I love when this show gets ridiculous, so I encourage you to go into the crack treated seriously or straight up crack direction. I'm currently watching the show with plans to finish before sign ups close. I'll likely come back to add prompts.

Harry Potter

I love Harry Potter fics that really dive into magical jobs, have mysteries similar to the main series, expand and explore how magic works, ignore the epilogue, and/or are set at Hogwarts (whether through Eighth Year or Professor AUs).

-Neville runs into Draco at the new magical supply shop owned by Draco

-Hogwarts rumor has it that Neville and Draco have started a new whirlwind romance in their Eighth Year. No one believes these rumors.

Sky High (2005)

I love how this movie plays with superhero tropes. Any sort of superhero-ey worldbuilding is totally welcome. And I'd love to see Layla and other friends. Or new characters with equally ridiculous superpowers.

-New friendships can be awkward, especially with ex-rivals, especially when you’re pretty sure you have a crush on him
