Welcome to the 2023 Three Sentence Ficathon!
As of February 12th, the 2023 3 Sentence Ficathon has concluded and POST 2 is now CLOSED to new prompts.

This post will remain open for new prompts until February 12th or we hit 4000 comments, at which point we'll open a new one to avoid captcha as long as possible. New fills and comments on fills will always be welcome.
As a reminder, Post #1 and Post #2 are still open to FILLS. Post 1 is located HERE.
How to Prompt
Prompts should be one prompt per comment, formatted in this way: fandom, character(s), prompt word/sentence
Example: Star Wars, Obi-Wan Kenobi, I don't like sand
Prompts may also be open ended, unspecific, or anthropomorphic, such as:
any, any, I don't like sand
or
Earth geography, sand, I don't like humans very much, either
Prompts for relationships are welcome; a / is used for romantic/sexual relationships and an & for platonic. A prompt that uses both means the relationship can be written as either romantic or platonic, such as:
Star Wars, Anakin/&Obi-Wan, I don't like sand
Prompts may be repeated if they are unfilled; there is no obligation to read through every prompt to make sure yours isn't a repeat. This year's 3SF will stay open for new prompts through Sunday, February 12th.
How to Fill
Respond to your chosen prompt with a short fic of three sentences containing the fandom & characters requested!
Prompts can be filled more than once, as many times as someone has a new idea for them.
Notes & Rules
No, fills do not need to be exactly three sentences! It's more of a guideline. Please abuse grammar and punctuation as much as desired.
3SF is a Choose Not to Warn space. Spoiler and content warnings are not required, though writers are free to add them if they please. If you see something you don't like, just scroll until you do!
A Dreamwidth account is not needed to participate. Anonymous prompts/fills are welcome, or you can use Open ID.
Cross-posting is encouraged; there is a 3SF Collection on AO3 if you'd like to post fills there as well.
Note that the comm is searchable! Tick the 'include comments' button when searching to easily find prompts for your chosen fandom/characters.
And most importantly, have fun! If you have questions, check the Sticky Info post and if they're not answered there, head to the Contact the Mods post.

Date: 2023-01-22 08:43 pm (UTC)Violet gathered herself, proud and angry, resentful that she must rely on another's whim to achieve her own ends, and underneath that bravado, fingers trembling with poorly concealed nerves: "I want money, and power, and a shield against the marriage my mother has arranged," she said, letting that truthful stew of emotion flavor her lie; "I see no reason why her promises should bind me when I never swore fealty to her, and I won't swear unconditional loyalty to you either, but I have some talents and some connections among the Lady's faction that I think you'd find useful."
"Presumptuous," the Indrilline girl said, still in that tone of bored amusement; "Tell me, Violet of no family and no name, what conditions would you presume to set upon your loyalty?" and Violet fought not to sway with the sudden rush of relief that she might yet play this game through to its bitter end.

"Me too," she says, voice muffled against his neck, and he feels her words settle like a million birds on the branches of his heart when he breathes again.

Date: 2023-01-17 11:21 pm (UTC)“Satine,” he murmurs, and reaches out, ready to tug her down with him into the sands, ready to swallow her giggles of protest with his mouth before they can be overheard, ready to return each and every one of her insults with the most barbed of compliments-
Only to have his hands meet the empty air of another Tatooine morning, his mouth filled with nothing but sand; nothing but ash and regret.

Mitsuru wants to kiss Koichi, tell him he missed him so much, but there is no time; instead, he grabs Koichi by his arm and pulls him off the road with him, watching as the truck speeds by.

"Did he...steal you?" She asked, cradling the baby in her arms, rocking her gently in an attempt to ease the crying, "Shhh...it's all right." It wasn't the first time Rumple had done this, and Belle wondered if it would be the last.

As Ace stomped back to her room, the Doctor couldn't help feeling a pang of guilt. Of course they'd saved the day: they always did. But he didn't blame Ace if she didn't trust him anymore- it was getting harder to even trust himself anymore.

The stranger raises an eyebrow. "Yeah?" The tone is somewhere in the neighbourhood of polite, if barely.
"My apologies. I thought you -- for a moment, you reminded me of someone else," Ambrus says, smile fading. There's a strong resemblance, but perhaps he's mistaken. Somehow, a conversation still sparks, and something else too.

I am just using her.
Yan Gui thinks when she gives Madam Li a flower and the Madam blushes the prettiest shade of pink that Yan Gui's ever seen.
I was just using her. This meant nothing.
She thinks (lies) to herself as she runs from the Shu fortress under the cover of the night, while the young Madam is occupying general Li.
I will take you home.
Yan Gui’s own voice echoes in her head and an uncomfortable pang of doubt settles in her stomach.

She turns to look at him and tilts her chin upward defiantly. "Can’t I?"

Date: 2023-07-14 03:59 pm (UTC)Hear the factory’s taxing bells—
Timely bells!
What a world of mass production they indwell!
For the child and man alike
Without exception or respite,
They are rung by foremen’s hands
By their watches’ strict command,
Oh the quick insistent richness of the bells!

Date: 2023-01-16 09:46 pm (UTC)Narnia - Dreaming of Change
Date: 2023-01-21 08:58 am (UTC)When she was eight years old, Lucy had walked through a wardrobe and entered a world of magic, thrice; now she was eleven, which might normally be growing too old for fairy stories, but she had been living in a world of fairy stories for three years. And Lucy didn't really know for sure if she had to walk through a door or a tunnel for the world to change around her, or if it could just happen blowing on a dandelion, nor did she know all the possibilities of what that change could look like—a whole new world, like Narnia, or just a new visitor from a distant region she'd never been to. All she could do was make the most of the life she had now, at Cair Paravel, with all her friends and siblings, enjoying the breeze off the Eastern Ocean, dreaming of what could happen in the next three years.
I looked up the song while writing, but the quote independently was 95% of the inspiration for this. I hope it landed somewhere near the intended prompt!
