Valentines Bingo Fest

[ysabetwordsmith]

The Valentine's Day Bingo Fest will run from February 1-28. The theme is Valentine's Day and it spans both love and loss. To mix things up a bit, I've done two things:

1) Prompts are divided into several groups. Romantic prompts feature positive relationships based on sweet affection, but don't have to involve sex. Erotic prompts are the carnal and kinky ones. Heartbroken prompts are about lost relationships and other things going wrong. Platonic prompts are for asexual, solo, or family inspiration. You Are prompts express how a partner is perceived.

2) A 3x3 card is offered in each category, in hopes of making it easier to blackout.

Feel free to mix and match the prompts, though, if you want a more diverse card. You can make a standard 5x5 or whatever you want. Creative interpretation is encouraged, and you don't have to stick to a category just because you're using its prompts. Sometimes it's fun to make ordinary things sexy or erotic things platonic.

3) Challenges!  These are prompts that make the bingo card more exciting.

=Multiple Orgasms= combine scenes about 2+ adjacent prompts,
=All-Nighter= double the fill size, 
=Cheater= write cheater and cheated from prompts on opposite sides of this square, 
=Aces High= turn adjacent romantic prompt platonic, 
=Mirror= write adjacent prompt as positive and negative in different characters
