hc_bingo February Amnesty Challenge

[thisbluespirit]

The sign-ups for this year's February Challenge for hc_bingo went up when I was feeling rotten and I nearly forgot to go back and sign up. I think last year I made all but the Feb one, so I hope to give it a go this time.

It's the hardest, though - you need to combine all four prompts from a "postage stamp" set into one fanwork.

group support	torture
betrayal	WILD CARD

This seems workable - although I am laughing a little at "group support" and "betrayal" going together. Not so supportive after all? And I need to decide what prompt should be for the Wild Card, but then I have to think of what I'm doing first. It could be Blake's 7. It does look like a very B7 combination of things, it's true.

It turning out that there's a traitor in your support group after you've been tortured does sound like just about the most B7ish thing ever. :)

I thought after I went to bed that this is practically Rumours of Death anyway - Avon is torrtured, has group support for his revenge plan and then turns out to have been betrayed by Anna all along. So it's definitely a B7 set!

Oh, that looks like a fun challenge, good luck! *tosses inspiration confetti*

(And I may or may not have a new bingo card too, all thanks to you... mwahaha ha!)

[thisbluespirit]

Thanks! And it does look like a do-able combination, so I just need to have a think what to do with it and hopefully this year I can do all of the Challenges.

And woo! New bingo card! Do you post them to share or not? (I always do and I like seeing other people's too, but I realise that other people may not on both counts.)

[theseatheseatheopensea]

:D Yay! Good luck with All Of The Challenges!

And my new bingo card is here! (I just set it to avoid showing up on reading lists and clogging up people's pages--but yes, I like the idea of sharing them, and seeing other people's too, and cheering them on.) And I may have had a bit too much fun with that bingo generator and the prompt lists you shared... I fed some of them to the generator and refreshed it, until I figured out how to stop the poetry prompts from getting cut in half, and I had something I thought could be doable. I still have my historium bingo, so this was definitely a dangerous idea--but it's rather exciting too, right? How can one possibly stay away from free prompts? :D

[thisbluespirit]

Aw, that's a gorgeous bingo card! I recognise one of the Flavours you must have used, too, as I worked my way through it back in my Runaway Tales days!

Besides, it's no problem - those shiny poetical prompts should double up nicely with the historium ones, i'm sure, and you can get two birds with one stone.

Oh, dear... you *are* evil! ;) There doesn't seem any way to escape it... I might just have to attempt some writing this weekend! (I hope yours is going well, both the writing and non-writing parts of it!)

[thisbluespirit]

Hee, well I can't be sorry for that!

[liadt]

I like the pretty background for bad things:D Yes, just another day in the B7 universe;p

[thisbluespirit]

Hehe, thank you!

[a_phoenixdragon]

I know you can make it work. And go you!! I have not been able to show my face there for a couple of years, as I was unable to finish my car, or even start it, the last time I signed up. Yeah. Not proud of that, so I avoid, avoid, avoid.

*HUGS*

[thisbluespirit]

Aw, you've been busy! It happens - if only it didn't. *hugs* And no need to worry should you ever wish to return - they have no penalties any more. It's all for fun. ♥

[a_phoenixdragon]

Bless you, dear one. Maybe I'll give it a go again one day...if Musie can ever get on track. Daydreaming about fic is fine. Getting it to metaphorical paper is better, lol. :D

[elen_nare]

You could always have a post-betrayal support group? (Which is a not un-apt description of the High Rollers Aerois party, lol - they get betrayed by an NPC quite early on and it was definitely a major group-bonding moment).

[thisbluespirit]

I could, although if it's B7, the traitor in the torture support group seems more likely!

[elen_nare]

Fair enough! There's definitely more drama (and hurt/comfort potential) in that option :D
