The Six Character Prompt Plea

[lar_laughs]

It's time to start working on some original stories and I still can't bear looking at Broken Wolf yet so I think I'm going to work on some Keladra. I just don't know where to start and none of the ideas I've had are jumping up and saying "Write me! Write me!"

So I need your help, lovely FList.

I have six characters in my mind. 4 females and 2 males. That's what I know about them. Four are female and two are male. Yep, look at that info just FLOWING from my brain. We shall call them Female 1 (F1), Female 2 (F2), Female 3 (F3), Female 4 (F4), Male 1 (M1) and Male 2 (M2).

With this information, would your form a sentence for me?

1. Pick one or two of the characters (I'm trying to write a short story and don't want to clutter it up with more unless it's absolutely necessary and the Muse demands it)

2. Add a verb like meet or play. You know... something fun to do.

3. Then add a location. This can be generalized or specific. I'll make it work.

4. Feel free to add whatever else you need to so that it's a nifty sentence. If you think it needs more than one sentence to do your prompt justice, add another sentence.

Thank you for participating. All these stories will be public and up at this journal.

Cool idea :)

Female one and Male two discuss their beliefs about fate/destiny at a waterfall/ocean/other body of water.

Is that right? :)

Perfect!

Heth and Xie... just so I remember which order I put them in. *grins*

F3 and F4 meet each other at boarding school and realize they've met before.

Can you do something with that? *shy*

Love it! Yes! I'm doing this to find out some of the background on these characters so this will work on two levels!!!

Finnion and Sentha... so I remember what order I put them in.

ohh, good luck with original fiction...

what about male one stargazing and thinking of his first love? can be bittersweet

Thanks! It's a shared world that my friend came up with last year and I've been saying for a whole year now that I was going to write something in it and I haven't so now I have to stick by my promise! Just need some warm up first since I don't have any decent ideas.

And thank you for the prompt ... that would be Maxton, just so I remember who is who.

okay, so it looks like only Female 2 is left, hmmm? if you're still looking for something that is.

Female 2 often wonders about her parents.

(I had a few other sentences, but kept deleting them for fear that they were way too specific. is this what you're looking for?)

You can reuse the others, if you'd like. I'm looking for a lot of prompts because I seem incapable of that for this group on my own! I also have new characters that I've come up with the last few days if you want to use them. *grins*
