Hello, friends, I’m canonisrelative and today's theme is Quotes & Sayings. Prompts should be in the form of a quote or saying -- could be a line of dialogue from a show/movie/book, a cliche or a proverb, etc. Fills can either be inspired by the saying or can include it in the text, that's up to the author.
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...
+ Leverage, Alec Hardison/Eliot Spencer/Parker, “Before you marry a person, you should first make them use a computer with slow Internet service to see who they really are.” (Will Ferrell)
+ The X-Files, Dana Scully/Fox Mulder, It is easy to propose impossible remedies.
+ Hawaii Five-0, Steve McGarret/Danny Williams, "I'm not great at advice. Can I interest you in a sarcastic comment?" (Chandler, 'Friends')
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 2022 collection. See further notes on this new option here.

While the Lonely Prompts Spreadsheet and LJ's advanced search options are available, bookmarking the links of prompts you like might work better for searching for in the future.
