Hello! creepy_shetan here, filling in as your host for this week. Hope everyone's doing well and you're ready for Tuesday. ^_^ I know many people are excited about the Paris Olympics, but for today I drew inspiration from this July/August's other highly-anticipated thing to watch... ** We're still in a spoiler-free/spoiler warning time period at this comm, so be careful, if you also have Marvel anything on your brain! **
Today's theme is rare ships and/or crack ships. Prompts and fills can feature relationships (romantic, PWP, or completely gen!) that are rare or ridiculous -- or, if you're feeling extra weird ambitious, ships that could be seen as both. I'll leave what constitutes a rare ship up to you and your knowledge of the fandom(s), but I recommend using AO3 as a general guide. You can always take a popular pairing and make it rare by adding a third character, of course, or more. Again, platonic groups of oddball friends or completely-self-indulgent found families are welcome today, too!
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. Unfortunately, DW doesn’t have a cut tag, so use your best judgment when it comes to spoilers. 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... + Loki/Deadpool (MCU), Mobius M. Mobius +/ Mr. Paradox, office tension of any flavor and intensity + The Batman (Reeves movie 'verse)/Deadpool & Wolverine (movie 'verse), Bruce Wayne +/ Worst Wolverine, AUTHOR'S CHOICE but here's an optional scenario: Wade "accidentally" drops Logan into Gotham (via a TVA tempad, magic, whatever) and records the entire incident for science + The Wolverine/Logan (X-Men movie 'verse), Yukio + Laura (+ any), what if they met after Laura and the other X-23 kids were safely in Canada? (what if Yukio had a premonition about Logan or even Charles?)
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.
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. Fret not, DW members; we are working on a way to search through old entries for prompts for you! As of right now, the best way to search for a lonely prompt on DW is to search the community’s archive, which can be found [[HERE]].
While the use of LJ's advanced search and DW’s archive are options, bookmarking the links of prompts you like might work better for searching in the future.
As a friendly reminder about our schedule, Lonely Prompts and sharing completed fills are encouraged on Sundays, while new themes and prompts are posted on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Saturdays are a Free for All day. We'll share our posts on DW and LJ for everyone's convenience. Keep an eye out for notifications!
If you have a Dreamwidth account and would feel more comfortable participating there, please feel free to do so…and spread the word! comment_fic
