Pathologic Prompt Meme!

Hello, welcome to the Pathologic Prompt Meme!

Please make anonymous prompts for things you would like to see, or anonymously fulfill prompts by creating stories, poetry, drawn art, music, or anything! I just want to say that this prompt meme is open to people of all skill levels, so have fun!

Some basic rules that were recommended to help out before we get started:

- This is the Pathologic Prompt Meme, and it's SFW! Please post any NSFW prompts or fills into the NSFW Pathologic Kink Meme. A good rule of thumb is whether or not you'd be comfortable with your boss at work looking over your shoulder and reading what you have on screen.

- If you're worried about anything being a little too gore-heavy (e.g. certain medical procedures can be), or etc., please post it in the NSFW Pathologic Kink Meme. This decision is for folks who have limits in regard to certain explicit things. Speaking of explicit things...

- Please use tags and content warnings, especially for things that people might be triggered over. For prompt fillers, please put those tags in the beginning of the post so that way people can skip over them if need be. Tags can also attract people to your art if it has content that they're interested in, so it can be a helpful tool for content creators as well.

- No writers of incest (kains which does include aglaya and her relatives, stamatins, olgimskys, etc), underage/adult ships (which DOES include Clara,) or rape. Please don't make anything gross happen to underage characters!

- Multiple fills to a single prompt is not only accepted, but wonderful! It's a win-win for everybody!

- In the case of a filler of a prompt going inactive for a long time in the middle of a story, it's okay for a different person to continue where they left off. Please make it obvious that you're not the original author, and then feel free to write.

And that's as much as I have in regards to rules! Hopefully these answered answer any questions you might have! Feel free to recommend any rules of your own, or ask me for clarification on the current ones.

AND THAT'S IT! Have fun! :D

Latest Prompt: Peter and Andrey, working out their codependency (link)
Latest Fill: [fill] (Mod note: This is Peter coping after Andrey's death, but I'm having a hard time finding the corresponding prompt post for this for some reason. It's well-written, but for some reason Dreamwidth glitched out on making this post visible. Please give this author some love! (link)
Latest Comment: Re: Someone is a killer. On god I will write this. Saw this prompt a month ago before I even stepped foot into the game and was stricken. This will. . . this will happen. . ." (link)

i have a request! can you please write about the first time you met katerina and why you fell in love with her thank you saburov i love your work

THANK YOU, KIND FELLOW. I'D BE HAPPY TO TELL YOU OF THOSE WONDERFUL AND HEADY TIMES. THIS WAS A LONG TIME AGO, WHEN I WAS A YOUNGER MAN.

I WAS SOMEONE FROM AN UNHAPPY HOME AT THE TIME, AND WOULD OFT SPEND MY TIME AWAY ON THE STREETS INSTEAD. IT WAS HARD AT TIMES, BUT DON’T FRET. IT WAS THERE ON THE BLACKTOP WHERE I TRULY SHINED.

I WAS KNOWN AS A ‘BALLER.’ A BASKETBALLER.

( Music choice: https://youtu.be/66w5nKyXYZY )

EVEN AMONG THE SKILLED PLAYERS, I WAS ONE OF THE TOP-RANKED. SLAMDUNKS, LAYUPS, EVEN SHOTS FROM ACROSS THE COURTS WERE THINGS I WAS KNOWN FOR. THEY CALLED ME THE WOLF OF THE BASKETBALL COURT, OR JUST PLAIN SABUROV THE WOLF AT TIMES.

IT WAS NICE BUT I TRIED NOT TO FOCUS TOO MUCH ON NICKNAMES OR FAME. THERE WERE PLENTY OF OTHER RUDE PLAYERS WHO CHASED A TITLE, AND I DIDN’T WANT TO BE ONE OF THEM.

…

I JUST RECEIVED A LETTER FROM ONE OF VICTOR’S MESSENGERS. IT SAID “LOL IRONY.” IT’S ALL IN LOWERCASE TOO. HE’S JUST SHOWING OFF NOW. ANOTHER THING FOR ME TO TOSS INTO MY FIREPLACE. CARRYING ON.

A TEAM COMPOSED OF THOSE AFOREMENTIONED HOTSHOTS WOULD OFTEN COME ACROSS THE BLACKTOP AND CHALLENGE ANYONE THEY THOUGHT THEY COULD PICK ON. I WAS SICK AND TIRED OF SEEING PEOPLE GET PICKED ON. I WOULD CHALLENGE THEM.

IT WAS A GAME OF THREE-ON-THREE. I WAS ALONE HOWEVER. MY TEAMMATES GAVE UP EARLY ON, AND DIDN’T WANT TO TAKE ON THE HIGHER RANKED PLAYERS. I COULD HAVE GIVEN UP TOO, AND THAT WOULD’VE BEEN MORE SENSIBLE, I SUPPOSE, BUT I WAS A HOTHEADED PERSON WHO DIDN’T WANT THOSE BULLIES TO GET WHAT THEY WANT.

PREDICTABLY A TEAM OF ONE-ON-THREE WASN’T GOING IN MY FAVOR. “NOT EVEN THE WOLF OF THE BASKETBALL COURT COULD STOP THEM” I HEARD THE ONLOOKERS SAY. DRIBBLING THE BALL IN MY HAND, MY KNEES WERE SHAKING. I KNEW THAT DEFEAT LINGERED OVER ME…

“HEY, PASS THE BALL!” I HEARD SOMEONE SAY TO ME. I SNAPPED MY HEAD TO WHERE THE SHOUT HAD COME FROM AND SAW A LADY THERE, DRESSED IN BASKETBALL SHORTS, A JERSEY, AND SNEAKERS. IT WAS ‘KAT THE BAT’ KATERINA.

I QUICKLY SENT THE BALL HER WAY, AND BEFORE ANY OF THE OPPOSING TEAM PROCESSED WHAT WAS GOING ON, SHE HAD WOVEN BETWEEN THEM AND SLAMMED THE BALL THROUGH THE HOOP. THERE WAS NOW ANOTHER PLAYER IN THE GAME.

OH, I WASN’T TOO SURE WHAT WAS MORE BEAUTIFUL, THE MYSTERIOUS STRANGER THAT HAD COME TO RESCUE ME FROM AN ASSURED DEFEAT, OR THOSE WONDERFUL SHOTS SHE MADE THAT TOUCHED NOTHING BUT NET.

YOU MAY THINK THAT TWO PEOPLE IS NOT ENOUGH TO QUALIFY AS A TEAM, BUT AS SOON AS WE WERE TOGETHER, WE WERE UNSTOPPABLE. WE WON QUITE HANDILY, AND THOSE BASKETBALL RUFFIANS THOUGHT TWICE ABOUT COMING TO OUR COURTYARD.

AFTER THE GAME I ASKED HER WHY SHE JOINED IN TO HELP ME. SHE SAID THAT SHE COULDN’T BEAR TO SEE ME LOSE AGAINST THOSE PEOPLE. I FELT MY HEART FLUTTER, AND SHE CHUCKLED AT MY SUDDENLY FLUSHED CHEEKS.

THE TIMES MAY HAVE CHANGED, AND WE MAY HAVE MOVED ON FROM THE BLACKTOPS, BUT WE STILL REMAIN AN UNSTOPPABLE TEAM TOGETHER. WHEN SHE GIVES ME A SMILE, I STILL FEEL THE SAME AS I DID BACK THEN. WE CAN ACHIEVE ANYTHING SO LONG AS WE HAVE EACH OTHER.

IT WAS NICE TO REMINISCE ABOUT THOSE DAYS. MAYBE I SHOULD GET KATERINA SOME OF THOSE PASTRIES I SAW AT THE BAKER'S.

I am honored to read the writing of the most dutiful and serious Governor Saburov. My heart beats faster as I read these tales of basketball and glory.

Can I request a piece about how you plan to deal with your receding hairline?

WH-WHY SURE, THAT WOULD BE POSSIBLE... BUT FIRST, OUT OF SHEER CURIOSITY, COULD YOU TELL ME IF, NOT TO BE SUSPICIOUS OR ANYTHING, YOUR OPINION OF NINA KAIN? OR MAYBE VICTOR KAIN? POSITIVE, NEGATIVE, OR NEUTRAL? JUST CURIOUS. JUST TESTING. I MEAN, CURIOUS.

Oh, there is no need to be suspicious! I am no Kain collaborator, if that is what you are curious about.

I am neutral towards the Kains as a whole. Hm...I would let Nina Kaina step on me but if I saw her commit murder I would contact the proper authorities. Victor Kain looks like my old math teacher for whom I have no feelings either positive or negative.

>>I would contact the proper authorities

AH, THAT'S GOOD TO HEAR! WELL THEN, TRUTH BE TOLD, I'M NOT SURE IF I CAN WEAVE A LENGTHY STORY OUT OF THIS ONE.

I WOULD LOVE TO SAY THAT I’M STRONG IN ALL ASPECTS OF LIFE, BUT THE TRUTH IS THAT I’M NOT. TIME MAKES FOOLS OF US ALL, AND THE FACE IN THE MIRROR COMES TO REFLECT A VERSION OF MYSELF DAY BY DAY THAT I’M NOT TOO KEEN TO ACCEPT. I CAN TAKE WEAR AND TEAR SHOWING ITSELF AT LAST UPON ME, BUT I’D LOVE IT IF MY HAIR WASN’T TOO EAGER TO LEAVE. MAYBE THE YOUTH HERE HAVE NEVER KNOWN ME ANY OTHER WAY THAN NOW, BUT I HAD A BIT MORE HAIR BEFORE…

THOUGH TO BE HONEST KATERINA SAYS THAT I LOOK AS HANDSOME AS EVER, AND THAT’S ALL I REALLY NEED. VICTOR NEVER HAD TO WORRY ABOUT HIS HAIR WHAT WITH HIS BLESSEDNESS, WHILE VLAD PRESSURED ISIDOR FRUITLESSLY FOR SALVES AND CURES TO NO EFFECT AS HE BALDED. I THINK UNLIKE THOSE TWO, I CAN ACCEPT BEING HUMAN, WARTS AND ALL, AND THAT GIVES ME A CERTAIN STRENGTH MISSING FROM THEM.

I’LL CONSIDER THIS ONE A FREEBIE THAT WON’T TAKE AWAY FROM THE AMOUNT OF TALES I’M WILLING TO WRITE. CLARA TRIED TO LEND ME HER HAT, SINCE SHE WAS “BALD TOO.” I ALREADY HAD THIS RESPONSE PREPARED FOR HER SO I COULD DECLINE*, SO THAT’S WHY I DON’T CONSIDER THIS A PART OF THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF TALES.

*I LOVE MY ADOPTED DAUGHTER, BUT I’D RATHER NOT WEAR HER HAT. I DON’T KNOW WHERE IT’S BEEN, AND SHE KEEPS REFUSING MY EFFORTS TO GET HER TO CLEAN IT. PLEASE DON’T THINK ILL OF ME.

Hey, Saburov, tell us a tale of your triumphs over crime and disorderly behavior! Surely as governor you have many of them...

Pardon my delay, dear anon. My typewriter has broken down, hence my entry this time around will be handwritten. I hope my penmanship will be serviceable enough for the task at hand.

As you may know, our town here is one that is lacking in heavy crime. One should be grateful I suppose that there is a strong taboo against the cutting of the body, which does preclude things like murder from happening. That is not to say that there is no crime at all however! It’s just that the nature of the crimes must be more thoroughly searched for due to their smaller size.

Some may think that I’m too thorough in my search for crime. However, in this tale in particular that I will relate to you now, people approached and begged me to do something. For you see, it was a problem of great importance.

People’s toilets were overflooding.

I instantly blamed the Stamatins, and upon reviewing the evidence further, I continued to blame the Stamatins but now confident that my suspicions were right. You see, the problems were not merely that the citizenry’s toilets were overflooding, but that they were overflooding in ways that were anomalous in nature, and not dependent on the actions of their owners. It turned out that even without being used, the toilets would fill with refuse from a different household entirely.

Upon interrogation the Stamatins revealed they had devised a new type of toilet that would bypass the need for plumbing entirely. With a flush of the toilet, the waste would always go down the drain, and disappear from sight. I asked then where the waste would go to, and the brothers then pulled out blueprints, and traced down the notes and calculations down the side. But then they told me, that reasonably there were no guarantees of where the waste would go. “But fuck it, it’s not really that much of a problem is it?” Andrey, the brasher of the brothers, said.

Well as you can imagine, that’s not a suitable legal defense. I ordered them to immediately undo their ‘air dump’ project, and replace the anomalous toilets with regular god-respecting ones. Law and order has prevailed ever since.

loving these stories, alex. maybe when you buy a new typewriter you can choose something like my KINGJIM Digital Pomela Silva - DM30 SIL with lowercase functions. just a suggestion, though.

anyways, my daughter wants to know if you have any embarrassing stories about old people around town. i think she was making fun of me. :/

((Hey I'm the authornon here, and I'm currently thinking up ideas for what to write, but I just felt like stopping by to say that this reply managed to grab me by the collar and toss me across the room. I was not expecting to be called out by Victor Kain himself, but I laughed heartily and was impressed nevertheless. *golf clap* Thank you so much!))
