Hi there! Hope the weekend's been treating you well. :3 Welcome to our weekly Lonely Prompts day. If this is your first time at

comment_fic on a Sunday, you can either request previous prompts to be filled or share your recent fills for prompts. (Or do both, of course!) ✎

How to look for prompts:
We have plenty of prompts that might just nibble away at your brain today. You can browse through the comm's calendar archive (here on LJ or here on DW) for themed and Free For All posts, or perhaps check out Sunday posts for Lonely Prompt requests. (Or, you can be like me, and try to save interesting prompts as you see 'em... and then end up with multiple text doc files full of [themes + links + prompts] that you can easily look through and search for keywords.) Multiple fills for one prompt are welcome, by the way! Oh, and you are very likely to find some awesome fills to read as well, and wouldn't it be nice to leave a comment on those lovely little writing distractions? ~_^

Whichever you decide to do, prompt or fill (or both), please remember:
1. You can only request five prompts to be filled.
2. You can request no more than three prompts from a particular fandom.
3. You can, however, fill as many prompts in as many fandoms as you'd like!
4. In the subject line, be sure to say whether it is a request or a fill!
5. You must link back to wherever the prompt is in the community archive (whether filling or requesting), and, if you're filling the prompt, please post the fill as a reply to the original prompt.
6. If you are filling an "any/any" prompt, please let us know what fandom you've written it for (or if it's original!).
8. If there are possible triggers in your story, please warn for them in the subject line!
7. If you've filled any lonely prompts in the past week, this is the place to share them!
9. Finally, please remember to add your prompt fills to our AO3 collection: Bite Sized Bits of Fic from 2026 collection. See further notes on this option here.

How to link:

We are on AO3! If you fill a prompt and post it to AO3, please add it to the Bite Sized Bits of Fic from 2026 collection.

If you are viewing this post on our Dreamwidth site: please know that fills posted here will not show up as comments on our LiveJournal site, but you are still more than welcome to participate. =)

If you have a Dreamwidth account and would feel more comfortable participating there, please feel free to do so… and spread the word! comment_fic

A friendly reminder about our posting schedule: Themed posts for new prompts go up on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Saturdays are a Free for All day for new prompts of any flavor. Sundays are for showing Lonely Prompts some love, whether by requesting for someone to adopt them or by sharing any fills that you've recently completed.

Are there any sub groups that have made like, annotations that show up as subtitles while watching a dubbed version of an anime? Like an entire subtitle track consisting of "Translator's Note"-type asides.

Feels like a way that the format could be used for shows that are really intertextuality-heavy to explain various references being made, but I have no idea if it's actually happened in practice.

Current Mood: curious

Fandom: Heated Rivalry
Characters/Pairings: Shane Hollander/Ilya Rozanov, Hayden Pike, Wyatt Hayes
Rating: Explicit
Length: 7060
Content Notes: Underage, as both Shane and Ilya are seventeen.
Creator Links: toomuchplor on AO3
Themes: Journey and travel, Forced proximity, First time, AU: Fork in the road

Summary: Regina to Edmonton was nine hours by bus if the weather was decent; it took a bit longer if — for example — your bus lost power on Highway 11 just past Dundurn, Saskatchewan.

Team buses, night drives, and one way things might have started differently.

Reccer's Notes:
This is a lovely story about Shane and Ilya as teens, just after the first World Juniors Cup, being forced into proximity on a long nighttime bus ride. The inevitable happens, and it kick-starts their relationship and their friendship at a much earlier stage, allowing them to rewrite the MLH's narrative. Told from Shane's pov, with wonderful characterisation and details.

Hey, y'all! Welcome to the twentieth Free for All of the year! :D There are no themes to follow for prompts or fills. Btw, if you perhaps missed a prompt theme that you liked, or you've had any ideas that didn't really work with Tuesday's or Thursday's posts, then today's your chance to prompt 'em. Be free, and have fun! ✎

Just a few rules:
1. No more than five prompts in a row.
2. No more than three prompts in the same fandom.
3. Use the character's full name and the fandom's full name for ease in adding to the Lonely Prompts spreadsheet.
4. No spoilers in prompts for a month after airing, or use the spoiler cut option found here. Unfortunately, DW doesn’t have a cut tag, so use your best judgment when it comes to spoilers.
5. If your fill contains spoilers, warn and leave plenty of space, or use the spoiler cut.
6. If your story has possible triggers, please warn for them in the subject line!

Prompts should be formatted as follows: [Use the character's full names and fandom's full name]
Fandom, Character +/ Character, Prompt

Are today's prompts not catching your eye? No worries, because we have plenty of older prompts that just might do the trick! You can browse through the comm's calendar archive (here on LJ or here on DW) for themed and Free For All posts, or perhaps check out Sunday posts for Lonely Prompt requests. (Or, you can be like me, and try to save interesting prompts as you see 'em... and then end up with multiple text doc files full of [themes + links + prompts] that you can easily look through and search for keywords.) Multiple fills for one prompt are welcome, by the way! Oh, and you are very likely to find some awesome fills to read as well, and wouldn't it be nice to leave a comment on those lovely little writing distractions? ~_^

We are on AO3! If you fill a prompt and post it to AO3, please add it to the Bite Sized Bits of Fic from 2026 collection.

A wild Celestia appears above the clouds. That's a suspiciously large number of clouds. The weather ponies are up to something.

I know we are halfway through the month, but is anyone else doing anything for ani-MAY or MAY-nga this year? Are they even still things?

I've been challenging myself to watch or rewatch through one disc a day of my anime DVD collection and to reread one volume a day of my physical manga collection.

The anime part is going well. It's given me an excuse to make time to watch some things I haven't in awhile and helping me decide what maybe could leave my collection.

I am very behind on the manga reading, but it has been fun. I actually set out a bunch of volumes to do this with last year and never got it, so it's kinda like a weird Advent calendar, full of nostalgia. There doesn't seem to be any sort of rhyme or reason to why I picked the volumes off the shelf that I did. It's an adventure. (And yes, that means there was a very large stack of manga on my nightstand for a year that I grew blind to. The poor things.)

Another artwork that I forgot to post 14 years ago. I think it was originally called "My art with the mouse". At least that's the filename I used when I first saved it 14 years ago. Since I hadn't pasted the original link, I went looking for it, found it and updated with the more descriptive filename "Fog".

🔀 Hello, everyone! I’m

simplyn2deep, and I’m back to host another week! 🔀

Today’s theme is ❓ What If... ❓

A “What If...?” fic is a type of AU built around one single canon change — one moment shifting like a stone dropped into water, the ripples changing everything afterward. 🌊⏳

What if the Hale fire never happened?
What if Kelly, Jill, and Sabrina found out Charles Townsend’s identity?
What if someone lived?
What if someone never came home?
What if one tiny moment changed the entire story?

Think of the Doctor Who episode “Turn Left” — one altered event creating a completely different timeline. Your challenge is to explore how canon changes when one thing goes differently. Sometimes the change is massive. Sometimes it’s heartbreakingly small. 🕰️🫶

📌 Just a few rules:
✏️ No more than five prompts in a row.
🎭 No more than three prompts in the same fandom.
📝 Use the character's full name and fandom's full name for ease in adding to the Lonely Prompts spreadsheet.
⚠️ No spoilers in prompts for a month after airing, or use the spoiler cut option.
📚 If your fill contains spoilers, warn and leave plenty of space, or use the spoiler cut option.

Prompts should be formatted as follows:
[Use the character's full names and fandom's full name]
📖 Fandom, Character +/ Character, Prompt

✨ Some examples to get the ball rolling… ✨
🐺 Teen Wolf, Stiles Stilinski/Derek Hale, What if the Hale fire never happened, and Stiles grows up knowing the Hales as Beacon Hills royalty?
🌊 Hawaii Five-0, Steve McGarrett/Danny Williams, What if Danny never transferred to Hawaii and Steve had to build Five-0 without him?
🚓 9-1-1, Evan Buckley/Eddie Diaz, What if Eddie had joined the 118 years before Buck did?

We are now using AO3 to bookmark filled prompts 📚✨. If you fill a prompt and post it to AO3 please add it to the Bite Sized Bits of Fic from 2026 collection. See further notes on this new option here.

Not feeling any of today’s 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.

As a friendly reminder about our schedule ⏰, Lonely Prompts and sharing completed fills are encouraged on Sundays 🌿, while new themes and prompts are posted on Tuesdays and Thursdays 📅. Saturdays are a Free for All day 🎉. We'll share our posts on DW and LJ for everyone's convenience. Keep an eye out for notifications! 👀

🎬✨ Hello, everyone! I’m

simplyn2deep, and I’m back to host another week! ✨🎬

Today’s theme is 🚫💬 No Dialogue 💬🚫

The fic can be about anything, but it cannot contain any dialogue at all.
No spoken words. No quotation marks. No conversations. Just actions, expressions, atmosphere, tension, longing, heartbreak, comfort, and everything left unsaid. 👀🫶🌧️

📌 Just a few rules:
✏️ No more than five prompts in a row.
🎭 No more than three prompts in the same fandom.
📝 Use the character's full name and fandom's full name for ease in adding to the Lonely Prompts spreadsheet.
⚠️ No spoilers in prompts for a month after airing, or use the spoiler cut option.
📚 If your fill contains spoilers, warn and leave plenty of space, or use the spoiler cut option.

Prompts should be formatted as follows:
[Use the character's full names and fandom's full name]

📖 Fandom, Character +/ Character, Prompt

✨ Some examples to get the ball rolling… ✨

🐺 Teen Wolf, Stiles Stilinski/Derek Hale, After a brutal argument, they end up trapped together on an eight-hour road trip where neither of them says a single word.
🌊 Hawaii Five-0, Steve McGarrett/Danny Williams, Danny keeps vigil overnight in a hospital waiting room while Steve is in surgery, and exhaustion strips everything down to the things he cannot say out loud.
🕯️ any, any/any, Two former best friends unexpectedly reunite at a funeral after years apart, communicating only through glances, gestures, and old habits they never quite lost.

We are now using AO3 to bookmark filled prompts 📚✨. If you fill a prompt and post it to AO3 please add it to the Bite Sized Bits of Fic from 2026 collection. See further notes on this new option here.
