Aww lovely :)

Please can you explain what a prompt table is? I tend to not read the stories as much as stand alones or chaptered stories purely cause I don't really get it. Plase explain so I can read more! This story is amazing though, I just don't get the prompt tanle bit... and the numbers...

Thank you!

I'm not a great explainer of things, so if anyone else reads this, and I have it wrong, please correct me. But from what I've gathered, you basically get given 100 random words, and you have to write a story based on that word. For example, I choose blind, which is word number 7, and interpreted it to mean blind love. But I could have written a story about one of the characters being blind, or even about window blinds, it all depends on how you want to interpet the word.

Basically you have to write 100 stories/one shots, each one about a different word, it's like a writing challenge. ira_luxuria has created a chaptered story using a prompt table, so each chapter is based on a word from her table.

So, stories from a prompt table are basically one shots that have been inspired by one word. Does that make sense? Like I said, I'm not too good at explaining, so hopefully you understand better now =]

omg that sounds like fun! thats awesome! i may have to try it one day.
*sigh* oh sam, my child, your stories never cease to amaze me...they're so fluffy and awesome. I love that they're short...wen i write stories i tend to get so mixed up in the technicalities of it, and my one shots eventually evole into chaptered fics...i can't just write simple, beautiful pieces like this...they have to be a tangled web, like an explosion of ideas....they're so fucking confusing....but ur's are so special because they flow so easily and grab hold of you...they're perfect.
please keep these coming...i love them.

I totally understand, I find it so hard to keep them simple, but that's why it's a challenge for me.

Thanks for your comment, it made me smile, and feel like I'm doing what I wanted and getting that across. Don't think that makes much sense but basically, I'm happy now =]

Gah! So cute; loved it!! lol
I really love fluff, but I never seem to write it right, always shifts to something sad or something, but I love reading it.
Thanks for posting it =D hehe

Thanks!
Lol, I'm the other way around. Kind of. I don't mind fluff, but I prefer angst-y stories, usually with sad endings, but I figured I'd give it a go =]
There's plenty more to come in the future as well, all the stories posted on this account will be fluff =]
Thanks for reading it!

Sammeh I shall die from the cuteness. I can't believe you wrote it so fast lol. But as per usual it was amazing. Although I have a bone to pick.

“Your sight is forever gone, along with your heart. You’ll never look at another person again.”

That is so not true. People do look at other people they just don't usually touch xD

Next prompt please as soon as possible pleases and thank yous.

Lol, I'm really trying with this. I'm going to see about getting one out a day, but my internet has been fucked up all day, and I've only just managed to get onto lj, so I'm posting once I've replied to all comments. I don't understand though, cause I could get onto hotmail, and an old version of msn, but not lj, or any other website =/ ah well, hopefully it's fixed now.

Oh hush, you. It's fluff. Meant to be happy! Lol, I know it's true, but I don't think it would've had the same effect if Frank had said, "Your heart is forever gone, and your sight is slightly blurry, but you can still see. Just as long as you don't buy glasses, or pull a Mikey and get corrective surgery, you'll be fine."
It rather defeats the meaning of the prompt blind don't ya think?

=P

It's going up asap, so it'll be up when you read this reply.

well SMS aren't we the speedy one! I actually like this even more than the last one. You write good cute darling I am so proud of my little boy lmao
I do agree with Alice though
Your sight is forever gone, along with your heart. You’ll never look at another person again.” in real life? so not true I think you look and touch actually.

I'm trying to keep up with you, but as I've just ranted to Alice above, the internet is not on my side. I'll be catching up with your stuff tomorrow, and commenting it as well.

-blushes- you sound like a mother, but considering some stuff, I really hope you don't become a mother figure for me [no offence, I'm just thinking about the dream...]

And again, as I said to Alice, I totally agree. But it would fuck up the cuteness factor, and we can't be having that in fluff now, can we?

love you Ali baby
