5th Annual Numb3rs Slash Ficathon: Trading Places (aka Role Reversal)
Welcome to the 5th Annual Numb3rs Slash Ficathon!
The Ficathon is a celebration of the return of Numb3rs and has purposely been timed to take place over hiatus so that a) we all have a reason to live until the new season starts *g*, and b) the posting of the fic will coincide with the premiere of the sixth season.
This year’s theme is Trading Places (aka Role Reversal). How will that work? It’s easy, you just choose two characters and reverse their roles. Maybe Charlie is the FBI agent and Don’s the math genius, or Charlie’s the student and Amita his thesis advisor, or Megan is the elder Eppes and team leader while Don’s the profiler, or David’s the spy and Colby feels betrayed . . .
You do not have to reverse the roles of the characters you will be slashing; you may choose any two characters to ‘role reverse’. For example, reverse Colby and Amita, and have Charlie struggle with his attraction to his grad student Colby Granger.
You may stick pretty closely to canon events otherwise, or go wild and crazy and make your AU even more, uh, AU-ish. (Say, make Edgerton a werewolf. *coff* If you wanted to. No pressure. *g*)
Dates:
1. Sign-ups will remain open until Friday, July 31st.
2. Due to the theme, no prompts will be issued this round. However, we’d still like you to sign-up so we have an idea of how many folk will be participating.
3. You will have approximately 8 weeks (depending on when you sign up *g*) to write; stories will be due between Saturday, September 19th and Friday, September 25th. (Please don’t post your stories before then. On the 19th, I’ll create a master list and ask you to provide links in the comments.)
Some Rules:
You may write any slash pairing (that includes both m/m and f/f slash), any rating, any genre. There is no maximum word length, but stories should be at least 1000 words. (That’s only about 3 pages, folks!)
Please note that you do not need to have a LiveJournal account to participate in the Ficathon.
For additional information, please check out the full rules on the community profile.
