I had chosen something else to share today but then I noticed that a lot of people had seen it already despite it fitting the "acting the fool" theme rather well. So it was that I decided to link this fic I wrote back in 2024 instead, which I believe also shows a more foolish side to a character -- Jillian and her big brain, specifically :)

Title: Miscalculations
Fandom: Warrior Nun
Pairing: Jillian Salvius/Mother Superion
Rating: G
Length: 2267 words
Notes: Post-s2. More on the funny side than not.
Summary: Out of all the reasons why Jillian Salvius would call on her, Mother Superion had not been expecting this…

Today's theme is Acting the Fool.

Here are some ideas to get you started: Sometimes even the smartest characters can make a really dumb mistake or behave like a complete idiot. Sometimes even the most serious characters can have a moment of playful silliness. Show us a moment that a character may not have been at her most sensible (whatever that may be for her).

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.

First character who came to my mind for "The Scholar" prompt was Sam Carter who's saved her team plenty of times with her scientific knowledge. She's cool and competent at what she does!

(bonus silly author's note)

In my head, there was backstory about how Cassie asked Sam for homework help because Janet was busy treating SG-3 who came back from offworld with a mysterious blue rash.

But obviously I could not fit that in the drabble 😂

Title + link: The Love Connection

Author: ForFucksSakeJim

Prompt: Day 9 - The Scholar

Fandom: Star Trek: Alternate Original Series

Characters/Pairing: T'Pring/Nyota Uhura

Length: 10,381

Rating: Teen

Warnings: None

Summary: While transporting a group of Vulcans to their new homeworld, Uhura meets T’Pring, a talented linguist whose gravitational pull she just can’t refuse.

Reccer's notes: This fic brings T'Pring and Nyota together due to their shared love of linguistics and T'Pring's appreciation for Nyota's perfect Vulcan pronunciation. They are both delightfully complex and fun characters here and the growth that develops from a love of language seemed to definitely fit the theme.

Here are some ideas to get you started: Also know as The Sage, she has studied and seems to have a wealth of knowledge at her disposal. She enjoys teaching others and gives good advice. What is she an expert in? How was her time at school? How do those around her react to her sharing her knowledge?

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.

Title + link: Althea (Consumed by love)

Author: Fanbase_Universes

Prompt: Day 7 - The Lover
Fandom: Anne of Green Gables - L.M. Montgomery

Characters/Pairing: Diana Barry/Anne Shirley

Length: 772 words

Rating: General Audiences

Warnings: None Apply

Summary: Anne Shirley, Diana thought, was the oddest girl she had ever met.

Reccer's notes: Anne Shirley's passion and longing for love and connection made her a prime candidate when I was looking for inspiration for the "The Lover" prompt. Here she is paired with Diana, complete with references to reciting Sappho. It's a short fic that packs in the same longing and sweet resolution that makes for the best of the L.M. Montgomery stories, except this time with a femslash twist.
