Sunshine 2020: Prompt Four

[enemytosleep]

Check out the Master List to find links to all of the 2020 challenge posts. Remember that there is no official deadline, so feel free to join in at any time or go back and do any prompts you've missed!

If you are inspired to answer with art, vid, or other media, we’d love for you to share what you created! If you create any fanworks, feel free to add them to our AO3 Collection.



Prompt 4: Green
Green is a rich color that is associated with a variety of things including: awakening, growth, renewal, productivity, intelligence, exuberance, prosperity, money, luck, envy, greed, survival, nature, spring, and birth.

Green is the prime color of the world, and that from which its loveliness arises. —Pedro Calderon de la Barca

Green can be the fresh growth of spring plants after a long winter. Green can be the good fortune waiting for you around each corner. What green things have you enjoyed this year?

Please feel free to answer in whichever way comes naturally to you, be it a memory you share or an artwork you create. If you’d like a more specific idea to kick things off: share with us some books or fanworks that remind you of the color green or its related themes.

I have written a poem about spring.

Re: Done!

[impala_chick]

Really lovely poem!

[greerwatson]

Two takes. One is a reminiscence, the other natters on about naming colours.

[autobotscoutriella]

Thanks for joining us! You made some very interesting observations about color names.

I recommended a bunch of accounts to follow if you like pretty photos of flowers, nature, vegetables, or gardens, here on Dreamwidth.

💚

[oldtoadwoman]

So many lovely photos!

[shadowhive]

Here’s My post and it’s open for visitors!

💚

[oldtoadwoman]

You had several that I hadn't thought of.

[shipperslist]

Did the thing. Seems like I'm committed to this rambling, introspective style. 🤔

💚

[oldtoadwoman]

I enjoy your introspective musings.

[narya_flame]

I made a moodboard!

[yarnofariadne]

Oh that's stunning!

[mythicmistress]

Here's mine, visitors welcome (even if it is kind of short)

The ship is delightful.

Thank you for sharing and reminding me about Oscar the Grouch.

Done - my 3 favorite green things in pics

Welcome to all. :)

[oldtoadwoman]

All three are very cool.

[smallhobbit]

Three things, including photos, plus fanfics: Here

💚

[oldtoadwoman]

Lovely green photos!

[bloodydemonic]

Some Doctor Who and some Star Wars here, complete with the now-standard history/art nerding :)

💚

[oldtoadwoman]

Awesome choices all!

Whoops!

[peoriapeoriawhereart]

Just like I've done for the first three, there's social and there's the prompt answer. There is a youtube link, some exploration of fandom mashups, and a very diffuse fic rec. (I don't recall titles, it's a problem.)

Just click on my username and scroll down past the sticky post. I'm just rushing past.

💚

[oldtoadwoman]

Awesome

Red pill, Blue pill, Green code

Green makes me think of the matrix

Re: Red pill, Blue pill, Green code

[oldtoadwoman]

Agreed. Even before The Matrix, I've had a strong connection with "sci-fi green" and "glowing computer text green" and The Matrix cemented it. I still remember seeing that film in the theater and enjoying it immensely.

[muccamukk]

Joni Mitchell's "Little Green," Inside Llewyn Davis, and How to Suppress Women's Writing. Ready for visitors.

💚

[oldtoadwoman]

I appreciate how thoughtful this was.

[pensnest]

Mine is here: https://pensnest.dreamwidth.org/670717.html

[oldtoadwoman]

Lorne!

[walgesang]

I talked about one of my favorite foods, the avocado! Avocado and non-avocado aficionados welcome. :)

💚

[oldtoadwoman]

Avocados are magical!

fun fact: avocados are linked to now-extinct giant sloths (I don't think the photos do it justice. I saw a skeleton in person in a museum once and the things were freaking gigantic.)

[tippetariuswrites]

I did it! The plant from Wall-E, Hobbiton, and a Skyrim OC.

💚

[oldtoadwoman]

Love it!

[oldtoadwoman]

Offering to make green icons.
