Bait Lists

Bait Lists

Like the bait on a fishing hook, if you want to entice a writer, you should know what they are weak for. We are not empaths but fortunately, we all love exposing ourselves.

Wanting to prompt? Have a look here for some inspiration. Baiting makes writers excited about your prompt. Sprinkle some fake-dating or enemies-to-lovers and you'll make us weak at the knees

Content creators, open your heart and comment below about the ideas you want to write or draw.

Need ideas?

  • Genres - magical realism? sports anime? mafia?
  • Dynamics - casual intimacy? unrequited love? mentorship?
  • People - yes I mean biases, also calling out everyone who listened to Red (Taylor's Version)
  • Narrative Tropes - chase scene? heist? man vs nature (Woozi vs Hoshi)
  • Other media - bleak boyband bingo, squid game, whatever is popular with the youth
  • (Check out the 2021 bait list and bingo post).

isi bait

[personal profile] pixiepower 2021-12-03 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
pairings/biases/etc:
♡ minghao n joshua!!!!
♡ wonwoo and vernon and woozi secondarily
♡ also boogyu. feels essential 2 say
♡ rarepairs, crossovers (with nct/ptg/skz) and ot3s!! bonus if you would be originating an ao3 tag
♡ FRIENDS WITH GIRLS please. let them know women

tropes, themes, and motifs (half of this was wren dragging me but it’s accurate so here goes):
♡ colors, textures, prose — art as medium and as subject
♡ “tenderness, not just in atmosphere but in how people regard each other and themselves”
♡ fairy tales, retold or rewritten
♡ musical theatre — plot, structure, “i want” in a song, moments unspooled over minutes
♡ it’s about the hands
♡ rivalry — especially one-sided
♡ catboys but not hybrids.
♡ coldplay lyrics

i can be found at pixiepower (ao3), pixiepowerao3 (writing twitter) and eightpaint (personal twitter)!
