The Shatterdome's Multi-fandom Pacific Rim Challenge
To celebrate the movie's tenth anniversary this year, The Shatterdome discord server is hosting a Flash Bingo. This is a small, Pacific Rim-themed event open to ALL THE FANDOMS!
I’ll list some info below but feel free to check out the AO3 collection (for full FAQ, Rules, Prompts, etc) and join the Discord if you’re going to partake (or just lurk, we don’t bite much)!
The event in a nutshell:
The bingo will run from May 1, 2023, to January 1, 2024
No fanwork minimums; anyone can create content for any fandom
There are 5 cards with 5 prompts each (i.e., 25 total prompts). They range from Locations, Jaeger Tech, PPDC Roles, Quotes, and Writing Styles.
You can create a fanfic, artwork, podfic, fanvid, gifset, or mood board for your fills
Mainly just for fun and to get more involved in the fandom communities!
Feel free to send an Ask or hit me up on Discord if you’ve got additional questions/need clarification on any prompts. :D Please reblog to spread the word!
Welcome to the second Leverage Summer Flash Bingo! We have five summer-themed cards for you to choose from, each with five prompts. No sign-ups necessary, just grab any of the cards and start creating!
Fills are accepted for the whole month of August. When you have a fill, please submit it using this form. The form is used to make the weekly round-up Tumblr posts and to send out Participant and Bingo badges at the end of the flash bingo.
You can also add fills to our Leverage Summer Flash Bingo 2022 Ao3 collection and mention @leverage-bingo in your Tumblr posts so we can reblog them!
Hi! How do I sign up to write for Merlin Bingo? I'd love to participate! Thank you!
Hi sweetie,
The first round is now over, so sign ups are closed for the moment while we the mods rest and recuperate for a little bit.
However!
On 1st December, we'll be starting our first flash bingo. Unlike the regular bingo, there are no sign ups for this. Instead, we'll be posting six cards, each with five prompts on it, and anyone who wants to play can pick a card and get creating! As with the regular bingo, there'll be badges for participating (completing one fill) and bingo (filling all five prompts on one card). We'll also be running a second flash bingo throughout January, just to keep you all busy while we get ready for round two.
As for round two, we'll make an announcement as soon as we have the schedule polished, and another when sign ups open, so watch this space!
To celebrate the end of round one, we’re hosting a flash bingo!
We’re super excited, because this flash bingo is open to everyone! That’s right. So, if you missed the chance to sign up for round one of Sam Wilson Bingo, you have a chance to take part in a flash bingo while we wait for round two!
Flash bingo starts from today, and will end on October 3rd!
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to send us an ask through the ask box.
Here are the five cards with five prompts to chose from:
All you have to do is chose from any cards (or all have five!) and create/write however you want the prompt to be interpreted as. Have fun!

SSB Square Filled: Taken Captive
All Caps Flash Square Filled: Taken Captive
Pairing: Steve Rogers x Reader
Warnings: Read is kidnapped, but no depiction of violence!
Summary: Reader is an hour late for lunch with Steve. He can’t shake the feeling something has happened to her. When he learns that she’s been taken, the Captain springs into action.
“Excuse me, Miss?” A man stepped out in front of you on the street.
“Hi.” You greeted him politely and tried to walk past. The man side stepped so that he was still in your way. “Sorry, I’m in a bit of a hurry.” You apologized.
“On your way to see Captain Rogers I imagine.” The man commented. “I’m afraid you’re going to miss that appointment, Miss.” He said before indicating the gun hidden beneath his jacket.
“He’ll come looking for me.” You insisted.
“That’s what we’re counting on.” The man grinned. “Into the car.” He nodded to an all-black car that pulled up beside you. “It would be better for you to come quietly.” You nodded letting them man know that you understood what he was saying. Someone got out of the car and held the door open for you. The last thing you remembered was climbing into the back of the car.
“Hey Gramps, you forget where you are? Need someone to walk you home?” Tony Stark teased Steven when he found the Captain standing in the lobby of the tower, frowning at his watch.
“Ha-ha.” Steve laughed sarcastically. “I’m waiting on [Y/N.]” She was supposed to meet me here for lunch. I suppose she could have gotten hung up with something, but she’s almost an hour late. That’s not like her.”
“I’m sure she’s fine, but if you’re really worried, you can try calling her work.” Tony shrugged.
“Maybe I will. I hate to bother her, but I feel like there’s something else going on here.” As Tony walked away, Steve dialed the number to your office.
No one had heard from you at work. When you didn’t come back from lunch on time, your assistant had assumed that you’d gone to meet a client downtown. She started to panic when Steve explained you’d never arrived to lunch. He tried his best to assure her everything would be fine before ending the call. After all you’d gotten wrapped up in work before.
However, before he’d even hung up the phone, his heart was racing, and his palms were sweaty. He knew something had happened to you. Slightly more troubling than that, he knew that with every second that passed the chances of finding you become slimmer and slimmer. He wished he’d thought to hide a GPS tracker in your purse. He wished he’d noticed sooner that you were missing. He wished he knew where the hell you were.
“We’ll fine her.” Tony insisted.
“How can you be so sure?” Steve questioned, wishing he shared his friend’s confidence. “We’ve tried tracking her phone, it’s been turned off or destroyed. She’s not showing up on any surveillance cameras we have in the city. We don’t even know if she’s in the city.”
“Oh, we know.” Tony disagreed. With a snap of his fingers a hologram map of the city popped up between the two of them. A small red blip was flashing on the edge of the city.
“How?” Steve asked, studying the map.
“Well, someone had to microchip your girlfriend just in case she got kidnapped.” Tony shrugged. “And before you lecture me, it was consensual. I’m not just going around injecting trackers against the will of our loved ones. Now you want to lecture me about this or you want to go get her?”
“This conversation isn’t over.” Steve insisted. He ran from the room to get changed, while he did his phone rang. He answered even though he didn’t recognize the number.
“Captain Rogers, we have something of yours.” A disguised voice said on the other end.
“I’ve noticed.” Steve commented. He tucked his cellphone into the crook of his neck and tugged on the pants to his uniform. “I suppose this is the part where you give me your list of demands?” He huffed.
“We want only one thing, you.” The voice explained.
“Well, that’s good, because you were getting me whether you wanted or not. Congratulations, whoever you are, you’ve officially got my attention. Now you’re going to wish that you hadn’t.” Steve hung up on the kidnapper, finished dressing and grabbed his shield.
The cards are below the cut, so feel free to peruse and pick the one you want. There are no signups required for the flash bingo, but you will have to fill out this form to get your badge if you get a bingo.
The flash bingo will last until the end of the month, and masterposts need to be in by March 5th so we can share it on the Grand Masterpost.
If you’re posting to AO3, make sure to post to the BBB Special Events collection, and if you post/share on Tumblr, make sure to @ us and tag #bbbflash2021 so we see it. We’ve also got our Discord server open as well so you can share there.
Same rules apply as with the regular bingo concerning what counts as a fill, and all other rules. If you need a refresher, you can read those here, and the FAQ is here.
This bit is important, so please read. Different from our previous full and flash bingos, we are now requiring you to fill out a submission form every time you make a fill. This is to make it easier to track fills on our spreadsheets and put together the weekly roundup. If you do not fill out the form for every fill, we will not know you have made them, and you will not get your badges.
Let us know if you’ve got questions, and LET THE FLASH BEGIN!
This flash bingo will last one month, May 1st - 31st (and we will have another one in June.)
Here are the AO3 and Discord links that you can share your creations to!
IMPORTANT!
We’re implementing a fill submission form for all fills that will make the mods’ lives easier. EVERY FILL MUST BE SUBMITTED VIA THIS FORM! You can absolutely share it on all your social media platforms, but don’t forget to submit the form!
Our regular rules as pertain to content and minimum fill info still stand, and here are the links to FAQ and Rules and Dates.
The cards under the cut, so go grab one and get started!
AND DON’T FORGET TO FILL OUT THE FORM WHEN YOU POST A FILL!
