[coldboys]

This is for prompts for all things general Polar Explorer RPF.

If you've filled (or started filling) a prompt, please make sure to link it in the comments of the Fills Post. And if you would like to cross-post your fills on AO3, here is the collection!

Under this umbrella you can prompt:

• Madhouse at the End of the Earth/Belgica Expedition
• Heroic Age of Antarctic Exploration - Shackleton, Scott, Amundsen, Mawson
• Andrée Expedition
  
• Karluk Expedition
• etc

Prompts in line with adaptations of Heroic Age stories can also fit here, for example if you want to specifically prompt Hugh Grant!Cherry from The Last Place On Earth getting wrecked (which someone really should). 

No blorbo too obscure for this post! EXCEPT: NO PEARY ALLOWED. God I hate that guy.

Re: Fill: let the river run you through, Shackleton & Scott, t, body horror, death, ghosts

[(Anonymous)]

extremely anonymous anon you have absolutely knocked it out of the park there is simply nobody in the game doing it like you!! your word economy...your ability to set a scene and imbue it with such atmosphere and emotion...i am in awe. i don't know if you've ever written horror before (on account of your being anon) but you have such a talent for it and even with the horror (goodsir voice) this place is beautiful to me, even now. the back and forth between shackleton and not-scott, the contrast between worsley and not-bill, the sheer obstinacy of well you aren't having him. and of course the realization that con would never have asked...oughghgh. to know a man like this even after he's dead. maybe even especially after he's dead. you have slam dunked me into the brine and i may never recover. thank you for this
