The Oakum Meme

Feb 01, 2012 10:49

Are there not situations in the books and the movie where, instead of asking yourself What happens next, your question is rather What happens in between?

In this meme we would like to hear of these situations. Just as oakum is used for packing the joints of timbers in wooden vessels, the requests and subsequent fanworks will tell those In-Between stories.

We invite Oakum prompts from the Aubreyad books and from the movie Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World.

Please to bold your prompts, and to include the title and, if possible, the chapter when you chose from the books. We welcome fic, artwork, vids of all ratings; in short your imagination shall know no bounds

prompts/requests and comments will be anonymous

We have not quite found a substitute for the lack of subject headers, apart from moving the meme completely to DW which we may have to do should this meme not work out. It is therefore going to be a bit more complicated. Please note:

Prompts only at this post.

In about a week, I will be reposting them in groups of five. Please post your replies to the prompts/requests at those regroup posts!

Thus we hope to avoid that all comments collapse once there are too many for the pages and the meme gets too difficult or next to impossible to navigate.

As you know by now, perfect_duet has a mirror comm at DW. The meme will be run at
perfect_duet. The only difference being that DW still has subject headers…so make good use of them.

*looks hopeful in each and every direction*

meme: oakum, prompts
