I neglected to ask this year, but if anyone has a spare set, I'd gratefully take 'em

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Every year I ask someone to get me a set, and every year I forget who it was! Maybe Minnow, I think...

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Oh, yeah, I must have promised someone a set, so...good question.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I wonder if this could help writing fic.

How much prompt is too much? One of the artista in the reverse bang is doing 5 ch for each of her prompts. She is mad talented and publicly fast since she is doing two prompts, five each.
She's got a great sense of story and her pics are always emotional. So I wonder how writers work with that. Doing a collaboration with her would be amazing. But five is a pretty big prompt.
Would you, as a writer feel backed against a wall?

Because books.
Five does seem like a lot. With that many, she's sort of telling the story for you.

Would you, as a writer feel backed against a wall?
Probably. But it would depend. I did fine with a prompt once that was, like, "Shoelaces, sacrifice, blue". I can deal with that, or with a random quote.
But the prompts that are like, "Jack falls down a hill and breaks his leg and Daniel has to carry him back to the Stargate and they talk about their childhoods"--those I can't do. You gotta let me see the story myself, and I will fit it to the prompt.
