Day 8 Theme - Success
Feb. 8th, 2025 07:22 am![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png){kind=small}
cmk418Success is defined as the attainment of one's goals. Pretty easy, until you realize that everyone's goals are different.
Here are some ideas to get you started- What does success look like for your character? Is it making a million dollars? Achieving a certain position on the corporate ladder? Winning a court case? Slaying a dragon? Getting married and having kids? Or just being able to celebrate another birthday? How does she celebrate her successes or does she even take time to recognize them before moving on to the next goal? Who or what may be in the way of her succeeding?
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.

sisterdiviniumTitle: Recompense
Prompt: Success
Fandom: Warrior Nun
Pairings/Characters: Jillian Salvius/Mother Superion, Ava Silva
Rating: T
Length: 1750 words
Summary: With the holy war won, Ava and Suzanne find that triumph also brings grief... Though there might yet be rewards for those who look.
Notes: Post-canon, contains a mention of character death. I thought it would be interesting to explore what Simon Barry said of Ava being paralysed again by the end of it all.

cmk418Title: Championship Run
Fandom: All for the Game
Female Character: Danielle "Dan" Wilds (with cameos by Renee Walker and Allison Reynolds)
Rating: Teen
Word Count: 224
Summary: Dan's thoughts as the Foxes played for the championship
A/N: All for the Game is a series of books by Nora Sakavic. Most of the characters mentioned in the books are male with the three women here and two adults (team doctor & psychiatrist) representing the bulk of the women. While being very well-written, these books are also intense and very trigger-heavy so just beware going in. The following fic is safe to read for everyone though.

Day 8 - Success - Star Wars - FanVid Rec
Feb. 8th, 2025 08:33 pmineffablecabbageTitle/Link: [VID] All I Know So Far
Creator: colls
Prompt: Day 8: Success
Fandom: Star Wars
Fandom: Star Wars
Characters: Ahsoka Tano (With guest stars Sabine Wren and Anakin Skywalker)
Rating/Warnings: Gen, None
Summary: A vid about Ahsoka's journey.
Reccer's Notes: What is success when you're living through the fall of the Republic, the great Jedi Purge and the rise of the Empire? For Ahsoka, it means continuing to uphold all of the ideas that she believed in, working alongside the few she cared about who were able to survive, and refusing to fall to the Dark Side, even when it would be easier not to. Both the Vid and the song really capture that spirit.
