Prompt Thursday!

[needs_more_green]

Hey there, all!

Welcome to "I Want To See That" Thursday.

The theme of the day is prompts. Anything from requests for fics you've only just realised you really, really need (but have absolutely no time at all to sit down and write) to ideas you think would be good for crossovers, collaborations, vids, art, gif/photosets, gifs of someone doing that Thing that they do--anything at all. With any luck, someone will pick it up!

Blaine-as-Brad!AU

[jakia]

I don't even have a teacher-kink (that I know of anyway) but for some reason I keep picturing this AU where Brad retires and Blaine (age 22) is hired to take his place in season three as the music direction/handy piano player in the background.

Only he's openly gay and friendly and everyone loves him and he wants to bring MORE ART into McKinley. And he talks to Kurt (who is a senior) about starting a PFLAG group at McKinley with Blaine as the sponsor. Sue hates him because he wants the arts to matter, and Will hates him because he does Will's job better than Will. Emma has a crush on him and Beiste thinks he is a puppy.

And he sits in on Glee club practices as the piano player and watches with HORROR at everything Will Schuester does, and tries to report him and Sue to Figgins but Figgins really doesn't care and Blaine is horrified.

Then he lays the verbal smack down on Schue about treating his band kids as human beings rather than living instruments, and maybe if they treated the band as people with names and everything the Glee Club would have more members.

And then Kurt joins the jazz band so he has an excuse to spend more time with his crush Mr. Anderson. Okay you caught me this whole prompt is basically an excuse to have Kurt in the jazz band SUE ME.

Ooooh. I don't think I have the writing-fu for this, but SECONDED.

The Glee Family Robinson

Okay, I am not writing this. I'm not. I just...need to see it anyway.

So we've had eight million discussions about what they're doing for Season 4, but this idea actually sprang up from what I think was a kids' cartoon show's parody of Lost. New Directions. Desert island. Go.

Say they're flying to Nationals in Hawaii (in a private plane, of course, Sugar Motta never flies commercial) and they crash just off the coast of some tiny undiscovered south Pacific island that's conveniently lacking in volcanoes. All of the ND kids, possibly including Lauren if you like, possibly including Joe from God Squad, if you like, definitely including Will, possibly including Emma, if you like (and you're feeling really mean, poor Emma).

I want to see Artie take over and the kids shut down Will once and for all, and Will cope with being part of a society where someone else is in charge. I want to see ingenuity and survival skills and Puck and Sam spear-fishing all but naked in the little bay over on the lee side of the island. I want to see pairings scramble around before things start to settle out, various couples curling up together on their makeshift bed mats by the campfire, platonically as you get because someone else is sleeping five feet away but everyone in this little society of theirs recognizes them as effectively married.

Obviously there's Kurt working out how you do new clothing, and using every salvageable part of the downed plane. Who accidentally gets pregnant first now that there's no birth control? How do they deal with storm season? What spectacular, Swiss Family Robinson-esque architecture do they somehow assemble without any hammer or nails? Who's the first person to call Finn 'Gilligan', and who figures out how to make coconut phones and indoor plumbing entirely out of bamboo? Who's the first person to get married when they finally take a vote, secede from the US, and write their own constitution on tree bark?

(Bonus: when they finally get rescued, oh, four years later, how do they reintegrate back into society?)

reality tv

Both of those ideas sound like a lot of fun!

The LOST concept also reminded me that I'd love to see the characters on a reality tv program, like Survivor or teaming up on the Amazing Race (I think that Brittany and Santana would be awesome at that, for some reason). Or Sugar Motta on The Bachelorette.

I have too many things to track, so I can't track all the past prompt posts, so if someone fills a prompt on this post, please let me know! (Either by replying to this comment or PMing me.) That way I can add it to the big list of filled prompts. Thanks! :)
