Wow. I had some great entries for the Angsty April Fic Fest.

rose_in_texas wrote a Supernatural that had character death, but OH, my word. If you're a fan of the show, you need to read this. So good. And eustacia_vye28 wrote a heart-wrenching Firely fic with River/Jayne. Filia_umbrae came in with a last minute Temperance Brennan is an idiot for not laying Booth on her desk and Read more... )

firefly, bones, contest, supernatural, hp

Well, I may be able to write you a ficlet! (And if by some chance I win, Best Buy >>>> itunes. I'm one of those rare souls that hates Apple and i-anything)

I'll just list what I usually write, and you can either throw down a mess of prompts so I play mix and match, or just prompt the one you'd rather see.

HP: D/G, M/K, R/P
Firefly: R/J, S/K (anyone, really, but I have those pairing voices down the best)
Avatar: the Last Airbender: Zuko/Katara or Sokka/Suki
Mirrormask: Helena/Valentine
Supernatural brofic or casefic, but it would be EARLY in the show, since I haven't seen past Season 2 yet. ^^;
Tin Man: DG/Cain, Azkadellia/Zero

There's prolly others I could do, but that's off the top of my head right now. :)

Cool icon!

Ooooh, okay, let's have D/G or R/P... with a prompt of water.

HEE! Exciting.

Oh look! Fic for you!

Cross posted to FIA and AO3 as well. Once the plot stopped wriggling around, it was lots of fun to write. Hope you enjoy!

April's over? When the heck did that happen?

Poo. Really meant to enter.

Congrats to Leigh.

Hmm. I'm totally game. I'll keep it all challenge'y by letting you pick the prompt and HP pairing. Feel free to make the prompt as detailed as you'd like. I enjoy trying to figure out how to make it all work.

(Also, I loved that piece by Leigh, too)

Hmmm.

I'm totally getting a puppetmaster high, I'll have you know.

Can I have either D/G or R/A with a prompt of.... sunshine!

Oh Carrie, thank you! I really didn't think you'd like it because of the death and all (and I'm sorry it made you teary!), but I'm glad you liked it! I wrote a sequel of sorts for sortinghatdrabs, but luckily, it's not nearly as angsty!

I think you have my Mississippi address, so let me know if that's the one you have (as I have moved!).

And I'm game for this month's challenge. Like Elle, I'll let you pick prompt and pairing! :D

Thank you again! I'm still grinning like mad, and I'm not gonna lie, I'm kinda in shock!

Yes, I have the Mississippi one.

Your pairing for May is.... Castle/Beckett (I'm working on yours right now) with a prompt of "coffee."

You didn't say what you liked! Favorite scent from Bath and Body Works? Have a look see. http://www.bathandbodyworks.com/category/index.jsp?categoryId=3157625

Okay, I'll e-mail you the new one.

Castle/Beckett... I'll give it a shot. Just keep in mind that this'll be my first foray into fandoms other than HP (not counting the angel!fic plot bunny that's been lurking for SPN). I shall try and do this noble pairing justice (and maybe I'll lock them in a closet together).

And hrm... Cotton Blossom! :D

So.

Bath and Body Works, man. You can't trust them. I'm still pissed from 1993 when they discontinued grapefruit. I worked there when I was in college for 2 years and it's like they change things on a whim.

Anyhow, I was in the store the other day and they've replaced "Cotton Blossom" with "Sea Island Cotton." The wordsmith working the floor said that the new scent is just like cotton blossom but, and I quote, "More."

So I bought it, but she said when you get it, if "more" ain't your thing, you can exchange it for anything else in the store that is more your style. So I'll be boxing that up and sending it out tomorrow. The bath bombs might take a few more weeks; just think of this as the contest prize that keeps on giving!

Ooh, I'll try! How about Draco/Ginny?

YAY! Your prompt is... the infirmary. :D

D/G, please. My urge to write has been sorely lacking lately, but maybe your prompt will inspire me (no guarantees, however!). So please give me something good! :)

How about this?

Done! I posted it on FIA and on a href="http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6002901/1/"> FFN. I hope you enjoy it!
