June 23-27 is Lonely Prompts Week!

In the past, we used to have a "winner" who completed the most fills every day, and at the end of the week, we'd announce an overall winner. But this time around, we're doing things differently! There are no winners or “losers”, just prompts that have been filled. At the end of the week, we'll be sharing a round-up post of all the lonely prompts that have been filled.

I’m on vacation until 7 July, so this week is all lonely prompts with no theme.

This week is a full week of free for all of filling lonely prompt week. Please try to only fill prompts have haven’t been filled.

Please number your fills when leaving more than one in a comment. This helps me when I'm ready to count them up.

To find those elusive Lonely Prompts, you can use LJ’s advanced search options to limit keyword results to only comments in this community. Fret not, DW members; we are working on a way to search through old entries for prompts for you! As of right now, the best way to search for a lonely prompt on DW is to search the community’s archive, which can be found [[HERE]].

While the use of LJ's advanced search and DW’s archive are options, bookmarking the links of prompts you like might work better for searching in the future.

To get things going, a few rules that I ask you all to follow.

1. You can only request five prompts to be filled.
2. You can request no more than three prompts from the same fandom.
3. You can, however, fill as many prompts as you'd like!
4. In the subject line, be sure to say whether this is a request or a fill!
5. You must link back to whatever the prompt is in the community logs (whether filling or requesting it be filled), and, if you're filling the prompt, please complete the fill as a response to the original prompt.
6. If you are filling an "any/any" prompt, please let us know what fandom (or, if original, say so!) you're using for the response.
7. If you filled any lonely prompts earlier this week, this is the place to share them!
8. Finally, we now have a community at AO3. If you have an AO3 account, please post your fills there. More information on how to do this is located at this link.

How to link:

Welcome in to those who've joined the challenge in the last few days. :)

Here's the 5th prompt. Have fun making words!

The challenge: Write a three-sentence story that involves the prompt and share it in the comments! The prompt doesn’t have to be used with the precise wording - just make sure it’s clear the prompt has inspired the piece.

There's no deadline on these stories, though sooner is better if you'd like others involved in the event to read and comment.

Day 5: Forgetting was never an option

recthething

Every Thursday, we have a community post, just like this one, where you can drop a rec or five in the comments.

This works great if you only have one rec and don't want to make a whole post for it, or if you don't have a DW account, or if you're shy. ;)

(But don't forget: you can deffo make posts of your own seven days a week. ;D!)

So what cool fancrafts/podfics/fics/fanart/fanvids/other kinds of fanworks have we discovered this week? Drop it in the comments below. Anon comment is enabled.

BTW, AI fanworks are not eligible for reccing at recthething. If you aware that a fanwork is AI-generated, please do not rec it here.

Fandom: Star Trek: Reboot
Characters/Pairings: James Kirk/Leonard 'Bones' McCoy
Rating: G
Length: n/a
Creator Links: storietellers on AO3
Themes: Female relationships, Domestic, Femslash

Summary: "Having fun, Bones?"
"Just working out the tension. You really keep it all in your wrists. Keep reading, darlin'. I wanna know what happens next."

Reccer's Notes:
The 'Everything is Femslash' exchange has just revealed creators, and this is a gorgeous artwork of Rule 63 (always a girl) Kirk and McCoy chilling out. The lighting is warm and their likenesses are really well done. It's relaxing just to look at.

Obtain refund on our Oyster cards

Not yet completed, but I have done what I can to this point. Transport for London issue Oyster cards, so, I followed the instructions on their website, since our cards are too old to apply that way, and phoned the number quoted. A very pleasant told me to email and gave me the email address. I emailed and got an acknowledgement, followed by a response requesting further details so they could identify me. I replied with the details two weeks ago, and have heard nothing since. I've now sent a further email asking for details and offering to send the cards to them.

I'm counting this as completion of 'Apply for refund on our Oyster cards'!

I mentioned in my last post here that I had repainted the face on one of my doll's house dolls, and I thought people might like to see some before/after photos. Here are the weird/scary faces the dolls came with.

Prospective Sherlock Holmes

Dr Watson 'before'

Under the cut for the repaints.

Challenge 264:
SUMMER VACATION

Ah, summer! It’s a good time for a nice vacation, a break from school, work, or our heroes’ usual adventures. Maybe there’s a traditional holiday or festival to attend, or maybe it’s just an excuse to go to the beach, or camping, or just stay home and relax.

But sometimes things don’t always go to plan! Maybe it’s a hundred degrees the entire week, or maybe it won’t stop raining. Maybe the adventure follows our heroes to the beach, and now instead of relaxing they’re right back on the job. Maybe they just picked a vacation that involves several million mosquitoes.

Write a story about summer vacation.

BONUS GOAL: “What are we going to do today?”

If your submission features this line, it will earn an extra point to be tallied in voting!

Challenge ends Monday, June 30 at 9:00PM EST.

Started to pay up to come back to Ohio today. Can't find my purse. Mom, Dad, have you seen my purse. I know it's here of course because my SUV's keys are in it and you can't move that vehicle if the key fob is more than 10 feet away. Dad: did you leave it in the car?
Me: no I'm not that stupid.
Mom: you went down your aunt's to get that glass.
Me: OMG it's in the car.

It was. At dinner I stopped at the Chinese place in Athens for take out and the kid working the counter comes running out after me. You forgot your credit card. Well ain't I a dumbass?

Made it here fine. They have FINALLY opened the damn rest stops on I-70 (they closed almost every one of them from PA to MO that I'm aware of). it's a beautiful new building. Didn't bother to put in a new road/parking lot

Rocket is fine. The mouse traps caught the giant mouse in the kitchen (nothing like coming home to the smell of decomp but it was that or letting that mouse destroy my place for 6 weeks)

Found multiple calls from doctors (including one I have no idea who they are) WHY they didn't fucking call my cell phone is anyone's guess. Apparently they schedule a CT scan for me but no one bothered to let me know (They have my cell phone AND my email so they called the house and sent a fucking paper letter) Last I had heard my insurance had said no... now I need to call all of them. Because if that IS a yes maybe I can go down there and have it sent to Chillicothe without having to ask the insurance for permission again. we'll see and get it done now instead of in sept when I'm back again.

I need to look around this apartment to see where I might have left a package of stuff I meant to take to PA. Hope it's here or I have no idea where it is.

What I Just Finished Reading:

Anima rising - this was weird

What I am Currently Reading:

Dark Entry - a short suspense/horror novel I got last year, so far not bad.

Verses for the Dead - a pendergast novel from Preston & Childe. I had forgotten how much I liked this FBI series

Chasing Evil - speaking of the FBI, this is written by an FBI agent (ex) and his professional relationship with psychic John Edward

What I Plan to Read Next: a mystery arc I have and a deep space nine novel

Current Mood: hot
Current Music: beat bobby flay

ANYA: Oh, crap. (slaps down her cards) Look at this! Now I'm burdened with a husband and several tiny pink children, more cash than I can reasonably manage...
XANDER: That means you're winning.
ANYA: Really?
XANDER: Yes. Cash equals good.
ANYA: Ooh! (claps her hands in excitement) I'm so pleased. (Scoops up the plastic markers that represent children) Can I trade in the children for more cash?
