Christmas Fic Game, Yes?

I know, I know. I'm terribly uninclusive to fandom. But dude, I am in agreement with [livejournal.com profile] nandamai--we need SG-1 Christmas fic, stat!

I'm thinking that since we're already delving into the land of the cliche by doing Christmas fic, we ought to say that anything goes--terribly sappy romances, cute and fluffy gen pieces, angsty OT4, surreal Santa-stalking fic...yes?

So here's the game:

Comment here with an SG-1 Christmas (or other winter holiday) fic prompt. I'll hold this open until tomorrow, December 20, at about this same time. I'll post the full list, and then we can write them!

EDIT for lack of instruction on prompt submission: I don't really care how prompts are submitted, but [livejournal.com profile] surreallis reminded me that people like rules. ;-) So, for now, we go, "Pairing (if any), prompt, any other instructions." The prompt can be one word, a scenario, lyrics, a picture (oh, my poor html skillz, they suffer for you!), whatever.

All pairings, cliches, ratings allowed. Multiple prompt submissions and multiple stories based on the same prompt are allowed. Commentfic as well as longer fic is allowed--more details to follow in tomorrow's post!

I think it is simple and brilliant!

Tell me of any issues you see with the schedule and/or game, please.

Ahaha! I was just thinking of doing something like this, but I am lazy. Go you!

Q: I assumed these were meant to be commentfic, by analogy with the Pornucopia I think, but now I realize you didn't specify. ?

I'm thinking anything goes, but yes, commentfic is allowed, and probably most of what will be written. :-)

Someone needs to make a banner for you. Graphix people! Where are youuuuu??

Do you want a pairing along with a prompt or some other format?

Hmmm...I should probably specify. How about:

"Pairing (if any), prompt, other instructions"

Awesome idea! I just posted a link to this on my lj.

Jack/Daniel. There's an old saying that whoever you ring in the New Year with is who you'll spend the rest of the year with. It's New Year's Eve, and though they weren't expecting or intending to, somehow Jack and Daniel wind up spending it together.

Jack-and-Vala or Jack/Vala. Jack's looking after the SGC for Christmas so that Landry can spend time with his family. SG-1 is out of town -- except for Vala.

I was too late to leave a prompt. :-( But I see a prompt here that I don't see on the prompt list and I wanted to take a stab at it. It was Cam/Daniel, snowmobile. Did I just miss it?

Probably what happened is that I missed it. Go for it! (And I'll sneak yours on the list, too...)
