firewhiskeyficWelcome to the Spring Fling 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:
Pansy Parkinson
April Showers
Greenhouse 3
Wolfsbane
Under the Stars
Bird's Nest
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. From now on, 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, your love/hate relationship with the change of the season, plans you may have been putting off for the last 2+ years, 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 Sunday, April 24th. Voting will begin on April 25th and last until Friday, April 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)
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!
Shelly is getting us started with a nice bottle of Prosecco and Torino is chatting for a bit but not drinking until later as she's double-booked herself. Hooray! 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!
*Yes, this is the only inoffensive Pansy Parkinson quote we could find. Possibly why we've both embraced fanon Pansy!

Date: 2022-04-22 09:00 pm (UTC)When I get home I'll be starting on a bottle of wine that has fannish meaning for me (fancon-related). More details about that after I get home.
ILEITB!

Date: 2022-04-22 09:04 pm (UTC)I started drinking early (early wrok day tomorrow) so I'm almost done already!!!
This is all the rum I had left from the last round of Firewhiskey. Good thing I bought more booze, this turned out to be only about three shots' worth.
(The tall glass is just diet cola to get the rum down.)

see you soon!

Date: 2022-04-22 09:25 pm (UTC)That’s actually a pre-drinking whine. I’ll get to the drunken bit in a couple of hours.

Date: 2022-04-22 09:33 pm (UTC)First selling books at a reception. My boss had ordered 30 of the new books and 10 of the author's previous book, thinking it would be more than enough.
When the dust settled 3 hours later, I'd sold all 30, the 3 we had in stock at work, at least 10 of the author's own stock and 5 of the previous book.
Then there was a board meeting at my housing cooperative (I'm the chairman).
I've had my first rum & coke, and am listening to whatever psychobilly Spotify is throwing at me. Warmed up by reading a Wout van Aert/Mathieu van der Poel-fic and discussing another cyclist's muscle tone with a friend on Messenger.
This night (it's already half past 11 in the evening here) is going to be interesting!

Date: 2022-04-22 09:35 pm (UTC)Tonight I will once again be drinking bourbon: some fancy-ish version of Maker’s I think (need to check the label). This is a different bottle than I used the last time we drunk!wrote. That was a giant bottle of Bulleit that had lasted almost a year and a half.
Anyway, I need to get thinking of what Pansy can get up to in Greenhouse 3. Or something else. I haven’t adequately pregamed this fic.

Date: 2022-04-22 09:41 pm (UTC)I always think I'm going to pregame and then never get around to it. Even though I know the prompts early, LOL. I'm sure you'll come up with something (or someone??) interesting for Pansy to do though. :D

I got my Covid booster this morning so I'm waiting to see if I'm going to start running a fever like I have every time before about 8-12 hours later.
Meanwhile, MG is making margaritas and steak for dinner so I know what foundation drink I'm going with. If fever hits, I'll probably be good to go after that! :D
Anyway, its 5:45pm here so I have a while to go.
Good drinking... erm, luck everyone!

Date: 2022-04-22 09:48 pm (UTC)Good to have the wine chilling already though. Intentionality is always good!

Date: 2022-04-22 09:49 pm (UTC)I pondered the prompts and had the basic set up in my head the optimistic hope that drunk-me would be able to fill in the gaps in between. (Drunk-me has not, in fact, filled in any gaps. I've probably added new ones that I haven't noticed.)
So several hours into this (with at least five shots in me... I stopped counting after five), I'm just kind of staring at the story going, ::poke:: ::poke:: "Are you done? You don't smell done yet."

Re: woot!!!!
Date: 2022-04-22 09:52 pm (UTC)I have to be sober and functional by 8:30AM Saturday, so I needed to get my drink on early. (This responsible-adulthood crap sucks.)
