*H is one of those shows I can not watch for years at a time and then I'll catch an episode and be right back at home. :-)

I know of [livejournal.com profile] mash_slash for fic (but make no guarantees of overall quality). I have a few gems bookmarked if you were interested in more fanfic. And have written two other snippets myself. *cough self-pimps cough*

This is so sweet, and very neurotic Caroline :D
Love it!

AHAHAHAHAHAH, love it! :D

Thank you!

I'm assuming this is in response to Askew. The thing is that when you're commenting it's quite confusing and if you hit 'Leave a Comment' rather than 'Reply' it posts as a response to the whole post rather than the fic. So then it looks totally random. *g* Bloody annoying, I know.

But yay! You liked my Caroline. *twirls*
