What if for the prompts, we use writing cliches/tropes? Like 'it was a dark and stormy night' or 'only true love's kiss can break the spell', etc.?

As for team themes; it'd be nice to return to the first one: angst vs. fluff. But the prompts suggestions will work for any teams.

I actually thought of doing something a bit like that, with tropes? Like, 'wingfic' and 'high school AU' and 'undercover at a gay bar,' all those old slash cliche fics, but i couldn't see how to present it as a team option. XD

I like tropes! Maybe we could use that in a theme, like, a remix of canon vs au, where tropes are provided (mistaken for married, wingfic, highschool au, reincarnated romance, etc etc) and are used instead of prompts, e.g. canon highschool au (in which Kuro and Fai and the gang land in a boarding school and are promptly swapped by fangirls), or au reincarnated romance (where Kuro and Fai have died multiple times because of tragedy and are yet to find the one life where they are together and die permanently) or something.

Using horrible cliches as prompts to do a fluff vs. au would be the actual best olympics we've ever had, just sayin' >.>

LET'S TRY THIS AGAIN WITHOUT THE POCKET POST, THANKS PHONE

I REALLY like the idea of a troperiffic/cliché au vs canon fic and I think it would be great fun, but it would also need to be popular! While I will be artificially capping team sizes this time (not yet sure how many people per team tho), I do want a fun event that everyone wants to participate in rather than a fun event that *I* want to participate in, you know?

(AU VS CANON WINGFIC OH MY GOOOOOOOOOOOD)

i think one of our prompts needs to be 'healing cock' mostly because i just want to see the srs team do that
