Challenge Post

I'm in a bit of a writing rut after AIL 9, and with the travel I have planned for the next two weeks, I suspect I won't get much of 10 written before HBP. So...

I'm gakking an idea from other journals (most recently krislaughs) and saying challenge me. Toss me a prompt. Anything. In the AIL universe (as long as it's not really heavy angst), out of it, whatever... just with a few simple rules:

1.) The fic has to stay under 8,000 words. This is more for me, because we all know how wordy I get. (The average chapter of AIL is about 17,000-20,000 words.)

2.) No incest. In any way, shape, or form.

3.) I'm not much on writing hard NC-17, glitter, or AUs that don't take place in the wizarding world. I'm also more on "canon" pairings- or at least pairings that could concievably happen in canon. I will NOT write NC-17 or even R for the kids' generation.

Other than that... help a writer out. And since I tend to like people to illustrate my fics, if you've got an illustration you'd like a fic for, I'm all about that.

And gen? I LOVE gen. So all you people on this flist who don't think there's enough gen out here, here's your chance. I will very, VERY happily write gen!

ETA: As of 10:15 on Monday night, the prompts are (the list is more for my benefit than anyone else's!):

Young Caradoc and Moody (from the AIL universe)- aome
Regulus befriending one of his brother's friends, and one or both changing a bit- gehayi
Snape as a young DE/knowing Remus is spying for Dumbledore (probably AIL universe)- maglors_finch
Remus seeing Harry's Patronus- jazzypom
Sirius in dog form meeting Aunt Marge (hehehe)- yma2

All gen! Whoohoo!

So you *do* like a qualified Snupin... Actually, I share most of your preferences here, with the possible exception of the emptiness (which I can't reconcile with Snape's passionate character - and I don't mean passionate in a positive sense). But yes, a good Snupin is post OotP, and the words "I love you" are anathema.
