Challenge/Prompts used: “If anyone told me I’d be waiting in a pumpkin patch…”, Pumpkin Juice, Halloween Sex Toys

Summary: um…genetically altered pumpkins=sex pollen on Halloween on a mission.

Rating/Warnings: There is sexual content but i don’t know that it’s that explicit but i use certain adult words a lot and um this is sex pollen so i’m thinking marture to explicit depending on your milage. Probably best to go with explicit.

Word count: 1,765

( ENTRY #8 )

Title: Things Counter, Original, Spare, Strange
Author:
I am of legal drinking age in my region: Yes, for decades.

Summary: Hella hard to write a summary in the midst of the drunkening. How about if you are FWF participant just go ahead and read it ‘cause you gotta do that to do the voting thing. If you aren’t FWF participant and you feel like you need a summary before trying to read the fic, oh well, do or don’t do, there is no try.
Rating: teen and up
Warnings: no archive warnings apply
Word count: 397
Author's Notes:
In the fic, sneaky mention of HP fandom in acknowledgement of FWF’s roots. In the summary, not so sneaky reference to Star Wars.
Title from "Pied Beauty" by Gerard Manley Hopkins, used under the Fair Use Doctrine and no copyright infringement intended. Fen of due South will understand what Gerard Manley Hopkins has to do with due South fandom.

We'll be watching very closely. CREATORS - DO NOT REPLY TO COMMENTS ON YOUR ENTRY. The voting period is anonymous. You may reply AFTER the reveals.

2. Some of these entries are very NC-17. Please keep this in mind when you click on the link. There will be no anonymous comments - you must have a DW account if you are going to comment.

3. You may only vote once! No voting for your own entry.

Welcome to the 'Shocktober' edition of firewhiskeyfic! We're so glad you could make it.

Your challenges for this round are:

Jack Frost

Haunted House

Pumpkin Juice

Fright

Halloween Sex Toys

"If anyone had told me I'd be waiting in a pumpkin patch on Halloween night, I'd have said they were crazy."

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.

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). 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, October 5th. Voting will begin on October 6 and last until Friday, October 10th.

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 is flying solo tonight--starting with the last of the Pimms. How about you?

Let's get our drunk on!
