resonant posted a call for top 5 prompts and that sounds like a good thing to help me engage a bit more actively in December. I'm not good at picking favorites, but will reply with "five good examples of." Since I have no expectations/illusions about getting enough to fill all 30 days of December, I'll just answer them every couple of days in the order they arrive.

Please give me something to talk about, friends. Twitter is dying but I don't have sufficient mental focus to learn a new social media platform rn and I am starving for interaction.

Hooray! I see you and I share an enthusiasm for old-fashioned country music, so how about 5 old country songs you love?

[clevermanka]

What a great one to start with! 😍

[naye]

Top 5 weathers! I figure that should let you be pretty specific with what you enjoy and why. :D

[clevermanka]

Ooooo, I love weather, yes.

[umadoshi]

What five things do you find most satisfying/enjoyable to cook?

[clevermanka]

NICE. This one will take some pondering.

[minoanmiss]

1) describe a particularly awesome belly dance performance
2) when did you first realize the Minoans were painting you?
3) favorite fruit
4) a moment of sheer beauty
5) silver or gold?

[clevermanka]

These are great! omg the second one 😂

[forestofglory]

Hot beverages and/or sweets

[clevermanka]

Mmmmmm yesssssssssssss

[write_out]

What (5, if you have that many) books/comics/print media of your choice would you like to see adapted into film/tv?
What 5 dishes would you like to learn how to make?
What are your top 5 soundtracks?

[clevermanka]

Oh, these will be fun!

[mumblemumble]

Five fictional characters you love. <3

[clevermanka]

*rubs hands together gleefully*

[wrote_and_writ]

5 pictures of mushrooms/fungi? Or 5 pieces of media you were obsessed with when you were in middle school?

[clevermanka]

YOU SEE ME 🧡🍄🧡

[wrote_and_writ]

I saw something (probably you reblogged it on tumblr, I can’t remember) of a person taking a photo of the tiniest mushroom they had ever seen and it was like the size of a tiny bug, like a small bee and I was so jealous! I want to see a tiny mushroom 😤

[clevermanka]

I have a hairfork that has tiny little mushrooms and other mini-flora in a resin topper. It's huge and too heavy for frequent use but I felt like a forest queen when I wore it.

[stultiloquentia]

Top five monsters.

[clevermanka]

*BIG GIANT KISS*

[ranalore]

Five goddesses you love.

[clevermanka]

Oooooooooooo, yes

[nnozomi]

Five favorite pieces of fanart and/or fanartists?
Five favorite fic tropes?
Less fannishly, five favorite cooking spices?

[clevermanka]

Yay! Love getting multiple questions!

[msmitti]

This is a great thread! Alas, I am not able to come up with anything remotely interesting like the above suggestions. If you opt to share your writing though, I am totally looking forward to reading any of these.

[clevermanka]

Happy to share a few lines of the current WIP and will give me an impetus to write more, too. Double win!

[goss]

Top 5 movies from your favourite genre?

[clevermanka]

My genre of choice is determined by my mood 😂 so I don't really have a fave, but I can pick five movies of a particular genre (you pick the genre) or five movies that I love from five separate genres. Would either of those work?

eta: except Heists! Heists make me ridiculously nervous. They're basically what I think watching horror must feel like for other people

[goss]

They're basically what I think watching horror must feel like for other people

Heh. Um...how about Mystery?

[clevermanka]

You got it!

[lunarriviera]

top 5 baby animals?

[clevermanka]

My actual face at this prompt:

[libitina]

five places you have walked in the past and one where you'd like to be in the future.

[clevermanka]

What a beautiful prompt, thank you!

[redheadfae]

Five tiny things you own and love.
Do you mind if I steal this idea? I need something to engage myself here more too.

[clevermanka]

Thanks! You know I love tiny things.

And go for it!

[brandywine28]

Alright, I'm tryin' it! It looks like you're inundated, though, so if you don't get around to mine, no worries!

1. 5 time travel destinations (in a scenario where time travel absolutely would NOT cause any kind of temporal rift or universe-destroying paradox! We're all about safety here! :)

2. 5 karaoke songs

3. 5 things you used to hate, but now love (or vice versa!)

[clevermanka]

Oooo, these are great, thank you!

[msmitti]

I thought of a couple:
five animated films
five guilty pleasures (I was thinking cheesy songs, but take this any direction you like)

[msmitti]

Also, five yoga poses.

[clevermanka]

Yes! I already have Thoughts!

[salamandras]

If you still need more ideas, how about 5 horror films? And 5 web comics, if you have that many you like?

[clevermanka]

Thank you! I'm gonna continue these into January so yay! More prompts!

[awanderingcoyote]

Five favorite snippets of dialogue. Could be show, book, movie. Whatever you like!! I’ve loved reading all the prompts!!

[clevermanka]

Thank you for giving me another one! Wow, this one is going to take some thinking. 🤔
