The Prompt List of Epic Win
Well done, my friends, well done! Here is the fabulous list of prompts you all came up with for the Gen Fic Battle.
A Quick Note: All prompts are reproduced here as first submitted. Some seem like they'd be great for a porn battle (or perhaps that's just my dirty mind at work), so please keep in mind that in all fics produced, sex or a romantic pairing shouldn't necessarily be the FOCUS or POINT. But exploring how certain couplings and relationships affected other aspects of Kara's life or made her realize something about herself could be very interesting. Therefore a prompt like "first frak" should be about more than just the actual sex.
OK without further ado, here are your prompts. Get those thinking caps on and the battle will begin at midnight July 15! (Comments are currently disabled, but please PM me or post elsewhere on this comm if I managed to miss one of your prompts in my compiling efforts or if you just have other/more questions.)
