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.

Personally I think everyone should just appreciate differences in each other and the world would be a better place.

That would be far too logical. I've never understood hating whole groups of people but unfortunately it's still all too common.

Human nature never fails to baffle me. You know, this conversation is extremely relevant to the English paper I'm writing right now. It's about society's tendency to retreat into intolerance and denial as a way of confronting fear of things they don't understand. So technically I'm doing my homework right now. XD

Thank God my next assignment isn't due till January. Sounds like an interesting paper but also potentially hard to write. Good luck with it.

[grim-lupine.livejournal.com]

Thanks! It's bound to be...interesting. XD

[samueljames]

When is it due?

[grim-lupine.livejournal.com]

XD Midnight tomorrow. Ten pages double-spaced, and I have, oh, three. No one procrastinates quite like I do. XD

[samueljames]

Oops, don't think they'd take all your Shelter fics instead :)

My last one was started at 10pm and sent at 11:53pm the day it was due (distance learning) and the tutor's comments were "obviously rose to the challenge." I tell you it was all down to the panic. I always get writing ideas when I have an assignment due, procrastination is definitely one of my weaknesses.

[grim-lupine.livejournal.com]

XD Exactly. My thinking is, I work best under pressure. And I keep getting distracted by all the other stuff I want to do. I should just disable my internet when I'm writing a paper. XD

[samueljames]

Good idea to disconnect, just realised how late it is here (05:40) so better head off to bed. Hope you get some writing done, not the fanfic kind :)

[grim-lupine.livejournal.com]

Thanks :) I'm forcing myself to just write whatever I'm thinking; often that ends up working. Then I need to go to bed soon as well. XD

I think the rationalization is that the world's a zero-sum game; if 'we' are to win, and obviously 'we' are to win, then 'they' must lose, and if 'they' don't have the sense to be losing when the game's fair, 'we' are required to tilt things in 'our' favor, which can manifest as anything from letting doors close in people's faces to the Holocaust.

Some people definitely have a them and us attitude but to my mind eevryone is different. Thankfully attitudes are changing somewhat.
