Please see the most recent MOD NOTE and ADDENDUM


(updated 5 July)

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.

Martin has Pneumonia (Hurt/Comfort)


(Anonymous)
2012-06-13 05:47 pm UTC (link)
Martin has pneumonia for whatever reasons (no heating in his flat, he neglects his health etc, whatever you decide). He suffers in silence a bit before Douglas and co find him and send him to the hospital.

I must be a h/c sadist, but I really like a cold-shivery then very sick!Martin with fever and hacking coughs that gets everyone worried for him. And worried questions of "Is he alright, Doctor?" scenes in the hospital are also bonus.

Phone Sex MJN style


(Anonymous)
2012-06-13 07:50 pm UTC (link)
I read a couple of prompt and fills from way back where Martin works on a phone sex line and he tends to keep it quite. I'd like to propose a little twist.

Martin in need of some cash, ends up working on a phone sex line. Being Martin he just can't get it right and believes, correctly, that he's going to be let go. Of course, the rest of GERTI's crew notice his distress, find out and, after a certain amount of teasing, offer to help him out.

Carolyn becomes his mystery caller, making him go through the worse type of practice calls.

Arthur starts developing sexy scenarios for him to use during the calls. I'm imagining Arthur's scenarios being slightly bestial, involving writhing on a pile of otters, being tickled by terrapins, sex amongst the polar bears or the insertion of Toblereones, but I'm sure you creative folk out there will have your own ideas.

Lastly, Douglas and/or Herc decide to help him find his confident bedroom voice. If that involves stripping him naked, massaging his 'diaphragm' and generally worshiping his body until he finds his sexy self, then that's what they'll have to do.

or the insertion of Toblereones,
Why don't I read 'Arthur has sex' stories? WHY? this is way more hot than it should be... *blushes*

I love this prompt! Mainly because the blushing factor is quite high for Martin at first. But mostly for the last part (here's oping for a fill and a threesome with D/M/H... *crosses fingers*)

"Douglas will do something clever and everything will be fine."

2012-06-13 09:09 pm UTC (link)
Arthur, Martin and Carolyn all have a lot of faith in Douglas Richardson to solve MJN's problems. Particularly Arthur.

Having that much faith invested in you when you don't have the first clue what to do and can't live up to that faith can be crippling.

Douglas with anxiety over failing his friends please.

Clever Martin


(Anonymous)
2012-06-13 10:15 pm UTC (link)
We've seen that Martin can be clever when he absolutely has to, as long as Douglas isn't around to shoot down his ideas or come up with them himself. I'd love to see the MJN crew get into some sort of trouble or other, and instead of Douglas coming up with the solution, it's Martin who's clever enough to save them all.

Gen is fine. D/M is loved, especially if Martin's cleverness is what makes Douglas finally notice/admit interest.

Bonus points for fun wordgames, Arthur being... well, Arthur, and/or Diego around.

Douglas never hides in the flight deck locker. He never needs to, why should he?

One day, for whatever reason, he ends up in there. When they find him, he's nearly catatonic, shaking and panicking, curled into a lump on the floor. He shrugs it off after a few minutes, snarks about the stench of old socks, and pretends it never happened.

Martin is determined to find out why, and will not let up until he finds out.

Martin's name isn't really Martin. He changed his name because he hated it. Unfortunately though, everyone in his family refuses to call him Martin. They call him by his original name.

Douglas is getting older

Martin/Douglas

Takes place at least 10 years from where we are now (can be longer). Douglas is getting older and keeps thinking of the future and how much older he is compared to Martin. Will Martin still want him? Maybe Douglas tries to break up with Martin because he doesn't think it's fair to Martin?

However you want to wing it, but I would love some sweet smut/fluff by the end of it.

Lucid dreaming


(Anonymous)
2012-06-14 05:41 am UTC (link)
Martin is a lucid dreamer, which means he can remember his dreams perfectly. He prefers all his wonderful dreams to the real world-having food, money, ect. But what makes him begin sleeping for far longer than he should until its seriously affecting his health is the ones about Douglas. He'll never have him, so he'd rather live in his dreams. Douglas discovers this, somehow, and makes Martin realize the real him is so much better.

In Ottery St. Mary Martin says to Arthur, "Anyway, Arthur, you know how though I’m mostly a pilot, I’m also a bit of a man with a van?"

My guess is because of what a horrible secret-keeper Arthur is, he didn't know about Icarus Removals before Douglas did. Can we please have a fic where Martin talks to Arthur about it? Something beyond just Martin revealing this and Arthur just going "Oh, okay. Good," because that might actually be what happens, haha... but I really just want some nice solid Martin/Arthur friendship stuff here! Supportive!Arthur perhaps?

Douglas' mother

Douglas' mother hires MJN to fly her to Monaco. She's obviously rich, still good-looking for her age and even more charming than her son.

She's also an (in)famous con woman and jewel thief.

How does Douglas react to her arrival? Does she flirt with Martin? Does she get on really well with Carolyn or is it knives and broken bottles? Is she completely baffled by Arthur?

Bonus points if it turns out Douglas is actually the *least* crooked one in his family ;)

Sticky Fingers Richardson


(Anonymous)
2012-06-14 04:50 pm UTC (link)
Douglas and Gordon were at Air England together (where else did Gordon learn to fly, and how else would Douglas know so much about his relationship with Carolyn?) They had a torrid affair, but Douglas didn't like being the bit on the side, and gave Gordon an ultimatum. Gordon responded by embezzling from the company and blaming it on Douglas, who got fired. This is why Douglas is so put out by "sticky fingers" in St. Petersburg and why he sticks with Carolyn.

After St. Petersburg, Gordon retaliates by telling MJN everything. Cue aftermath.

Martin didn't get fired from his previous job for incompetance, he got fired for refusing to look the other way when his Captain did something not only against regulations, but horribly dangerous and illegal, and reported the matter to the CAA.

His old captain lost his job and was banned from flying and is out for revenge on Martin, but didn't count on his old pal Douglas working at the same airline. Seems like an advantage? It really isn't.


TLDR; Martin's old captain tries to get revenge on Martin via Douglas. It does not go well.

Martin is a stripper. Gone is the awkward pilot; Martin is able to lose himself in what he is doing, no nervousness, no awkwardness.

Then Douglas shows up for a bit of R&R. He stays back and manages not to be seen. Then he shows up every day that week (or as schedule permits) even after a very very long flight, where Martin should be too tired.

Bonus points if Martin isn't gay, but Douglas is and Douglas just assumes Martin is. Leads to an awkward misunderstanding scene.

martin's first yes. warning: past non-con


(Anonymous)
2012-06-14 07:11 pm UTC (link)
When things progress to a certain stage in their relationship, Douglas finds out that while Martin has had sex before, he's never fully consented to any of the sexual encounters he's ever had. Everything from not taking no for an answer to getting him drunk and taking advantage to worse. Martin's just resigned to this being the way things are, that what he wants or doesn't want doesn't matter one bit, and expects things will go much the same way with Douglas.

On discovering this, Douglas is horrified and sets about trying to make Martin understand that he always has the right to say no, while planning to make the first time Martin says 'yes' to Douglas, whenever he's ready to, if ever, the most amazing experience of Martin's life.


TLDR - Martin has a history of nothing but bad, dubious or non-consensual sexual experiences. Douglas is horrified and wants to make things right.

A Prompt Prompted on this Prompt Meme to be Filled by Fillers Who Fill Prompted Prompts

Watching That Mitchell and Webb Look and came across this exchange in a sketch where a slogan company is really bad at their job:
“Tim, have you come up with anything for that fleet of delivery vans?”
“Alright, it's: 'When there's a thing in a place but the people whose thing it is need it in another place, then wouldn't it be good if there was some kind of system where-”

I can see Martin saying something similar. So, Martin trying and failing to come up with a slogan for Icarus Removals. Possibly with Arthur and/or Douglas and/or Carolyn discovering what he's trying to do and each putting in their bit (read: enthusiastic "assistance" or mockery).
Whether they are successful or not is up to you.
