âRegarding setting, the court held that both works taking place in Alaska high schools was not protectable because Alaska is a public place and setting a teen novel in a high school is a common genre convention.â
As much as Iâd love for Elain to feel jealous and a little more than bothered if Lucien were to flirt with another girl at some ball, I also think it would be just as great if she spotted him at a farmerâs market and got jealous watching him eat food made by someone else.
Imagine her watching from a distance as he closes his eyes, moaning (because ofc he moans) and savoring the treat. Maybe it is something with cream, so he uses his tongue to lick it off before thanking the seller and saying it is the best thing he has had (a lie, because he loves all sweet baked goods).
She goes back and bakes that exact same thing, thinking, mine is better, but he cannot eat it, because she has to offer it to him, and offering it has implications.
As if that isnât the crux of their relationship: one of them never bold enough to break the orbit they keep around each other.

About & Rules
The challenge runs from December 13-24, 2025.
The challenge is open to any and all fandoms, including (but not limited to) RPF, x reader fics, OCs, original writing, etc.
The challenge is also open to all kinds of art: drawings, edits, aesthetics, mood boards, videos, podfics, fiber arts⊠go wild!
Submissions must include at least one of the prompts for that day, but can combine two or even all three.
Prompts for the day always include: a Movie AU, a scenario, and a word prompt. The prompted movie does not need to be used in its entirety - loosely inspired by or even just a selected scene is enough.

Submissions for the day must be posted before midnight YOUR time. We're not overly strict about this rule, but posting within the time frame is greatly appreciated!Â

Hello friends! I, along with my co-mod, timothysboxers, are thrilled to announce that 25 Days of Draco and Harry will be back for 2025, celebrating its 15th year. Again, we thank navi1088 for creating our banner art. His work can be found at AO3 and tumblr under the same name.
For those who may not be familiar with this challenge, we have included the rules at the end of this post, and we <b>strongly</b> encourage you to read these.
And for the loyal fans of 25 Days of Harry and Draco: In 2025, we will be doing both Early-bird and Traditional prompts as usual. Again, we're running on LJ, DW and tumblr â the rules will be the same as last year.
Because it seemed to work out quite well last year, the Early-bird Prompts will once again be available in October, and we will be including the Image Descriptions along with the prompts.
Early bird prompts will be available no later than 12 October 2025, allowing creators around 7 weeks to work on their posts. The signup period will open on 5 October 2025.
We have a Discord server specifically for 25 Days of Draco and Harry participants. Like last year, this will be a place where early bird participants can discuss (in a channel just for them) the prompts and how they might use them. Traditional participants may join the Server at any time, and will also have dedicated channels for their prompts and discussions.
The 2025 rules at a glanceâ
Common Guidelines and Notes
If you are creating individual works, please select "This Work is Part of a Series" to gather your works together. This will make them much easier to find in future!
If you are creating a multi-chaptered work, please use the "This Work has Multiple Chapters" option to ensure your chapters stay together.
An <a href="https://archiveofourown.org/collections/25_Days_of_Draco_and_Harry_2025">AO3 Collection</a> is available, and you are encouraged to post your works to it. Search for "25 Days of Draco and Harry 2025".
If you're not posting to the AO3 collection (but we really hope you are!) be sure to tag @slythindor100 on tumblr so we do not miss your posts!
The Early Bird and Traditional Prompt sets are different. We aim to have five or less prompts that appear in both sets.
More detailed rules and guidelines are further down underneath the cut.
25 Days of Draco and Harry 2025 - Traditional
No changes from prior years. An image prompt is posted starting at midnight US-EST on 1 December, and you create a work based on that prompt and post before the next day's prompt goes up.
Each of your posts can be part of a larger work or they can stand alone.
25 Days of Draco and Harry 2025 - Early Bird
You receive access to all 25 photo prompts at once when Early Bird access opens. This is a similar timeframe as previous years. The idea is to give participants time to prepare and create something before the insanity of December starts.
You will post one work per day for each prompt. This can be a stand-alone story or each day can be a part of a bigger story.
We also encourage individuals or a group to create a podfic of a past 25 Days story, subject to the consent of the author(s). â„
The advantages are this:
1. you can use the picture prompts in any order you chose
2. you can start creating early and have many of your posts ready to go before December 1st.
3. you get the prompts all at once so you can pre-plan your story and how you will use each prompt.
If you have any questions, please email the 25 days mod account at [email protected] or DM one of the mods if you're on the Drarry Discord server, or the 25 Days Challenge server.

The basic rules of 25 Days of Draco and Harry â Traditional Edition:
The challenge is to write a drabble, ficlet, story, create an artwork, a comic, etc. for the image posted each day from 1 December to 25 December. Written works for each prompt should be a minimum of 100 words, but there is no maximum. They can be twenty-five one-shots or each one can be a part of a bigger story. Pictures will be posted at midnight US EST and you have until the next midnight to complete your work.
You may combine this with other communities or tumblr prompts.
Your work does not have to be a story of the picture â you can use any part of the picture, or take inspiration from what that picture says to you.
Traditional Prompts must be used in their posted order. If you fall behind, you can post more than once a day to get caught up. You're also welcome to post as life allows, meaning you don't have to worry about being on time. You can also combine a few days or prompts into one work, but the true challenge is to post every day for 25 days within the 24-hour time frame.
You do not need to sign-up for the Traditional edition, the prompts will be made available beginning 1 December at midnight US EST.
Early-bird Edition:
After signups close you will be given access to the 25 picture prompts no later than Sunday, 12 October.
You may use these prompts in any order you choose â but each prompt may only be used once.
The challenge remains to post a daily work from 1 to 25 December using one of the provided prompts. Each should be posted between US 12 midnight (EST) and 11:59 PM (EST) the next night.
For written works, the minimum word count is 100 words per prompt.
Summer is here, the heat is on, and ...

Damn I just realized that since the Rohirrim didnât read or write (wise but unlearned, writing no books but singing many songs)Â that means Eowyn couldnât read or write and since she marries Nerdboy McGee who loves reading and writing more than anything you can your bottom dollar one of the first thing that happens in their courtship/marriage is Faramir and Eowyn wholesome tutoring sessions in the Minas Tirith library (!)Â
I feel like itâd be an exchange; Faramir teaches Eowyn his love of books and writing and in return she teaches him the many, MANY, songs of the Rohirrim that have never been written anywhere.
Iâm cryingâŠâŠâŠ.. because what if they co-author a book of Rohhirim folk tales and history together T_T
Also Faramir keeps trying to over-analyze everything like âAh, I see, the horse keeps tripping because we all must stumble our way through the unpredictable nature of this worldâ and sheâs like âNo babe, the horse keeps tripping because itâs funny and this is a story used to cheer up frightened children.â
i love the idea of faramir being super excited about rohirric folk tales and very seriously looking eowyn in the eye and saying âif you donât teach me these songs and we donât write them down This Instant theyâll be lost foreverâ ⊠passionate cultural preservation
meanwhile eowynâs just fondly humouring him bc my dude weâve been doing this memorising and singing thing forever itâll be fine donât worry

I find it adorable how in SNW it's apparent that spock gets invited to girls' night out frequently, and he just sits there with them at the bar with his glass of luke warm water listening to them tell stories he absolutely doesn't understand, but he seems to enjoy being there nonetheless.
And it is also like a cute little continuety thing with TOS that tells us why he's so comfortable and friendly with Uhura, playing the lyre as she sings and allowing her to flirt with him in a friendly way.
