Competition: Slice of Life 1: Sun

Finished
Slice of Life 1: Sun

The simplest everyday moments can be some of the most impactful, the most enjoyable to tell, the little things we live for that truly show who our characters are and how they live their lives. All too often, it's these small slices of life that seem to pass us by, unfit for DRAMA so common to the Brotherhood or not quuuite what such and so RP is about.

These competitions will be designed for those moments, to let you tell those stories. Inspired by running Slice of Life RPs, these are for more solo vignettes, but may allow for cooperation one on one.

Entries will be graded using the Voice Fiction Rubric as a base with flexibility for lack of Character Sheets being necessary and big dramatic story arcs. Show me your characters living their lives.

Rules

  • Entries should be a minimum of 500 words
  • Any characters! No sheet, an old sheet, back in time, whatever. Snapshots are not required.
  • Entries MAY be CO-OP with one (1) other member. If co-op, make sure to indicate using a different color or breaks who wrote what, and please include your respective word counts. It just makes things easier.
  • Entries MUST relate to the given word prompt.

Prompt: Sun

Examples: sunbathing, a desert world trip and the sun being hot, a character enjoying the sunlight or hating its heat, a sunny disposition or smile, studying a solar system's sun, etc etc.
