Prompt 3: Strong Points, Part One. Write a scene in which your character really shines at something. A 100 word drabble.
Prompt 7: Affiliations, Part One. Think about an important relationship your character has to another character in your verse. I wrote a 100 word drabble for this prompt about Mairon and Melkor.
Prompt 8: The Mirror Cliche. Write a scene where your character sees their reflection. What do they see? What do they feel as they see it? A 100 word drabble.
Prompt 15: Big Ideas, Part Two. Using one of the big ideas from Prompt 14, revise an existing fanwork so that this idea is more strongly emphasized or create a new fanwork that brings this idea to the center of the piece.
A 100 word drabble about Mairon as a muse. Like the first chapter 'Angband', but from Melkor's perspective.
Prompt 19: Strong Points, Part Two. Revisit the list of strengths you’ve thought about for Prompt 3. This time, write a scene in which your character’s strong points cause them trouble.
My chosen prompt was: He cares about things and is capable of love. A Silvergifting ficlet (300+ words) where Mairon's love complicates his plans.
