threesentenceficathonWelcome to the 2023 Three Sentence Ficathon!
As of 16 Jan 2023 this post is NOW CLOSED TO NEW PROMPTS! PLEASE POST YOUR NEW PROMPTS HERE, IN POST 2! Do continue to fill prompts here but please put all new prompts in Post 2.
This post will remain open for new prompts until we hit 4000 comments, at which point we'll open a new one to avoid captcha as long as possible. New fills and comments on fills will always be welcome.
How to Prompt
Prompts should be one prompt per comment, formatted in this way: fandom, character(s), prompt word/sentence
Example: Star Wars, Obi-Wan Kenobi, I don't like sand
Prompts may also be open ended, unspecific, or anthropomorphic, such as:
any, any, I don't like sand
or
Earth geography, sand, I don't like humans very much, either
Prompts for relationships are welcome; a / is used for romantic/sexual relationships and an & for platonic. A prompt that uses both means the relationship can be written as either romantic or platonic, such as:
Star Wars, Anakin/&Obi-Wan, I don't like sand
Prompts may be repeated if they are unfilled; there is no obligation to read through every prompt to make sure yours isn't a repeat. This year's 3SF will stay open for new prompts through Sunday, February 12th.
How to Fill
Respond to your chosen prompt with a short fic of three sentences containing the fandom & characters requested!
Prompts can be filled more than once, as many times as someone has a new idea for them.
Notes & Rules
No, fills do not need to be exactly three sentences! It's more of a guideline. Please abuse grammar and punctuation as much as desired.
3SF is a Choose Not to Warn space. Spoiler and content warnings are not required, though writers are free to add them if they please. If you see something you don't like, just scroll until you do!
A Dreamwidth account is not needed to participate. Anonymous prompts/fills are welcome, or you can use Open ID.
Cross-posting is encouraged; there is a 3SF Collection on AO3 if you'd like to post fills there as well.
Note that the comm is searchable! Tick the 'include comments' button when searching to easily find prompts for your chosen fandom/characters.
And most importantly, have fun! If you have questions, check the Sticky Info post and if they're not answered there, head to the Contact the Mods post.

Die Hard; Hans Gruber
Date: 2023-01-20 04:58 am (UTC)no subject
Date: 2023-01-20 05:04 am (UTC)Rikku and Yuna, The Wrong Word in the Right Ear
Date: 2023-01-20 05:08 am (UTC)"And?" Yuna said, prompting for the rest of the story.
"And they ran me out, but the fact the primarch heard me and understood me started the riot that brought the corruption to light and is why you're now supervising the rebuilding of the temple!" Rikku said, hoping that by smiling and sounding upbeat she could convince Yuna that this was something more than just an epic delay on the pilgrimage.
Re: Faith (Naruto; Sasuke/Naruto)
Date: 2023-01-20 05:26 am (UTC)Worth It (Underworld; Lucian/Sonja)
Date: 2023-01-20 05:29 am (UTC)One more night he watched Sonja, made his way to her in their hidden meeting place, and swallowed down those bitter moments and the fierce wildness inside.
One more night . . . because so long as the only surety of fighting was losing Sonja, one way or another, he hadn't the will to try.
Re: We Have Differences, Indeed
Date: 2023-01-20 05:46 am (UTC)Re: Fill
Date: 2023-01-20 05:46 am (UTC)Re: (Smut) The Sentence Will Continue Unless You Safeword
Date: 2023-01-20 05:47 am (UTC)Korra, Korra and Asami, Light My Fire
Date: 2023-01-20 05:49 am (UTC)Re: Harry Potter, Draco&Hermione, post-book 7
Date: 2023-01-20 06:41 am (UTC)Re: Harry Potter, Hermione/Harry/Draco, abuse of commas and parenthesis
Date: 2023-01-20 06:48 am (UTC)Women (Naruto; Sasuke/Sakura (past/implied/unrequited), Kiba/Sakura (potential))
Date: 2023-01-20 06:52 am (UTC)A woman who was powerful in her own right; a woman who wrote her own legend; hell, Sakura thought back to what she'd tried, thoughtlessly, to be, when they were younger, and it was still never enough of herself quashed and hidden and subjugated to his goals.
". . .what?" Kiba gave her a boggled look, one eye half squinted, and Akamaru whuffed, cocking his head the opposite direction. ". . .does he want a man, then? What kind of woman doesn't-" he broke off as Sakura burst into peals of laughter, and his puzzled expression only made her laugh harder.
"Oh, Kiba," Sakura said as she began to control herself, giggling, and threw her arms around him; she remembered, of course, now, his mother - who ruled their clan - his sister, his only family, and Kiba the scruffy puppy and only boy, "I love you." she told him fondly, and ruffled his messy hair.
Re: Flight to You
Date: 2023-01-20 07:00 am (UTC)Night Travel (Naruto; Madara/Tobirama)
Date: 2023-01-20 07:13 am (UTC)Tobirama nuzzled his neck, holding him closer, and Madara leaned into him with a soft sigh. "The moon and the stars," Tobirama pointed out, his voice low, and Madara tilted his head to invite more kisses, "more than enough . . . for a man not accustomed to bringing the blazing light of his own sun where e'er he goes." he teased gently, and Madara strangled his laugh to something quiet enough not to draw attention.
Gentle Is Different Than Good
Date: 2023-01-20 07:18 am (UTC)The first one to mistake her as still Gentle in this world is struck down so swiftly and completely that they do not notice the wound until their head rolls on the ground at their feet.
Our Flag Means Death, Ed/Stede, pinned
Date: 2023-01-20 07:54 am (UTC)Closer inspection revealed what Stede had meant about craftsmanship: it was a gold brooch instead of a living insect, its enameled wings mounted on the tiniest springs Ed had ever seen so that every small vibration sent them fluttering like the real thing, and Ed dreamed for a brief moment of wearing something so fine before he took another look at Stede's eager expression and magnanimously said, "It'll look good on you."
"They would look lovely on you, too," Stede said, grinning as he used his free hand to point at a jewelry box containing at least a dozen more, and when Ed and Stede returned to the Revenge, they were both festooned with golden butterflies.
Re: Our Flag Means Death, Ed/Stede, Stede's secret tattoo isn't so secret anymore
Date: 2023-01-20 07:55 am (UTC)The idea that Ed had already seen it and thought it was a birthmark is *chef's kiss* and I love that Izzy walked right into the nonsense thinking he was winning!
Re: Fill
Date: 2023-01-20 07:56 am (UTC)Silmarillion, Fingolfin
Date: 2023-01-20 08:46 am (UTC)The sword no longer glinted among the rocks, for it was now eaten with rust from the onslaught of the driving snow and whipping wind, but Fingolfin would have known the place of his brother’s death even if there were no sign to mark it and none who now remembered it; his feet had taken the path too many times to forget, and ever they bade him to return, to look across the wide spread of Ard-Galen to the slag peaks of Thangorodrim that had mocked his brother from the moment he had set foot in these lands.
But Fëanor had never made it there, driven to folly by his pride and wrath, and as Fingolfin stood by the hilt of his brother’s sword and gazed at the ashen peaks in the distance, he wondered if the folly of Fëanor would be the folly of all who had followed him into these lands.
Re: Our Flag Means Death, Ed/Stede, pinned
Date: 2023-01-20 10:47 am (UTC)Bound and Barred (Hellboy; Nuada/Nuala)
Date: 2023-01-20 11:22 am (UTC)Nuada goes to war, again and again, and lives up to the murmurs of admiration and fear all their kind - and more - weave into legends; he returns colder and fiercer every time, and Nuala may be the only one to remember the softness of his heart . . . the only one who can feel that it still beats and bleeds thus.
Nuala remains in the court, remains by their father as he calls for and leans on her, she presides over the council and shores up their king; Nuada leads the armies, guards their borders, and while the court shy from him, their people love him for his fierce protection and the way he meets them on open, even ground - and always, as it stretches to years and decades and more that they do not so much as see each other, there is their link that cannot be broken, a pale shadow of the way they long to join themselves and all that they may have of one another.
Reverse Tank (Kingyou-hime; Keisuke/Kingyou-kun)
Date: 2023-01-20 11:36 am (UTC)Kin-chan is curled up by the one window in his - their, now, Keisuke thinks, a little dizzily - tiny apartment, wrapped in the blanket from the bed, fingers pressed to the glass as rain pelts off it with a soft patter. "It's like being in a tank, but backwards!" Kin-chan says with delight, turning to look at him, eyes sparkling, and Keisuke blinks, slowly wrapping his head around that as Kin-chan watches him, wide eyes patient.
". . .I suppose so," Keisuke says eventually, a little amused; he has never considered his apartment to be like a fish tank - though . . . he eyes Kin-chan's empty tank across the room; it is probably more luxurious than the apartment Kin-chan now shares with him outside the tank most times, "does it sound, uh," Keisuke stumbles out of bed and wanders over to his tiny, adorable boyfriend, kissing the top of Kin-chan's head and winding his arms around Kin-chan as he makes a chirruping noise and snuggles into the embrace, "something like being in the tank?"
The Orville, Isaac
Date: 2023-01-20 11:45 am (UTC)Gift (Dresden Files; Harry Dresden/John Marcone, Nathan Hendricks) x2
Date: 2023-01-20 12:15 pm (UTC)"Black fire opal, yes," John said patiently; it had been difficult tracking down a set of seven that were all real, untreated, and of similar colour-play and shape, but it had also been rather enjoyable, in a way, "you agreed I could give you a present for your birthday, with quite a few stipulations I might add," he raised his eyebrows and smothered his amusement as Harry closed his mouth, but sulked, silently and pointedly, "are they not a good focus stone for you?"
"I- Yes, hell's bells," Harry stroked the air over the linked opals, and John hid a smile; he was going to take them, he just needed to be talked around - delicately, "they're gorgeous, John, and opals are an incredible focus, and yes, great for me because of my birthday, and I can feel the way they're in tune even without trying to use them yet, but. . ."
~
"Do you think he has any idea how expensive those were?" Nathan asked dryly, and John laughed, rubbing his brow.
"No," John admitted, glancing back at Harry's building as Nathan pulled the car away from the curb, "or he would have been even louder about not accepting them."
"Congratulations," Nathan said evenly, "on succeeding in getting your paramour to accept an expensive gift;" he paused as John laughed again, "your problems never have been like those of most men in your position, have they, Johnny?"
