Prompt suggestions are now officially closed, and prompt voting has begun! Voting will be open until September 10th, at 5pm ET. You may vote for up to seven prompts by selecting your choices on this poll. You can see how long until the poll closes here. If you submitted suggestions, you are still welcome to vote, and you may vote for your own suggestion(s).
Below are the prompts that have been suggested. Some suggestions were excluded or generalized if they didn’t fit the theme or were extremely specific. All other suggestions were included, but a few have also been combined if they were similar, and sub-prompts that fit within a more general theme are included as examples (with a TVTropes link where applicable) under that larger trope. That being said, due to the nature of tropes there may still be some overlap, so when our prompts are chosen we will phrase the winning prompt as inclusively as possible to maximize our range of creations.
There is a short description of the most straightforward interpretation of each prompt below the cut, but remember that you are welcome to interpret a prompt however you like for the event (so if the definition doesn’t spark you but the word or the TVTropes page does, run with it!).
