Hey, everyone! I'm creepy_shetan, and I'm back with another theme that I hope you have some fun with today. ^.^ Thanks for prompting, brainstorming, writing, reading, commenting, and generally checking in this week!
Today's theme is indulgences. The easiest way for me to sum this up is with a Parks & Rec reference: today's the day for anyone and everyone to "treat yo'self." ✨ Go on and have that thing you want without worrying, and maybe even help someone else enjoy themselves, too. It's time to reward and spoil your characters in whatever way you wish/they'd wish. It can be something small (like a nice dessert with dinner) or something big (like a long vacation far away from their usual life struggles). Of course, indulgences don't have to cost money, and what's thought of as "something extra" varies from person to person.
Feel free to add specifics to your prompts, like whether you'd prefer a gen fill over something shippy, or if you have a squick or trigger you hope to avoid. Original fiction, fanfiction, and fanfic crossovers are all welcome. ~_^
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... + Tolkien, anyone of Gondor or Rohan + any hobbit(s), they have trouble imagining life in the Shire, where indulgences are part of everyday life + any super hero comic book fandom, any (+/ any), a hotel room upgrade and/or room service + author's choice, any (+/ any), buying a fancy dessert from a nice bakery after a stressful day/week at work
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!
