Day 2 Theme - Barriers and Boundaries

[cmk418]

Barriers and boundaries- Both are constructed to keep something contained or keep something out.

Here are some ideas to get you started: What barriers have your character experienced on the way to their goal? What boundaries have they established to protect themselves? These can be also be literal geographic boundaries that might separate the accessible from the forbidden. What happens when they are broken- is there relief, confusion, disappointment, betrayal?

Just go wherever the Muse takes you. If this prompt doesn't speak to you, feel free to share something that does. You can post in a separate entry or as a comment to this post.

Want to get a jump start on tomorrow's theme? Check out the prompt list here. Please don't post until that day. If you are coming in later to the fest and want to post on the theme of a previous day, that's fine, just make sure to put which day that you are writing for in the subject line.

Day 1 - Fashion - Baby-sitter's Club - Rec

[ineffablecabbage]

Title: Kristy's First Kiss

Author: AlexElizabeth
Day/Prompt: Day 1/ Fashion

Fandom: The Baby-Sitter's Club (TV 2020) 

Character/Pairing: Stacey McGill/Kristy Thomas

Rating/Warning(s): Teen/No Warnings

Word Count: 3017

Summary: Kristy hasn't seen her friends since they all left for college. She didn't expect Stacey to be wearing shoes with such weird high heels. Or pants that were so shiny and tight. It's not like Kristy understands fashion anyway. But still...Stacey's hair is awfully pretty.

 

Reccer's Notes: This is written in a charming first  person's POV that definitely feels like it could be a BSC book from the perspective of a slightly older Kristy Thomas. There's some introspection on her sexuality, and some from Stacey, and both feel very accurate to the specific characters. It's a lovely slice of college life that starts with Kristy's horrified thoughts about Stacey's fashion sense.

I am such a fan of Everglow's (an all-women kpop group) outfits from their music video, First. Look at them! The boots and lace dresses, the orange and black aesthetic. I'm obsessed and I recommend their music, too. 😭

Rating/Warning(s): Teen/No Warnings

Word Count: 2349

Summary: Carol wakes in a hospital bed with no voice.

 

 

Reccer's Notes: The "barrier" in this case refers to the medical equipment that prevents Carol from talking to her friends and family. This is a really great piece of hurt/comfort gen between Carol & Wolf, whose friendship really defines what makes Brilliant Minds special to me.

Day 2: Barriers or Boundaries - The Apartment - Fic Rec

[lightbird]

Title/Link: Going Up
Creator: fearlessfan
Fandom: The Apartment (1960)
Characters: Fran Kubelik, C.C. 'Bud' Baxter
Rating: G

Summary: Fran gets her life together.

This is a terrific post-canon fic of the classic film The Apartment, written from Fran's point of view, and focused on Fran's growth and the development of her continuing relationship with C.C. Baxter after the events of canon. And in a way it does tie into today's theme of "barriers". If you're a fan of the movie, I highlight recommend this.
