2019 Mass Effect Relationships Week - Fanfic Prompts
As part of the Mass Effect Relationships Week, or #MERweek, being held by @cactuarkitty to celebrate all relationships within the original Mass Effect trilogy and Andromeda (all kinds of relationships - romantic, platonic, friendships, bromances, familial, enemies, frenemies, working relationships etc.) I was asked once again to put together a fun set of optional fic prompts for writers to have some fun with.
The week runs from July 1st to July 7th and is for both the original Mass Effect trilogy AND Andromeda. Remember, these prompts are all optional - so have fun with them! :)
As always please be sensible and sensitive when writing fics - tag for appropriate triggers and follow all of the main MERweek event rules on @cactuarkitty‘s blog.
All relationships have those stories. You know the ones. Those famous stories. The good ones. Like the time Shepard took down the reaper on foot. Or Kaidan got involved in the Vorcha mafia. Or the time Vega got drunk and kissed Steve. What? It happened. It totally happened.
Day 2: A Night on the Town
A lot can happen late at night. Maybe Down a dark alley … or maybe in a bar. Enemies can meet for that final fight. Friends can have hilarious adventures. And lovers can do what they do best!
You can take this prompt where you want to. A genuine plea for help on the battlefield, a moment of kindness in which one person realizes how much they love the other. Go nuts.
What monster doesn’t like getting a present? But who knows what’s inside of that box, and what it might lead to …
Write about a moment when emotions between your characters became a little extreme. Did their relationship become stressed? Did things get hot? Did loves almost break up? Drama, angst, smut, fluff - everything is on the table!
Day 6: Confessions / Secrets
Relationships are all about confessions … or the things we don’t confess. Go on - tell me a little story about your characters deepest darkest secrets.
Let’s have some fun for our final day! Time to drop your characters into an alternate universe story set in the real world. Hey - it’s all optional. If you don’t want to, you don’t have to! ;)
Please make sure to tag your post #MERweek2019 in the first five tags so we can reblog and share it. Have fun! Please check out @cactuarkitty‘s blog as she will be posting the main MER Week post some time on the 3rd June. And @rock-paperback-scissors who has some amazing art prompts! ♡
