In my defense, the moon was full and I was left unsupervised

[sdk]

Welcome to the Bonfire Night edition of firewhiskeyfic, last one in 2017! We, your Mods - sdk and torino10154, are so glad you could make it. We love everyone tonight. Feel free to friend us on DW. We promise not to stalk you... much. :D

Your challenges for this month are:

Sirius Black (the birthday boy)

Bonfire Night

Full Moon

The Astronomy Tower

"It matters not what someone is born, but what they grow to be."

Incorporate one or more into your fic/art somehow, and you're good to go!

As you know, this is the Official Discussion Post. If you feel like chatting, and we hope you do, pop in here and let us know how it's going.

And just so we're clear, you don't have to write pr0n, though it definitely makes for interesting reading when characters change right in the middle of shagging because you're too drunk to remember who you're writing about. ;) You can write for any fandom (including original), but keep in mind the majority of our players are HP people. Anything goes!

Once you are semi-conscious, send your UNBETA'D UNCORRECTED fic to this email: fwfdrunkmods@gmail.com Trust me, we can tell if you've messed with it, so don't do it, okay?

You will receive an email from us confirming that we got it. If you don't get an email, we didn't get it. Your fics/art will be due by noon on Tuesday, Nov 7th. Voting will begin later that evening and last until Saturday Nov 11th.

HERE IS THE HEADER! You can put this in the email body or the fic body. Whatever!

(please fill this out to the best of your ability. If you're unable, we will try to complete it for you)
<b>Title:</b> <b>Author:</b> <b>I am of legal drinking age in my region:</b> (yes/no) <b>Pairing(s)/Characters/Fandom:</b> <b>Challenge:</b> <b>Summary:</b> <b>Rating/Warnings:</b> <b>Word count:</b> <b>Author's Notes (if any):</b>

In order to make things easiest on your poor, likely hungover mods, please put your DW username and (if you can manage) the title of your fic/art into your subject line or at least somewhere in the body of the email. Thank you!

Please do not discuss your fic/art. You can discuss ideas, drinks, how wasted you are, full moon shenanigans you've gotten up to, best Sirius Black scenes from the books/movies, or whatever floats your boat. Just don't discuss your fic/art. This is an anonymous fest until after the reveal, and we don't want hints being given as to what you're writing about.

Shelly's back to her usual Jack and Coke, thank the goddess, while Torino sips on a hot toddy and tries not to sneeze all over her keyboard. How about you folks?

Let's get your drunk on!

To be clear, I'm shoveling in my dinner as fast as I can so I can get to the drinking. Woohoo!

[lq_traintracks]

This is me right now!

[darkmoore]

Okay wait, what? I just stumbled in here cause yeah, curious and all that cause someone said DRUNK, and here I am, but ... do I get this right? People are getting drunk on purpose and then ... write fic? LOL. OMG.

[sdk]

Yep!! D

[tjs_whatnot]

Wahoooo!

Making my first drink now!

♥

[sdk]

Me too! Whatcha having? :D

[alisanne]

Margaritas are made and I just poured (shoveled) my first one into a 16 ounce glass.
What? I think the less walking back and forth to the freezer the better. *g*

Right, now to open a new doc while I'm still sober enough to do that...

[lq_traintracks]

Wooohooo! I've had those margaritas! I've walked to that freezer! Go, Ali! :D <3

[gin_tonic]

Okay, okay, okay, I have had two ? three ? glasses of beer and am now drinking G&T (of course). I'll be drinking myself through my gin collection tonight. :D But let's call it a "gin tasting". Sounds way classier.

[sdk]

Oooh gin tasting! I like that! :D

[lq_traintracks]

Dinner: scarfed.

Sirius Black playlist: going.

Shot of tequila: downed.

Doc: OPEN.

[sdk]

Oh man, you were prepared! With the playlist!

[torino10154]

I just got home and will be sitting down to play sooooooon!

[sdk]

Yay!!! Get your sneezy drink on!

[kiertorata]

Just took 3 shots!! whoooooo

[alisanne]

Ooh, brave!
What kind of shots?

[tjs_whatnot]

Plan for night:
♥ Drink cocktail and chat here on this post.
♥ Finish drink sprint for 20 minutes
♥ Consume cocktail and chat
♥ Repeat until A) done B) finished alcohol C) passed out

If you don't hear from me after 20 minutes. SEND HELP!

[alisanne]

LOL!
Not sure any of us will be any shape to send help. but...okay! :)

And my vision is getting fuzzy. I should prolly contemplate starting to write something....

[lq_traintracks]

I haven't made any mistakes yet I don't think, so I'm going in for another shot. \o/ Let's get this thing ridiculous dammit!

[tjs_whatnot]

Make Sirius proud!

♥

[darkmoore]

I think if I do that the hardest thing might be the "no editing" part. Cause I kind of edit automatically as soon as my program marks a word as spelled incorrectly. It's ... habit. And yes, I think it might actually even work when drunk or very tired.

I HATE turning in stuff that is not polished so I correct stuff right away.

How am I supposed to keep myself from correcting all those red lines?

[gin_tonic]

Just get drunk and then you don't care. Or you turn off the correction option in your programme. :P

[ruinsplume]

Hi everyone!
I was totally NOT going to play this round. I thought i was too exhausted. Especially after going to see HP sorcerer's stone at this gorgeous old theater with a live symphony orchestra doing the soundtrack! it was soooooo excellent. Nothing like seeing film alone in the living rtoom. anyway I got online and started laughing about the gin flight post and then I looked in the fridge and realized therte was some homemade margarita mix left over from my BIRTHDAY party andnow HERE I AM!!!! HI!!!!!!!!! with a double margarita by my elbow

[torino10154]

YAY!!! So glad you could join us. :D

[ruinsplume]

somebody come talk to me. I just got here and am not drunk enugh to write anything since I have no ideas none zip

[torino10154]

Clearly you need to drink more. *nods*

[shaddyr]

I have:
a) just had FOODS (mmm, sushi and dim sum! Multicultural!)
2) cracked open the wine (picked specifically for this event - Menage a Trois, though not sure if that will inspire anything naughty or just make the room spin
and
iii) WRitiNg NOW!

So, uhm... is it too early to loudly and drunkenly declare, "I love you GUYS!" ? Asking for a friend.

[tjs_whatnot]

I had sushi too! #mindmeld

I love you, man!

[kiertorata]

Is anyone wels just having really bad ideas of lire no ideas alt all?? I tought I was genuously etting drunk really badly and the story would just come to m,e, but it's not!

[kiertorata]

also can't be cothered about spelling mistakes at this point

[gin_tonic]

Can you still ftepo type tipe? without mistakes? I can'T. I'm working hard on not corredcting error.s

[shaddyr]

I leanred last time i have to type in nobte pad because ig I use word or google docs the squigly line tells me and I have to fix but if I DON"R KNOW then it's ok.

[reg_flint]

Heyyy I am just pouring my first rum and eggnog. Siriusly smooth going down. I hope I have enough booze to last me the whole fic, but when drinking it's more like a brain-fart and deal with the shit later.

[ruinsplume]

rum and aggnog? you are brave, man.

[kiertorata]

woooo m y story is suddenly starting to come together. Yay! the power of aclhol!

How's everyone else?

[darkmoore]

[tjs_whatnot]

Your firendly reminder: Don't forget to drink some water from time to time.

[darkmoore]

[lq_traintracks]

[torino10154]

[gin_tonic]

[sdk]

yayyayayayaya

mine finally got good haha. or maybe i just got drunker so i can't tell anmore.

[darkmoore]

Okay so either I alreay have a hangoer or I just got a headache from the cold and the lack of sleep and the two glasses of wine.

but I'm seriously tired and I think I should... and this somehow - the thing I mean. I don'T dare call it story it's rather ... kind of like first grade English calss esntences. And my fingers are not cooperating so good cause I am more tired than drunk and can barely see straight.

Does that still count? Being tired and not drunk I mean I am also kind of sick?

Neverminf I'l finish this ridiculous somthing and then go to bed asap.

maybe I'll skip the pron after all

[kiertorata]

or write really weird first grage english pron :D

[ruinsplume]

I am at over 2000 words!!! I am writing an epic!
Is anyone still here? and awake? I dare not drink an;y more but i have to get toe the finish line.
i ma curius when you get a drink in a bar is it uususualy one shot or two
becuase i have ha d six ?) shots of tequila but am still in reasonalb eshape. I mean i coujldn't drive or anytying but i can carry on a coversation wht my partner and adughter without drooing. drooling.

[kiertorata]

Just sent mine! i started to mysteriously sober up towards the end

2000 words is impressive!! nad withholding conversations with non-drunk peoples is even more so!

[sdk]

[torino10154]

LOLOLOLOL :D
