Re: Prompting or Filling

[(Anonymous)]

I prompt on occasion when I have an idea I like that I don't plan to write, but I've been burned by kink memes in the past with people using prompts I've posted to soapbox or character/pairing bash, so I tend to avoid it for those reasons.

I like kink memes because I can fill whatever sparks my interest. It's one of the only times I'll write for a prompt. I tend to stay away from fic exchanges or letting people send me prompts on tumblr because, like I said above, I've been burned by only identity headcanons, soapboxing, or character/pairing bashing. While I think people should be able to have those headcanons (not the character/pairing bashing, though), I don't really like when I'm forced or guilted into writing them. They're such subjective things, after all, and I want to be able to choose to write something of that nature just as someone wants to choose to read those types of fics instead of having it forced upon them as a fill to their prompt.

Also, I know there are people who post prompts and don't write, so I want to do my part by fillings prompts to keep the meme alive and active. Not to mention, it's a great way for me to explore new characters or pairings or kink anonymously. If I like it, I can crosspost it. If I don't like the finished project, it can just live forever in anonymity on the kink meme.
