Do you want to be part of the chaotic, collaborative writing experiment that is our Fic Chain? Now’s your chance!
📖 How the Fic Chain Works
Mods will draw the prompt at random from the 48 long prompts in the Collection and share it with participants.
Everyone who joins the initiative will be put in order to determine the writing turns, like in a Round Robin story.
Each participant continues the story exactly where the last writer left off.
You only write a short section (a minimum of 500 words), then pass the pen to the next in line.
Your section must form a complete scene (no cliffhanger mid-dialogue or scene abruptly cut off). Wrap up what you start before handing it over!
No rewrites, no takebacks: the fic grows wild and unpredictable!
When the chain is complete, the full fic will be published in our AO3 Collection for everyone to enjoy.
✅ The Fic Chain will start once at least five participants have signed up.
🧩 Why Join?
It’s low pressure: you only need to write a small piece.
It’s creative chaos: no one knows where it will go.
It’s teamwork: the final fic belongs to everyone.
🏅 And yes—this counts toward your Games & Badges progress! You will earn the Fic Chain Badge for your participation!

Haha so @parkerpeter24 loves a Marathon!Haz... So here's a fic chain we're gonna start 😁. Hope you enjoy ♥
You were continuously tracking your best-friend via. the London Marathon app. He will be completing the ten mile mark soon. And that's where you were standing. The place was full of cheering people. As their friends and family members who participated passed by the mark, they were leaving probably for the next mark.
"Y/n!!! Y/n!!! HERE!" Harrison screamed on the top of his lungs in his tired screechy voice, waving at you from the mass of runners. You jumped on your feet, reaching forward to give him a high five. Your hands brushed and he smiled, waving you a bye and moving ahead while the charity organizers passed him a bottle of water.
"See you on the finish line!" You yelled sure he will do it! He had practiced a lot. He had spend days. He will do it!
You came out of your car to the finish line, waiting for him. It will at least take him another forty minutes to reach here. You were eagerly waiting for him, a bit nervous though. You prayed with your hand on your heart when a lot of people crossed the finish line but he was nowhere to be seen.
Wow, this certainly took a while, sorry @itsladykit TnT But here it is finally :D More of the Atypical Fic Chain!
Part 1
Part 2

Nowhere was far as the dragon flies, but even as Braise lead the way, Twist flying high just behind him, he had to admit the way home felt longer and longer every time he took it.
It was strange, unnatural and highly unpleasant, going to Twist for help. It went against his very nature to leave his hatchlings behind to go ask for assistance, from Twist of all people, but there was no way he was leaving his brood unprotected while he took care of this new upstart that seemed to not care of the way of their people. And Twist was...what Braise knew of Twist outside of their heats wasn’t much more than a dragon protecting his territory. But there were moments...brief, so brief that he nearly had forgotten them, of Twist being gentle with him, after heat.
He’d always left immediately after he’d regained his energy, and Braise had never expected or thought more on it. As a dragon himself, he had no interest in one of his own kind outside of heat. But...somehow, he knew that Twist wouldn’t leave his own hatchlings unprotected.
He rumbled lowly, the frequency carrying through the air around him, an answering roar coming from behind. They were close.
If he looked down he could see the tiny black dot moving along at near illegal speeds to keep up with them. It looked like a beetle from so high up, traveling along a brown branch surrounded by leaves. If anything happened to Twist’s hoard down below, their flight would stop immediately. But, as he caught the glint of the lake his home was situated next to, he rumbled again, letting the air flow under his wings lessen as he began to descend.
The two massive dragons landed on a deck Braise had built out over the water, the wood creaking and water splashing up from the force of the wind coming off the beats of their wings as the two of them slowly transformed back into their usual forms. Twist was still making noises of discontent, the displeasure at his hoard being so far from his territory and so far into Braise’s more than apparent.
Instead of attempting to console him, Braise ignored him, leaving his back unguarded as he headed down the deck to the sliding glass doors of the massive wooden lodge. He breathed deep as he opened them and stepped inside, savoring the wood and smokey smells of home. Leaving the door open, he grabbed a simple robe from the hooks by the door, wrapping it around himself before moving across the large front room to stand in the middle.
Twist had already stepped inside, clothed in the simple shirt and shorts he’d packed in the satchel tied to the inside of his rib cage.
“You can let your...mates in through the front door down that hall, love. I’ll wait here.” He nodded to an offshoot from the main room, sitting on one of the leather couches with his hands in his lap. Twist glared at him for a long moment, before finally growling.
“If I come back and ya aren’ here, I’ll tear ya apart.”
Braise smirked. “Gotcha.”
Twist clicked his fangs, clearly unpleased with the whole situation, then marched down the corridor. Braise soon heard the sound of several people talking from down the hall, watching carefully as Twist came back with the vampire and the other two right behind. The vampire regarded him with a ferocious wariness, standing between him and the other two new hoarded. Then, eyes moving back to Twist, Braise stood, hands behind his back.
“I suppose its time to...introduce my brood.” His eyelights lit up, flashing a dark, deep crimson. “If any of your hoard hurt them, I will not hesitate to kill them.”
Twist growled, huffing smoke through his nasal aperture even as he scraped his foot against the floor. “They won’t. Ya have my word.” It was clear just by the look on his face that he didn’t intend on giving Braise the chance even if something did happen. But...there was also a distinct angry indignation on the expression of the vampire. It quelled his worry, not by much, but enough to make him relax his offensive stance.
Braise tilted his head, then nodded, waving for them to follow. He hoped, for his hatchlings sake, that nothing unpleasant happened.
