To Harry Potter - the boy who lived!

[sdk]

Welcome to the July 2017 Harry Potter 20th Anniversary 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.

Your challenges for this month are:

Harry Potter

Mirror of Erised

Room of Requirement

Anniversary

"What do you mean, I'm not brave in bed?"

Incorporate one or more into your fic/art somehow, and you're good to go!

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, m'kay?

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 noon on Monday, July 24th. Voting will begin later that evening and last until Saturday July 29th at midnight.

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:</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 or LJ 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 scene in the books, what the movies got right (or wrong), 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.

Shelly's starting off with Redd's Apple Ale while Torino will be arriving late but has gin chilling. How about you folks?

Let's get your drunk on!

HI, everyone! Is anyone still here? I just got here. I wasn't going to play, but am feeling much, much better than I was this morning, when I was weepy and writer's blocked. Lucky for me the block went away and I finished a scene on a WIP that was dogging me, and then had a drink with my partner (we, I drank, they sat there and watched me). We had a great conversation and I ended up writing a poem that has the words "feminist" and "cock" prominently featured, so you know that's a winner, right? Anyway, I appear to be way too sober. I'm having a second drink just now, and have to see what the prompts are. Did anyone else just arrive?
Say hi to me!

Also, this is really the perfect introvert's party. You get to talk only when you want to, there's plenty of booze, and when it gets to be too much social stimulation, you can retreat into your porn. That is really my Platonic IDEAL of a social event.

[alisanne]

Hey, hon! Welcome! *hugs*
And yay that you came to play.

I am still drinking, even though my fic (such as it is) is done.
And yes, I agree. This is the best party for those of us who need to step away for some alone time on occasion. <3

[ruinsplume]

Hiiii! and congratulations on finishing!

[alisanne]

<3
Thanks!

[sdk]

Still here! *waves* Glad you decided to come and play and yes, drink more! i'm doing okay on the drinking. not so hot with the actual writing. lolol.

you should work that poem in! Or wait, that might give it away. haha. Still, sounds like an awesome poem! :D

[ruinsplume]

Well, I can promise you "cock" will get worked in, FOR SHURRR. Feminism, maybe not so much.

[evandar]

Welcome! Welcome to the perfect introvert party where we all drink alone and write our porn and then giggle in the commentary. Glad you could make it!

[kiertorata]

Hiiiieee! Awesome. Write something, it'll be great!

(i just Finished mine!)

TMI ahoy!

[songquake]

I WANT TO READ THAT POEM. PLEASE?

Because it sounds like a masterpiece, and even though it was written drunk, it's not your su mission, wo you can share, right???

I was going ot sya that I'm typing drunker than I am, but then I started writing a run-on sentence aobut the compter correcting some of my typos, aso I decied maybe I am drunk enough.

WHat are the prompts again?

And I agree about the Introverts' Party. Yes. THough I kidn of wish there were optional inperson orgies too. Not because I want to be pleasant with a lot of people but because I miss sex with other hmans.

Re: TMI ahoy!

[ruinsplume]

Ahaaha yes, that would be a great addition. An orgy room where you could mess around but hten as soon as you wanted to you could just get up and leave and hide again. There would be enough other people that no one wold be all hey, you can t' just...

i will send you the poem when i am sober again but you have to promoise not to publish it because i"m really going to send it out (i do a poetry thing in real life, at least theoretically).

Re: TMI ahoy!

[songquake]

Please! and I can keep secrets good. *nods* Seriously, it's an occupational requirement.

I can be reached at songquake at gmail dot com. Thanks! lookingforward!

Re: TMI ahoy!

[ruinsplume]

Okay awaesome! I have to type it up, it's in anotebook, hence the can't do it right now. It's all i cna do to stay halfway on target with this fic. 1100 words and we're into the grinding, but stil mostly dressed.

Re: TMI ahoy!

[songquake]

don't think I have that many words yet, but I dont' know.... I hate the trackpad mouse because it makes counting actual worxs hard, but includikng the header (which I've filled out part of) I'm at 653. And I might lose interest soon. Or get really filty, It's kind of a toss=up.

I have no hopes for anything but making people laugh at my tpypes, really. My masterpieces aren't really good fiction ehre. But fun to read? Maybe? yes!

Re: TMI ahoy!

[ruinsplume]

GET REALY FILTHY. That is not even a question.

Re: TMI ahoy!

[songquake]

I failed at filthy. Alas. Maybe I'll write a filthy sequel when sober.

[torino10154]

You are so right! It is ideal. No wonder I love it so much. LOL

<3

[ruinsplume]

It makes me want to hae an IRL cocktaial party where everyone brings a book. and when it gets to be too much, or the smalltalk is like argh enouf i't s perfectly acceptable to just go sit ain a corner and read.

[torino10154]

Wouldn;t that be awesome? Wow. Excellent idea.

[lq_traintracks]

Yaaaay! I'm so glad you made it! I'm done writing and already sobering up here, although at one point I had had 4 shots and 4 beers and didn't remember what I'd written for several k-worth of story. O_o

I'm off to bed in a sec. I just had to check the thread first to see who might be a late-comer! :D

[ruinsplume]

I ended up having a great afternoon, did a ton of writing and got in a way better mood! oh my fic for this though...

good for you for staying awake long enough to get sober...or sober ish? Sleep well, my friend!
