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.

Whoop, it's time for that sequel then!
And yet, Aslan waited for them. For the first time, bitter disappointment warred with utter joy to reunite with the lion and she was afraid it must have showed--his stately gaze had always been kind, but this time she was afraid she also saw pity there.
While she stood, nearly trembling, Reepicheep was all too eager to bid them farewell, and then Eustace was quite happy himself at the thought of going home, but Lucy nearly swayed when Aslan told them that they'd grown too old for Narnia, and if they left, it would be the last time they would return.
But then Lucy focused on one very specific word. "If?" she repeated, eyes wide.
The great Lion chuckled at that and agreed--if they were not so eager to leave Narnia just yet, he didn't see the reason to hurry them home. While Eustace did say that he was definitely ready to go home, to which he would be sent in a moment, Caspian was busy squeezing Edmund for joy when he said he would stay and Lucy tossed her arms as far as she could around Aslan's neck and nearly cried.
Before they returned to the ship, Lucy did have one last question for Aslan. "Why did the sea people claim that there's nothing but water east of here when we just saw Reepicheep head into the Utter East?"
"Because there is nothing past here but water," he answered and when she glanced past him, she saw nothing but water all the way to the horizon. When she looked back from the water, he was gone as well.
"What do you suppose that meant?" the sea girl asked.
Lucy frowns before she answered. "I think it means that you can't just enter the kingdom of Aslan's Father so easily. I think you have to get there only when you are meant to, and if you try beforehand, you just keep swimming on forever. Or maybe until you hit the far coast of Narnia's landmass."
Her companion hummed thoughtfully and laid her head onto Lucy's chest. "And so your journey is done, but you have returned to me anyway. What shall you do now? You are returning to your Narnia, aren't you?
"Oh, ah, I rather wanted to ask you about that," she began, sitting up, making the sea maiden lift her head again so they could look in each other's eyes. "I do plan to go back with the others to Narnia, but what do you say about, maybe... joining me?"
The girl paused and sat up, her eyes staring at the water around them. At last, she spoke. "My people traveled far, but never upon land before."
"You could be the first!"
She turned her gaze from the sea to Lucy and, slowly, smiled. "I would like that."
