May. 2nd, 2026 09:20 pmTheme Prompt: #299 Uprising
Title: On Her Side.
Fandom: Dire Bound - Sable Sorensen
Rating/Warnings: (Language, violence, mature content, spoilers?) Threats of violence, minor violence.
Bonus: (Yes/No - did you meet the bonus goal for this challenge?) Yes
Word Count: 962
Summary: Meryn Cooper might very well have rather stood on a hornets nest instead of provoking Jonah, and thus earning the wrath of the Daemos pack. But their dangerous and not to mention handsome Alpha Stark might be on her side. It's hard to tell really. She hopes he is though as he might be the key to her surviving.

May. 1st, 2026 09:56 pmHappy May! This month we have a Greek myth themed fest, with three sets of prompts: gods and their domains, themes/motifs/ideas, and adaptations. (My keyboard is Struggling at present, so I apologize if there's any mistakes anywhere! ๐
) Remember the fills you create don't actually have to be in the Greek myth fandom or any adaptations you may get on your card. See you early next month for achievement banners. :) For reference, here's the bingo card generator and the allbingo AO3 collection.

Prompt Tables 02.26 - Rules and Points
May. 1st, 2026 10:48 amFor this challenge, we have three different prompt tables. Every table comes with 49 prompts. You will grab one of them when signing up.
General rules
Every Sunday, I will roll the die to appoint your weekly main prompt (based on your table) and one extra chance. Extra chances are not on the table, but there is a secret list I keep in the background. You can ignore them, or combine them with your main prompt or your neighbor prompts.
To participate, you must create something in response to the main prompt.
You can also use one/two neighbour prompts (all squares around your weekly main prompt) to create one work for each.
The extra chance comes with a request or offers a small benefit. The use is optional. Don't create an extra work for it, but combine it with one, two, or all of your weekly prompts.
Example Post here.
:::
Every prompt can be used only once during the challenge period!
You are not allowed to combine the main prompt with a neighbor prompt.
Both neighbor prompts can be combined into one work.
The extra chance can be combined with every work.
Fandom works, original works, and real-person works are allowed. Crossover works are fine.
Icons and graphic works should be edited visibly.
You can only play one table at a time. If you want to change your table, you can use some tokens from your Joker card.

You can use these tokens in different ways:
1. Missed week - use three tokens, and you can catch up with the week later.
2. Change your main prompt - use five tokens, and you can choose a different main prompt.
3. Change the card - use four tokens to choose a different card. Keep in mind, if you want to do more fills for your first card later, you will have to use four tokens again to go back!
