2023 Three Sentence Ficathon - Post #1
Welcome 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.

After all, all the court and all the people know that if Lady Kingsford is countermanded at any turn in her path, the Emperor will gladly deal with the fools himself.
She is arrayed in jewel colours, nothing like the red robes she earned with her mastery. That same mastery by which she is never referred, the whole court having taken their cue from the imperial prince even before his ascension to the throne of Carthak.
There are jewels in her hair and her wrists and and on her neck, sets of distinct bangles and chains and heavy coronets to hold a Tusaini noblewoman's veil. They hold a queen's collection of rubies and diamonds and emeralds and more, some pieces of which were even gifts from Her Highness the Emperor's mother.
Opals, too, even the most prized black opals, meant for holding a mage's Gift, to store for later use or to link for another to draw on. But among her other blinding jewels, they do nearly blend in, hardly noticeable when hidden by tumbling hair or long sleeves.
Though her fashions are ever something to watch, it's her hands, sometimes gloved and sometimes be-ring'd, as she sweeps into the palace halls with dishes for His Majesty. They're said to be a poisoner's, after all.

"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?"
