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.

Narnia is a wild northern land (even more wild and more northern than it is in another universe, where it is ruled by a wise, if not tame, Lion), where tricks and magic and the occasional lie flowed as easily as Bacchus's wine (Bacchus is welcome in this Narnia, as in that other Narnia-that-could-be; perhaps moreso, for trickery and foolery come so easily with drink); much of Narnia revels in a cleverly-played trick, and what is more clever a trick than this?

They cower before the mortal woman, the small Narnians do, the weak ones, before the pale one who fashions herself a queen, bringing ice and snow in her wake - see here, this is the trick, the cowering: her ice is nothing to the ice that blankets Narnia when Odin pisses their Lord off enough, and yet she thinks they are afraid - of her.

Then she comes to the stronger Narnians - too proud, even for a clever trick, to cower to an ice that is nothing, and her confusion is so palpable that even the small, weak ones laugh; and then she comes to their Lord, Loki, the Frost Giant, to whom his own ice is not of concern to say nothing of hers, and she falters; he grins, sharp as his hawk's talons, as his Narnia's stone spire outcroppings, and sings, "You think your magic has root here, when I created the Deep Magic with ice and stone and fire?"

And her ice burns.

I love this! Especially the idea of the smaller Narnians just pretending to be afraid, because that is just being clever, is really good!

thank you! I feel like Loki is first and foremost a trickster, so of course his Narnians are too! and tricksters know how to protect themselves with a little trick, especially if it cumulates in revealing a much bigger trick!
