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.

any, any, the moon and the stars

Naruto, Izuna/Tobirama, the moon and the stars

[livewareissue]

Tobirama looks at his rival, limned in the light of the moon, and steps back into the shadows.

Some people, like his brother and Madara-sama, burn brightly with the conviction of their passions; while others, like Izuna, are complementary figures - cooler, less likely to burn, a gentler light but still one that dominates the sky.

Tobirama knows himself though, and he does not shine as they shine, he does not attract attention as they do.

For who would look at a star when they could have the moon?

For All Mankind, Molly Cobb

[adriennefae]

Molly’s spent so long looking up at the stars - as a child, before going up there was ever a serious possibility, still always wanting to fly higher; that first time around, when for a moment she’d let herself hope there might be a chance; afterwards, when she cursed the damn sky and the damn government and NASA and men; after she'd been chosen - after Patty - when she’d at last looked upwards again and known this whole thing had to be worth it, and now -
Now, she’s seen this in reverse, Earth as tiny from up there as the moon looks from down here.
The stars shine around it in the distance. The moon, the stars, they're all really real, somewhere out there, every one of them. She’s touched one, walked on its surface with her own two feet -
Molly grins as she lets her head fall back. Someday, she’ll visit them all.

I don't know the fandom, but regardless of that, this is beautiful :)

Night Travel (Naruto; Madara/Tobirama)

[kalira]

"Not much to light your way, to guide you to me . . . or safely away." Madara murmured as he looked out over the compound walls in the stark black of the night, fingertips trailing over the fine bones of Tobirama's big hands where they rested on his ribs.

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.
