Aug. 1st, 2025 07:14 amAnother thing I'd love to see written more, or write myself again sometime, is more Largo/Guybrush. I have such a weird soft spot for it, and I'm not sure why, since I'm not much of a Guybrush-writer. I need those two in a smutty and mentally unhealthy scenario.
One thing I've been thinking about, though, is how often I think of ideas that I quickly either forget or abandon. This, as well as my last ramble-y similar post, are one of the rare times I write ideas down. Usually they just bounce around in my head until I either a) manage to put one sentence down or b) be all "oh this is such a good idea I'll never forget-- aaand I've forgotten". I need to, every time I think of a prompt, just make a note of it somewhere so that there's no chance of me forgetting. Even if I don't think it's a good idea, or I'm the right guy, or whatever. And I can tell myself I'll get around to writing them eventually, but unfortunately, coming up with ideas takes a lot less time than fulfilling them (and I struggle to finish fics sometimes as it is).
AO3's prompt memes are cool for that sort of thing. Just a large idea dumping ground. As cool as I think it'd be to have a fandom-specific prompt meme collection, I know it'd not get used simply because there's not many of us writing for the fandom anyway (assuming other people did even have an interest in it... but whatever)
