Merry Prompting!

As Christmas is nearing I see a lot of people making Secret Santas, and I feel jealous because I really want to join, but I unfortunately don't have the proper time for any deadlines that are not set by myself: plus, I cannot choose between fandoms and I cannot participate in all of them. So instead, I thought, why not make my f-list prompt me?

It doesn't have to be Christmas-related. It can be a word, a picture or just an idea you'd like to see from me. It doesn't even have to be fics, it can be graphics too (not so good at those though, but learning!) or, as an alternative idea, you can get me to send you a Christmas-card, here from little Denmark in my prettiest handwriting (which really isn't pretty at all, but I'll try!). My main point is to just fill up my journal at Christmas-time with gifts for all of you lovely people!

As I said, prompt me with anything but:
- Do it for a fandom that you know I'm in: it can be one I have never written a fic for before, but I have to be in it
- You can prompt me with any pairing or character you like
- As well as any genre
- I'm allowed to say no or negotiate! I hate to do this to you, but I suffer from RL friends who would jump at the opportunity to make me do  something I suck at, so please don't hate me if I'm all: 'guuuuhh, no, I can't do your prompt!' There's very little that would make me say that though
- You can prompt me as many times as you like, for as many different fandoms as you'd like. THE MORE THE MERRIER! or something
- Even if we aren't friends or mutual friends here, but you stumbled upon this journal by chance, feel free to prompt me anyway. I'm really very friendly ;-)
- (also, I'm planning on all of YOU doing something like this one day. So I can pounce on you and make you write even more!)

Soooo, I think that was it. I know I posted this early, but think of it as an opportunity to come up with something challenging or fun or... just to annoy me as you spam my life in December. Did I mention that you're lovely?

Giiiiiiiifts \o/! Hm, I think I'd like a fic. Although I don't know what exactly at the moment. Something non-shippy, but friendshippy and egnerally happy would be nice. I know I recently had an idea what I would like to read, but I can't remember :o(! It would have to be short, because can't concentrate on long fics these days. Um... I'll be back later with the specifics, okay But so far, so doable, right?

I could make a layout or graphics in exchange.

Maybe something like my 'Rules of Regularity' almost-drabble thing? It's cracky Sherlock-John friendship involving a shrubbery ;) http://keep-counting.livejournal.com/49359.html#cutid1

As mentioned, I am willing to write almost anything, and can do friendship and humor anytime you like. You can also give me a word-limit, or say you want a set of drabbles if you'd rather ;)

Heh, I just had this image of you making a banner for this prompt-thing ;) only if you have the time of course, this is me being Santa after all (I've always found him so scary as a kid, but this is cool ;) )

Ah, thanks for the link. That was fun. Needed more snakes though. Snakes in a maze!

Oh, I love me some crack. I also love me some Sherlock. And Christmas is so comfortable. Yes, I think I'd like a slightly cracky Sherlock-John friendship fic set in 221b at Christmas. I'm even getting ideas for the ending: Lestrade visits, but not just to wish them a merry Christmas, no, he has a case for them. Sherlock is happy: "Oh, now it's really Christmas!"

But if you give me a persent, I should give you a present. What text would you like on your banner?

[identity profile] keep-counting.livejournal.com 2011-11-02 11:23 am (UTC)(link)
I could definitely do that! Christmas at 221b Baker Street ;-)

Um... uh, I dunno. Something along the lines of 'Nana's Christmas!' or maybe just 'Merry Christmas'. I am so uncreative right now, I really have no idea

[identity profile] keep-counting.livejournal.com 2011-11-03 07:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, I absolutely adore it! It's so pretty and christmass-y :D thank-you so much!

I feel like I should mention that I only took a stock picture, rearranged it a bit and put text on it.

[identity profile] keep-counting.livejournal.com 2011-11-04 07:36 am (UTC)(link)
Love it regardless ;)

[identity profile] litlover12.livejournal.com 2011-11-01 05:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Aw, how nice! How about an Elizabeth/Darcy story? :-)

[identity profile] keep-counting.livejournal.com 2011-11-01 06:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Ooooh, I haven't done one of those in a long while! I'd love to do that :D anything specific or should I just go with it?

[identity profile] litlover12.livejournal.com 2011-11-01 06:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, as long as it's not R-rated, pretty much anything is fine. (And with Austen you probably weren't going in that direction anyway! :-) )

Don't worry, once you've started Spooks, I'll harass you and make you write fic. ;)
No, joking, it's such a lovely idea you had here!

Actually I just had this crazy idea: how about a Christmas party on the Tardis? With Team Ten, obviously. And Donna insisting on decorating the Tardis and Ten going mad, and Jack coming along with drinks and the like... I realise it would be hard to make it fit in canon, but it can be AU, or make no sense at all, I don't mind. :D
Also I won't blame you if you don't feel like doing it!!

And you can prompt me back if you want. ;)

[identity profile] keep-counting.livejournal.com 2011-11-01 07:03 pm (UTC)(link)
LOL, I was all: 'will probably never write fic for RH' and then I did, and then I was all: 'will probably never write fic for DW' and then I DID, so I can with a 99% promise tell you that there will be Spooks-fic xD

Oooh, I could definitely do that! Canon, what canon?? I could so make it fit, and squeeze in a ton of other characters as well ;D all in the name of Christmas! Anything else, regulations on length? ;)

I've been hovering around wild_feelings actually. I might just take advantage of you saying that ;)

Sorry to but in, but you'll watch Spooks?

[identity profile] keep-counting.livejournal.com 2011-11-02 11:25 am (UTC)(link)
Yep, starting it this December when I've finished Doctor Who ;)

Oh god, I made a typo! I know you understood it anyway, but dammit, it bothers me. Anyway, yay for Spooks! I hope it's back on TV here soon, I want season 6.

[identity profile] the-silverdoe.livejournal.com 2011-11-01 08:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Haha, well I'm sure it would be great fic!

Yay! No regulations on length whatsoever, and squeeze everybody in if you want! I'd personally love Donna, Rose, Wilf and Jack, but I'd be happy with anybody!

Go for it! As long as I'm in the fandom, but we share quite a few, so I should be able to write you something. ;)

OHHHH THIS I LIKE LOVE!

Can I request a RH fic


(And as a bonus present, can I ask you to get onto your Spooks watch asap? =P)

I don't have time to do a whole prompt list thing myself, but I want to give you something in return, so if you have any icons/graphics/fic* you'd like, LIST AWAY! (No limits on how many btw, especially on icons =D)

*I tag this onto the end because I haven't written fic in a while and I'm not sure if I'd be able to write anything half-decent, but I'd give it a try if you wanted. Who knows, maybe a prompt would be enough to get me going again!

[personal profile] novindalf 2011-11-01 10:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Can't believe I forgot to actually include my prompt... *headdesk*

I'd love a fic about Guy and Isabella after they were exiled from Locksley. Would love it even more if there was something about Guy being a lovely protective older brother =)

[identity profile] keep-counting.livejournal.com 2011-11-02 03:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Oooh, I'd love to do that :D it spawned a few ideas immedeatly. Is it ok if it's sort of depressive (considering what we know from canon) but Guy gets a chance to be loveable still?

[identity profile] keep-counting.livejournal.com 2011-11-02 03:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank-you! I was wondering if the idea would be received well, but apparantly it did. Yay ;D

As soon as December's here ;) I'll watch 'End of Time' this friday and then finish s5-6 of Doctor Who in this months and then I promise you it's Spooks-time :D

(I'd love to see some fics from you, maybe Merlin? I need something happy after dark!s4 and something centering our favorite warlock would be great. I found a great short poem the other day, I'll prompt you with that later if it's alright? As for graphics, I adore anything you make, so just go ahead :D maybe christmas-related?)

[personal profile] novindalf 2011-12-21 01:31 pm (UTC)(link)
What was the poem you were going to prompt me with?

[identity profile] keep-counting.livejournal.com 2011-12-21 01:56 pm (UTC)(link)
For Merlin right? It was this by Shel Silverstein:

"My skin is kind of sort of brownish pinkish yellowish white. My eyes are greyish blueish green, but I'm told they look orange in the night. My hair is reddish blondish brown, but its silver when its wet, and all the colors I am inside have not been invented yet."

*blinks*

Uhh, okay I'll have to see if I can come up with something. I'm rather crap when it comes to poetry. (Unless it's Wordsworth because *ahem* LAKES!!!)

[identity profile] keep-counting.livejournal.com 2011-12-21 02:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Haha, you don't have to do it if it's too hard ;)
novindalf: (Default)

[personal profile] novindalf 2011-12-21 02:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Well I want to try =)

I now owe both you and M a birthday fic, so I want to get my debts paid...

[identity profile] keep-counting.livejournal.com 2011-12-21 02:20 pm (UTC)(link)
That's very sweet of you :D

[identity profile] sspring92.livejournal.com 2011-11-02 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
That's a dangerous thing to ask for prompts! ;) But I'll jump in. Of course for me it's Remus/Tonks (really my only current fandom or ship) I've always been a sucker for AU with little Teddy, and or Post transformation fics

[identity profile] keep-counting.livejournal.com 2011-11-02 03:50 pm (UTC)(link)
I can do both if you'd like? :) I would definitely love to do the last one, but Teddy has a very special place in my heart, so I'm always up for writing him. Anything specific you want/don't want to see?

[personal profile] kilodalton 2011-11-02 04:10 am (UTC)(link)
I'd love to see your take on a TenToo/Rose fic =)

If you want to leave me a prompt too, you can do so here =D

[identity profile] keep-counting.livejournal.com 2011-11-02 03:51 pm (UTC)(link)
I'd actually really love to do that. I'm probably one of the few who wasn't so keen on Handy, so it might resolve some of my issues with the storyline if I wrote something for them ;)
kilodalton: (Default)

[personal profile] kilodalton 2011-11-02 05:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Ha! Yeah I think at this point, most people probably like him, but there is definitely a contingent of fans who don't. (And also a contingent who started off disliking him, but wrote fic about him (like ZephyrHawk) and became a fan that way XD

As for me, I have built him up so much in my head canon such that, he is probably my favorite character in all of NuWho. To me, he's like Ten only better - same thoughts/feelings/intellect, but with a dash of human empathy and tact (that we sort of see hinted at in his scenes with Rose) that Ten definitely lacks. Like Ten-Plus! =D

[identity profile] keep-counting.livejournal.com 2011-11-02 06:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Ooh, I hope I can build him up like that one day. I'm so new to DW, and I watched 'Journey's End' just last week - I haven't even started properly mourning yet ;) But I figured that's what they where heading for: Ten, just human and therefore able to live a life with Rose without the wither-and-die-angst

[identity profile] myneonhearts.livejournal.com 2011-11-02 11:53 am (UTC)(link)
Ooh, I'm tempted to ask for a Christmas card :D You know what, I want one! I kindly ask you to send me a Christmas card from Denmark! Pretty please with a christmas cherry on top?

[identity profile] keep-counting.livejournal.com 2011-11-02 03:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Yep, you can have it ;) just PM me your adress and I'll get it done!

[identity profile] myneonhearts.livejournal.com 2011-11-02 04:39 pm (UTC)(link)
OMG, really! :D I thought maybe we could exchange cards, I dunno. You send me one from Denmark and I'll send you one from Bulgaria?

[identity profile] myneonhearts.livejournal.com 2011-11-02 07:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Great! :D

[identity profile] thymelady.livejournal.com 2011-11-05 09:34 pm (UTC)(link)
*sidles in and reads*

You haz all the good fandoooooms! 8-))))

And yet no G/M or SH/JW yet?? Hmmmm... How much more can you cope, skat??

Guy/Marian: Christmas gift shopping and delivering.

SH/JW: Christmas cleaning and decoration.

Or switch the prompts around if that's better inspiration! X-D

[identity profile] keep-counting.livejournal.com 2011-11-06 08:37 am (UTC)(link)
SH/JW? You do mean Sherlock Holmes/John Watson right? HOW COME I DID NOT KNOW YOU WERE A FAN!!

[identity profile] thymelady.livejournal.com 2011-11-06 06:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Geee, I dunno... ;-) I guess we got to know each other after the show had aired (I saw it streamed before it was sent in Sweden) and then I don't follow the SH comms, they're so hectic. I lose track of the little RH fandom if it gets dreanched in new and passionate fandoms, LOL! But trust me: I iz shipping! 8-)

[identity profile] keep-counting.livejournal.com 2011-11-07 06:26 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, that is true. I tend to skip over most of SH on my friends page, because there's just SO MUCH :P and your icon! *huggles*
