Wipe that look of horror off your face this is going to be fun!
*gets out clipboard*
So what we're doing here, although it's called the Fic Challenge, is just a bit of fun. We have come up with some ideas below and we want you to add your own and expand on them. You don't HAVE to write comment fic (although it is entirely encouraged and we may in fact have a prize waiting for eager participants!) - it could be as simple as "OMG, imagine Dean has to actually negotiate with
The Rules:
The first rule of fic challenge is....YOU MUST TALK ABOUT FIC CHALLENGE (*giggles* I couldn't resist, sorry)
There are two kinds of prompts below, shippy and non-shippy. This is just how my brain arranged them, there's nothing to say you can't mix them about or try different things and you don't have to make your prompts in the same way.
If you feel like talking at length about anything please do so but put your prompt in bold in case there are people who don't want to hear exactly how you came to the idea.
No RPS! Although personally Wincest squicks us out like crazy it's too canon to ban. But this is my fic asylum so I can squarely put my foot down and say No RPS. Do not make me lecture you on why.
So grab your fishing rod, pick up a prompt and get to writing – you never know, one might have a lucky number written on its belly!
Non-Shippy Prompts
Happy Families
Sam & Dean are just two regular, well-adjusted brothers – they have their own likes and interests and meet for friendly, supportive chats.
Don’t you just love crack fic! Explore this idea as deliriously as you like or take a big old gulp of canon and show us just why this isn’t the case.
Brotherly Love
*immediately ducks Wincest* Nope, this didn’t get lost on its way to the shippy section – this is about actual brotherly love. We’ve had plenty of insight into Sam and Dean’s relationships over the years but how do the others get along? Do demons have friends and allegiances? How does Castiel get on with other angels? What does one shape-shifter say to another?
Pick any of the sideline characters and consider their family, their connections to the world and to each other.
I know I’ve changed on the outside…
The life of a demon is not an easy one, jumping from one vessel to the next – getting used to the new bodies.
Consider the process of possession from a demon’s point of view.
Tricking Myself
So canon likes to turn around on itself and flip things about and The Trickster turned out to The Archangel Gabriel.
Try a little revisionist history and consider what The Trickster really thought when he first met Sam and Dean.
If Ever I Would Leave You
Saying goodbye isn’t easy, then again - sometimes it’s too easy.
Write about one of the times little Sam ran away, or how one of the guys leaves. Or explain how it’s never going to happen, co-dependent relationship and all…
Hunters Handbook: Monsters and Ghosts and Demons – oh my!
Every hunter seems to have their own reference books, hell Bobby has a whole library of supernatural lore!
It’s about time someone put all this down in a single, handy reference book for hunters.
Sign of the Cross
Supernatural crossovers are aplenty and who are we to stop it?
Which of the shows you watch would you like a crossover with, who would go to what universe? What would happen?
Oh and yes, this is the last post before the shippy prompts for a reason, you know you cross-ship so don’t let me stop you.
Shippy Promps
Sammy loves Chuck – IDST.
No-one loves a Yellow-Eyed Demon
Prove me wrong
Holy-Water on tap
Holy Water isn’t easy to come across in large quantities, suggest how the boys might obtain some holy water (it doesn’t have to be shippy but *points* a
Hunters Handbook: Etiquette for the hunter on the road
A more intimate look at the Hunter’s Handbook: blow-by-blow you might say.
Random Ship Generator
You know you want to just randomly group people – if you need help go play this game and write about the first two people you turned over!
Heartbreak
Being on the road all the time makes relationships hard, write about one of the ones that just couldn’t last between a
Angels and Demons
It’s so obvious even the show is doing it. Who would you pair up and how would it go?
So that’s all we’ve got for now but the ball is rolling right towards you!
