30 Day Fanfic Meme - Day 20

20 – Do you ever get bunnied from other people's stories or art in the same fandom?

Sometimes, but really not often. I saw a prompt someone had included in their summary, and the prompt gave me a 'what if' bunny (Deal or No Deal), but it's rare that I get bunnied like that.

Whilst I could write something for a prompt sometimes, I tend to prefer my own plot bunnies - though I think if I was writing atm, I might have been bunnied by some of kanarek13's artwork, it being so stunning! :D

Yeah, your own herd of bunnies would tend to put you off acquiring more from elsewhere!

Note: I have no idea what a collective of bunnies is. Okay, Google gives me a colony plus various other terms. I wonder if it applies to plotbunnies?

Hmm, I'm thinking an 'overload of plot bunnies' might work, lol!! :D :D

[dimity-blue.livejournal.com]

That definitely works! :oD

I've definitely been bunnied by both art and by other stories - but then the entire GDP phenomenon exists in TS and did become a sort of shared universe/related stories situation.

I didn't even think of the GDP! The amount of stories it inspired seems far too large to refer to it as a 'plotbunny'. Maybe a 'plotelephant' or a 'plotmountain', something that suggests massive.

I find other peoples work inspiring...while they don't often prompt a bunny per sey, they do sometimes and quite often they'll help stir the muse.
