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!

After years and years and YEARS of doing my best to hand in the best work I possibly can so on one will realize that I am not a native speaker ... and then this. *snort*

This is what I've come to. *sighs*

Correcting stuff is second nature. I wish I was better prepared and less sick ... I think I might have just gotten completely wasted and enjoyed the heck out of it.

XD

[gin_tonic]

Next time, you'll have more time to prepare. :D That includes prepping alocohol and telling people/family you won't be available for the night/the next day. For now, do your best. Or worst? :P

[darkmoore]

Oh god this is such a bad idea. I promised my 9 year old to study with her tomorrow. She has a test on Monday and seriously, I can not be hung over for that. I sorta kinda should have thought about that before I got myself a second glass of wine, should I?

[gin_tonic]

A bit. Maybe. Though ... what kind of test? Are 9 year olds doing complicated stuff nowadays? With the help of some (a litre) of coffee you might be good?

I mean, I think I'd manage math until at least 6th grade. Maybe.

[darkmoore]

Well. Sachkunde.

"Hessen"

Flüsse, Gebirge, Orte, Landkreise, Regierungsbezirke, kreisfreie Städte, Landschaftskarte beschriften ... Stuff like that.

Add to that that she is severely dyslexic and you have a day of fun ahead.

[gin_tonic]

Hessen! I used to live there for a couple of years! Frankfurt, to be exact. Though I have to admit that everything that goes beyond "Stadt Land Fluss" is probably already out of my league.

Sounds like you'll do need a good, strong cup of coffee tomorrow, though.

[darkmoore]

No kidding. Especially since her notes will be next to useless. She has this work sheet it says something like:

"Hessen hat viele Große Städte, schreibe die drei größten auf, beginne mit der größten, schreibe Einwohnerzahl auf"

She wrote "Berlin, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Niedersachsen" and her teacher put a "toll" stamp beneath it. *headdesk*

[gin_tonic]

Wow. Um. Great teacher?

In my, very not school-acceptable, experience it should be Frankfurt during working week, Frankfurt on the weekened and ... some city in Hessen. Darmstadt? Maybe? I've lived there and that's about all i can name.

[darkmoore]

That's fine I will have to look it up, too. But I suspect Kassel and Wiesbaden may be among them. Maybe. Probably? Too tired to care right now

[gin_tonic]

oh yes, Wiesbaden. That sounds about right.

But how did it get to be half past one?

[darkmoore]

No fucking clue. But I has words. I think. But I'm not quite sure what I wrote. Somewhere between that second glass of wine and more cold meds I lost track of waht littel plot there was.

And I think I may have mixed up some characters.. I know there was a werewolf in Hp somewhere ...

[gin_tonic]

I know that I have porin! PRON PORN. No poilers though.

[darkmoore]

What is there to spoil. It's fukcing
