Pick the Date and Theme for ColdWestAllen Week 2k19!
Themed weeks are a-go once again for this yearâs ColdWestAllen Week! The official poll to pick the theme is live here and closes Friday, April 12th at midnight! The poll for the dates is also live here.Â
As the official poll doesnât leave room to explain each theme in detail, Iâve left more information below. You only get one vote, so be sure to read up on your choices first!
30s, 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s.
With both The Flash and Legends of Tomorrow dabbling in time travel, why not explore time yourself? Maybe a jaunt on the Waverider brings our trio to see the first performance of Julius Caesar in 1599, or maybe an unintentional burst of speed sends Barry to face his future in 2035. Not interested in time travel? Consider an AU of your favourite cheesy 80s movie, a historical AU, or even a themed sock-hop dance in a high school AU. Â Â Â Â
Continental ColdWestAllen
North America, South America, Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia, Antarctica.
Long distance relationships, work trips, destination weddings. Or maybe itâs going on a date to the zoo to see the penguins, or a meet-cute where they share a table at their favourite Thai restaurant to beat the backlog of people waiting to be seated. Whether theyâre living abroad, travelling, or experiencing a piece of the world right at home in Central City, this is a chance to see what happens when ColdWestAllen goes global. Â
Showers, Flowers, Bugs, Birds, Sunshine, Cleaning, Break.
Itâs that time of year again, a time of growth and rebirth and fresh starts â at least in the Northern hemisphere, anyway. While the prompts are spring-related, the fills certainly donât have to be. Write about what happens when ants interrupt a picnic, or three people try to have shower sex, or the White Canary comes to visit. The possibilities are endless!
Old, New, Borrowed, Blue, Rings, Bells, Vows.
While the theme says wedding on the tin, the fills donât need to be wedding specific. What happens when Iris borrows Lenâs parka in the case of a secret relationship and suddenly has some explaining to do? Or when Barry vows to stop at nothing to finally put Len behind bars, until the flirtatious banter between them makes that a vow he might not be able to keep? Of course, a good old fashioned ColdWestAllen wedding fic would be more than welcome, too! Â Â
Sight, Sound, Touch, Taste, Smell, Temperature, Pain.
A perfect vehicle for the exploration of some great sensory delights. Whether itâs scorching hot smut involving the Cold Gun, date night out at a fancy restaurant, or a touring musicians AU, the choices are endless! Take a stab at creating beautiful works in various mediums and make the most of what this sense-pleasing week has to offer.Â
