firewhiskeyficWelcome to the 'Not-So-Dry January' edition of firewhiskeyfic! We, your Mods - sdk and 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
Your challenges for this round are:
Hagrid
Forbidden Forest
Stripped Bare
Cuddling by the Fire
Ice and Snow
“Guests, like fish, begin to smell after three days.”
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 a few 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 Sunday, January 22nd. Voting will begin on January 23rd and last until Friday, January 27th.
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 starting the night with prosecco which was so good on NYE while Torino is trying to decide what to pair with the bottle of coconut rum she got for Christmas!
Let's get our drunk on!

Date: 2023-01-20 10:38 pm (UTC)I've got four shot in me and 400+ words written. So I guess I'm avearaging 100 words per shot. There seesm to be a maximum bult into this equation.
Fun trivia: I can still do math drunk. It's like a party trick. 27 * 11 = 297!

Date: 2023-01-21 05:32 am (UTC)I have tricks.
So I challenge people to give me a two-digit number times 11 and I can get the answer (even drunk) faster than they can type it to verify into their phone and they are then super impressed.
But the trick is actually really easy 27 * 11 = ... 2 + 7 = 9 so you stick a 9 in between the 2 and the 7 and the answer is 297.
45 * 11 = 495 (notice that 4 + 5 = 9)
The "hard" ones are when there is a carry. 48 * 11 = 512 (4 + 8 = 12 so there is a carry and the hundred's place is one more than 4)
If you do math tricks while drunk without explaining there is a trick, it blows people away. (I'm literally paid to outsmart 5th graders. This is my job. Squaring two-digit numbers that end in five is another of my go-to tricks that confuse people.)
