(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.
  4. Please no RPF. I'm not trying to oppress you RPF writers and enthusiasts, I would just really like to avoid any legal problems.

  5. 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.

Tiny Fill: Arthur <3 Toblerone

Couldn't resist this one. As someone who has been lactose-free since November and misses her airport Toblerones like one would miss a limb this is my tribute to the lovely, triangular shaped delight.

Arthur leapt out of his seat in the galley ready to do his first run through of the passengers with his small trolley of drinks and snacks. If he got done quickly he might have time to join in with a game of 'who's the bendiest' with Douglas and Skip and Arthur liked to think he was pretty bendy.

His first passenger was an attractive woman in the thirties who smelled like butter. Arthur liked butter so this made him very happy. "Hello, my name is Arthur and I shall be happily serving you today on this flight so how may I serve you happily today on this flight. Today."

"What's your choice in dessert wine?" She had a slight Italian lilt to her accent even though they were flying from Gatwick to Binghamton.

"You can have wine for dessert? Brilliant!"

"No, a dessert wine, it's very sweet and fortified."

"Like a castle?"

"No! Just, what is your sweetest wine?"

"Well we have red and white. Or! I could mix them together and make pink! Pink things are sweet."

"Never mind, I'll have still water please."

Arthur bent down to retrieve a bottle of water and a plastic cup and by the time he'd righted himself the passenger had a pulled out a box of small cupcakes. "Wow! You've put a toblerone on top! I love toblerones!"

"Yes, the whole cake is made with them. The sponge and the icing. I'm a baker."

"The... whole... cake?"

"Yes."

"Mmmmmeeepppphh!"

"Excuse me?"

"Sqeeeeuuuu!"

"Are you quite alright?"

"Nnnnngh!"

The woman began pressing on the call button. "Uh, someone... anyone... I think... oh my..."

"Hhhnnnggg!"

Arthur passes out.

"Cupcaaaaaaaaaakessssss!"

"Arthur, what are you on about this time?"

"Cupppcaaakes! Cuuuupcakes!"

"Arthur!"

"Toblerooooooone."

"Are you called Pandora by any chance, Ms?"

"Cuppppcccaaaaaaaakesssss..."

"You... may... have the box?"

"CUPCAKES!!!"

"He means 'thank you'."

"Cup-" munch "-cakes." gulp

"Ah, well. To be fair, with Arthur we've always been one apocalypse short of a zombie apocalypse."

"Not with a bang, but with a gluttonous whimper. Thank you for flying Toblerone Addicts Air."

I think it's terrible that this has no comments, and I also think that this fic is awesome. Oh Arthur *giggles*.
I empathise re being lactose free, though I thank my lucky stars that mine is mild so I'm ok with chocolate that isn't white. *lacto-free hug*

My god, this is fantastic. I could hear the whole thing loud and clear in Arthur's voice. And Carolyn's, actually. One apocalypse short of zombies was a brilliant line. XD
