"They run off eckeltricity, do they?"

[torino10154]

Getting us started a few minutes early!

Welcome to the Dad Bod 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:

Arthur Weasley

Ottery St Catchpole

Misuse of Muggle Artifacts

Plugs

Tinker

NEW - Dad

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. Also, we added 'Dad' as one of the prompts to help with anyone not doing Harry Potter. LOL In future we will try to have 2-3 prompts each round that are not HP-specific.

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. Please do not discuss your fic/art. You can discuss ideas, drinks, how wasted you are, your favorite Hogwarts classes, best/worst 'Dad' moments from the books/movies, what you'll do if COVID is ever actually over, 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. :)

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 Monday, January 24th. Voting will begin on January 25th and last until Saturday, January 29th.

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/Prompts used:</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!

Torino is getting us started before rushing off (returning shortly 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're out with family or friends?

Let's get our drunk on!

And then it seemed like a good idea to slice open and eat an avocado. Yeah, ever do that while intoxicated? Cool that I still have ten digits after that.

snacks

[oldtoadwoman]

I decided that I needed to make scramble eggs. I accomplished this without incident, but about halfway through my roommate walked into the kitchen and expressed mild horror that I thought I was capable of operating the stove. I needed scrambled eggs!

[ride_4ever]

Just for the record: my spelling and punctuation don't tend to suffer from inebriation -- don't anyone judge me for failing to generate a lot of drunken typos. LOL.

*goes to mix my next Moscow Mule*

[glittering_git]

SAME ?HERE!! (shes says making horrible typos lol) but my doc give me a red squiggly line and I hate it so I correct it!)

[glittering_git]
