Third Harlequin Kradam Fest: Prompt Submission Post

[spikedluv]

Comment here with your prompts for our third Harlequin Kradam Fest.

We will accept prompts through July 5th.

All of the prompts will be collated into a list and posted here at harlequinkradam on July 6th for claiming. Prompts will be available for claiming (and you may post your fanfic or fanart submissions) from July 6th through September 30th.

You may submit:

~general prompts or more specific scenarios;

For example:

General Prompt: marriage of convenience

Specific Scenario: Kris Allen is the son of a wealthy businessman who must marry by his 25th birthday or lose the inheritance he plans to use to fund his own charity. He sees Adam Lambert, a struggling musician, perform one night and is smitten; Kris makes Adam an offer he can’t refuse.

~blurbs off the back of Harlequin romance novels, or blurbs from the back of DVD cases, or scenarios you’ve made up yourself, or mix ‘em up; and

~prompts from the last round (just c&p them into a comment here), whether they were claimed and filled or not.

The only requirements are that the prompt be Kris/Adam and be of a Harlequin nature (which we will interpret broadly). Harlequin is a type of romance that includes everything from traditional to historical, intrigue to supernatural. If you’re not sure what we mean by the term ‘Harlequin’, check out the eHarlequin writing guidelines.

For more information about the Fest please read the rules on the community profile. If your question isn’t answered there you may ask us here at the Q&A post.

Please note: If you plan to post a fic this round that you started for a previous round, please make sure that the prompt you claimed is re-submitted for this round so that you can re-claim it.

Here are several more prompts to get us started:

~Kris Allen signs up for Theater 101 because it’s the only open course that fits his schedule. It’s not long before the professor learns what Kris has always known: he sucks at acting. Kris is handed over to the not so tender mercies of TA, Adam Lambert, who teaches Kris about acting, and a whole lot more.

~Single dad Kris Allen finally bows to the inevitable and hires a nanny to help him take care of his daughter/son. Picturing the staid nanny types who suck all the fun out of life, he tells the service that he wants someone who is imaginative and artistic. When Adam Lambert first appears on his doorstep, Kris isn’t sure he’s the right man for the job, but Adam soon convinces Kris otherwise.

~When photographs of Kris Allen kissing another man are posted on-line he refuses to deny that he is gay. His record company claims breach of contract, but they give Kris a choice: either he will be banned from performing publicly for the remainder of his contract and sued for damages, or he can agree to allow them to sell his contract to Adam Lambert, a man who has made no secret of his desire for Kris.

Now show us what you've got! *g*

[all summaries snagged from eHarlequin]

On his way to becoming the next NASCAR Sprint Cup Series champion, Adam Lambert could have his pick of men. But the top driver is intrigued only by the new waiter in town. What he doesn't know is that the object of his interest is none other than Kris Allen, a world-famous singer and songwriter, now taking a much needed break to work on his music in peace and quiet. The last thing Kris wants is to draw attention to himself by being seen with someone like Adam. Will Adam be able to convince him to give their romance a chance?
[slightly altered summary for: End of the Line, Jean Brashear]

FBI agent Kris Allen knew he'd have a lot to answer for when he bumped into Adam, the boyfriend he'd left behind to complete an undercover mission. Nearly three years had passed since Kris'd last seen him, but Adam was as beautiful as ever — and as angry. Will Kris once again be forced to choose between love and duty, or will he be able to win (and keep) Adam's trust this time?
[slightly altered summary for: Mountain Ranger Recon, Carol Ericson]

Detective Adam Lambert's latest client is impossible to resist. Not only is he just Adam's type, his teary-eyed pleas to prove his former wife was innocent of murder pulled at Adam's hard to reach heartstrings. But before Adam gets a chance to investigate, Kris disappears without a trace. Now, with Katy Allen desperate to find her former husband and clear her name, Adam knows his life will never be the same.
[slightly altered summary for: Her Stolen Son, Rita Herron]

After an injury ended his singing career, Adam Lambert became an event planner. So when a society wedding gives him the chance to make a name for himself, he vows to get the job done without help from anyone — especially quiet but competent butler Kris Allen.
[slightly altered summary for: Her Love Next Door, Mae Nunn]

Adam thought he couldn't wait to get back home for his best friend's wedding, until he gets the news — to research a new TV show, his boss has decided to come with him!

Even though he's had a crush on him for ages, Adam doesn't want Kris Allen with him as his not-date. How will he be able to impress Kris with karaoke as the wedding entertainment? And how is he going to explain to everybody the 'boyfriend' he's been telling everyone about for years barely even knows Adam's name?
