“Whoops - My wand is a little over excited!”

[torino10154]

Welcome to the 'Birds and Bees' 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:

Gilderoy Lockhart

Sex Ed

Honey

Birds of a Feather

Well-Bred

Total Eclipse (of the Heart)


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, April 14th. Voting will begin on April 15 and last until Friday, April 19th.

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 plans to start with a Malibu Bay Breeze while Shelly is the designated driver tonight! ;)

Let's get our drunk on!

Hello hello! How is everyone tonight?

[lightofdaye]

all the better for FWF? lol.

[torino10154]

And what are we drinking tonight?

[lightofdaye]

the same thing we drink every night! Or rather very firewhiskey, Rum and coke.

Proper GB coke from tescos this time. Not the imported polish cans from the corner shop.

Well i say it's rum but says "Captain Morgan original Spice Gold Spirit drink" so i don't know if it's legally rum? it does say caribbean rum with spice on a different part of the bottle tjough.

[torino10154]

I was going to google the rum, try to figure out what it is. Get to the Captain Morgan page and it wants my birthday and oh just never mind.... But it does look like rum as far as I can see.

[corvidology]

G&Ts my standard tipple!

Hey, I need that quinine for health purposes, yes.

[torino10154]

Kinda like how an apple a day keeps the doctor away!

[ride_4ever]

Yays! You got here! *waves drunkenly*

[ride_4ever]

Hi, daye! Good to see you here again!

[lightofdaye]

*waves* yo! hope you're having a good time. Alas timezones means i'm just topping up on water before turning in

[ride_4ever]

*waves back*

See you here tomorrow?

[a_belladonna]

While waiting for the post to come up (the official starting time is 11PM for us Europeans), I managed to finally reply to a bunch of comments on my fics over at AO3.
Am on my second glass of mead. :)

[lightofdaye]

Only 10PM for this former european! (alas by that I mean a Brit)

[torino10154]

Well, that's a good thing to have done! You deserve a drink or three for your efforts.

[a_belladonna]

Have just made me a caiprinha! :D (The "Dawn Special" will also make an appearance, I promise!)

[torino10154]

Oh nice! I just started my first drink. Feeling good... LOL

[ride_4ever]

Hi, bella! Good to see you here again!

[a_belladonna]

You too! But it's getting a bit late here, so I better crawl off to bed. :)

[corvidology]

A bit annoyed, tbh. I'd cleared the time to be here tonight and then... well, stuff happened.

I still hope to be around some to enjoy a tipple with the crowd but I don't know if there'll be time to write.

Still, happy to 'see' all your shining faces!

[lightofdaye]

oh that's a shame. Well there's always next time.

[corvidology]

I had it marked on my calendar and everything! *shakes little sober fist*

[torino10154]

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that! But it does happen to the best of us. :/

Definitely good to just have a chat though if writing isn't possible.

[corvidology]

It's so annoying.

Maybe I'll be able to sneak back in later...

[torino10154]

*fingers crossed*

[songquake]

Same. I’ll probably be back in 3-4 hours 😭
