Prompting Part XXXV

[sherlockbbc_fic]

THE MEME NEEDS ARCHIVISTS!

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


• Don’t reprompt until TWO parts after the last posting of the prompt.


• 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.

CONTACTING MODS

Sherlock’s heart was thrumming rapidly in his throat as he and John stood staring at each other.

“I didn’t want you to... not, want to be with me because of a bad thing that happen half a lifetime ago.”

“That wouldn’t have happened. I would have just made sure we went slower. I would have made sure that you were doing better that just enduring us making love.” Sherlock saw how John looked pained at even the very idea.

“But, I enjoy it! I do! Eventually. It’s just the initial moments, those moments when I’m adjusting and coming to the… the realisation it’s YOU I’m with and not—” Sherlock tried.

“This was so poorly executed Sherlock, I’m sort of… speechless, actually. You obviously didn’t trust me enough to do what was best.” John sighed in response.

“I trust you with my life! But, I know what’s best for me!” Sherlock growled in defence. But, then he saw the anger drain out of the doctor and his breath hitched.

“But you evidently don’t know what’s best for US. No, person on this earth with a heart want’s to think of their partner hurt—No! Let me finish—no partner wants to think of their partner hurting or suffering. I now have to rethink every moment that we’ve laid in that bed together, trying to work out if I remember you sounding like you actually even liked any of it. And maybe you did, maybe you’re telling the truth now. But, all you’ve left me with is doubts now. Sherlock, just doubts and misdirection’s. I’ve done that once before, remember? And I honestly don’t know if I could do it again.” John ran a tired hand down his face

“John please!” Sherlock pleaded as the sad doctor made his way up the stairs with what suspiciously looked like a limp in tow. “I didn’t—” but, Sherlock’s calls were only met by an oppressive silence.
