Welcome to the Three Sentence Fic-A-Thon:

[caramelsilver]

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 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 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.

Narnia, Lucy, tricked

[grim-lupine.livejournal.com]

It's a trick, you see, the girl says, smiling at him enigmatically, nothing like the foolish vacant little-girl smile she had bestowed upon him earlier; the Calormen soldier grits his teeth and draws his sword in one smooth movement, ready to stab through this foul witch around whom the trees dance and whisper, who stands prouder than any woman he has ever seen.

He hasn't taken more than a step forward before the girl makes a quick throwing motion, and her knife goes flying, scoring a line of hot pain across his arm; the next instant he hears the drumming thunder of horse's hooves, and he knows he is lost.

Your name?, he asks, for he would know the name of the one who lied to him so bold-faced and is so much more than she seems; Queen Lucy the Valiant, she says quietly, of Narnia.

OH THIS. ♥ This is absolutely amazing! I love how daring and slightly amoral Lucy is, nothing like book!Lucy (and I love that she is completely different from the bookverse), and it's just so chilling and perfect.

This is awesome :)

Yay, thank you! I'm glad you liked it. :D Lucy in the books is still more of a child than the rest of them, even when she's already grown up in Narnia, and I wanted to explore a different side of her.

The Magician's Niece, Lucy, tricked

The crowd goes wild with applause as Lucy Swiftfoot skips lightly across the stage - this is a woman who has braved ropes of fire, tamed lions, faced Death squarely in the eye, and still has time to laugh. And then the unthinkable happens - Lucy stumbles, falls, and doesn't move; the audience holds its collective breath even though it can't be real, it couldn't possibly, but as the minutes lengthen, some of them bow their heads in honor of a great artist.


Suddenly she leaps from the platform above the stage, throwing knives precisely at the center of the target as she falls through the air, then deftly kicks the dummy aside and laughs at them, "You thought I was dead again, didn't you?" she says into the silence.
