[laserswordtraining]

I am…..considering making a Tortured Poets Department writing fest, like with the songs as the prompts, any fandom, any ship, any dynamic, would that be crazy? Would that be wild?

(I’m going to make a tumblr and Ao3 for it actually, don’t let it flop)

[lcdrarry]

We know, it's not everybody's cup of tea, but we'd like more eyes on this lovely fest. Prompting is still open for a few more days! <3 so give them some love by prompting and sharing, thank you!!

Prompting for the 2025 H/D MPREG Fest is now open!

-

PROMPTING GUIDELINES

Prompting will run from 20 January 2025 to 1 February 2025.

Claiming will open on 3 February 2025.

Prompts are submitted via AirTable. Click here.

You may submit up to 10 prompts. The form will accept one prompt at a time.

You may leave prompts without intending to claim.

You may prompt for yourself. The Form will accommodate this.

Prompts must follow the Fest Rules.

If you are prompting a work that you wish to have turned into a podfic, you must have the consent of the original author. Evidence of this consent must be shown before the prompt can be accepted. Authors are welcome to submit their own works for podfic creation.

Remember that this is a prompts fest, not a gift exchange. Creators are afforded their creative license. Do not make your prompts excessively detailed.

Prompts cannot be edited after they are submitted. If there is something that absolutely must be changed, please contact the Mods to discuss. Anonymous prompts may not be altered.

Once prompts are submitted, they will be available in the gallery. The gallery will typically update live, however some prompts may require Mod review, in which case they will be available after they are approved.

Let's get creative!

Welcome to Day 1 of The Tortured Poets Fest!

Click the links listed below to check out all of the content our lovely Tortured Poets have created for all of us today! (and go to our bio to access the rest of the AO3 Collection)

✍️ Down on all fours (demanding more) by the_prettiest_wolf_star

Ships: Marlene McKinnon/Sirius Black, Marlene McKinnon/Sirius Black/Remus Lupin, Sirius Black/Remus Lupin

Rating: E

Summary:

A spiked drink starts Sirius' heat while Remus is too far away to provide any relief. So he turns to his best friend for help.

🕯 one more time by @takenbytheview

Ship: Pansy Parkinson/Neville Longbottom

Rating: M

Summary:

The first time Pansy Parkinson looks in his window is an accident.

Or: Four evenings in Hogsmeade, inspired by Taylor Swift’s Tortured Poets Department album.

🗝is it something I did? by sun_litsoul (art)

Ship: Regulus Black & Sirius Black

Rating: Gen

Summary:

Sirius and Regulus made a pinky promise that they would always stay together.

But with time passing the promise got broken and all that is left is the question "is it something I did?"

📜 Tell Me Something by Hope_Belle

Ship: Hermione Granger/Draco Malfoy

Rating: M

Summary:

Two years after the war, the Ministry launched The Cultural Reconciliation Initiative, anonymously assigning a Muggle-born to a convicted Death Eater for regular correspondence as a part of their probation.

Hermione is locked away in her secret garden of books and predictability, enrolled in The Healer Academy in Edinburgh and set on being normal.

Draco has never been normal but after standing trial, discovering Muggle London, and befriending Neville Longbottom of all people, he's even less so. Studying for his Potions Mastery in Paris was always a part of the plan but realizing his anonymous pen pal is Hermione Granger? That was certainly not.

🖌 The Tortured Poets Department by @whoopsiesnodaisies

Ship: Bellatrix Black Lestrange/Rita Skeeter

Rating: T

Summary:

Rita Skeeter is a broke journalist and all she wants is a good story and a paycheck. She catches the eye of Bellatrix Black and ends up far more invested and intrigued than she had ever planned to be.

But at the end of the day, she's a journalist, and she has a job to do.

𓇢𓆸 turn your back on mother nature by @poetskings

Ship: Regulus Black/James Potter

Rating: E

Summary:

The first thing he notices is the beach view. For what the shitty motel cost, it’s really quite stunning. The sea is rough but welcoming, a deep, dark blue that contrasts with the red flags fluttering in the light breeze.

Regulus makes his way over to the window, opening it and feeling the breeze wisp through his hair, so soft it feels like a caress. Hello, it says, are you ready for what comes next?

Or, James has been chasing storms for as long as he's known what a storm is, and Regulus is his favourite one to chase.

The main pairing for all submissions is Draco Malfoy/Harry Potter ("Drarry"). Participants can include any side-pairings, original characters or characters from the remixed works as long as the final submission is still a Drarry-centric piece.
