Weekend Challenge- Imagine Your OTP... and person/place/or thing.

[thatwasjustadream.dreamwidth.org]

Hi there! It's Blursday again (my favorite term I've learned since this WFH thing started)... *but* this Blursday is the start of the weekend for me and that's still a thing to celebrate. Hope it is for you, too

MY BABIES DEMAND I REQUEST A PROMPT. I mean.. me please ;)

As for the second set.. surprise me!

[ext_4084645]

Why, those pushy devils. :) Well, they asked for it, so...

Scenarios:
A character must suddenly travel to a distant location.
An awkward veterinarian and a funny royal begin bonding over a common interest.
A character finds their love interest in a compromising situation!

Places:
Unimack Island, Alaska
Arapahoe, Nebraska
Lake Mackay, Northern Territories Australia

BAHAHA

Okay.. technically, and bizarra can attest... I've written them into all three of those situations. well.. he wasn't a vet

But I'll see what I can do.

[ext_4084645]

Ha- I was going to say, what are the odds. But, so close. Lol. Let me know if you'd like new options, though, I can fire some up!

I have been awful filling my weekend challenge prompts BUT you always find the most perfect prompts for my trio of weirdos so please?

And for the second part: things, please.

[ext_4084645]

I hope these inspire! And don't get them into too much trouble. Maybe a *little* trouble, though. ;)

The lead character sees a cute carpenter in a new light.
A major character is informed they are a parent!
A new job leads to an exciting new relationship.

And for things:
A piano
An oil painting on canvas
An armchair

[asphaltcowgrrl]

Oh my... all three of those are ripe with both angst and chaos! (And I've actually been toying with that middle idea for a year or more now and I'm sure you can guess which one will get accused. LOL)

[ext_4084645]

Angst and Chaos! My two favorite instigators for fanfic, lol.

Yes, I did immediately envision Zayne, lol. Hmm..... 'accused' suggests he won't end up being the papa, though. Still...plenty of room for agita.

I'm in! I really need to write something again haha. And Blursday is such a good word, I love it!

[ext_4084645]

I hear you! I have WIPs that need posting, dang it. I really must write this weekend. Meantime, I hope this inspires!

A character finds a love interest in a difficult situation.
The magic in the air turns out to be more than figurative!
A geeky cab driver meets a quirky biologist. (well, that's pretty specific!)

PS- Blursday is featured in a really interesting post - one I found featured in a Dreamwidth group I subscribe to. Worth a read: http://sunsinherbranches.net/2020/04/19/we-are-all-in-mythological-time/

I'll be a masochist...
I'll take the 3 scenarios, as well as a person, place, and thing...and we'll see what I can cobble together

[ext_4084645]

Ha. Yeah, I hear you - I'm good at that myself: not enough time or focus, but I keep putting out bunny food. :)

Your scenarios:
A character does something completely out of character, and everyone must figure out why.
A protagonist turns out to have been evil all along!
A minor character looks after an injured major character.

And then, there's this:
Person: A Pop Star
Place: Loch Monar, Scotland
Thing: A helmet

[agdhani]

missing 2 scenarios...can't fit it all here but its most of it

[ext_4084645]

That's great! :) Glad the prompts provided words. It's always notable to me that it's really easy to fall into a scene you've written - even though I have no idea where it's coming from. The context is most deftly woven in, and it's an intriguing little world. Very well done.

[bizarra]

What the heck, I’ll play!!

I’ll also do the person, place, or thing. Why not.

[ext_4084645]

Excellent! Hope these bring on the fic. :)

Scenarios:
A character helps someone overcome an emotional trauma.
Characters in a fantastic world or job/life mission suddenly find themselves living perfectly ordinary lives for some reason.
A character gets away to a rustic village and meets a quirky person who might be trouble.

And here's a mix for you:
Person: A professor
Place: Loyalty Island, The Coral Sea
Thing: A long satin ribbon
