'Um ...d'you want to get a coffee?'

Welcome to the Awkward First Date edition of [community profile] firewhiskeyfic! We, your Mods - [personal profile] sdk and [personal profile] 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:

Lavender Brown

Madam Puddifoot's Tea Shop

Dirigible plums

Amortentia

"Oh, to be young and feel love's keen sting."


Quick clarification for newbies: you don't have to use all the prompts--though that does make for a fun fic!--but since one of the categories for voting is "Best Use of Prompt" we do recommend using at least one.

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 midnight on Sunday, February 14th. Voting will begin on February 16th and last until Saturday, February 20th.

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)




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, your favorite Hogwarts classes, best/worst romantic moments from the books/movies, what you'll do if you can ever leave the house again, 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. :)

Like all the best hostesses, we'll both be ducking in and out all evening. /o\ Torino is getting us started before rushing off (returning later with rum) and Shelly will be along in a bit with her usual bottle of Jack. (Don't worry. Not drinking the whole bottle.) How about you folks? What's the drink that's got you through the last year or the one you look forward to having the next time you actually can go to a restaurant or bar?

Let's get our drunk on!

okay since you've mentioned Hawaiian Punch and lower_east_Side and I are talking about drink recipes:

The Donny and Marie: (are you old enough to know what the hell that references?) Southern Comfort, Cranberry juice, orange juice. Tastes exactly like Hawaiian Punch. Very dangerous drink. Will gibe you the headache of the 70's.

i did squeeze a lime in, i must admit.

omg LOVE both those recipes!!! especially am a fan of the remus one, i love a rusty nail (it's like scotch inception haha) and that is a way more interesting variation! i want to try it someday now. the draco one is great too, that would really move on a summer menu honestly.

omg it IS Dumbledore? where does he say that?

sometimes it frustrates me what a good writer JKR is since she turned out to be such a transphobic dick. but that is a very Dumbledore thing to say.

I went through a scotch phase but haven't been able to drink it since the person who turned me on to it dumped me :-/ and also sometimes it tastes too much like licking an ashtray.

The Draco one I think would be really good -- though as you say, it's a summer drink. But hey, it's summer somewhere! Do you have ideas on how to get the jalapeño infused into the drink so that it's really spicy? would you let it sit in the gin for a couple of days or muddle it and strain it or what?

i say make a simple syrup with it, honestly. we used to do a blackberry jalepeno syrup and it could get really spicy, but that back-of-your-tongue spicy.

McDonald's. But specifically old McDonald's when I swear the Big Macs and the fries tasted way better because they weren't trying to pretend they weren't healthy. (I think the fries used to be made with beef tallow instead of vegetable oil. I don't know what they changed about the Big Mac recipe, but it's definitely not the same.)

wow, that sounds delicious. I could see that being an ingredient in the Sirius Black....

Yes you are so right!!! I keep going back occasionally, looking for that deliciousness from my childhood, but it is gone.

I think I'm getting close. (Motivated by the fact that I'm hungry, but I know eating now will sober me up too quickly. I need to write faster so I can snack.)

I have this fantasy that she's actually got unresolved gender identity issues herself and her own fear of herself is making her act the way she does but some day she'll come out as nonbinary or trans or both and recant everything she said tra la la okay it's a fantasy

When you said, "I think I'm getting close" my mind did not immediately go to your fic.
