'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!

Right! You cheat! ;)

Glad to hear about your family btw.

My dad had the astrazenca vaccine, first dose of, last friday but he's the only one in the family so far. Not expecting to be jabbed myself anytime soon.

That's great that they got both doses of the vaccine, but I'm sorry they're not feeling great from it. My mom's got her first one and did really well with it, for which I'm grateful! I'm going to see if I can get on a list?? I've been told I might be eligible already, being a 'public-facing' worker, or something like that?

Heyyyyy! I'm not drinking yet (will probably start in a couple hours, which is 6pm for me), but I bought a nice bottle of pinot noir specifically for this. There are snow flurries and it's very, very cold, so I'm just going to get under a blanket here in my writing chair when the time comes and write the words. \o/ And probably get up and dance here and there, because that's what I do with a couple, three, four glasses of wine in me. ;P

Thanks so much for running the fest again! <3

Thank you for continuing to run firewhiskeyfic! I have to "abstain" this time because I'm currently writing fic for a ficathon that has a Sunday deadline and if I drunkenly stagger away from it to write something else I risk missing the deadline for finishing the WIP.

Looking forward to drinking and writing with all y'all another time!

I think t hat's the lack of spellchecking rather than the drinking btw

I have booze. I have labeled my file.

[personal profile] oldtoadwoman 2021-02-12 10:15 pm (UTC)(link)

I haven't started to write, but I have started to drink!

A friend actually donated some old booze to the cause (she's not much of a drinker). I have a bottle of champagne which I don't like so I'm mixing it with pomegranate-flavored Crystal Light because that's how I roll. I also have some frozen berries that are now marinating in a mixture of champagne and blueberry wine.

I have named the file. (I feel like I'm cheating slightly by naming the fic before I've got a proper buzz on.) And I pasted the prompts at the bottom of the document in the hopes that I'll remember to work them in somehow.
