(updated 6 June)

Welcome everybody. How you got here I have no idea but thank you for coming and welcome again, nonetheless . As you may have gathered this is a Fic Prompting Meme dedicated solely to the hilarious and oh-so-addictive BBC Radio 4 sitcom - Cabin Pressure. I'm aiming for this to be pretty anything goes - but in order for everything to run smoothly, there are a few guidelines. Don't worry - they're not too restrictive.


FILLING GUIDELINES



As you probably all know - our meme now has it's very own database created and maintained by the great Enigel. It both catalogues each and every prompt that we post and provides links to fills. You can find it here: Google Spreadsheet

We also have a Pinboard archive which has been put in place by the lovely [personal profile] oxfordtweed in the place of our late Delicious Archive. This Archive contains a list of all the prompts this meme has to offer - you can find it here: Pinboard Archive

This is a great step forward in making our meme just a little more organised (but not too organised of course. This is Cabin Pressure) which is always a good thing.

So in order to make things easier to archive - Please nest your fills.

This can be done by either posting each part as a reply to that part's immediate predecessor, OR by replying each time to Part I OR - well you get the idea :D

It makes it simpler for Enigel and myself to link fills in a clean and clear manner. Following these guildelines will be very much appreciated guys :D

REPROMPTING



Reprompting is allowed but please include the URL of the original prompt when you do so. It will make it infinitely more easy to Archive which would make both Enigel and I very happy :)

As for everything else



  1. Be respectful to one another. Disagreements are fine, but not everything disagreeable is trolling. If you suspect someone of trolling, just ignore it. If you cannot respond to a comment without attacking or trolling someone else, keep it to yourself.

  2. No bashing prompts. It might not be your cup of tea - but obviously someone wants it enough to go to the effort of requesting it. So just scroll past it.

  3. Prompt away as much as you like guys - seriously, go wild - but please try to fill as well.

  4. NEW - If your fill includes a major element that veers from the original prompt (crossovers, established universes, kinks, et cetera), please take a few moments to check with the OP that such additions are welcome. This has caused problems in the past and it only takes a few moments of your time.
  5. Please no RPF. I'm not trying to oppress you RPF writers and enthusiasts, I would just really like to avoid any legal problems.

  6. When you post a fill (or post a new part of a WIP) please go over to the Filled Prompts Post (if it is complete) or the WIP Post (if there are still more parts to come) and, following each post's guideline's, post a link to this fill or new part.


REALLY IMPORTANT ADDENDUM



According to numerous Child Safety laws it is illegal to provide pornographic material to minors. Seeing that the majority of the stuff we have here is rather adult in nature, this Meme is consequently an 18+ zone. Failing to comply to this rule could result in the Meme getting shut down. So if you're here and you're under 18 please back button now.

+ Please do not post anything regarding minors in a sexual situation. It really doesn't matter how tasteful or crass it is, there are laws that classify that sort of thing as child pornography and as such, I'm afraid we're going to have to go with the attitude that safe is better than sorry.

It really is VERY important that these rules are upheld as the consequences are severe.

Other than that - go crazy guys. Any problems please just message me and I'll try my best to work it out.

Something - anything - around the line "Martin, you're not seriously asking me to call you sir..?"

"I'm not... asking, as such. We're off duty. This is an informal occasion-"

"Now that's an understatement."

"I was merely... making a suggestion."

"And your suggestion happens to include my calling you 'sir', while I'm busy..."

"Yes, all right, forget it, no need to kill what's left of the mood."

"Martin, what I was trying to point out was that as fantastically capable and very good at... well, anything as I am, even I can't do two entirely different things with my mouth - at the same time."

"..."

"Are you all right, Martin? I haven't seen you so red-faced since you shook Hester Macauley's hand."

"No, no, I mean yes, I'm fine. It's just, um, didn't mean that thing, I meant... the other. Thing."

"Ah. That's a lot more biologically feasible, and I might even be amenable to the suggestion. But just to make sure I know what I'm consenting to here - do you mean that I should call you 'sir' while I bugger you senseless and pound you into that lovely mattress?"

"... Yes."

"Martin, all that blood shouldn't be going to your face."

"Douglas!"

"It's all right. Sir. I can fix that. With your permission, sir?"

"Nnngh."

"I quite agree, sir."

Should not have checked my LJ inbox at the library...

*face is same colour as Captain Crieff's*

Oh what the hell. It was worth it.

Your fill == total UNF! as well as being terrifyingly in character. This is going to alter my listening experience for quite some time.

*offers you first pick of the cheese tray - you can even have the camembert*

UNFFFFFF

How on earth did I miss this?! It's so in character, I could almost hear them speaking. And it was hot as anything.

Amazing job :)

*dry-mouthed* So. Hot. You just made my day. Just to chime in with the others, very in-character dialogue. I can just hear Martin's stuttering and Douglas' drawling tones.
