Tuesday: No Dialogue

[4bdnsn0wflake.livejournal.com]

Greetings! It’s 4bdnsn0wflake again. Today’s theme is No Dialogue.

Prompts can have dialogue in them or not, but fills should contain no dialogue.

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 the fandom's full name
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...

+ Author’s choice, any character(s), tears

+ MCU, Steve Rogers/+Bucky Barnes, companionship

+ Lucifer (TV), Chloe Decker, secrets

+ The Strachey Mysteries, Donald Strachey/Timothy Callahan, petty cash

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 2023 collection. See further notes on this new option here.

Not feeling any of today’s prompts? You can use LJ’s advanced search options to limit keyword results to only comments in this community.

While the use of LJ's advanced search options is available, bookmarking the links of prompts you like might work better for searching in the future.

Spring semester lulled me into a false sense of security for the Fall semester 🤣

The classes in the Spring semester were just the right level of difficulty, but for the Fall semester term A classes (BIO 201 Human Anatomy/Physiology 1 and HCR 221: Foundational Concepts of Health Care Coordination) I feel like I've been thrown into the deep end.

For BIO, we are completing anywhere from 2-4 chapters A WEEK! That includes reading the text, doing various worksheets and labs. There are also chapter quizzes and exams every week or two. Speaking of exams. This professor is out of her mind. When we do the exam, we have to be in a room, by ourselves with no talking (not even to read the question out loud!), we have to scan the room using the camera on our laptop so that the virtual proctor can see we are alone and that we don't have anything around us except for our laptop/computer and clear water bottle. It's such a freaking hassle. I won't be able to do them in the apartment bc it's 1 bedroom and I can't be in the bed taking the exam - I have to be a desk and sitting in a chair...also there's the matter of what do I do about Kim?! So I'll have to ask Colleen to come back down to stay with Kim so I can go to campus to take the exam in one of the single study rooms.

For HCR, all of the assignments are done in teams. The professor made the teams before the semester started (I think they were available to us the day before classes started), so it was just a matter of creating a meet schedule that worked for everyone spread out across the country/in different time zones. With our team, we have a presentation or a paper do every week (each week alternates between presentation and paper) so we had to pick assignment captains (I picked the last assignment bc I wanted to see how the others would do lol). Right now we are in the thick of things for a presentation that's due on Sunday, but scheduled to be turned in on Saturday or Sunday afternoon at the latest. And I'm finding that some of the team members are prone to worry and/or make things harder for themselves. I keep telling them to not add more the assignment than what the professor asked for. That's creating more work for us and we only have a week to research, put the presentation together, write our "script" and list our sources.

And then yesterday was supposed to have been the first day of in person programming for ASU Local, but the site director made the decision to do it via zoom because of TS Hilary. I was glad for that but at the same time I wasn't. I was looking forward to get back to my school schedule of meeting in person weekly on Mondays so that Kim could get back to the same schedule. Oh well. For sure we are meeting next Monday in person. Thank goodness!
