reach exceeding one's grasp, indeed
My goal for the last round of Kink Bingo was a blackout (filling all 25 prompts on my square) in the Colditz fandom. This year, some evil part of my brain gave me the idea that perhaps I could try for a blackout in 25 different fandoms, all of them related in some way to the First or Second World War.
Some brainstorming has given me a preliminary list of 24 fandoms I could possibly write in (22 I'm reasonably happy about, 2 marginal), and I could easily think up some RPF for the remaining prompt if necessary. ETA: I'm up to 25 fandoms now, but suggestions are still welcome!
Biggles
The Cage
A Canterbury Tale
The Charioteer
Colditz
Danger: UXB
Endeavour (Inspector Thursday fought in the war)
Foyle's War
King Rat
Lawrence of Arabia
Life and Death of Colonel Blimp
Life Class
Lord Peter Wimsey
Manhunt
A Matter of Life and Death
Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence
Piece of Cake
Regeneration
Rivers of London
Secret Army
Sherlock Holmes ("His Last Bow" gives it a First World War connection and I would write something about that era)
Strange Meeting
Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy
Wings
Wooden Horse
Bloody Red Baron (the Kim Newman novel) (?)
'Allo 'Allo (?)
Am I omitting anything wonderful? Some omissions (e.g. The Great Escape and Bridge on the River Kwai) are deliberate because I have a lot of issues with the source text and KB isn't necessarily a great place for fix-it fic.
Since writing fast has never been one of my skills, and lately I haven't been writing at all, I wouldn't bet money on my chances of actually producing 25 stories. But since I badly want to start writing again, and this is a convenient challenge with prompts and everything, I guess I might as well try.
ETA: Still taking fandom suggestions (for one thing, I'm always happy to hear about fandoms I might enjoy) but I've tentatively worked out a plan of which fandom I want to write for each kink. Some of the matches are obvious (Lawrence of Arabia and caning), but if you want to know why I've assigned "foot fetish" to the Wimsey-verse or "dirty talk" to Sherlock Holmes . . . well, I hope all will be revealed in the stories to come. /tease
