Another Prompts Request, Harry/Draco

Pretty much Man's Best Friend was some of the best times I ever had writing. I'm trying to write more for [livejournal.com profile] lynnevitational, but it's definitely going to be late. Anyway, the problem is that I like it so much I'm all serious about it now. I got the prompt from when I asked which fics I would never write. Come on, it was Angel gets a freakin' *puppy*, people; I don't know how to take that seriously (thank you [livejournal.com profile] jgracio). And because I couldn't take it seriously I came up with some stuff I really liked. Thus endeth the whining section of our program.

Now for the requesty part! I don't have that many Harry/Draco friends, but if you read them/like them/know them at all! Here is your place to give me a crack prompt for H/D. It can be as cracktastic as you like! Something you think could never be written! Or no one would want to write! As cracktastic as this! I can't say I'll actually write it, but I need to stop stressing about that Eighth Year fic I want to write and can't because I'm way too serious about it. Only H/D, guys. I feel very bad for all the Buffy people on my friendslist, and even worse for the few of you here for other reasons, but I can't get them off my head.

ETA: I didn't realize this until now. But if you have any crack prompts that could take place at Hogwarts, right after DH, with Harry and co. returning to make up that 7th year--I'd be more likely to do that. Thanks!

And/Or! Go leave your crack prompts at [livejournal.com profile] hd_inspired, here, and maybe other people will pick them up. There needs to be more crack there, people! Do the world a service like a good samaritan.

I'm still working on the drabble prompts. If you want to submit one, please do, just leave the fandom off. Thank you!

Yay!

I might end up writing that for hd_holidays if the recipient's requests fit it
Hee! I was wondering whether I was the only one who had ideas first and then hope fest requests fit them later. It's not like I don't try to write for my person, but the main reason I'm trying to do fests is I have all these ideas and I just can't commit to finishing them.

yes, the prompts post at hd_inspred is almost like a fest in its own right. :D
Yeah, I sorta wish stuff like that happened more often--where everyone's talking and excited and inspiring each other.

And I'll totally read that post, just not now because I have to go to work. :)
Er...I was serious about not really expecting people to read it! That post (and some others for other fandoms) has really just become a placeholder for my ideas/personal notes. But if you wanna read it you can. Parts would probably be incomprehensible and if you're interested you might get spoiled for things I still might write, but I'd be interested to know what someone thought of some of them. So, *shrugs* *waves arms in inexplicable gesticulations*

For me, it is not. Although, the 'can't commit' part sort of rings true. :P I just have so many ideas archived that I usually start with browsing through my bunnies and seeing if there are ideas that fit my recipient's requests. See, most of my bunnies aren't fully formed fic ideas, and I usually end up combining two or three of them for the fest fic and then I'm happy I was able to get rid of them that way. ^____^ I do always swear to myself when a fic commitment is over that I am going to write on my own, but that somehow never happens.

Oh, you know, I've started reading it when I went to your journal after the reveal of hd_holidays to see who you are, but stopped because, as you said, I didn't want to be spoiled in case you wrote them. But you still didn't and I have a feeling you're like I am in that regard, and need some prodding and poking to start writing any of them. :) Are you going to sign up to hd_hols this year?

Yeah, I sorta wish stuff like that happened more often--where everyone's talking and excited and inspiring each other.

Definitely!

Yeah, I do the browse through the ideas thing and then mix and match to do something that fits and get rid of some ideas at the same time, too. I just can't seem to finish fics any other way. I didn't have that problem in other fandoms. I think I'm intimidated by H/D because I don't understand them the way I did my other ships/characters/interests.

I'm signing up for hd_hols but have to do the lottery so I might not get to. I understand why they tightened it up like that but the thought that I might not get to play makes me sad. Are you reserved a spot? Can't remember whether you've done it more than once or not.

[identity profile] grey-hunter.livejournal.com 2008-06-21 01:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, I have a reserved spot. I said in the poll that I would most likely sign up but that I'll decide later. Now, with this new bunny hopping around in my head, I decided that I want to. I hope you get in as well. And for that, I won't read all your plots in that post because you might write one for hd_hols. :D

I'm glad you say you're probably going to write for hd_hols! But yeah, if you don't want to get spoiled I wouldn't read that list. But thanks for your interest.
