Second Harlequin Kradam Fest: Prompt Submission Post
Comment here with your prompts for our second Harlequin Kradam Fest.
We will accept prompts through January 4th.
All of the prompts will be collated into a list and posted here at
harlequinkradam on January 5th for claiming. Prompts will be available for claiming (and you may post your fanfic or fanart submissions) from January 5th through March 31st.
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.
ETA:
~Prompts should be Kris/Adam only. Please do not submit prompts requesting Kris/Katy/Adam or Kris/other or Adam/other.
~No crossover prompts allowed. (You may including other pairings, including crossover RPS pairings, in your fic so long as Kris/Adam is the main pairing, but we'd like to keep the focus of the comm, and therefore the prompts themselves, on Kris and Adam.)
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.
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.
~Kris Allen is forced to approach Adam Lambert, King of the Vampires in Los Angeles, California to request a favor. Adam, attracted to Kris, grants the favor on the condition that Kris spend one night with him. Kris agrees and earns the favor, but Adam is unable to stop thinking about him after their single night of passion. Adam determines to find him and make Kris his . . . permanently.

A Man For All Seasons
Kris Allen's Christmas List
1. Get a roommate so he can afford his mortgage after broken engagement.
2. Check! His old family friend Adam Lambert needs a room. So what if he's been his longtime crush?
3. Ramp up his home-business success.
4. Oops. He works so much that Adam presents him with a 12 Days of Christmas charity auction dating package—just to get him out of his hair!
5. Okay, get a move on with twelve surprisingly fun dates.
6. Hmm. Start to see Adam as pretty hunky…and living under the same roof.
7. Wow. Kiss Adam. Get hot 'n' heavy under the tree one night!
8. Start to believe in holiday magic…
9. …until Adam breaks his heart again.
10. Make a new Christmas list. Well, maybe after unwrapping Adam just one more time….

His Christmas Virgin
Adam Lambert is a man renowned for being arrogant and seemingly emotionless, both inbusiness and in his private life. He never combines work and pleasure, and steers clear of any guy who doesn't play by his rules…
Rule 1: He doesn't bed virgins.
Rule 2: He doesn't do Christmas.
Kris Allen loves the festive season, and he's as pure as the snow falling outside Adam's window. But by Christmas Day he might well have Adam breaking every rule in his book!
(lololol I know)

Private Parts (LMAO)
Subject: Adam Lambert. Intense—and intensely sexy—businessman. He never mixes business and pleasure…until he meets his hunky new lawyer!
Object: Kris ALlen. Hotshot attorney. Willing to do anything to save his family from ruin…no matter how devastating the cost!
Situation: They're fighting to rescue an economically beleaguered town…right before Christmas. They're also having mind-blowing sex that's so steamy they can hardly be in the same room without ripping off each other's clothes!
Unexpected maneuver: Adam discovers Kris betrayed him…in business and in pleasure. Only one victor will emerge in this new personal battle…unless the spirit of the holidays inspires them to find a way they can both win—over and over again….

Nobody in Good Riddance is wondering how world-class chef Kris Allen ended up running the local diner. No, but everybody's dying to know the identity of the mysterious, sexy stranger who's eyeing him like he's scrumptious crème brûlée…
Travel journalist Adam Lambert loves coming across the unusual—and the annual Good Riddance Christmoose Parade definitely fits the bill! But his biggest surprise is Kris! When they finally lure each other into bed, the sex is better than chocolate. Way better!
But Kris has a secret…and a complicated, dangerous past. Worse yet, when he discovers the truth about Adam, he might never be allowed to sample his delicious goods again. And with a man like Kris, one taste just isn't enough….

Unexpectedly homeless for the festive season and exhausted from transforming the penthouse of the hotel where he works into a dazzling winter wonderland, chambermaid Kris Allen secretly sleeps over. Woken by an outrageously sensual kiss, Kris feels his body come alive…until he realizes his seducer is Adam Lambert, his dangerously attractive new boss!
This Christmas, it's imperative that Adam's reputation appear spotless—but innocently enticing Kris is a temptation he can't resist! Their scorching chemistry leads to twelve nights of endless pleasure. But will it last once the decorations come down?

When renowned international playboy Adam Lambert invites shop assistant Kris Allen to join him for dinner, how can he refuse? After all, he's an ordinary guy and chances like this don't come around very often!
Throwing caution to the wind, unworldly Kris is completely at Adam's mercy before he knows it. He finds himself agreeing to be his "mistress" for Christmas…. But will an unexpected gift make this temporary festive arrangement last a lifetime?
