Challenge post for August '09!

Challenge Closed as of 09/25/09!

WARNING: I have turned viewer advisory off since I want this comm to be anon-friendly, but you will likely find sexually explicit material here, and you may possibly find content that is disturbing or triggering in some fashion. Please turn back if you are not okay with that!

What we are doing here is a Prompt Tree Challenge. Any fandom is welcome, or for that matter things that aren't usually considered fandoms (historical figures, mythology, whatever you want). Gen and smut of any type are both welcome. Fanart is welcome, too - but if you post art, please link to it instead of posting it directly in the comments, and use appropriate warnings.

To explain how this works, I'm just going to use a really popular fandom with easily recognizable characters. PLEASE READ THE INSTRUCTIONS even if you participated last time, because I have changed them slightly in response to feedback.

First, you leave a top-level comment with the fandom you'd like to see people write in.

Full Metal Alchemist


Then reply to that comment with the name of a character from that fandom you'd like to see people write about.

Full Metal Alchemist
Edward Elric


People interested in that character reply to that comment with a character (or more than one character) they want to pair the first character up with (in either a gen or porny context).
Full Metal Alchemist
Edward Elric (FMA)
Roy Mustang
Winry Rockbell & Alphonse Elric


(To help people find the pairings they're interested in reading/writing about, please change the subject line of the comment at this point to the pairing in question - for instance, if you responded to Edward Elric with Roy Mustang, make your subject line Edward Elric/Roy Mustang.)

People who wish to leave a specific prompt at this point can leave one either for a pairing, or for a single character. Examples:

Full Metal Alchemist
Edward Elric
Roy Mustang
clash of tempers

OR:

Full Metal Alchemist
Edward Elric
what was sacrificed



People can leave fic at any point in this tree - they can write random fic for a single character, random fic for any of the character pairings, or fic in response to one of the prompts.

Full Metal Alchemist
Edward Elric
Ed fic can go here

Roy Mustang
Ed/Roy fic can go here

clash of tempers
or Ed/Roy "clash of tempers" fic can go here



Points to remember:
  • Make sure if you're responding to a pairing by itself that you leave your fic as a reply to the pairing; if you're responding to a specific prompt, leave your comment as a response to the prompt. Also remember, in the above example, if you want to leave a prompt for Roy Mustang by himself or pair him with a different character, start a new comment tree.

  • Yes, you are free to request crossovers - if you want to, say, pair Ed up with Lelouch from Code Geass (idek, okay), just reply to the Ed comment with "Lelouch (Code Geass)".

  • As I mentioned, please use the subject lines to clarify the pairing!

  • Please add "FIC" to the subject line if you are posting fic, so that people can easily distinguish between fic and prompts! Ex: "FIC: Ed/Roy"

  • ALSO, I'm going to ask that if you're writing porn, please add "[MA]" to the subject line for your comment fic, so that people who don't want to read smut can skip it. Ex: "FIC: Ed/Roy [MA]". (HOWEVER, this is forwarning to everyone: I am sure that some of us are going to forget about the porn warning on occasion, so you may well stumble across something that squicks you. If this is a truly horrible thought, you may want to skip this challenge.)

  • Yes, you are free to respond to your own characters/pairings/prompts with a pairing/prompt/fic, if you want. And yes, multiple people can respond to the same characters/pairings/prompts.

  • And one additional thing - you may feel free to add on to another person's prompt! Like, for example, maybe you saw "clash of tempers", and you'd like to add "in bed," just reply to the original prompt with your addition. (hurr all my examples are retarded)


I will leave some prompts to start with so everyone can look and see what I'm on about! If you are still confused after that, ask any questions here. I will be leaving the challenge open for about 3 weeks, so you have until near the end of August!
