No True Pair 2026 Four-Character Mini-Challenge Sign-Ups!

[kalloway]

no_true_pair's 2026 Four-Character Mini-Challenge is open for sign-ups!

no_true_pair is, loosely, a mad-libs-style challenge. You sign up with a list of characters, a set of prompts is posted that uses all the characters in different combinations, and you create works using those characters and prompts.

For example, if your list contained Darth Vader and Mickey Mouse as numbers 2 and 4, there could be a prompt like "2 & 4 go out for coffee" or "4 invites 2 out for dinner, except..." and you'd write Darth Vader and Mickey Mouse going out for coffee, or Mickey Mouse inviting Darth Vader out for dinner and then going from there.

1. Leave a comment with your numbered list of four characters.

As per previous rounds:

• your list can contain characters from one fandom or different fandoms
• you may use your original characters
• you may have more than one list (as many as you like)
• every character in your list will have a prompt with every other one

2. This is a low-pressure challenge. Signing up does not obligate you to create anything.

3. Tell your friends and have fun!

4. If you have any questions, just ask!

5. The Schedule:
Signups Open - NOW!
Prompts Posted ~ March 16th
Posting - March 26th-31st
Amnesty - Thereafter

(Amnesty is currently paused until the end of this round.)

I came by here to add a list of Starfleet Academy characters as well. Good luck!
