Kith and kin: friends, relatives, neighbors, and found family
Copy/paste versions of the prompts above:
"Kith and kin" refers to one's friends and family, with "kin" meaning family and "kith" referring to familiar people or acquaintances. We'll accept any and all non-romantic bonds for this and the Kith-tober prompts in the pinned posts for October!
Share this and enjoy the platonic vibes!
"Doomed yaoi" this "doomed yuri" that what about doomed found family. What about finding comfort in these new people after going through so much on your own—a community, a solace, a home to come back to. Caring for them with all you've got, only to realize that it wasn't going to work, ever, no matter what you tried. Only to have it ripped apart, no matter how much you tried to hold them close. Found family that becomes lost family. Found family that takes your heart with it when they go.
Aging Gracefully
Can we stop acting like two people deeply loving each other has to mean they have something romantic or sexual going on? Can we stop talking as if platonic love just can't be that deep? Because that's not true. Platonic love can be just as deep, and sometimes even deeper, than romantic love. What I'm saying is, we need to stop putting romance on this pedestal and act like every other form of love is less important.
Art gift for @artsymeeshee and anyone else who's looking for a little dose of platonic love on this very romance-saturated day! 💛
I absolutely love Arty's fanart, so I decided to contribute to their adorable protective/loving Ford and Stan and OH MY GOODNESS I can see why they draw these, it filled my heart with ALL the warm fuzzy feelings!!
how do you survive knowing you could forgive your best friend anything

soulmate universe but its not romantic or platonic or familial. you find your person or people but only YOU GUYS get to decide what your relationship means, no one else, not even a cosmic force.
Gregg & Mae platonic couch sleepytime. Angus reading out-of-frame. Friendship keeps the world warm!
living weapon characters who cant conceptualise not being the one who puts themselves in danger for others. living weapon characters who dont understand why someone would ever protect them instead of the other way around. they're flabbergasted the first time someone (e.g. found family) steps in to protect them.
"What are you doing?"
"Protecting you????"
A pause. "What? Why?"

Platonic Love Prompts Poll
Since you lovely folks voted for Kithtober in this previous poll on my main, here we are to start planning. 🤔 This is open to everyone — writers, artists, cosplayers, modelers, etc. and anyone else who wants to create something for it. We do allow 18+ content, just tag/flag it appropriately to help people navigate.
Here's the google form and then when it's all settled, I'll release the full prompt list no later than September to give people time to participate.
