comment_ficHello, everyone. I’m ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
simplyn2deep and today's theme is all about Proposals. That doesn't mean all of your prompts have to be about someone proposing marriage, though I'm certainly not going to argue if anyone does.
Proposal: a plan or suggestion, especially a formal or written one, put forward for consideration by others.
Synonyms: scheme, plan, project, programme, manifesto, motion, bid, proposition, presentation, submission, approach, suggestion, overture, draft, recommendation, tender
BUT DON'T GIVE YOUR RESPONSE JUST YET! THERE'S MORE ABOUT THESE PROPOSALS FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK!
*clears throat* Sorry for yelling. I needed to make sure I had your attention.
Just a few rules:
No more than five prompts in a row.
No more than three prompts in the same fandom.
Use the character's full names and fandom's full name for ease adding to the Lonely Prompts spreadsheet.
No spoilers in prompts for a month after airing, or use the spoiler cut option found here.
If your fill contains spoilers, warn and leave plenty of space, or use the spoiler cut.
If there are possible triggers in your story, please warn for them in the subject line!
Prompts should be formatted as follows: [Use the character's full names and fandom's full name]
Fandom, Character +/ Character, Prompt
Some examples to get the ball rolling...
+ Hawaii Five-0, Steve McGarrett/Danny Williams, they propose to each other...at the same time
+ Any, Any +/ Any, Character A would like to start their own business but needs help; Enter Character B with a proposal
+ Hawaii Five-0, Tani Rey/Junior Reigns, “You know this is never going to work…your plans always suck.” – “Fine, what do you propose we do?”
We use AO3 to bookmark filled prompts. If you fill a prompt and post it to AO3 please add it to the Bite Sized Bits of Fic from 2019 collection. See further notes on this new option here.
Not feeling any of today’s prompts? Check out Lonely Prompts Spreadsheet 1 (not very current), Lonely Prompts Spreadsheet 2, or the Calendar Archives, or for more recent prompts, you can use LJ's advanced search options to find prompts to request and/or fill.
While the Lonely Prompts Spreadsheets and LJ's advanced search options are available, bookmarking the links of prompts you like might work better for searching for in the future.
Also, there are plenty of open hosting dates. Please check out the Guest Host entry to sign up (if you feel like it).

Date: 2019-07-29 07:04 pm (UTC)Any, any/any, “I kind of made a PowerPoint to explain why we should go out.”
Red White and Royal Blue, Alex/Henry
Date: 2024-02-07 04:47 pm (UTC)Alex loved Henry.
He felt forever about him.
His family supported them.
Henry loved Alex. Alex was positive that was the case, his brain analysing all their interactions and providing him with a wealth of evidence to support his supposition.
Henry had insisted things between them needed to be casual.
Princes aren't allowed to be gay.
Henry's family as a whole aren't supportive.
It didn't make Henry running away any easier to get over, but those main points on his lists had shown Alex exactly what was going on. Henry was running scared, not because he didn't love Alex and needed to get away from him, but because he did love him and felt like they couldn't make things work.
Armed with this knowledge, the resolve to try and make things work for them however they could and a pep talk from Nora Alex boarded a flight to London. On the flight Alex made a mental note of all his arguments, thought through all the things he could say to convince Henry to give them a chance, and then opened an app on his phone and started to put it all down for Henry to see.
Storming Kensington Palace hadn't been on his bucket list for the year, but to get to Henry he would do it as many times as necessary. Shaan had been unimpressed when Alex had first appeared, but he couldn't care less, as long as he got to tell Henry how he felt about him.
Arguing with Henry wasn't what Alex had wanted to do, he hadn't come all this way to fight with the man he loved, he had come to fight for him, for them. He had hoped that Henry would see that there was a path forward for them, even if it was still in the shadows for now.
He was overjoyed when Henry agreed to try, to fight for himself and for then, and they may have acted like children in their exuberance. After dancing with Henry and running around the museum, just having fun being in love, they had returned to Kensington.
Laying in Henry's superfluous monstrosity of a bed with Henry's head pillowed on his chest Alex spoke up. “I kind of made a PowerPoint to explain why we should go out.”
Henry let out a small laugh before reaching for Alex's phone. Alex unlocked it and opened the presentation he made on the plane. The first slide was already queued up ready for Henry to scroll through his ideas.
Why # FirstPrince needs to be a thing!
Henry started to laugh even as Alex went off on a tangent about it being their couple name and how they should really check out some of the real person fanfiction about them.
