Prompt post

(Probably) Everything you need to know to participate:

Okay, so here we go: Starting TODAY, Tuesday, November 27 and running through next Friday, December 7 EVERYONE can come HERE and leave a prompt for some of-the-BAD sex-related scenario they'd like to see. Prompts can be as specific (Clark and Lex are having shower sex when Lex hits his head on the shower rod, with the head trauama leading Lex to believe he's a baby bird and Clark is his mother) or general (Supernatural. Lube accident.) as you want.

(almost all of the below is stolen straight from estrella30 and highwaymiles. Thanks for letting me plagarize, baby):

Things to remember:

1. You can submit at many prompts for as many fandoms as you'd like. Comment once with ten prompts, or ten seperate times. Comment today, and then if you think of more, comment again tomorrow.

2. You don't have to be a writer to submit prompts. Once the master list is up and posted, people who want to write can pick one prompt from the ideas that they're going to write. Once that prompt is taken it's given to that specific person and off the list for everyone else.

3. Remember, be as broad or as general as you like. Some people like more prodding and direction in writing, others like to be a little more free. Variety is the spice of bad sex!

4. Prompts/the resulting stories can be rated G to XXX. Slash, het, gen, WHATEVER. You got an idea? Put it out there. Sometimes bad sex doesn't even involve actual sex. Use your imagination!

The format for making prompts is this:

1. Comment here, in this post with your prompts. PLEASE, when you comment format it like this:

Stargate Atlantis- It turns out Rodney is allergic to edible underwear

Supernatural - Dean/Sam. Leg cramp.

etc. If you have any other suggestions or ideas, please put them UNDER the wonderfully neat list of prompts you've given me. It'll be easier for me when making the master list if I can just skim the posts and grab all the prompts from the very top of your comments, ok?

2. In addition to fandom specific prompts, you can make general bad-sex-related prompts. These could be lyrics from songs, lines of dialogue from movies, TV shows, books, spam emails etc, that you want to leave more open for people. An example of this would be:

General - "Its just that all men are sure it never happened to them and all women at one time or other have done it so you do the math."

General - "You and me baby ain't nothin' but mammals/so let's do it like they do on the discovery channel."

Dates:

Start commenting TODAY! Now! I will leave this post open until next Friday!

Once I compile the list I will make another admin post letting you all know the list is up and to start grabbing your prompts! That will run for a few days as well.

After the prompts are grabbed we'll start the writing. I'm aiming to get everything set up and your prompts assigned by before Christmas, and then you'll have through at LEAST February 29 to write your fic. I am not going to be terribly strict about the deadline. Y'all aren't getting graded here. Basically: aim for 2/29 but post whenever you want after that. Okay? Okay.

Fics will need to be at least 500 words and can be as long as you like.

Most importantly - spread the word! Tell your friends! Your enemies! And remember: bad sex happens to everyone. Even really, really hot fictional characters.
