Rec 1:Untitled Ψiioniic ♥/♠ Her Imperious Condescension Team: Team Eridan<>Rose Creator:astrophrenia Why I’m recommending it: BR1 inspired a lot of people to play around not only with different genres, but also format. The prompt here was to mix found poetry and fairy tales. The result is a wonderful fusion of styles. It uses excerpts from Homestuck along with classic excerpts from Grimm and modern popular music to create one unified whole.
Rec 2:Melted Snowman Tutorial (Slick ♠ Snowman) Team: Team Parcelpyxis Creator:zivlok Why I’m recommending it: More found poetry, here from a source you wouldn't have thought of using for a horror prompt: a recipe. Through changing the pacing the words change from an innocent activity for kids to a truly creepy love poem to pain. The effect is a little like glancing something out of the corner of your eye. The fact you can't see it clearly makes it almost more horrible.
Rec 3:Untitled Doc Scratch ♥ Ms. Paint Team: Team Aradia<>Dave Creator:eremiticantiquarian Why I’m recommending it: An unusual pairing to be sure, but this story makes it work. Scratch is a man of many words, too many to be honest, and the connection to propaganda speech is clear one. Here Scratch's bombastic tone is used to sing the praises of the humble Ms. Paint in an attempt at seduction. The result is as hilariously tongue in cheek as you'd expect.
