Ready? Ready....

Welcome to the 'It's 5 o'clock Somewhere' 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 today. Feel free to friend us on DW. We promise not to stalk you... much. :D

Putting this note at the top: This round is a bit different. A marathon rather than a sprint. The pace will probably be a little slower, less intense than our usual events. Hopefully, someone will be around when you arrive but don't despair if it's quiet at times throughout the day.

Your challenges for this month are:

Madam Rosmerta and/or Aberforth Dumbledore

Hog's Head

Marathon

Insomnia

Forced Proximity

One Too Many


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. We 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 actors or musicians, the state of the world (a nice, safe topic LOL), 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 though we're getting more diversity, we're still fairly HP-focused. 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, July 4th. Voting will begin on July 5th and last until Saturday, July 9th.

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!

Torino and Shelly both plan to be around for most of the day though we will be popping in and out as required by that dastardly fiend, Real Life. BOO! Also, to make sure we don't get alcohol poisoning. And perhaps for a nap. LOL

Let's get our drunk on!

mod question re: deadline

[personal profile] ride_4ever 2022-07-02 08:30 pm (UTC)(link)
I thought the time limit was 48 hours from 12 Noon EDT (11:AM my local Chicagoland time), but if the deadline is midnight EDT on July 4th that's actually a bit longer....

I'm not always good at these time zone conversions, and the alcohol does NOT IMPROVE that.

Believe me, this is NOT something I want to win! :D

My family find it hysterical that the only kid who even finds England to hot in the summer ended up living in The South (TM).

There was talk about playlists earlier. You can always go with Korpiklaani, they have a lot of (fairly jolly) songs about alcohol/partying. (Steer clear of some of their other songs, unless you want to feel the Finnish-Ugric melancholy to its full extent)

In chronological order (oldest to newest):

- Beer beer
- Happy little boozer
- Let's drink
- Nordic feast
- Shall we take a turn?
- Vodka
- Juodaan Viinaa
- Bring us pints of beer
- Tequila
- Viinamäen Mies/A man with a plan

I guess Ievan Polkka also is quite festive. And song 1-5 on Tervaskanto are bound to make a party (at least if you like folk metal...)

There's also Alestorm with songs such as Keelhauled, Drink, Magnetic North, Mexico, Alestorm, Fucked With An Anchor, Shit Boat (No Fans) and Pirate Metal Drinking Crew.

All of the above is metal, I should probably add (but definitely of the lighter kind)

Still haven't written one single word of fic tonight, haha

I have 555 words written. (Exactly, for real) But it hasn't begun to make sense yet and I'm not optimistic. Zero prompts achieved so far.

Okay and this double entendre reading lets me know I'm talking to a fellow English person even if I am stuck on the wrong side of the pond. :D

I’m terminally American and “whip it out” seems plenty suggestive to me.

What's interesting is that it seems that tradition began in Roman times (think of "Cicero" which actually means "chickpea" and which might have related to him having a wart).

Also I read recently that there is a regional difference, in that the scribes in southern Italy wrote the surnames in singular (ending in -o) while the scribes in the North wrote them in plural (ending in -i). Of course, with the migration from the South to the North following WWII there are now North-Italians with surnames ending in -o.

I'm just a Scandinavian with a bog-standard patronymic surname too, haha.
