threesentenceficathonWelcome 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.

Date: 2023-01-14 01:43 am (UTC)"They may not be the brightest, or the most sensibly designed," Bran continued, wiping his muddy, oily hands on his equally muddy trousers, "but sheep want to have enough food and water, to be around other sheep, to make little baby sheep at the right time of year, to not get too hot or cold, and to not get eaten by wolves or minks or terrifying sheepdogs -- simple and sensible, and easy enough for a farmer to arrange -- and they don't bother with things like taxes or religion or the costs and benefits of the devolution of parliamentary authority."
"I know where you're going with this," Will said preemptively, "and no, I won't replace the British government with sheep."
"Shame."

Date: 2023-01-15 04:17 am (UTC)Flight (Underworld; Lucian/Sonja)
Date: 2023-01-14 07:43 am (UTC)Sonja's brows rose as she watched the neighbour's flock flee, their guard dog getting to his feet slowly - looking rather puzzled - and trotting off after them.
She glanced around to find Lucian slouching up to rest against the fence, frowning and looking after the fleeing sheep, and Sonja laughed, moving to join him. She wound her arms around him and nuzzled his shoulder, feeling a curl of pleasure from the throb of his heart beating under her forearm.

Date: 2023-01-14 07:30 pm (UTC)Castlevania (Netflix), Trevor/Alucard, Something to Do
Date: 2023-01-21 06:03 pm (UTC)Alucard regarded him with a look that could best be described as "mild amusement." "You look like a man who needs something to do, and helping to take care of the sheep is something to do."
Trevor scratched the back of his neck and looked away. "I'm not very good at taking care of things."
Alucard patted his shoulder. "Then perhaps it's time that you learn."

Date: 2023-01-26 08:15 am (UTC)For example, the System had no idea why on earth UV002 was calling his destined murderer a "precious sheep." This seemed inconsistent with the fear UV002 held of the future Demon Emperor, but humans were riddled with inconsistencies, the System supposed.
Re: SVSSS, The System
Date: 2023-01-27 06:43 pm (UTC)I also love the System going the technological equivalent of, shrug, that's weird. ;D Feels like a mirror of what humans do with technology all the time!
