Hi, everybody! I’m templefugate, your host for the week. As a reminder, for January, we will be trying a new posting schedule. Sundays are for Lonely Prompts and sharing the fills that you completed during the week, Tuesdays and Thursdays are for new themes and prompts, and Saturdays will remain a Free for All.
With that being said, today's theme is rare characters. Prompts should be focused on and involve rare characters - i.e., characters who are often overlooked in fan works. They deserve love, too! (In my case, I tend to define a character as being rare if they are tagged less than 100 times on Ao3, but I'll give everyone else wiggle room.)
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... + The X-Files, Queequeg, getting to help Scully on a case + Barbie, Weird Barbie & Sugar's Daddy Ken, overly enthusiastic dog parents + Any, any rare character, self-esteem issues
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 2024 collection. See further notes on this new option here.

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.
