Oh yes,
squidgiepdx is a bit melancholy today, and it's bled into these prompts!
For those of you that have been around the community a while, you'll know that we just passed
clwilson2006's birthday recently - and that's always a somber day, at least for me. For those of you that didn't know Claire, she was the biggest cheerleader, but also enabler in all things Lorne/Parrish. She even got me to write them, and I've not been the same since.
So for this coming four week period, we're going to celebrate everything "spring" - from a spring in your step to the season that restarts life all around us - and make a nod to "loss". When you think about it, these two prompts are truly entwined; you cannot enjoy the fruits of Spring without acknowledging the loss of winter and the chilly nights that come with it.
You can interpret either of these prompts as you wish, with Rodney having a spring in his step to Radek having to requisition a new bed because his amorous activities caused a spring in his mattress to break. You can run away with loss - like how John felt when Rodney lost his memories to honoring those lost to the Wraith. However you choose to do it - write it down, spread some digital paint on the canvas, or even give us some meta about episodes like "Childhood's End" or "The Shrine." The options are limitless!
