the island of misfit prompts



Because sometimes you can't decide what meme to post to and you'd rather choose from a bunch of random disjointed prompts instead.


1. You're trapped in a McDonald's. It's only a matter of time until the McNuggets run out or the McFlurry machine breaks …
2. You're trapped in an elevator and it's like that M. Night Shamawhatever movie so the devil is haunting you in it and you're probably going to die.
3. You're trapped in one of those giant meat freezers and slowly freezing to death with the other person in the thread. Will you huddle together for warmth like Seth Green in that one move?
4. tfln. Everyone good random prompt meme needs tfln.
5. mpreg. See above. Aliens? Genetic mutations? That breeding stable meme redux? It happened, and now you've got to get your shit together.
6. You have a big secret to tell the other person and now is your only chance.
7. You woke up naked in a hotel room with the other person and no clue how you got there. This is some The Hangover-type shit.
8. Kinky times. Because every random meme needs a smut prompt, too. Get your 50 Shades of Grey on.
9. Body horror. You and/or person b are mutating into a zombie/robot/vampire/furry/cthulu/etc. and it's freaky ass shit.
10. Disney time. You and person b are now acting out the Disney movie of your choice.
11. Roadtrip! One car, one … cup?
12. Ghost, Patrick Swayze style. You or person b is a ghost, and now you're trying to communicate with them from the other side. (NO POTTERY.)
13. Human centipede. I'll just leave this one up for interpretation.
14. Mr. and Mrs. Smith. You and person b are both keeping huge secrets from each other, but one of you is getting ~~suspicious~~!
15. High school AU. What it says on the tin.
16. ZOMBIES!!!!!! Were you bitten? Are you hiding out in a shack somewhere in the middle of a post-apocalyptic wasteland? Better figure that shit out.
17. A raccoon is trapped in the house and now you and person b have to figure out how the fuck to kill it.
18. You're dying a slow tragic death so you better get those last words the fuck out.
19. You're possessed by a ghost/demon/yeerk/whatever the fuck. Fight for dominance or … don't, no one actually gives a shit.
20. You're connected by a red string of fate to the other person and you follow it and find them and hook up? Get hella kawaii.

I don't remember you teaching me this part. [ it's a light hearted jab, one that doesn't have a sting like it might coming from her brother. as much as luke might have influenced their growing up with his jedi training, jaina's always been her mother's daughter.

she jumps up, driving the blade into the roof of the car as it ignites. sparks fly. ]

[hannah smiles - the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Not this particular apple, anyway. ] It was subtle.

[she refrains from warning the girl - woman, really - to be careful. Hannah doesn't need to baby her anymore. She lifts her hands to instinctively shield herself from the sparks. ]

Are we between floors? I can lift you up.

swordofthejedi: (hill up the road)

It's been a little while since I needed a boost, Mom. [ another little solo smirk, and then she rockets upwards in an impossible jump, grasping the lid and pulling her torso out to look around as she grabs hold of the cable up there for ballast. ]

Looks like it. We're probably going to have to climb.
parsec: (I've got a bad feeling about this)

[personal profile] parsec 2012-09-17 07:02 am (UTC)(link)
[Hannah rolls her eyes at the teasing, but knows she's inviting it. She's skeptical about the climbing. Hannah's in pretty good shape for her age, but it's been a long damn time since she's done something like that. Not that it's going to stop her from trying.]

Good. Great. Looking forward to it.

[She looks up, sizing up the situation.] I might need a little help.
swordofthejedi: (a mustard seed was good enough)

[personal profile] swordofthejedi 2012-09-19 02:18 am (UTC)(link)
[ she lowers an arm back down for her mom to grab onto, keeping her grip on the cable with her other hand. ]

Since you asked nicely.

[with Jaina's help, she manages to pull herself up and join her daughter in the space above the elevator car. she was right - not as easy as it used to be. ] Thanks.

[she looks up - they're thankfully a long way from the top of the shaft, but Hannah can't help but think about how this could go terribly wrong. she might also be looking for bugs. you know. just in case.]

How far up are we goin'?
swordofthejedi: (won't tire me)

[personal profile] swordofthejedi 2012-09-19 10:33 am (UTC)(link)
Afraid of heights suddenly?
parsec: (hrmpf ~ laugh it up fuzzball)

[personal profile] parsec 2012-09-19 08:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course not. [bugs, Jaina. think of all the things lurking up there just waiting to ruin Hannah's day.]

I'll go first if you are. [smirk.]
swordofthejedi: (a blade over my head)

[personal profile] swordofthejedi 2012-09-26 03:54 am (UTC)(link)
Don't want you to strain yourself. [ she grasps the cord and gives it a preliminary tug, before jumping up and starting to scale it ]
parsec: (neutral ~ wild eyes)

[personal profile] parsec 2012-10-02 03:59 am (UTC)(link)
I've got it.

[she lets Jaina get up a ways before following. Hell, she feels old. This is going to hurt tomorrow.]

Whatdya think will annoy your dad more? If I show up late to this meeting, or if I show up looking like I climbed up a lift shaft? [she's grinning. didn't really want to go to the meeting anyway.]
