Hello, everyone. I’m simplyn2deep and your host for the week.

If you're interested in being a Tuesday/Thursday guest host, you can sign up here. Thanks! These are the currently available dates:
Aug. 19 & 21
Aug. 26 & 28
Sep. 2 & 4
Sep. 9 & 11
Sep. 16 & 18

Today's theme is specific scenarios. Prompts that describe a detailed situation for characters to react to or experience. They set the stage for the fic but leave plenty of room for interpretation, things like “stuck in an elevator during a power outage,” “accidentally switched phones,” or “snowed in at the airport.” These work well because they spark instant ‘what if’ ideas without locking the writer into one exact storyline.

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, An accidental text meant for someone else sparks a secret exchange.
+ Hawaii Five-0, Steve McGarrett/Danny Williams, An old friend visits and stirs up jealousy and old memories.
+ Teen Wolf, Hale Pack, They have to host a tense negotiation between rival packs.

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
