Dinobots...ate...brain...
Y'know...I figure the easiest way to chase the Dinobots out of my brain is to threaten to write 100 fanfics about them. ;) So at lunch today...I created a 100 fanfic challenge for myself. Since I don't really like most of the prompts for the "official" challenge, I instead used various prompt generators to randomly give myself 100 words/phrases, mostly one-word adjectives. Then, I used a die to randomly assign a Dinobot to each prompt. (1=Grimlock, 2=Slag, 3=Sludge, 4=Snarl, 5=Swoop, 6=All of them) I came up with some interesting stuff, actually.
1. Mistake (All)
*gasp!* They NEVER make mistakes. NEVER! :D
2. Need (Sludge)
"Prismacolors! My kingdom for some Prismacolors!"
3. Grumpy (Snarl)
'Cuz that, like, NEVER happens. :)
4. Loud (Sludge)
Irony! Well, only because "my" Sludge is not particularly loud. Ah well. I guess he can be. :)
5. Bitter (All)
Not them, noooooo...
6. Beginnings (Snarl)
"In the beginning, there was Snarl, and he was...not very good."
7. Damaged (Slag)
'Cuz that, like, NEVER happens! *echo*

Well, they ARE children, so I guess that one won't be too hard...
15. Toasted (Slag)
This just works on so many different levels, including the colloquial. *rofl*
16. Grudge (All)
Oh yeah. Dinobots vs. Constructicons FTW. Maybe. Then again, given my utter lack of action/combat-writing skills, I guess we'll just have to see...
17. Forgiveness (Grimlock)
He's...not too good at that, actually. It would have been very easy if he alone had gotten "grudge," in fact.
18. Alone Together (Slag & Swoop)

Snarl the Conspiracy Theorist. I can totally dig it. Seriously!
30. Trapped (Slag)

47. Addiction (Grimlock)
Hmmm...Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...
48. Protocol (Swoop)
