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!

Well, I believe the rule is intoxicated, so...was it a good painkiller? Because you could still be eligible, depending.
Also, many of us fall asleep, just make sure you write something you can send in (unedited) the next day. :)

[darkmoore]

You are aware that you might end up with a bunch of German halfway through? Cause if I really DO get intoxicated I might lose grip of my second language XD

[sdk]

Haha! That'll just make it that more special!

[alisanne]

Dude, some of my previous Firewhiskey fic reads like other languages I don't even speak! Actually, to be clear, no one speaks those languages, so...

But yeah, why not? You may as well play and when you pass out, no worries.
*tempts*

[darkmoore]

LOL, you are one evil person.

Alright I might drink A LITTLE. The painkiller and the cold meds should do the rest. Plus, I'm tired already.

But I'm making no promises. I don't have any plot ideas and god knows ALCOHOL will not help me find them.

[alisanne]

Ahahahahaha! Plot?
Did we not just get through discussing over at the Shoobs how I can barely spell plot? :P
You will fit right in. ;)

[darkmoore]

you plan on going all out PWP then *cheeky grin*

[alisanne]

Maybe. *evil laugh*
Shh! Don't tell the mods I told you. They don't like it when we tell each other what we're writing. *g*

[darkmoore]

Ah, right. Like I couldn't have figured that out once you said you can't even SPELL plot ;) Come on, that's not hard to figure out XD

[gin_tonic]

Just to segway in: That might just happen with me, too. ;) So no worries, let's go Denglish all the way.

[darkmoore]

Ahh I love me my fellow Germans. When I start confusing words it's usually time for me to go to bed. Dear god, my hubby will KILL me. You'll all be responsible!

[gin_tonic]

Ah well, our partners kind of probably maybe knew what they were getting into ... :P Besides, my dad always says that a little cognac goes a long way when you have a cold.

[darkmoore]

LOL maybe I should wake hubby and make him get me the good stuff he's stashed away somewhere the kids can't find it. But ... then he might kill me right away?

[gin_tonic]

If you're really good at hiding a hangover... don't wake him. ;) Then again, the good stuff might equal less of a hangover...

[darkmoore]

I am pretty sure that mixing pain meds, cold meds and ANY kid of alcohol is a BAD IDEA, capital letters. No matter the quality.

I'm not sure I will get drunk enough to write before I fall asleep on you guys.

[alisanne]

Butting in here to say my lips are numb.
Now you can return to your previous condersation. Conversation? Yeah, that. :)

[darkmoore]

Ahh you are getting there, hon. You are getting there. :)

[alisanne]

I'm working on it. Contemplating more margarita....
