PROMPTING FOR THE SALT AND PEPPER FEST IS
Before you run off to leave us all your fab prompts, please check out the general rules for this fest and the prompting guidelines below!
Prompt Guidelines
1. Anyone can leave a prompt regardless of whether or not you're planning on claiming one. Submitting a prompt doesn't commit you to anything.
2. You can leave up to seven prompts. Prompts can be in the same comment or listed separately.
3. Prompts must be relevant to the theme of this community - any canon character at 50+. (i.e. a prompt focusing on Harry as a young parent would not fit.)
4. That said, we want all sorts of prompts! Fluffy, angsty, light or dark, gen, slash, femslash, het, threesome/moresome, character studies, mysteries, drama, comedy--anything goes!
5. Keep in mind that this is not a gift exchange. Your name will not be listed with your prompt in the claiming stage or when the fest is posting. Claimers will also be able to deviate from the prompt if their muse goes in a different direction (switch out characters, go with a different overall tone, etc.)
6. Prompts may be edited for clarity.
7. Prompting is open now until the end of Sunday, Nov 17th (midnight, EST). We'll edit this post when prompting is closed.
Prompt Form
Leave your prompts by filling out this form in a comment below!
Brief explanation of the form:
Prompt: Can be as simple (word, phrase, song lyric) or as specific as you like. Please do not outline an entire plot, however. :D
Suggested Characters/Pairings: This is optional and can be left blank if you'd like!
Theme/Tone: Fluffy, angsty, etc. The overall mood. Also can be left blank if you'd like!
Additional Info: Here you can leave likes, dislikes, squicks, or anything else that doesn't fit above, but keep in mind that as this is not a gift, creators will not be required to stick strictly to these things. Also optional and can be left blank if you'd like!
no subject
Date: 2019-11-14 04:28 pm (UTC)Suggested Characters/Pairings: Neville with either Harry, Ron, or Draco
Theme/Tone: Romance, getting!together, smut
Additional Info:
Prompt: Severus didn't expect it to last a month, let alone 30 years. But here they are, with Harry turning 50 and the two of them still going strong together.
Suggested Characters/Pairings: Severus/Harry
Theme/Tone: Romance
Additional Info: A 'slice of life' approach might be lovely here. Birthday smut could also be fun, if you want to go there. Snarky!Severus is always win.
Prompt: They survived a war, teaching, and dating each other. Now, they just want to retire together in peace.
Suggested Characters/Pairings: Severus/Remus
Theme/Tone: Romance
Additional Info:
Prompt: They're older, wiser, and still can't bloody stand each other. Except when no one else is around and they can drop the act.
Suggested Characters/Pairings: Severus/Sirius
Theme/Tone: Smut, opposites attract
Additional Info:
Prompt: She's heard all the terrible things people say about them. Even in the wizarding world, a 25-year gap was a bit much. But they're both too old to care what anyone else has to say about it - they work together, and they're happy.
Suggested Characters/Pairings: Lucius/Hermione
Theme/Tone: Romance
Additional Info:
Prompt: Getting ready for a date.
Suggested Characters/Pairings: Hermione/Lavender
Theme/Tone: Romance, fluff
Additional Info: Would love for one to get caught up watching the other getting ready, just appreciating all the little ways that age has touched her.
Prompt: They dated when they were younger, but they'd each been dealing with too much to make it work, at the time. Now, they've been friends for years, and that was fine... Until a couple glasses of wine bring them closer together again.
Suggested Characters/Pairings: Any - grab your OTP and fly!
Theme/Tone: Romance, angst, hurt/comfort, getting!together
Additional Info: It would be nice if this had a happy ending for them. And absolute love if there was some pining happening from one or both of them over the years they were just friends.
