primsong: (prim's drabble write)
With thanks - or blame? - to both [personal profile] thisbluespirit and [personal profile] john_amend_all - I picked up that 5 fandoms meme today, except I don't seem able to think in 50-word bits just now, so after much pruning I've wrangled each one into a drabble-size instead. Brevity isn't always my strength.

1: Pick five fandoms. List them in alphabetical order. Okie-dokie...

1. All Creatures Great and Small
2. Doctor Who
3. Lord of the Rings
4. The Scarlet Pimpernel
5. Watership Down

2: Visit this site (http://plagiarist.com/poetry/random) to find your first RANDOM POEM OF POWER. Write down the 5th line (yes, even if it's an E.E. Cummings poem and you wind up with an apostrophe). Repeat five times and - you guessed it - list 'em in alphabetical order! (No cheating, mind! This is a challenge and it's always been about creativity.)

3: I think you can see where this is going. Write a very quick 50-word half-drabble
(Pfft! I need more words than that!) for each fandom (try to do it all in one sitting - make your brain explode!), using the line from the poem as a prompt. You don't have to include it in the half-drabble - it's just inspiration.

4: Bravo! Have a cookie.


Well, here's the results! )

It was just too tempting to see what [livejournal.com profile] stunt_muppet would come up with for a drabble, and I've allowed my own drabbling to be a bit rusty, so now I have to put this here.

The first TEN people to comment in this post get to request that I write a drabble of any pairing/character with a prompt. In return, they have to post this in their journal, regardless of their ability level. (And as she suggested, if you absolutely can't write, I don't see why you wouldn't be able to offer drawings or icons or something instead.) I only write G-rated.

Fandoms I think I can manage at the moment: Doctor Who (no audios yet), LOTR, Star Trek TOS, Gilligan's Island, The Scarlet Pimpernel, All Creatures Great and Small, Get Smart and maybe M*A*S*H.

1.[livejournal.com profile] curuchamion, Three & Liz - Distillate of Starshine
2.[livejournal.com profile] siradaono, Beren & Luthien - This Shining Ember Burns my Hand
3.[livejournal.com profile] lost_spook, Five & Tegan - This is your Captain Speaking, plus bonus drabble "I Think I Used to Work for Those"
4.[livejournal.com profile] john_elliott, Susan & Barbara - My Sun was Always Setting
5.[livejournal.com profile] fantom_fan, Ten & Polly - It Will Come for your Children
6.[livejournal.com profile] dbskyler and [livejournal.com profile] lost_spook, Liz & Ten in the same situation as the previous Polly one, further down the comments - Bewaaare
