Okay, so Sofia and I have made an attempt to throw out a little goofy challenge to liven things up and let chance to be a little silly. It's not a competition or actually all that good! Lol, I think the crack!fic comes a little easier than challenge prompts!
It's not serious whatsoever, and these really are just some goofy prompts, if they inspire other things then it's all part in the same, go with it and get to posting! Hopefully something will be there for your particular fandom and your particular genre, but if not make something up! Lol. If there's interest in a goofy one we'll start looking at what we can seriously think up to throw out, and of course take any suggestions and ideas too.
Have at it!
Oh and if you want to add anything, just comment it in :)
1 - Hidden/surprising talents
Basically what it says on the tin. Ever thought of a talent that one of the ladies in your fandom could have? Figured Olivia could paint or Alex could sing. Maybe Calleigh could play the guitar or Emily could wield the pottery wheel or some such thing? Maybe even a stranger talent? Who knows! This is where you get to find out what our girls can really do off company time!
2 - The song challenge
What’s a good challenge without a few songs chucked into the mix? No rules, you don’t have to write anything within the time but stick to one song and we dare you to make it relevant to the lyrics. You don’t have to though. This is your excuse to write about your OTP to that song you’ve been imagining them to!
You can pick your song, but here are a few suggestions too.
My Sharona - The Knack
Rest In Pieces - Saliva
The Reason - Hoobastank
Collide - Howie Day
Gotta Be Somebody - Nickleback
Oh My God - Pink
Only When I Loose Myself - Depeche Mode
Thank You - Dido
Iris - Goo Goo Dolls
We dunno…we tried to keep it neutral and not bombard you with all the music from our iTunes lists! Just go with it, there’s no rules about songs. Happy. Sad. Funny. Deep…whatever you want poppet’s just have at it.
3 - The dialogue challenge
A - ‘’Your Honor, defense counsel should not be allowed to ask questions without the supervision of a responsible adult.’’
B - ‘’Your girlfriend just took advantage of me.’’ ‘’Oh, I so did not. You challenged me to [insert game of choice] and you lost. Suck it up looser!’’
C - ‘’So, I see you’ve decided to take your frustration out on the innocent vodka. Interesting option.’’ ‘’Well, it was either this or taking my frustration out on your bed with you.’’ ‘’I’m up for the latter.’’
D - ‘’My ass is going numb sitting here.’’ ‘’Thought you were quiet!’’ ‘’Did you just call me an ass?’’ ‘’You’re quick for a [insert profession of choice].’’ ‘’That’s cruel. Very cruel! Least I’m a cute ass.’’ ‘’I’m inclined to agree.’’
E - ‘’Thanks [name], I owe you a beer.’’ ‘’Well then, I’ll have to start doing more favors for you. If you owe me enough you’ll have to take me to dinner.’’
F - ‘’Oh my god!’’ ‘’What?’’ ‘’You have a tattoo!’’ ‘’You failed to notice that last night?’’ ‘’Well I was a little busy, wasn’t I! You are the last person I expected to have a tattoo. Especially there!’’
G - ‘’Who is that with [name]?’’ ‘’Why, you jealous?’’ ‘’No!’’ ‘’Trust your girl, do ya?’’ ‘’Of course.’’ ‘’Still jealous though, aren’t ya?’’ ‘’No! Of course not. Maybe a little…’’
H - ‘’Do not put that up there!’’
I - ‘’Get on your knees.’’
J - ‘’Happy birthday baby, open your present!’’
3 - The AU challenge
Again, pretty much what it says on the tin. Explore your whacky alternatives to our gun wielding, fingerprint dusting, hot justice fighters babes whilst the opportunity is here!
4 - The inappropriate couples challenge
Either fandoms that just seem so out of reach its insane. Or give your OTP a breather. Or go for the downright disturbing of evil characters or side characters that make you shudder and cringe!
