About
"the poem begins not where the knife enters, but where the blade twists"
"beauty is terror"
"you'll just have to taste me, when he's kissing you"
Calling all readers, lovers of poetry and music, screen and stage. Quote collecters and lyric hoarders, unleash your archive. For this round, every prompt must contain a quote - you can combine them, add commentary, link to articles, do whatever. Steal from a literary classic, or copy a hit tweet.
🛑 HOLD UP
If this is your first time on 17hols please check out our About Page which has helpful information about dreamwidth and HTML. We are a prompting fest where all the action happens in the comment section.
Rules
- Sign up is not required.
- Fills have a minimum of 400 words for prose, haiku-length for poetry (3 lines), and 400px by 400px for art (memes are also art). Other mediums are fine too!
- There is no maximum cap.
- Tag and provide content warnings at your discretion, but a good guide are the Ao3 four (Graphic Depictions of Violence, Major Character Death, Rape/Non-Con, Underage) and this list of common CWs (cr: SportsFest).
- NSFW/Explicit content should be tagged
- NSFW art should not be visible, please provide a link and a warning. You may crop the artwork and embed a SFW preview.

(To explain, the HTML resizes your picture to 400x400px so that it fits on most screens. Users can view the full size if they click on it. You can also add a link to your work on twitter so that others can share it, or to any other website you want)
On dreamwidth, you can't edit a comment once someone has replied to it.

Re: [FILL] telltale
and
The gyuhan thesis... I fear no one will ever get it like you do. And the seamless blend of metaphor and meaning in this can i get a YEAH
Oh my... you're really not pulling punches with this one huh. Also the way you've chosen to write the dialogue without quotation marks is such a cool choice, adds an uneasy hush to the story that viscerally recreates the way Jeonghan experiences the world. Especially in the bathtub scene; Mingyu is screaming but it almost feels like we can't hear him.
This is such a bleak, haunting portrait of a person in deep pain. What does love even mean to someone who can't feel anything? How do you tell the person that loves you and have it do anything but hurt them? Can you? Should you try to? I have no answers, just awe for your skill and insight
Thank you so much for taking my bait and for your work as always <3 <3 <3
