Welcome to the Three Sentence Fic-A-Thon:

Photobucket


This is a challenge where you answer a prompt with a fic consisting of only three sentences. It's open to all fandoms and you can post and answer as many prompts as you like. Only one prompt per comment please.

When posting a prompt please format it this way:

fandom, character/pairing, prompt word/sentence.

Lastly, please pimp this to your flist, I'd like as many as possible to come and participate!

Have fun!

If you have any questions ask them to the first comment.

Edit December 10th: Thanks to the brilliant [livejournal.com profile] grim_lupine we now have a delicious account. So head on over there to find some unfilled prompts: three_sentence_ficathon's delicious bookmarks.

A small note from [livejournal.com profile] grim_lupine who's organizing the delicious archive: "So I'm not familiar with all the fandoms here; sometimes when people post a ficlet they abbreviate a fandom and sometimes they don't (like BSG versus Battlestar Galactica, but I know that one) so I might have it listed twice in the delicious tags. If someone notices something messed up they can comment below." -- So do that, and when requesting something new, please use the fandom's whole name.

Romeo and Juliet, Paris, A bookish lad
(Oh please, someone fill this. I swear I will love you forever if you do.)

So my mental image is of Paris at the costume party in the 1996 version, in an astronaut suit

Also, it turned out kind of weird


Paris may be a count, but as a small child he was more interested in the books in his father's library. He could disappear into the room of books for hours, hiding underneath pages of adventures outside the stifling city of Verona.

This is where he learns he ought to be a man of wax.

Oh wow, this is wonderful and not weird at all. Take my heart, it is yours. That last line is a killer and explains everything about him.

I always felt bad for him because he was seriously in love with Juliet, but she never spared him a second glance. (Also, what magical version is this where he wears an astronaut suit?)

Awww, thank you bb! ♥

Yeah, he's kind of sidelined in the story in general. (It's the 1996 sort of modern!AU version starring Leo diCaprio and Claire Danes. I personally prefer it to the 1968 version. They have a costume party instead of a masquerade ball in this version.)

First reaction: hee, Paris Hilton in House of Wax.

Second reaction, after first reaction has been squelched: this is really good.

Hahaha, coincidence?

Thank you! :D
