We’re doing this a bit early this year. My work has increased my hours and I’ve started a new project for August 2025 and I have another new project in October. So–we’re opening prompts now. I need as much time as I can get!

Prompts will be open for exactly one week (until Next Monday).

(We also have a couple more posts coming Friday nights, so expect those too!)

Please give me several prompts. Be creative. You know what my genres and pairings are.

Remember that your prompts are eligible for NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month). Although NaNoWriMo.og has been taken offline, NaNoWriMo lives on and I will still be participating! For my past NaNo novels, please see my NaNoWriMo Page. For 2023 (Breakable Heaven (Paper Flowers)) I combined four prompts… so you never know what is going to happen!

So put your thinking caps on, wish away, and let me know! I hope to post your prompts by November at the latest! -cen

This one will be a Twilight/Harry Potter crossover. Seth Clearwater/ Harry P. pairing.

Harry is one of the original wolves, but instead of involving himself with the tribes, he isolates himself. During the battle, Seth is fighting one of the Vampires and gets injured to the point of howling. Harry comes out of hiding, helps and destroys the Vampires.

Everything else is up to your imagination 😁

Pride and Prejudice/Twilight: Darcy is a vampire and comes to visit the Cullen’s but just misses them as they’ve already left after the birthday fiasco. Could have him find her in the forest? or have him save her from Laurent instead of the wolves. Or protects her in Port Angles etc.. its up to you 😀

Pride and Prejudice/Harry Potter: When Harry is young he wishes himself away from the Dursleys and ends up as Mr Collins adopted little brother. They cross paths during one of Darcy’s visits to his Aunt. (Harry could have still attended Hogwarts etc…And Mr Collins accepts the magic as instead of being against God but as part of God’s plan so he is treated well by his new brother) Darcy could be a Squib?

Pride and Prejudice/Twilight: Bella is married to Owenstry and Pregnant with their first child together when Darcy calls in unexpectedly. Could have Darcy try to ensnare Bella away/Or have them have a good friendly relationship and she cautions him on marrying Elizabeth Bennet because he literally just confessed that she is always rather horrible to him. And for fun you could have Darcy be stuck alone with Bella when she goes into labour because her husband was called away for whatever reason. (I think Darcy panicking would be funny)

Pride and Prejudice/Twilight: Darcy’s cousin, Richard is turned into a vampire and meets Bella when he is called in by Jasper to help with their newborn problem. He seduces her away from Edward, who lets be honest is semi glad that she falls in love with someone else and hates it. He waits for her to graduate high school before turning her. Even offers to turn her dad just so she doesn’t have to watch him die/continue to lie to him.

Pride and Prejudice/Harry Potter: Harry Potter falls through the veil at the Ministry with Sirius Black and find themselves back in time. Accepted as a new branch of the Black family, they settle into life free of war. Only…Harry touched something weird earlier in the DOM or due to weird magic or settle into their new time…Harry becomes a girl (you can choose if Sirius becomes a woman as well its up to you). Harry is attending a ball in Hampshire, visiting one of Sirius’ cousins, and is the only woman that Darcy asks to dance. Harry struggles with his desire to give in, to fall in love with Darcy and his guilt in hiding magic and his origins.

OR and I would love this, after one of your Carlisle is stuck with Bella back in time until he marries her off to Darcy stories, what if just before or after the wedding there’s an accident and Carlise saves Bella by turning her, having grown reluctantly fond of her as her guardian. He also turns Darcy because he knows that if he doesn’t then Bella would never forgive him and he does not need that drama for the eternity. So Carlise is stuck ‘raising two newborn vampires.

Flash forward to about a month or half a year after whatever the Volturi did to send Bella back in time, Bella turns up with Darcy and is like hi, long time no see. They had parted ways with Carlise after he had met Esme to avoid messing further with the timeline.

Insert Edward throwing a tantrum that 1) Bella is a vampire and 2) is mated to another vampire who she has been with for longer than Edward has been alive.

Owestry/Eloise Bridgerton
Mr. Darcy is flabbergasted to discover that Miss Eloise, the lady he wishes to court, is in love with his spineless cousin Owestry.

Duke of Hastings/Bella Swan

Bella finds herself in the past and gains the marked attention of the Duke of Hastings, who happens to be her soulmate.

Anthony Bridgerton/Female Harry Potter

Lady Harriet Black is the diamond of the season. Viscount Anthony Bridgerton will have her as his wife no matter what.

Benedict Bridgerton/Georgiana Darcy

Georgiana is finally old enough to court. Benedict comes to pay suit immediately. He will win her heart as she has won his.

Mr. Darcy/Francesca Bridgerton

While visiting his younger sister at her finishing school in Bath, Mr. Darcy meets Miss Francesca Bridgerton. He falls in love at first sight.

  Haru, I am taking several of your prompts and making it into my NaNoWriMo this year. They weave so effortlessly into each other. I’m already planning and it’s not even August yet!
  
  Would you like to suggest another Owestry prompt (oh I love him so much!) for the prompt hub as this Eloise/Owestry prompt is going to be my main storyline for NaNo?
  
  Hope you get this! cen

    That’s so exciting! Thank you, cen. I’m thrilled you like my prompts!
    
    For a new Owestry prompt …
    
    Owestry/Francesca Bridgerton
    
    Owestry isn’t a “brave” gentleman, as far as his brother and cousin are concerned, but he won’t let anyone importune a lady in his presence, especially one as clearly uncomfortable as Miss Francesca Bridgerton.

Here are a few ideas; hope something resonates!

Idea #1: It would be interesting to see Bella attempting a traditional “fix it fic.” In canon, she’s used to taking care of things for her mom, and of putting others ahead of herself. That might translate well into her trying to give the Bennets their “happily ever ever” sooner/better, especially if she’s aware that she is now in P&P (most of your versions have her unaware, or born in that time period, but it may ratchet up the angst/guilt if she thinks she’s an interloper that doesn’t deserve [insert thing here]). Would prefer Fitzwilliam or Owestry as the ML, but I’m ok if your muse takes you elsewhere.

Idea#2: We usually have your ML’s falling first and then actively pursuing the FL. It’d be cool if you wrote the reverse, when the FL fell first, but upon trying to pursue the ML within the constraints of polite society, he falls harder. (The only time I think you’ve done this is with Amortenia and the Lucius/Lily sandman fic?) But I’d prefer P&P, P&P/Twilight crossover, or Bridgerton for this.

I would love to see your version of a Newt Scamander/Percival Graves set in your pure blood culture world. Maybe they were arranged to marry before Grindelwald switched places? Newt comes home from a trip and finds they have switched and drama ensues.

I’m loving your Gambler!Bella – how about dropping her into the Bridgerton universe? Either on the outskirts of “polite” society (maybe a friend of Gen/Sienna/the Granvilles?) or in place of Marina (I can totally see her using a debt from Lord Featherington for an entrance to society – maybe).

I’m not a huge Collin fan, but Bella/Benedict (she would fit right into his life) or Bella/Anthony (she would turn his life upside down).

Bridgeton/twilight: Bella is the youngest bridgeton sister (Isabella). Simon is willing to wait for Bella/Isabella. She’s the only one he wishes to marry.

Bridgeton/twilight: Bellas as either Benedicts twin or takes Benedicts place. She’s Anthony’s trial by fire in the marriage mart long before Daphne.

Bridgeton: there’s something about Penelope Featherington that would make her a exceptional Dutchess of Hasting. Lady Danbury is certain of it. Now to get her godson to see it.

P&P/Twilight: Carlisle Cullen falls for Mr Darcy ward: Bella Swann.

Bridgeton/Twilight: Colin Bridgeton returns to his family from Italy with an unexpected surprise: his wife Isabella Swann/Volturi

If you’ve got anymore Romilda Vane inspiration in you, I’d love to see it. Maybe more on that Anthony Bridgerton/Romilda Vane one, or just anything Romilda Vane inserted anywhere, I love your version of her.

  Hi, Elisabeth, Don’t know if you’ll see this. Prompts are now closed, but I’ll see if I can slip you in. I just reread Amortenia (I like to reread my fics now and again), and Romilda is wonderful. I don’t have a prompt coming out on Friday, October 31 and I thought that was unfair. Mhmmm…
