Wow. Prompts are amazing this year. I love your #1 and your #3 fic prompts :)

[silburygirl]

I usually hate hate hate coming up with prompts because I tend to have one that I love and have to force myself to come up with others, but this round I love them all equally...ish...

I'm with Cilla. I love your first and third prompts. The idea of Hermione in China is very intriguing.

I really don't know much about China, but what I do know is fascinating, so it would be neat to learn something cultural from my exchange gift! (Not to mention, if there is anywhere ripe with dragon lore...)

In my former career, I worked with a liaison in the Chinese government and had the occasion to arrange a high-level trip from the states to Beijing. It was a fascinating cultural exploration before-hand, and if your 'authorial match' chooses this route, I will relish the cultural details!

Jealouzzz... I'd love to go to China, especially to see the non-industrialised parts before the environment is completely destroyed.

::nods:: There is some very beautiful and unspoilt countryside to be seen. I have a close friend who is a geologist and is in the Chinese hinterlands a couple of times a year. He absolutely loves it, and the stories he tells are amazing.

Props for #2 adressing the much more common threesome-make-up from the male wish list! Making it a one time gift also limits the problems of keeping it realistic and psychologically plausible compared to a polyamoury relationship.

#3 is really cool. I've studied Sinology and lived in China for a while - the only thing really difficult seemed to me the "not knowing Hermione"-part. Then the plot-bunny attacked.... I really should stop reading all the prompts, way too many great ones with way too many plots invading my brain^^

art prompts are amazing...
