Writing Challenges
For any events, challenges and games you want to run. Challenges can be as formal or as relaxed as you like - writing sprees, themed prompts, fill fests and whatever else you can think of are all welcome! Please note that you shouldn't post actual fills on this post; please put those in response to whatever prompt they're filling and paste a link here, if needed.
You can make a thread on the discussion post advertising any new challenge, but the bulk of challenge-related activity should happen here.
On this post only, anyone running a challenge may post logged-in in order to be able to post clickable links & keep track of responses.
Minor Character Fic Fest!
This challenge is set up to promote a wider variety of fanfiction that does not focus so much on the epic bromance of Foggy and Matt (as much as we all love it), and give smaller characters their time in the spotlight.
RULES:
The rules of this challenge are as follows.
FAQ:
What do you have against the main characters of the show?
Absolutely nothing. It's just nice to sometimes read fic from a variety of different perspectives, or focus on prompts related to different characters. In fact, the hope is that once there are more stories about them, people may realize how awesome certain characters and be inspired to continue writing and reading about them.
Is this a challenge focused on Genfic?
Not at all! Shipping is completely welcome, as is smut. No genre or type of fic is off-limits as long as it focuses on at least one of the characters on the approved list.
How did you decide which characters to include and exclude from the challenge?
The decision was made based in part of AO3's list of characters by tag when you filter for Daredevil. Any character in the top 10 was excluded (including Claire, Wesley, Fisk, and Vladimir Ranskahov) because they are already being extensively written about. As well, I also left characters like Stick, Vanessa, Marci, and Jack Murdock off the list, because there are a wide variety of fics out there focused on them already. The list of characters to include was compiled using IMDB based on characters who appeared in more than one episode but don't appear in fic as often. I left off certain recurring characters (like Fisk's other bodyguard, Francis) just to ensure that the final list for this challenge had some diversity - the emphasis in the list is on characters of different race, age, gender and perceived attractiveness than are normally heavily featured in fic.
Am I allowed to include the main characters at all in my fic?
You can include other characters, including those not on the list, but the story must be about at least one of the characters you choose from the list. For example, you cannot write a fic about Foggy grieving Mrs. Cardenas' death and submit it to this challenge. That is still technically a story about Foggy. But fics about them interacting or her reflecting on her relationship with him are more than welcome!
The idea is to give the smaller characters their own sense of complexity and agency that doesn't just serve the main characters.
Inspirational Prompt Re-Posts!
Wesley, Fisk. (Pre-Daredevil) Fisk introduces Wesley to his mother.
(Anonymous) 2015-08-09 07:17 pm (UTC)(link)(Pre-Daredevil).
Fisk introduces Wesley to his mother, as an introduction to the family. Wesley, the polite boy that he is, becomes a genuine friend to her.

Santino knows who the Devil is
(Anonymous) 2015-08-09 07:19 pm (UTC)(link)i need something something cute and like santino's outsider pov of whatever is happening with matt in the mask on the news, or Claire checking up on him to make sure he's okay/let him know she's okay(because I'm sure he'd want to know if she got home in one piece after the Russians took her) or maybe even him just taking care of his mom while keeping up with whatever shit is going on out in the streets.
Original Prompt: http://daredevilkink.dreamwidth.org/1296.html?thread=2812432#cmt2812432
Nobu/Matt, captivity, dubcon
(Anonymous) 2015-08-09 07:20 pm (UTC)(link)Nobu wins, but he's impressed by Daredevil, so instead of killing him, Nobu has Daredevil taken away by his men.
Matt wakes up in an unfamiliar place, probably chained down, where his only company consists of his silent guards and visits from Nobu, who is eager to speak to him. With nothing else to distract him but the incredibly distant possibility of escape, Matt starts looking forward to these visits, whether he wants to or not...

Father Lantom vs. Stick
(Anonymous) 2015-08-09 07:21 pm (UTC)(link)Basically Matt has been lacking in decent father-figures all his life and is very lucky to have Father Lantom in his corner.

Matt & Melvin - Designing the Costume
(Anonymous) 2015-08-09 07:22 pm (UTC)(link)Bonus if Melvin misunderstood something horribly and Matt has no idea how goofy it looks until he's in the newspaper and Karen/Foggy make fun of it.

Matt & Foggy (gen or slashy): their relationship seen through Josie's eyes
(Anonymous) 2015-08-09 07:23 pm (UTC)(link)I'd really like to see their relationship through the years seen through Josie's point of view : D it's one of my favorite tropes and this kinkmeme is full of amazing talented people, so I guess I'm gonna leave this here and hope someone likes the idea enough!
Original Prompt: http://daredevilkink.dreamwidth.org/725.html?thread=1267925#cmt1267925
Hoffman/Blake, LITERALLY ANYTHING
(Anonymous) 2015-08-09 07:23 pm (UTC)(link)They go back 30 years, since before the police academy. C'mon. They're antagonists under Fisk's payroll but I just need something, anything with these two. Pretty please?
Original Prompt: http://daredevilkink.dreamwidth.org/1296.html?thread=2290448#cmt2290448
Matt/Foggy, BAMF!Brett + Foggy
(Anonymous) 2015-08-09 07:24 pm (UTC)(link)And so when Brett hears (or witnesses) Foggy hanging around the vigilante - as, you know, "legal counsel" - he's a bit concerned. But knowing that if he tried warning Foggy he would sputter and lie and not take his well-meaning advice, Brett realizes there's no other choice.
Thus, the next time Daredevil hands him over some hog-tired criminal, Brett finds himself giving the vigilante the shovel talk, more or less.
+100 for confused/amused Matt.
+1000 for Daredevil implying him and Foggy are an item, thinking that's what Brett thought, but he actually didn't and now, no, wait no he didn't come prepared for THIS talk.
Original Prompt: http://daredevilkink.dreamwidth.org/725.html?thread=1051605#cmt1051605
Brett/Foggy teenage experimentation
(Anonymous) 2015-08-11 01:47 am (UTC)(link)So Brett and Foggy have canonically been enemies since they were 4, but they don't really seem like enemies at all. My kingdom for some fic about them growing up together and maybe some teenage experimentation??
Melvin Potter, I just want more about him
