Take a pairing (or two or more characters), and put them in this random generator, then post your favourite resulting prompts (as many as you wish) in a comment below and I will try to oblige you by writing at least one of them.

Give me a number plus a ship† and I’ll write you a spooky‡ ficlet.
( Prompts )
†: Or characters who aren't a couple, if you prefer. I'll take a '/' to mean they're a couple, '&' to mean they aren't.
‡: The management accept no responsibility for any lack of spookiness in ficlets.

I've got a list of 20 of my favourite pairings. All you need to do is give me a number (1-20) and a mundane household chore, like folding laundry or doing dishes, and I'll write a snippet and explain how the task would go, in-character for that pairing and universe.
(OK, to be honest, the 20 pairings in my list aren't necessarily my favourites, but the ones I think may generate workable prompts for this meme. So if you see Ten/Rose show up, don't judge me 😅.)
If you want to play and can't think of 20 favourite pairings, you can always try suggestions from random generators. Beware of brain breakage, though.
Memed from thisbluespirit, though I googled around for a non-abridged version of the prompt list.
Comment with a number, and a pairing/two or more characters, and I'll try to write you a ficlet or drabble.

Pick a date below and give me a topic, and I'll ramble on. I'm good at talking. It can be anything from fandom-related (specific characters, actors, storylines, episodes, etc.) to life-related to pizza preferences to whatever you want.
They will probably be brief, or not, depending on the subject. Also, I reserve the right to decline prompts that I don't feel equipped to meet.
If none of that appeals, you could always throw a crack pairing at me and see if I can come up with a drabble for it. ( Dates )

Name three fics you think I will never, ever, ever write. In return (and if inspired), I will attempt to write a snippet of one of them.

Memed from lost_spook,
liadtbunny and
scifi_mel:
Give me a topic, and at some point in the next few weeks I'll ramble about it. It can be anything from fandom-related (TV shows, books, computer games) to life-related (aspirations, identity, political beliefs) to pizza preferences* to whatever you want.
My rambles may be brief, or not, depending on the subject.
Also, I reserve the right to decline prompts that I don't feel equipped to meet. Topics: you can get an idea from my tags/my stories/the stuff I usually babble about/from things you maybe wish I talked about more but don't.
(This reminds me vaguely of the premise of Just a Minute. Don't expect a lack of hesitation, deviation or repetition, though).
