Thursday: Rare Pairings

[templefugate.livejournal.com]

Hello, it's templefugate, back at you with more prompts! Today we explore the ships we love but not everyone else does. That's right, today we focus on the pain of rare pairings! Crossover ships, side characters the fandom largely forgets, ships that only ever appear as a side pairing - go forth and give them some love!

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 above mentioned spoiler cut.

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...
+ Disney, Tiana/Snow White, midnight snacks
+ The Hobbit, Tauriel/Lobelia Sackville-Baggins, anything really
+ MCU, Sam Wilson/Scott Lang, ice cream

We are now using 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 2021 collection. See further notes on this new option here.

Friday: Side Characters

[templefugate.livejournal.com]

Happy October! I'm your host, templefugate. While today is my last day, don't be too sad about me having to leave. I'll be back to host again later this month, where I will be bringing with me a week's worth of spooky prompts. Today, however, we will be focusing on side characters. You know, all those characters you love but who barely get any screen time. Like a parent cheering on their kid playing Tree #3 in a school play, let's show some love for the characters that have a small role but make a big impact.

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 above mentioned spoiler cut.

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...
+ MCU, M'Baku, his first trip to America
+ Sweet Valley High, Claire Middleton, grief
+ The Lord of the Rings, Lobelia Sackville-Baggins, an old woman in a new world
