Bingo cards are always so tempting. :P

What exactly does the "indecent proposal" square mean, though? That is not a trope I'm familiar with.

the idea is loosely 'i'll give you a million pounds if you sleep with me' or some variation of the same #modlyknowledge

Ahh, thanks for the clarification.

but presumably any indecent proposal is okay, even if it isn't including money, but is a request or offer to sleep with someone?

Or do I have to better behaved about how freely I interpret prompts here than my usual cavalier attitude? Because I have an Element fic that would probably fit, but not if people have to offer money. Maybe it isn't indecent enough... It might be sort of a decent proposal?

This has the potential for loltastic results. And fantastic, too, depends on where you take it. Huzzah! (besides, you can probably write ficlets for this?)

It does, doesn't it? I'm really pleased with it - last time there seemed to be an awful lot of AU tropes on it, which isn't quite so much my thing for writing.

And, yes, the minimum is 500 words - plus I can icons instead, or a vidlet, a picspam, an essay, a set of recs or anything. It'll mostly be fic with me, though, but it's nice. And it's open till Oct 31st. (With an amnesty till the end of Dec.)

(You could get one? *looks hopeful*)

Ooooh. That sounds very convenient! And veyr pressure free, hurrah!

Getting one... hmm. I recently dropped out of a HP fest, realised I don't have the time/ motivation to write for it. BUT. Flexible deadlines and the possibility of ficlets... although I'd have to think about fandom motivation. *goes to have a look anyway*

You could do a couple of recs sets, too, if you don't manage enough ficlets - you only need five for a bingo!

(Sorry. I wasn't supposed to be signing up either... :lol:)

Thank you! It looked like fun earlier in the year when everyone else was doing it, but I think they've really improved on the selection of tropes this time - I do love my card!
