Day 6 of Cageblade Week 2025 is live!

Title: "What Do We Say To The God Of Death?"

Rating : M

Summery:

Every solider knows that there will come a moment when they embrace death as a friend, and for Sonya Blade that moment has come. With time growing short, she is about to find out that Johnny has very different ideas.

And we're a go for Day 5 of Cageblade week 2025!

Title: The Road is Long.

Rating: Teen

Summery:

It's Sonya's first day in LA and it's just her luck that she's gotten herself hopelessly lost.

Enter Janet Cage. Flirty, gorgeous and not at all helpful.

Suddenly Sonya's day is looking up.

My fic for Day 4 of Cageblade 2025 just went up!

Title: Chasing the Sun

Rating: G

Summery:

After a move back to base, Sonya sits down to get rid of boxes and winds up unpacking more then just personal possessions.

Next up we have a fic i'm super excited for!

Title: You Can't Kill The Boogyman

Rating: M

Summary:

In the summer of 1984, the worst thing Sonya Blade thought she had to deal with was the shitstorm she'd made of her fledgling military career.

She is about to be proven very wrong.

Getting voluntold as a camp counselor as a punishment, will seem like a cake walk compared to surviving Camp Moose Knuckle.

A broken down campground, romantic entanglements and a bloody thirsty killer stalking the counselors. It's just a summer time tradition right?

1 of 2 fics going up for Cageblade Week 2025 Day 3!

Title: The Language of Flowers

Rating : G

Summery:

Johnny just wanted to make a grand romantic gesture.

Something to show Sonya that his feelings are genuine and he's not just trying to get her into bed.

Finding her flowers? Sounds like an awesome plan.

Finding a clone army of Mileenas? Not so much.

Summery:

The night before his fight with Goro, Johnny and Sonya realize all of the things they don't have in common and the most important thing that they do.

One of the Day 1 prompts for Cageblade Week 2025 was "Lyrics."

So, in the grand tradition of someone old enough to remember songfics, I made a play Cageblade playlist on Spotify.

It's a random collection of songs that make me think of Johnny and Sonya but I hope you enjoy!

Day 2 for CageBlade Week 2025! might as well jump is on AO3 now! rating: M (🌶️🌶️) wordcount: 5872 summary:

There are a lot of things struggling hockey hotshot Johnny Cage would prefer to do than show up to the team's Friends and Family freeskate night, but a desperate need for good PR gets him on the ice—where he watches his teammate Jackson Briggs drag a blonde out onto the ice. He—and his smart mouth—can't be blamed for what happens, can they?

Sonya Blade has any number of flaws, but one of them is that she can't say no to a challenge. Recovering from an injury, the one-time worlds champion figure skater would rather be anywhere than on the ice again, but she has to prove her friend wrong—and gets more than she bargained for, but strangely, just what she didn't know she needed.

-- otherwise known as "it's hockey/figure skater AU time"

Rating : G

Summery:

Everyone has a beginning, a first foot on the path to happiness.

With Johnny feeling down, Sonya sets out to remind him just how far he has come.

*whispers* hey. hey you guys. we're doing it again this year! @wandering-koyote did the art this year that we've tucked into the banner. This year, the 1995 movie is 30(!??!!) years old, so we've pulled some prompts from the classic. All the details + text version below the cut.

The Fourth(!?!?) Annual CageBlade Week!

Event Info

Dates: 16-22 June 2025 (Mon-Sun)

All forms of fanworks will be accepted - fanfic, fanart, gifset, playlist whatever it may be! 

If we somehow missed your post after the end of the event, let us know so we can reblog it! We might be a little slow on the day-to-day but we don’t want to miss anything. The only things we won’t be reblogging are NSFW with minors and explicit noncon. We will reblog late posts.

Make sure to tag your posts with #cagebladeweek (within the first 5 tags, thanks algorithm) and/or @ this blog so we can find and reblog everything.

Participate one day or every day - it doesn’t matter! If you post on an external site (AO3, FFN, DeviantArt) please at least drop a link here so we can reblog it and promote it. There will be an AO3 Collection started closer to the date.

Prompts:

Day 1: vintage / lyrics

Day 2: island / AU of choice

Day 3: rescue / horror

Day 4: $500 sunglasses / space

Day 5: dressing up / wrong turn

Day 6: hope / ruin

Day 7: Free Day!

You may interpret these prompts as strictly or as loosely as your heart desires. You can stick as close or as wide from the prompts as you want. Want to combine two? Go for it! Want to have some other characters cameo or tell a more ensemble tale? Sure - as long as it has Sonya and Johnny at the heart of it.

If you have any questions about prompts and submissions, send us an ask here! We look forward to seeing all the wonderful contributions!

FAQs:

1) Do I have to write in English?: No, you do not! This is a multi-language-friendly event. Post in your language of choice and users can machine translate if needed. If you choose to write in one language and later post translations to English, those translations can also be added to the AO3 collection.

2) Can I write an OT3 fic?: The mods support polyamorous shipping, however this week is for CageBlade specifically. We'd like that contributions focus on Sonya & Johnny's relationship.

3) Well, what if I write a breakup fic and have them hook up with other people? It's still CageBlade, right?: Not for this event. This week is a celebration of CageBlade and how awesome they are together. Want to give us some hurt/comfort, breakup & reconciliation, sure! Whump? Go wild! But we want to see them coming together and realizing how great they are as a couple.

4) What if I don’t like any of the prompts and have ideas of my own?: Then go ahead and write them! Want to explore their friendship before they hooked up? Want to write all AUs? Do you have some art ideas you’re just itching for an excuse to post and draw? The world is your oyster!
