The Crackfic(and-art)ithon Rides Again!

[snick_backup]

For the second year, the Crackficathon is here to bring more silliness to the Buffyverse. Fanlore defines crack as "fiction with a fundamentally ludicrous premise, or otherwise including a plethora of unbelievable, incredible, or just plain silly elements - that is, implying the author/artist must have been on drugs to produce something so insane."

So what cracky thing have you been pining for? What about some werecreatures, or maybe that shiny new alpha/beta/omega trope, which was barely a twinkle in fandom's eye last year? Wingfic? Tentacles? The cowgirl!Buffy AU?

THINGS TO KNOW:
* Prompt fills can be one sentence, three sentences, a drabble, a ficlet, or any other length you feel moved to write. Fills can also be art! Usually there's tons of visual appeal in this prompts.

* If your fill is too long for one comment, you're welcome to post it to your own journal and just post a link here.

* Prompts can be filled multiple times by different people.

* Crack often tends towards the fluffy, light-hearted side of things, but it totally doesn't have to. Angst that puppy! Giggles and grief are both welcome here.

* I've turned comment notifications off on this entry, so if you have questions, please reply to the question thread below.

PROMPTING:
* Prompt format: [characters / ship] - [type of crack requested] - [OPTIONAL - additional prompt (word, phrase, song lyric, etc)]

FILLS:
* In the subject line of the comment of your fill, please put FILLED, and include [title, characters, type of crack, rating]. This makes it easier for me to make the masterlist. :)

MASTERLIST

If you have 'em, please leave them here! Especially please let me know if I've misspelled, misspoken, or left something out. :)

[snickfic]

Scoobies, animal transformation. All but one of the Scoobies turn into something fluffy, scaly, or otherwise meant to be a pet (though some might differ on that last point).

[snickfic]

Ensemble, OC's? A lot of women's Olympic records got broken in the next few Games after the Chosen spell. (Or really anything Buffyverse + Olympics would be cool!)

[snickfic]

Willow/Oz alpha/beta/omega. Once Oz got bitten by that werewolf, a lot more changed than just his nocturnal activities three nights a month. Can be Willow/omega!Oz or Willow/alpha!Oz or whatever you like.

[snickfic]

Dawn, animal transformation. Dragons are one of the oldest creatures in any dimension. And Dawn, as we know, is very, very old.

[beer-good-foamy.livejournal.com]

pre-soul!Spike "helps" Dawn with her homework. Turns out a 19th century education patched with occasional late night TV and 120 years of being evil isn't quite compatible with modern Californian lesson plans.

[beer-good-foamy.livejournal.com]

Alpha/Beta/Omega with knitting. Yes, knitting.

[ghostyouknow27.livejournal.com]

Dawn is the only one who seems to notice that Buffy's new boyfriend is a tentacle monster.

He might be evil; he might be a perfectly decent guy who happens to be a tentacle monster. Either way, it requires further investigation. (Bonus if the Scoobs love New Guy).

[beer-good-foamy.livejournal.com]

The Scoobies watch The Avengers. "Who the hell writes this stuff?"

[beer-good-foamy.livejournal.com]

Apparently there's something called a Vegas Crossover. Just saying.

[rranne.livejournal.com]

OH! Cool, Potential Athletes! I second this!

[3hours.livejournal.com]

Ensemble - Someone told her that her spells always go wrong, so Willow sets out to prove herself by creating a dozen or so different potions with harmless effects (eg turns your skin purple for five minutes). She brings them to Buffy's Older and Far Away birthday party as a fun partygame. Of course hardly any of the potions do what they're intended to...

Bonus points if Spuffy is somehow unintentionally outed due to potion.

BtVS/Scrubs Crossover - My Kid Sister- Dawn Dorian visits Sacred Heart Hospital...

Is it okay if more than one person fills a prompt? There's one I'm interested in, but I don't think I'll be able to get to it until the weekend at earliest, so just asking in case someone fills it first. Thanks!

[zanthinegirl.livejournal.com]

I'm going to be very very disappointed if someone doesn't write this one!

[3hours.livejournal.com]

Buffy & Spike bodyswap! Doesn't matter what does it - spell, demon goo, aliens, unexplained - I just want to read about all the crazy and/or naughty things that Spike would do to Buffy's body and poor Buffy trying to stop him (or maybe she's equally distracted) :D

[3hours.livejournal.com]

Buffy didn't die fully in The Gift, her mind was temporarily transplanted into another characters head (so they share a body) by the PTB to prevent her from going to Heaven. Now she's stuck there until Willow can come up with a spell to awaken the body and put her mind back into it again.

You choose where her mind goes!

[3hours.livejournal.com]

S6 Xander, after watching Spike and Anya get it on, timetravels back to early S2 with Willow's help in an attempt to convince the then-Scoobies to kill both Angel and Spike before all the bad stuff happens.

[3hours.livejournal.com]

AtS S5 Angel & Spike have to travel back in time instead of going to Italy for an all important mission. Specifically, they have to go to back to the school library in S2 during Angelus' terror reign in order to obtain some kind of plotty mcplot objective. They are faced with the Scoobies and have to try and explain that honestly, they're the good guys!

[ghostyouknow27.livejournal.com]

To trip up Buffy, the Geek Trio somehow imports the worldbuilding from another universe ... Twilight.

Now, Buffy's stakes are useless, Sunnydale is in total chaos, and Spike won't. stop. sparkling.

(I know Twilight was published in 2005, but they are using magic, and we can just pretend it's a parallel universe or something).

[ghostyouknow27.livejournal.com]

Cousin Jordy turns Oz into a werehippo. Were-iceage-ground-sloth also acceptable.

[pocochina.livejournal.com]

There was that one time when it really was fucking bunnies.

Re: Questions, comments, complaints...

[snickfic]

You bet! The more, the merrier. :)

[anviloverheaven.livejournal.com]

An author self-insertion goes horribly, horribly wrong.
