firewhiskeyficWelcome to the Awkward First Date edition of firewhiskeyfic! 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:
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!

Date: 2021-02-13 03:24 am (UTC)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.

Date: 2021-02-13 03:47 am (UTC)you know, she couldn't shut up even before all the transphobia started. Remember those comics of her popping up at inopportune moments like at someone's funeral and saying things like, "Neville's patronus was lice!"

Date: 2021-02-13 05:56 am (UTC)When I got the idea for this fic a few days after the prompt was posted, I tried to research stuf f so I'd be ready... and it was so hard sorting out book canon fro movie canon from random-crap-JRK-had-said and I eventually gave up so it's all kind of a semi-canon muddle.

Date: 2021-02-13 03:46 am (UTC)I googled all the prompts yesterday to make sure I understood the references and this line is from one of the movies so you don't have to have any icky JRK feelings about it. :-)
