[#258 | Scars] Challenge Post

Challenge 258:
SCARS

Most wounds heal, but not entirely. Sometimes they leave something behind.

Some scars are worn like a badge of honor, a reminder of a challenge or a victory, shown off to anybody who’ll listen; other scars are hidden, bad memories tucked away under makeup or clothing, a reminder of something no one talks about. Some scars don’t leave physical marks, but linger all the same.

What kind of scars do your characters have? Do they talk about them? Do they show them to anyone, or keep them to themselves?

Write a story about scars.

BONUS GOAL: Blood Red

If your submission features the color red, it will earn an extra point to be tallied in voting!

Starter

FIRST DATE STARTERS

Let's get this show on the road. No need to wait, start a scene!

RULES
○ Comment with your character and preferences.
○ If someone wants to tag you, they'll send you one of the following sentence starters, either their own choice or picked by the mighty RNG.
○ Using that one sentence, you build a thread from there.

( + )

Pet names

PET NAME PROMPTS

comment with your character + prefs.
other folks will reply with what affectionate nickname their character would call yours if they were significant others...because now, they are!
pet names can be a simple riff on/shortening of someone's name, cute, stupid, sexy (babe, etc), serious (my sun and stars), time period appropriate (dollface), or just plain weird. sky's the limit.
from that one(ish) word prompt, threads spring eternal. shippy, smutty, adventure-filled, angsty, cracky, whatever. go with it!

Incest

The (possibly AU) Sibling Incest Meme

Incest is, despite its taboo nature in most societies, actually a pretty popular convention in both romantic fiction and works of a more erotic bent, in everything from period or fantasy pieces to series taking place in places like modern day Japan. Still, the most common configuration in these fictions are the pairing of siblings. Perhaps this is because of the usual lack of age difference and power dynamic that exists in child/adult relative pairings, though this is not always the case. Because of this, a sexual or romantic relationship between siblings can almost seem, well, romantic in the right light. Of course, more often than not, there's a dark side under the veneer of forbidden love.

This meme is for those who would like to play out that, either the darkness or the light - or both.

HOW TO PLAY

-Comment with your character and preferences. Be sure to mention any hard lines you have.
-Comment around to others. PLEASE NOTE THAT IN ORDER TO FACILITATE CROSS-CANON TAGGING, THIS MEME WILL BE CONSIDERED AN AU FAIR GAME ZONE. Feel free to comment in with characters who do not canonically have siblings or comment to people from other fandoms.
-Be respectful of others.

When You Fall Into a Bottomless Pit, You Die of Starvation

HOLED UP

You and whoever replies to you are stuck together after falling in a hole.

You're in a deep, dark pit that you can't climb out of easily, and you're trapped together. Maybe it was a trapping pit, maybe it was an open manhole cover, maybe an uncovered well or elaborate secret trap in a spooky house - but whatever the cause was, you two fell for it. Literally.

Night

— city at night meme

You've got the world around you yawning with potential, possibilities fanning out before your very eyes—after all, they say the city doesn't sleep at night. The skyline's illuminated with glittering lights, and even now, the streets are bustling with activity. So here's the real question: where are you at this hour?

Bouquet

the floriography meme

Flowers, in the Victorian Era (1837-1901), were often used as means of communication when people could not openly say things that we do these days. Think about someone who is naturally repressed; now imagine a whole society focusing on being repressed. You can see why lovers needed some sort of secret code. Poor things.

No longer used much, there are some remaining, well-known meanings—roses inspiring passion and love are a classic example. So, grab a bouquet and give it to someone special. Beware of what certain flowers could say, though. Not all flowers were used happily.

A secret admirer

SECRET ADMIRER meme

You're in love with them, but they don't know it and you have no real intention of changing this. Whether it's because you don't want to admit anything to yourself, can't handle rejection, don't think you're good enough, or have no real experience with this kind of thing, your lips are sealed...for now. And maybe forever, if you're contented to love them from afar.

That is, if the object of your affection doesn't figure you out first.

HOW TO PLAY

Comment with your character, preferences, and whether they'd be the admirer or the admired.
Reply to others.
RNG it or not.

Mid-Fuck

Are you tired of building up to the act? Do you sometimes wish for a chance to skip all the conversation and go straight for the experience?

In that case, rejoice! This ~~hole~~ meme was made for you!

RULES:

Post with your character's name, fandom and pairing preferences in the subject line.

Your character is now in the middle of having sex! Any location, sexual position and level of undress is allowed, so knock yourself out with establishing the scene of your dreams.

Comment around! See if there's anyone else who posted a perfect scene for your character to fuck in.

Keep going and finish the act. Then go for another round or have fun with cuddling and afterplay.

PROFIT. Or in this case, fun to be had for all.
