cmk418Things seem to have gotten rather stagnant in our little OZ community. I think people will be all-in for Magi again this year, but everything else seems to have stalled. I have a tiny idea that's been flitting around the corners of my mind for ages- writing prompts based on a particular season, be they a character, a moment, or a quote.
If anyone wants to join in, just leave me a comment with a particular season, and if you want to write for a major character, a minor character, a moment, a quote or any combination of the above and I'll respond with something.
No minimum max word or image count. No deadlines. You can write for one prompt or for all the prompts. No pressure. This is just for fun.
Example: Season 1
Major Character: Ryan O'Reily
Minor Character: Huseni Mershah
Moment: Alvarez loses his baby
Quote: "God comes to visit me every one in a while, actually he comes more often than I'd like. But he's God. What can I say? That I'm busy, that I'm in the shower... He knows."

I'm a little confused... Did you also want a set of prompts in return?

ETA: Wow, I'd completely forgotten who Heseni Mershah was and had to look him up. I really need to do a rewatch.

Minor character: Bob Rebadow
Moment: Said kills Adebisi
Quote: My relationship with Beecher started with brutality and that's where it's ending. Love was the smallest part.
If you want to prompt me, I'd happily welcome it (maybe something from the hated season 5 just as a challenge)
I might give a shout out on Discord. I checked into DW recently and it looks like most of the Oz communities are pretty dead over there as well. It's really kind of sad how it's faded out.
Re Mershah, it's so weird because some years ago, I was watching this HBO series called "K Street" and the actor that played him came on the screen and I just had such a feeling of "I really don't like this guy, but I don't know why" and so I had to look him up and then the lightbulb went off.

Minor character: Dave Brass
Moment: Omar White sings in the variety show (I think I might be the only person in the history of this fandom who liked Omar)
Quote: "How is love wrong? In whatever form it takes, how is love wrong? Especially here in Oz, where there's so little of it."

Date: 2018-07-12 11:32 pm (UTC)DW + OZ never got off the ground, which I think is why ppl are reluctant to leave LJ (old comms, history, etc). I think you can import comms from LJ to DW wholesale now? But I think the window of opportunity on that closed a while ago :(
I was psyched to see your name on Discord tho! It's so frustrating not having a central fannish hub these days.

Date: 2018-07-14 05:43 am (UTC)Let me think it over-yes.
I didn't expect things to move this quickly or at all, but I was thrilled to see that you'd added me as a maintainer.
There will be a bit of a learning curve I'm sure, but I'm looking forward to getting started. Might just do a drabble one to start since we're mid-month and then try to get into a more natural rhythm of things as we go.
Many, many thanks to you and Ozsaur!

I think you can do what you want with it, honestly. Stacey & I both trust you & know that you'll do an ozsome job. Learning curve be damned!
Thank YOU!
