~mod post~ Prompt extension

Hello fandom!

We're going to extend the drabble prompt until next Wednesday, the 12th. Everyone has been so busy and things are a bit slow right now, so we thought that no one would mind if we spent another week drabbling about Justin :)

I also have a favor to ask. As you can see, we're on prompt #90 (YAY!) and so far we've managed to come up with a unique prompt each week. Which is kind of hard sometimes because we want a prompt that inspires everyone to participate and yet is broad enough as to not constrain anyone's creativity. My favor is this; if you have any ideas that you’d like to see considered as prompts, please leave a comment and I’ll add them to my list of prompt ideas. Thanks for your help.

Also, thanks to britin1729 and cuethepulse for drabbling this week and helping spread the Justin love!

	there are some idea....i would mind seeing you repeat...especially considering the new people who come and write. you might want to look back through prompts 1-40 or so and see which ones were big hits and revisit them. :D i'm sorry i haven't written anything...and the prompt is even justin...how very wrong of me. i shall try this week!

Why no, I don't think it has. That's a great idea. *adds to list*

One that I really want to repeat from the bj_action comm is the frottage and hair prompt. Those fics were so hot. I don't know if that would work for a drabble though.

I thought the Justin prompt would send everyone into a drabble writing frenzy. I'm still keeping my fingers crossed that it might happen :)

There's definitely not been blue lights or frottage, but there has been hair!porn already.

The only prompts I can recall being repeated are pride, diner and crossovers. I think we've done self-insertion twice too. Pride was the first one I wrote for and we did it again this year. I personally hope we never do crossovers again...I can't write them.

I love the prompts where you use random words...I always enjoy writing those. I also *loved* the quotes prompt where you take a line from the show and use it out of context.

We've done a S1 and S3 prompt, but I'd also like one for the other seasons. We did a 216-220 specific theme, but not just general S2, S4 and S5. I think hospitals, weddings and funerals would be good ones too, even though I'm sure a lot of fans would balk at funerals.

	Excellent ideas! furiously scribbles them down It always seems like I'm rushing around on Wednesday nights trying to think up a prompt. I need to take some time and go back through the drabbles and really look at what's been done. I like the idea of the quote out-of-context prompt. I'll have to check the archives.

	justin usually would have created a frenzy....but it's just a weird time with everything. feel free to borrow from bj_action. most porny ideas can be converted to drabbles. also. i would love to see some specific episode prompts, i love drabble gapfillers. or arc prompts if you feel it's too limiting for just one episode. although i don't think it is.

	I'm not sure what's been done before...Here are some thoughts....I tried to think of some prompts that may have multiple meanings: (not all do, obviously :D) Reservations Bubbles Ice Internet Jeans Candle (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Question: Is this prompt 91 or does it stay at 90? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Hey! I forgot to answer this ~~blames it on my age~~. It's still #90. (Reply to this) (Parent)
