Drabbles must be exactly 100 words and include the daily word prompt.
The word prompt can be used in any tense.
(Ex: Run, Runs, Running, Ran all would work for the prompt, 'Run'.)
All Ships / Fanfics / OC works are accepted! If you wrote it, we want to read it!
NSFW is allowed, but we request you add a 'Mature' label to your post.
Please include clear content labels on all posts and in your tags.
(Ex: cussing, pregnancy, drugs / alcohol, gore, NSFW items. We trust that you know your target audience the best and to label accurately.)
*A Note: Content labels are for readers to make an informed decision about what they are consuming. This is not to silence writers.
Please tag your drabble with the appropriate fandom and ships (if applicable.)
Use the tag ' #drabblechallengemay26 ' when sending in your submission. Direct tags cannot be guaranteed to be seen.
Use ' drabblechallengemay26 ' to submit to the A03 Collection.
Have questions? Send an ask in to the Drabble Team!
Please specify who, gender of the other person if there should be one involved, and a situation! I really wanna write more of them they’re fun and less stressful!
//Edited as of June 5th, 2018. Nothing much has changed, I just added one thing and removed the stuff about this weeks drabble.
Ok, so I think I will go ahead with the weekly drabble idea. Drabbles will be posted on Tuesdays (though they most likely will not have a set time). You guys are free to send in prompts and/or suggestions for what the drabbles should be about. Before you start sending those in, however, here are some ground rules: IMPORTANT!! PLEASE READ
Rule 1: No NSFW. While I am a legal adult and do not have a problem with NSFW stuff, Okie is 14/15 and asexual. I will not write anything that puts her directly in a sexual situation. Something like Emi making it difficult for Angel and Alex to get some “alone time,” or something like that is fine, but Emi will not be involved in any sexual situation.
Rule 2: I will not write abuse/heavy violence. I’m not comfortable posting that on this blog and I know many people are not comfortable being exposed to it.
Rule 3: I will not write self-harm.
Rule 4: I will not write drug use. Light drinking and maybe light marijuana usage are ok, but nothing else
{Sidenote: I will try to tag anything I see that should be tagged, but I am forgetful and miss things, so don’t be afraid to let me know if I missed a tag.}
Rule 5: Prompts/suggestions may be sent in over the weekend (starting 8:00 am Friday until 9:00 pm Sunday CDT) to give me plenty of time to write the drabble while hopefully not be utterly overwhelmed with suggestions. You guys can send these in through asks, but I don’t know if I have submissions open, so you should probably send them all as asks until I say for sure.
Rule 6: I hope this won’t be a problem but still. This is my blog that I made for my OC. If I receive a prompt that I am uncomfortable with for any of the above reasons, or for any other reasons, I am not under any obligation to use it.
Not really rules, just notes: I am fine with angsty prompts. I don’t know how well I’ll do but I am ok with it, provided it adheres to the above standards.
Also, I will probably save prompts that I do not use for future use/reference. Just because I didn’t use your prompt this week doesn’t mean I won’t.
Some weeks I may post a drabble/writing meme for you guys to send in suggestions from. I don’t know about that yet, but maybe.
So I’m gonna be gone from Thrusday till Monday night because I’m going to my aunt’s memorial and I’m not sure what my wifi situation will be like so i’m going to need something to keep me occupied.
Since i can make icons without wifi, i’ve decided that i will do that and try to write as many drabbles (maybe a fic if i’m lucky) as i can to keep my mind off of things.
So please send in Icon/Drabble/Fic Requests!!
If you are requesting an icon, please:
* State Character/Celebrity
OR
if you submit a picture of yourself I can turn you into an icon
*STATE COLOR OR PATTER. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT THANK YOU.
*Use kind language i.e. please and thank you. Ask politely, because then I feel more inclined to produce your request more quickly.
If you are requesting a drabble/fic, please:
*State the Character and Fandom (NO RPF and You can request Character x Characters, but i’m really bad at them so please try to stick to x Reader)
-I WRITE FOR SPIDER-MAN, DEAR EVAN HANSEN, NEWSIES, HAMILTON, AND I’M TRYING TO WRITE FOR ANASTASIA
*Use a prompt or clearly state one you have made yourself
-HERE ARE SOME PROMPT LIST OPTIONS= Mine, Soulmate, Sarcastic, “The Good Parts”
*SPECIFY SPECIFIC PRONOUNS YOU WOULD LIKE. If not, I tend to default to a she/her identifying reader since I am one and can best relate on how to write it
*Tell me any other information you deem necessary.
Thanks in advance for helping me get away from my mind for a bit ♥
So I’ve gotten a few messages about drabbles and how some people seem a little confused on some stuff so I’m going to explain some things.
What’s a drabble?
“A drabble is a short work of fiction of around one hundred words in length. The purpose of the drabble is brevity, testing the author's ability to express interesting and meaningful ideas in a confined space.” (Found this on Google)
How do I request a drabble?
To request a drabble you will have to send it through my ask box.
What are the rules for requesting a drabble?
The drabble must have prompts from my Prompt List.
You can only request a drabble that has up to 10 prompts for one drabble.
Please add the character(s) you would want the drabble with. If you don’t I will end up choosing character(s) for you.
How does the Prompt List work?
The Prompt List works by reading the prompts that are listed, then using the number that corresponds with the prompt.
Pick out the prompts you want, then send them in with the character(s) you wish!
How many requests can I send?
However many you want!
Can I send a plot that I would want the drabble to be about?
Yep! If you don’t want to, I can usually figure out the kind of plot by the prompts! So it’s really up to you!
When will my drabble request be done?
Whenever I get around to it. I’m going to try and post them when I don’t post an imagine, but we’ll see.
How will I know when drabble requests are open or closed?
It will say in my bio. If you’re still not sure then go ahead and send me an ask!
These were the main questions that I could think of but if you have any more then feel free to ask!
so the thing is, good stories must come to an end sooner rather than later imo (no one wants to keep reading/watching the same plots over and over again just for the sake of reading/watching something with the characters they like).
So I decided the maximum period of time I’ll keep a prompt going here on Tumblr, with daily updates, is going to be a week (sunday to friday). On saturday I’ll relax and mostly reply to asks and/or threads.
If I get a reasonable amount of feedback asking me to continue a certain story, I’ll probably upload all chapters to AO3, and I’ll continue the story there, BUT with no promises of how regularly I’ll update it!
Also, I would like to keep this blog as safe for work as possible, due to the amount of pre-teens and teens on tumblr who happen to be fans of Supergirl. I’ll always try to write the stories in a way that will be neatly round up by the final part here on tumblr, BUT if it leaves room for EXTRA chapters with NSFW content (and again, if I have a good feedback) then I’ll upload the extra chapters to AO3, where you can literally look for or actively avoid NSFW content.
Last, but not least, I’d like to have a voting system going on. I don’t know if I’ll be able to do this properly, but I would love to give it a try: I’ll collect all the prompts you guys send me, and by THURSDAY night, I’ll select THREE prompts that Lena and Kara responded better to, and I’ll post a list with the three. From THURSDAY night to SATURDAY night you’ll vote which one you like best. I’ll write the winner~
