2025 Bait List

Bait Lists

A bait list is a list of things someone is interested in creating. It is a cheat sheet to a writer's Achilles' heel, the window to their soul.

Wanting to prompt? Have a look here for some inspiration. Baiting makes writers excited about your prompt and increases the chances of it being filled.

Content creators, confess your brainrot habits and the media that has you in its clutches.

Need ideas?

  • Genres - high school meet cute? supernatural investigators? pacific rim?
  • Dynamics - casual intimacy? enemies to lovers? love triangles
  • Media - Han Kang, Formula 1, Sabrina Carpenter lyrics, Arcane Season 2
  • (Check out the 2023 bait list and the 2021 bingo post).

hi i'm new here :^)

people & ships:
- joshua hong. joshua hong !!! joshua hong...
- yoon jeonghan
- jihan
- any configuration of 95z + mingyu
- bsk treading the platonic/romantic line with shua, jeonghan, or mingyu

tropes & themes:
- enemies to lovers. exes to lovers. loving someone despite trying really hard not to, for whatever reason. realizing, far too late, that the weird thing beating its way out of your chest was love all along.
- the mortifying ordeal of experiencing an emotion
- identity & questions of the self. where is the line between performance and reality? what does it mean to be known by another when i don't know myself? do i recognize who's in the mirror when i take off this mask?
- third party perspectives on a relationship, especially when that relationship features an incomprehensible dynamic that works despite all evidence to the contrary

inspo:
- poetry, poetry, poetry (ada limon, marie howe, mary oliver, ellen bass, wendy cope, etc)
- quotes from austen works/anne of green gables/old greek plays
- song lyrics from any of hozier's work
