"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!

YAY What are we drinking tonight?

[glittering_git]

This is an IMPORTANT question!!

[sdk]

Ahaha the most important question!!

[sdk]

I do have my bottle of jack! But I also have a bottle of Prosecco chilling in the fridge too... decisions, decisions. Are you opening up that Moonshine?

[mywitch]

I've got my scotch poured, my monkey and skull companions gathered 'round and I'm ready to get bizzy with a dad bod!

[sdk]

Oooooooh nice!!!

[mywitch]

Thanks! I'm on my second one and can still type so... better get some more in me

drunk monkey

[oldtoadwoman]

That monkey is oddly terrifying.

Re: drunk monkey

[mywitch]

It is! I got it when George W was still prezident cuz it looked like him and that cheered me up. But he is full of nickels now so I'll keep him around till I smash him with a hammer some desperate day

[walgesang]

Fantastic picture! I'm such a lightweight that if I drank anything but cider I'd be in bed in an instant. I aaaaam an old dad.

[veelawings]

I have some pineapple cider to keep me company tonight!

[sdk]

Oh I've never had pineapple cider! Sounds tasty!

♥

[oldtoadwoman]

That sound delicious!

[ride_4ever]

Pineapple hard cider? Wow, I did not even know that's a thing! (Would go over big in "Psych" fandom.)

[veelawings]

It's everywhere in Texas! One of the local breweries makes it!

(also, not sure if you like Drarry, but since I'm assuming you like psych, there's an HP Psych AU here if that interests you.)

[walgesang]

That sounds fantastic! Yay cider buds!

something called The Kraken

Re: something called The Kraken

[sdk]

Oooooooo that looks fancy!

Re: something called The Kraken

[dani_meows]

Pretty bottle! 94 proof nice!

Re: something called The Kraken

[ride_4ever]

Starting with Moscow Mules. I'll see what else after four of those....

Re: something called The Kraken

[torino10154]

My mom LOVES it. It's a bit strong for me generally.

Re: something called The Kraken

[mywitch]

YESSSSSSS

Re: something called The Kraken

[corvidology]

Where has the rum gone?

[glittering_git]

I am here and ready to DRINK! (I mean write 😂) I'm starting with a pickleback!

[corvidology]

Pickleback? Is that a euphemism. <-- evidence the booze hasn't really kicked in yet.
