we're baaaaaaaaaaaaack..............

[lokishowflashfic]

time keeps on tickin'

Hey readers, thank you for your patience with the break in posts as various life events have kept me occupied. First, as always, let me direct you to the collection and its wild and wonderful variety of stories posted so far — we now have 25 works there from this challenge!

Even before my posting schedule here started falling off, the volume of new fic for the Loki series has naturally been waning as the long between-seasons hiatus rolls along. And so, to go along with that sort of hibernation cycle, I'm shifting the comm into more of a fallow mode: The collection is now open for fic responding to any of the existing prompts, and will remain so with no end date in sight.

When the fandom's activity level picks back up again — probably as we start getting new information about Season 2, although who knows what surprises could be lurking before then! — the weekly prompts will be back too. Until then, here once again is the list of all the 2021 prompts:

Prompt 1: Long Way Home

Prompt 2: POV

Prompt 3: Sweet

Prompt 4: Backwards

Prompt 5: Mystery

Prompt 6: Costume

Prompt 7: Crossover

Thank you to everyone who's been reading and writing, it's been so great to see this project grow!

Challenge #7: Crossover

Welcome back, constant readers! I hope you all had a delightful Halloween.

The second amnesty is now closed, and the next prompt will be open for two weeks, through the end of the day on Wednesday, November 17. The new prompt is:

CROSSOVER

As always, you can interpret this prompt any way you wish. You can cross over the Loki canon with any other fandom that strikes your fancy — or you can take "crossover" as your theme and write something inspired by crossings over, crossings between, borders, thresholds, and all sorts of Lokian themes like that. (Or both!)

This is an ongoing flashfic challenge for works of about 100 - 1,000 words in the Loki (TV 2021) fandom. There are no requirements in terms of characters or pairings, as long as it’s a fic for this show. You have the choice to post your fic in the AO3 collection and/or on tumblr or any other site; if you aren’t using the AO3 collection, you can send a submission with a link to your story so that others can find it here.

Have fun!

Hey Loki fans! Due to popular demand and definitely not because my life is at all a vortex of chaos IRL, the second Amnesty period is extended to Wednesday, October 27! Have fun, and remember to check out your fellow fans' works in the collection!

Prompt 1: Long Way Home

Prompt 2: POV

Prompt 4: Backwards

Prompt 5: Mystery

Prompt 6: Costume

You have from now until 8 PM Pacific Time on Wednesday, October 20 to post for Amnesty week.

Two more days for the Backwards challenge!

Happy Wednesday! If you’re still planning to get something in for this first amnesty week, you have until the end of today Pacific time. Meanwhile, the new prompt for this week is:

Backwards

As always, how you interpret the prompt is up to you. Turning back time? Reversal of roles? Or the seat on a train that nobody wants? You can post your works of about 100 - 1,000 words for this prompt from now until Wednesday, September 29 at 8 PM Pacific time.

(For those keeping track, since last week was an amnesty week, this is prompt #4.)

You have the choice to post your fic in the AO3 collection and/or on tumblr or any other site; if you aren’t using the AO3 collection, you can send a submission with a link to your story so that others can find it here.

Happy writing and reading!

Just a couple reminders: I’m not out here with a ruler or anything, but this is a flashfic challenge for works of up to about 1,000 words. The limitations are part of the fun of the challenge! If you do find yourself inspired with a story going a long way beyond that suggested limit, consider whether you still have an entry for the flashfic challenge collection on your hands. You can always post a longer piece on its own with a mention of the prompt that originally inspired you.

Same goes if you end up creating anything else inspired by the challenge that falls outside the parameters — say you have something after the deadline and you don't want to wait around for Amnesty, or if one of the prompts gives you an idea to write something in another fandom — that's cool, more fic in the world is always good! You can post that wherever and whenever and just add a note on your work mentioning that it began with one of these challenge prompts, although it's not like I'll know if you don't, it just seems like it would be good manners.

Thank you to everyone who's been writing and reading so far, and I'm excited to see what comes next!

And the first amnesty week is now closed — check out the amazing variety of works in the collection from the first month of this challenge! Hit random if you don't know where to start, since we have enough stories to do that now. :D
