Welcome! This is a challenge based around the concept of more than two people going at it at any one time. Basically, we have a prompt table of 18 threesomes and (despite the name) 6 foursomes. Now, contrary to what you may believe, we do have some rules.
1.) Only take one suggestion at a time. Please claim in the comments. If you change your mind, or decide that you don’t want to write the fic, please tell us ASAP so that we can put the pairing back up.
2.) In addition, only one person may take a submission at a time. Variety is the spice of life (hence the threesome/foursome love), so take something else.
3.) You can be as creative as you like with the threesomes. For example, if you chose A/B/C, you can have A/B and B/C in the same fic with no A/C. Or you can have all three. Whatever.
4.) However, for the foursomes, I’d like to ask that you don’t just go A/B and C/D. Because that is boring. And don’t just have A/B and B/C and leave poor old D out.
5.) Otherwise, go crazy. You can be as imaginative as you want. Having everyone cheat on each other and then decide the best way to deal with it is to hop into bed together? Good. Have an angsty fic where everything’s taken seriously? Fair game. A story where Nimueh is, in her icy little heart, secretly a slash fangirl and uses her magic to make the boys have sex? Not only allowed but practically mandatory now that I think about it. AUs, genderflip, 100,000 word epics, ANYTHING IS ALLOWED. As long as it follows the other rules, I mean.
6.) When you’ve finished the stories, please reply to your original comment with a link. Do NOT post the story in the comments. Not even if it’s really short.
