Spooky/Autumn Prompts

Send a character and a number for a ficlet!

"It was a dark and stormy night." "It's literally 76 and sunny outside."

"So, what brings you to my dark and creepy neck of the woods?"

"I hate fog."

"Apple bobbing, apple picking, caramel apples, apple cider, apple pie - apple is clearly the best autumn flavor." "You're just saying that because I'm drinking a pumpkin spice latte and I didn't get you one."

"There's no such thing as ghosts."

"I'm not doing matching costumes."

"I'm less scared of the monsters and more scared that there's a killer on the loose." "That's just a rumor, relax."

"Trick or treat!"

"I love sweater weather!"

"These leaves are perfect for crunching!"

"I wish these teeth were real."

"Didn't you read Goosebumps as a kid?"

"Keep carving your pumpkin like that and there won't be any pumpkin left!"

"I hate horror movies, can't we watch something else?"

"I can't believe you forgot to buy candy!"

"Yeah, that spray hair color isn't coming out anytime soon."

"Was that a scream?"

"Candy Corn?"

"That pumpkin is bigger than me!"

"This costume is perfect!"

Spooked Stranger

Pairing: Spencer Reid x Male reader

Description: Y/n try’s to scare his friend coming around a corner- but scares spencer instead.

Warnings: Fluff, Possible swearing

Flufftober Day 11: Meet cute

A/N: Im obsessed with this prompt- i got it from CM meet cute challenge- and the prompt is: Character tries to scare their friend, but ends up spooking a complete stranger from the autumn section (sry its kinda short!)

It was a chilly October evening- and y/n had decided to stuff himself under a table in order to scare f/n. Until now Y/n had no idea how small the space under the small side table was until now- but he kept reminding himself it was worth it. He was gonna scare f/n so bad. So there he remained- shivering slightly under the table- hidden to the view of his friends. 

Spencer had to practically drag Derek, penelope, and Emily to Witches Woods, a local DC halloween faire (for those from new england/MA its like scream fest at canoby lake). After doing the haunted hayride they split off to get drinks and food from the concession stands, leaving spencer to fend for himself. He decides to make his way towards Castle Morbid- a winding path through a castle of medieval cannibals offering for you to join their feast of human flesh. but little did he know that around the corner was a stranger waiting for his friend- who was actually ahead of him. A gust of wind chilled his body and he pulled the scarf tighter around his neck- hoping for a bit of extra warmth in the autumn weather. 

Spencer approached the next corner cautiously- having been gotten bad by a scare actor a couple turns ago. HE was determined to not be scared by whoever or whatever cane around the corner- that was until a man dressed in a knitted sweater and slacks jumped out at him yelling. Spencer shrieked and jumped back pulling his arms around himself. He was frozen in place- a terrified look on his face, and a slightly bent posture. That’s when spencer got a moment to finally take in the stranger, he had h/c hair and was dressed in a knitted sweater covered in black cats (definitely not based off a sweater a wore recently to a halloween faire 🤭) and black slacks. The mystery man was laughing his ass off and when he finally opened his eyes and looked at spencer he froze. 

“your not f/n…” 

spencer chuckled lightly, not at all mad at the stranger, and responded

“N-no im not, sorry..”

The man looked up and exclaimed;

“no no! dont be sorry, im the one who scared the shit of a handsome stranger..”

He spoke with a smirk, winking at spencer. The flirtation left spencers cheeks warm, but luckily in the darkness it was hard to tell. when spencer re organized himself he spoke again, saying;

“oh- no, no dont worry about it- i enjoyed it..” 

he spoke with a sheepish smile and a shy voice- contrasting with the confident and loud demeanor of the stranger infront of him- who continued to flirt with the flustered man. 

“You know- if you enjoyed that much then may be if you give me your number i can scare you again sometimes.”

spencer thanked god for the darkness or else this mystery man would see the raging blush coating his cheeks. 

“well, ill- ill give you my number if you give me your name” spencer was still shy but his voiced had gained some confidence, urging the stranger to respond

“Of course handsome stranger- my names Y/n L/n. And as much as im happy calling you handsome i think you’d rather i call you your name.” 

again spencer blushed and looked down and responded 

“my names spencer, its good to meet you..” 

“pleasure to meet you too”

Even in the dark spencer could see y/ns smirk and started pulling out his phone in order to give him his number.

“straight to business- i like it..” 

Who spencer now knew as Y/n spoke in a slightly deeper sultry tone, seducing spencer. He stuttered his way through his phone number and after y/n pulled him closer by the tie stating “you’re cute when you’re flustered..” with a wink. Y/n was about to pull him closer for a kiss on on the cheek when from across the maze someone shouted 

“Y/N!” 

his head spun towards the shout before turning back to spencer and saying

 “well handsome- i gotta go, but ill call you- kay?” spencer could only nod- words impossible in his flustered state. And as spencer watched as the man jog away towards the source of the noise- he was left standing there speechless at the encounter.

And finally as he rounded the corner and went out of spencers sight he mumbled to himself “handsome..”

The End

Autumn Symbolism OC Questions.

A little list of OC questions based on Autumn Symbolism in North West European Heraldry. Obviously many of these things have different symbolic meanings in different cultures and have had different associations at different points in history - this list is intended more for diversion than serious historical analysis.

Apples - Liberality, Felicity, Peace and Salvation.

What is your OC's happiest memory? Does remembering it still make them smile? Or is there a wistful melancholy when they recall it?

Is your OC open to new ideas and ways of doing things? Or do they treat such suggestions with great suspicion and prefer to stick to tried and tested approaches and values?

Does your OC find it easy to express themselves in words? Or do they sometimes struggle to find the appropriate word or phrase? Are they eloquent in one language, but less practiced in another?

Is your OC happiest when things are peaceful and harmonious? Or do they secretly (or not so secretly) relish more drama or excitement?

How far would your OC go to protect others from harm? Have they ever accepted injury or suffering in order to keep others safe? Would they do so again?

Acorns - Independence and Ambition.

Does your OC find it easy to make their own decisions and come up with their own plans? Or would they prefer to ask for advice or guidance from others? Perhaps they might even wish that another could take major decisions out of their hands sometimes?

How much freedom would your OC willingly give up for the sake of a relationship or family commitment? How much would they give up grudgingly?

What is your OC's greatest aspiration? Is there an ultimate outcome towards which they are constantly striving? Is this something they keep secret from those around them?

Does your OC believe power is best held by those with the will to seize it? Or are they deeply suspicious of those with grand ambitions to hold authority over others?

Does your OC enjoy teaching others and nurturing their skills to the point they are masters in their own right? Or would they prefer to hoard certain strategies or wisdom in order to guarantee their own pre-eminence?

Squirrels - Thrift, Caution and Conception.

Does your OC carefully consider all possible outcomes before embarking upon a course of action? Or are they more inclined to launch themselves head-first into whatever they decide is the best plan at the time?

Is your OC frugal with their money? Carefully budgeting and saving against unexpected eventualities? Or are they more likely to spend money when they have it and not worry about it until it runs out?

Is your OC someone to whom others come for advice or help with planning? Or would their companions or associates laugh at such a notion?

What does your OC most fear happening should their plans go awry or their intended aim be thwarted? Humiliation? Loss of status? Or something more dangerous still?

What is something that your OC would never spend money on for themselves, but would be delighted to receive as a gift from another?

Oak Leaves - Faith and Endurance.

Does your OC adhere to any particular religious faith? To what degree do they follow the tenets of that faith? Are they a believer in name only? Or are they zealous in their convictions?

Has your OC ever had their beliefs significantly challenged? Have they perhaps seen things that made them doubt their faith? Or encountered opposing arguments they found it hard to refute?

How does your OC cope with hardship? Are they stoic and uncomplaining? Or do they whine and grumble? Is their response to hardship an accurate indication of their actual character or degree of resilience?

Do others have faith in your OC? Is this due to their past accomplishments? Or are they just exceptionally charismatic and easily able to inspire belief in others?

What has been the most challenging obstacle or hazard your OC has needed to overcome? How did they manage this? Was it through grit and determination? Guile and cunning? Or simply dumb luck?

Hedgehogs - Thoughtfulness and Provision.

Is your OC prone to introspection and reflection? Or do they not have much of an inner life in that regard? Do they ever find themselves ruminating upon things they would sooner forget? Or do others despair of them ever learning from their mistakes?

Does your OC like to hoard items and treasures? Or do they prefer to have few possessions? How do they feel about those with a different approach to such things?

How good is your OC at remembering small details about other people, such as their favourite foods or their date of birth? Do they find it easier to remember details about people they find attractive or potentially useful?

Does your OC always ensure they have sufficient material supplies or food stores to last through lean or difficult times? Or are they more inclined to rely (or assume they can rely) upon the generosity of others should they run low on resources?

What gift or reward is your OC most proud of having bestowed upon another person? What makes them proud about it? The expense or rarity? The time or effort expended in obtaining it? Or how clever or insightful they were in deciding upon it?

Wheat Sheaves - Plenty and Commendable Hospitality.

Is your OC prone to excessive consumption? If so, then are they eager for food in general? Or are there specific treats upon which they are inclined to gorge themselves? Or are they more focused upon the consumption of drink, illicit substances or engagement in darker vices still?

Does your OC enjoy playing the perfect host or hostess? Are they skilled at courtesy and making guests feel welcome? Or do they suffer others in their personal space most unwillingly?

If your OC could ensure a limitless supply of one particular thing then what would that be? An endless fountain of wine? A bottomless sack of food to distribute amongst the masses? An infinite library of every book ever written? Or perhaps something even more esoteric?

What makes your OC feel most welcome when visiting somewhere for the first time? Do they have specific cultural beliefs about how guests should be treated? Have they ever travelled somewhere with different social practices? How did they respond to this?

How does your OC feel about striking disparities in wealth or access to essential resources? Do they feel such things should be distributed more (or even totally) equitably? Or are they disinclined to interfere with the current ordering of society? Do they believe in paternalism and charity as an effectives mean of sharing the wealth of the rich with those less fortunate? Or are they cynical about this approach?

[thepromptswhisperer]

Meet Cutes/Uglies: Fall/Winter

A stands in a queue when they notice a leaf stuck in the hair/on the clothes of the person in front of them. They offer to remove it for them.

Strangers A and B sit next to each other at the cinema. They bond over every jump scare and their self-loathing for letting their respective friends talk them into watching a horror movie.

A (accidentally) stumbles into the snowman B is building.

A slips on the ice-covered pavement/the pavement that is littered with wet fallen leaves and crashes into B.

A and B walk through a corn maze, trying to find their way out. Each time they pass the other, they look more panicked and lost. Maybe they could team up to find the exit?

A is in the middle of a snowball fight with friends/etc. when their snowball accidentally hits stranger B.

Strangers A and B are at the ice skating rink, holding onto the railing. Neither of them knows how to skate (– but each of them thinks the other’s attempts are endearing and inspiring (and just a little amusing)).

When the rain intensifies, A seeks shelter and ends up standing next to B (in a house entrance/etc.).

Strangers A and B both accompany their respective child/sibling/etc. and their friend group as they go trick-or-treating.

Strangers A and B are both obsessed with the special seasonal drink their (favorite) café offers. (When the café owner runs out of the ingredients needed/etc., they fight over who of them gets the last drink of the season.)

The company picks strangers A and B to decorate the office space for the Christmas season together. (A would have preferred doing it alone and has very specific ideas that do not align with those B has.)

Starbound Prompts, 2024!

Howdy, Starbounders!

Ask and ye shall receive! Both Seasonal and Monthly prompts are back again this year.

Once again, to give y'all a head-start, I've collected the year's worth of prompts into one handy-dandy preview post so you can prepare for the challenges ahead

The tag for all prompts is: #sbprompts24.

Remember: all creations are welcome - art, graphics, writing, in-game builds, or whatever you creative people can come up with!

See below the cut for all the challenges in 2024 (it's long 😆).

I'm looking forward to seeing what everyone creates in the new year! Happy Starbounding! 🌠
