Just a public service announcement that you can claim any prompt you like from now until stories are due on Aug 15th.

Claims don't necessarily require you to write them but it is good form to only claim prompts you plan to follow through with (you can drop a claim if you change your mind).

We have 35 prompts so far!

Puck Luck Fest 2024 — a hrpf magical realism prompt meme!

let your characters live in a world where wishes made on the stanley cup come true! stick 'em in a time loop! make the hockey gods real, and have them curse some guys for real! we are using the hrpf fandom's interpretation of magical realism for this fest, where most things about characters' lives are the same. except ... there's a truth curse, or soulbonds, or a wishbaby, or someone transforms into an animal, etc. fic with a more urban fantasy flavor (everything's the same except that werewolves or vampires or witches, etc. are real) is also totally welcome in this fest. basically — any prompt or fic where the premise is 'hockey + some brand of magic' is welcome here! you can get as high concept as you want and develop lore and rules for magic to tell your story. or you can also keep things lowkey, and let your characters be completely shocked to find out they live in a world where their captain gets de-aged after a bad game.

Welcome back to Nowhere, y'all

[kosmo-mckogane]

rereading my own writing is just a constant fluctuation between "damn, girl, you wrote this? (affectionate)" and "damn, girl, you wrote this? (derogatory)"

[aurevoirblog-deactivated2023082]

I am also “damn, girl, you wrote this? (forgetful)”

[copperbadge]

Damn girl, you wrote this?

Damn girl, you wrote this?

Damn girl, you wrote this?

[victorhedman]

It might be a good time to brush up on the Nowhere series, specifically Three is a Crowd (and six is a love story) and maybe All That You Need (will surely come) if you have some spare time.

For...reasons. 🤗

[lecavayay]

FOR REASONS

[lecavayay]

*tap tap* is this thing on?
