Prompting Part XXXVII

This is the new prompting post for the Sherlock Prompting Meme. Prompts from LJ can still be filled there with links here or filled here in the new overflow post.

GUIDELINES

  • Anon posting is not required, but most definitely allowed. If you think you recognise an anon, keep it to yourself and don’t out them. IP tracking is off, and will remain that way.

  • Multiple fills are encouraged, and all kinds of fills are accepted! Fic, art, vids, cosplay, interpretive dance — whatever. Go wild! :D

  • Please do not re-post prompts unless the last time they were prompted was on an older part. Simply put: ONE posting of each prompt per part.

  • RPF (real person fic, i.e. fic involving the actors themselves) is not supported at this meme.

  • Concrit is welcome but kinkshaming, hijacking, and flaming are not tolerated.


THE FILLED PROMPTS POST
When you fill a prompt, please use the appropriate Filled Prompts Post to archive your fill (there are instructions on the actual post).

If the part you wanted isn't up yet, just wait and one of the archivists will get to it, but please, once it is up, make sure you post your fills there according to the guidelines. DO NOT skip out on doing this because it seems like too much effort. If you want your fill to make it to the Delicious archive, that’s the way to do it.

Do not be afraid to ask questions about how it works if you are confused! The mods will be happy to explain.

WARNINGS/OFFENSIVE WORDING IN PROMPTS
Please consider warning for prompts that may trigger people (and also for fills, because some people read in flat view) and phrasing prompts in a manner that strives to be respectful.

Things which you might want to consider warning for include: Rape/Non-Con, Death, Suicidal Thoughts, Self-Harm, Underage Relationships, among others.

That being said, this is a kink meme. As such, there will be prompts that could offend you in a number of different ways. Not every prompt will have a trigger warning, and not every prompt will rub you the right way. If you have an issue with a specific prompt, feel free to bring it up in a discussion that takes place off the meme. However, flaming will not be tolerated regardless of origin.

You are highly encouraged to scroll past any prompt that you dislike.

Remember: be civil, be friendly, but don’t be shy!

THINGS THAT MAKE BROWSING THE MEME EASIER FOR EVERYONE
Please nest your fills. Doing so will make it easier for archivists to save your fills to the Delicious archive. Using subject lines will also help people reading the meme in flatview keep track of what’s happening. Finally, titling your fills (even if it’s something silly) will be helpful to those tracking a lot of prompts or scrolling through the meme.

PROMPT FREEZES
Depending on the rate of activity, there may or may not be a prompt freeze when a part reaches 2000 and 4500 comments. However, there will be one when it reaches 7000. After the 7000 comments freeze, a new part will be posted, and all prompting should happen on the new part.

Soulmates

(Anonymous) 2015-09-06 06:11 am (UTC)(link)
So I read a story about how when soulmates meet they see the wield in color, but in this story one of them was blind. This lead to angst and confusion. So! A soulmate story where John is blind! And when he meets his mate (Sherlock or Moriarty preferably), he is obviously unable to tell. The biggest issue, though, is that he says he already found his mate. In this verse, there are those who can be the mate to someone, but that person is not yours. So Sherlock/Jim see the supposed match and keep quiet about the fact that they are John's mate, unaware that the person who claims to be his mate is lying. John does nit realise that the person he is with is not his soul mate, because he is blind. Reading over this I realise it seems confusing...

Short version! Blind John meets person A, who is his soul mate. John does nit realise, because he is blind. John talks about person B, his mate. Person A is sad but leaves it be. Person B is actually just lying because reasons.

Would prefer Jim or Sherlock to be John's real mate.

I'd definitely love to fill this, though it may take a while - do you want it to be canon compliant where possible? :)

Oh yay! I really do not care; I am not too fussy. They can be younger, Canon, anything. Do what your heart desires! Any idea about the pairings? Thank you so much!
