Female Character Trope Fest and Fic Drop

[kiki_eng]

such_heights is running a Female Character Trope Fest! I am pretty excited about this. Multimedia! Tropes! Gen! Femslash!

Fill-posting starts tomorrow, the 25th April (midday BST/GMT+1) and the prompt post has been open for about a week now. There are some really awesome prompts over there.

I'm planning on heading over there later today and reading ALL the prompts. ...and then leaving 2 or 3 of my own when I decide what I want. I'm thinking maybe soulbonds or werewolves or curtain!fic. (I am made of indecision.) I'm also planning on writing something. You should write something, or draw something, or crochet something, or compose an epic picspam or something.

I'm going to talk about kradamadness briefly. It's a thematic monthly multimedia challenge community for Kradam* and it is an extraordinarily friendly and enthusiastic place. It is also fiendishly well-organised. It brings me a lot of joy.

The prompts I've been leaving over there recently have been amusing me far too much. Last month's theme was "Movies" and I don't really want to know how many times I went "He writes the novelisations." and then cackled madly to myself because I am a terrible, terrible person. This month's theme is "Heroes". My mind went to Bonnie Tyler, so I left a prompt, snickered a lot and then at about 3h two weeks later ended up writing it.

Untitled, unbetaed ficlet, PG-13, 439 words, alternate meeting
"Adam needs a hero. Adam is holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night."

"Adam needs to stop referring to himself in third person and quoting Bonnie Tyler," says Brad. "It's unattractive."

(I had a morning after with this fic. It has been very weird.)
