comment_ficHello, everyone. I’m nagi_schwarz and your host for the week. Today's theme is food! Prompts can be types of food, names of dishes, making food, consuming food, sharing food, and anything to do with food.
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...
+ Any, any, comfort food
+ Any, any, food poisoning
+ Any, any, foraging for food
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

Fill: Trixie Belden Mysteries/The Three Investigators, Trixie Belden/Jupiter Jones
Date: 2024-09-10 11:46 pm (UTC)Jupiter hadn’t seen any underhanded dealings. Mostly the guy had played chess in the park, read a newspaper under a shady tree, and gotten ice cream from a sidewalk cart, all while Jupiter had to work very hard at going unnoticed.
The end result was that he was hot and a little out of sorts, and not expecting his apartment to be cold enough to comfortably host a polar bear.
“Trixie? Is the AC broken?”
It wasn’t only the cold that was different. The whole apartment smelled of cinnamon and sugar and things that had just come from the oven.
“Nope.” Trixie popped out of the kitchen wearing an over-sized cardigan and fuzzy slipper socks and gave Jupiter a quick kiss. “You want some apple crisp?”
“I think I want a snowsuit.”
“Oh, it’s not that cold. Hang on.”
Back in the kitchen she went, returning with two dessert bowls. The one she handed Jupiter was blessedly warm. The apple crisp was still steaming, at least the parts that weren’t covered by a thick white sauce of some kind.
“What are we doing?”
Trixie plopped down on the couch and patted the cushion next to her. “Sit. I know you had a long day. Sorry I couldn’t help.”
She hadn’t been feeling well for the last couple of days, and Jupiter couldn’t help feeling that blasting the AC wasn’t the best antidote for that. Unless she was feverish? He pressed a kiss to her forehead, but she didn’t feel like she was running a temperature.
“I was just laying around feeling miserable and watching old Miss Marple movies, and decided I needed to tap into my inner Moms and make some comfort food. Lucky we still had some apples on hand so I didn’t need to run to the store.”
Jupiter took a tentative taste of the apple crisp – Trixie could be hit or miss with the cooking – but it was delicious. Crispy, crunchy topping, apples that were just soft enough without being mushy, and that sauce on top adding a different type of sweetness.
“This is amazing!”
“Right? But you can’t eat apple crisp on a hot, sunny day. That’s why I turned up the AC. It reminds me of autumn days back in Sleepyside. We’d pick bushels of apples and Moms would make apple sauce and apple cake and apple pie, but apple crisp was always my favorite. The vanilla sauce is my Grandma Belden’s recipe.”
Jupiter wasn’t a hundred percent sure he’d even had apple crisp before. Aunt Mathilda had certainly never made it; her comfort foods ran to meatloaves and gravies.
“How come you’ve never made it before now?”
Trixie shrugged. “The weather’s always so nice here, I guess. I just hadn’t thought about it.”
“Do you have any other cold weather recipes?”
“I make a corn chowder that would knock your socks off.”
Jupiter thought perhaps they could have one day a month of running the AC too cold, just so Trixie could try out some of her other favorite autumn meals. It would make a nice change from street tacos and fish.
“You better eat it before it gets cold!”
Jupiter did just that and went back for seconds.
