This theme runs for the entire month. If you have any questions, just ask!
Thursday - Birthdays
Today's theme is birthdays. Mine’s in a few days so it got me thinking. Have your characters celebrate their birthdays, the birthdays of their loved ones. Do they arrange a birthday month celebration for themselves? Do they avoid birthdays? Are they happy or sad? What is a birthday like for an immortal character? What if they’re a clone? There are so many possibilities to explore
Just a few rules:
No more than five prompts in a row.
No more than three prompts in the same fandom.
Use the character's full names and the fandom's full name
No spoilers in prompts for a month after airing, or use the spoiler cut option found here.
If your fill contains spoilers, warn and leave plenty of space, or use the above-mentioned spoiler cut.
If your story has possible triggers, please warn for them in the subject line!
Prompts should be formatted as follows: [Use the character's full names and fandom's full name]
Fandom, Character +/ Character, Prompt
Some examples to get the ball rolling...
+ The Owl House, Hunter + any, picking a birthday date since he was technically ‘born’ out of a magical pit
+ Hazbin Hotel Angel Dust/Husk + any, Angel uses his birthday to finally tell his friends about his twin sister, Molly
+ Hazbin Hotel, Arackniss (any Italian name you’d like to give him) + Molly, her birthday the first year after losing her twin, Angel (Anthony)
+ Star Trek(any), any, a non-Earth celebration
