2023 Three Sentence Ficathon - Post #1

[3sfmod]

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.

[demigodscum]

He starts here: he kills one last person; he finishes the war; he leaves the Jedi Order; he returns home; he confronts his fear, himself.

He starts with an offering, laid at the feet of the village elders — potable water (for the living), tears (for the dead he never buried), his lightsaber (his life).

It isn't where he ends because there is no end, no final destination for him to land at, but it's where he starts and it's enough to make the Force swell inside him with the surety that this is balance.

oooohhhhh

[demigodscum]

:D

[vialethe]

Awww, Anakin. IF ONLY.

[demigodscum]

Yeah, Anakin, if only... *pets him*

[edenfalling]

Oh, if only...!

The gift of time is something Anakin never got when he needed it, and without that time, no chance to reflect on his choices and see them in a clearer light.

[demigodscum]

Yessss, that's so right!

[wintersday]

Oh, now this is a good look at where atonement could begin, especially in the recognition that there’s no ending.

[demigodscum]

I'm glad you think so! Accountability is a process, not an arrival point *nods*.

[petra]

I approve of this very much indeed.

[demigodscum]

Yay! <3

[ceruleantactician]

Oh, this is lovely. I love the acknowledgement that there is no way to completely atone for what he's done, but that taking responsibility for his past actions and trying to do the right thing is still crucial.

[demigodscum]

Thank you! The best thing to do is always to start somewhere.

[be_themoon]

well, FUCK

oh, anakin

[demigodscum]

Mmmmhm *pets him*.

[sincereously]

Gorgeous - you get a real sense of grief and guilt, but also a quiet sense of hope and healing.

[demigodscum]

I was really aiming for that last bit, so I'm glad it reads that way to you. Thank youu :D
