Friday | Names in Common
Jul. 5th, 2013 12:05 amHello, Shetan here~! Hope it’s been a good week for you. ^_^ I must bid you farewell, my dear fellows, but not until after I explain this idea that I devised just for today. On my birthday. ♫
Today's theme: names in common. It’s just how it sounds: pick a name, any name, and write a short nonspecific idea to go along with it because... every prompt today is author’s choice. You can pick 2 common names for 1 prompt and include the option of a crossover. (More than 2 names would be too difficult for the writer... and probably give away where you got them. XP;)
If you’re writing a fill, the name doesn’t have to be exactly what you see: we all know names can have alternate spellings, fall under different categories (nicknames, full names, given, family), or be ambiguous (male, female, unisex). All that matters is that mental click of inspiration.
A reminder of the rules:
Also, for the sake of our fantastic coders, please remember to use the proper format for prompts.
Examples:
If the plot bunnies aren’t attacking you today, don't forget to check out our archive of Lonely Prompts.
For more recent prompts to write (and fills to read), you can also use LJ’s advanced search options to limit keyword results to only comments in this community.
I hope all of you have had fun this week. I sure as hell have. ♥

A reminder of the rules:
+ No more than five prompts in a row
+ No more than three prompts per fandom
+ If one or more of your prompts is filled today, then you may prompt again
+ No spoilers within prompts until a week after the airdate/release
+ Warn for spoilers in bold and leave at least three spaces before the text
Also, for the sake of our fantastic coders, please remember to use the proper format for prompts.
Examples:
For a single fandom:
author’s choice, Sora, blue and gray
author’s choice, Setsuna, view from above
For (possibly) multiple fandoms / crossovers:
author’s choice (crossover), John + John, you get used to it
author’s choice (crossover), James + or / Mike, strawberries and peaches
If the plot bunnies aren’t attacking you today, don't forget to check out our archive of Lonely Prompts.

Fill: Pirates of the Carribean/Doctor Who, Captain Jack Sparrow + Captain Jack Harkness
