A little R/T drabbling for the holidays?

[shimotsuki]

When I joined LJ almost exactly six (!) years ago, it was so that I could post at the January 2007 event at rt_challenge. And every December after that, there was an event going on at metamorfic_moon. So this is the first holiday season I've faced without a Remus/Tonks event -- and I'm going through a certain amount of withdrawal, lol

Oh my fault is it now? Well I'll certainly take responsibility for more R/T love in the world ;)

I'd like a prompt please!

This is a fab idea, can't wait to see the results!

[shimotsuki]

Yay!

You didn't specify holiday or non-, so I'll give you a holiday one, but it doesn't have to be a holiday story. ;)

comfort and joy

Give me a Christmas prompt that I may or may not use. ;)

BUT OH MY MERLIN, I LOVE YOU FOR THIS.

[merryb87]

btw, can you post all the links, to the stories, so we all can read them?

[shimotsuki]

I'm hoping people will post their links here in the comments! But yes, if they don't, I will make sure there are links to everything somewhere.

Your random carol prompt (courtesy of Pandora) is:

when half-spent was the night

Yay! Though not the artistic or creative type (sigh) As you know I am the fangirl type and am anxiously awaiting my squeeing to begin! Best Christmas present ever!

[shimotsuki]

I'm just happy there are so many people interested in doing this! :D

(You realize your icon is unnecessary, right? Remus and Tonks are feeling just fine and enjoying having Teddy home from Hogwarts for Christmas at the moment. ;P )

LJ needs a Like button!

YAY! ♥ (I was also feeling the Meta seasonal withdrawal, so good on you and katyscarlett76.)

I did actually start an R/T drabble/short fic at the beginning of December (don't ask), but another prompt wouldn't go amiss to kick-start it again. A holiday one, please.

Will there be the compulsory Meta deadline extension? ;)

[shimotsuki]

Yay! Pandora inspires the following random carol prompt for you:

the weather outside is frightful

Use or ignore at will. ;)

Will there be the compulsory Meta deadline extension? ;)

I didn't even think about a deadline! I suppose I should set one so we can extend it, lol. I guess it would be a fun start to the new year if I could post a masterlist on Jan 1? That would suggest a deadline of, let's say, noon my time (so 5pm GMT?) Jan 1. Unless we have an extension. ;)

[gilpin25]

Ooh, I like Pandora's choice!

1st January sounds good. :D (Till the extension, obviously.;))

How lucky am I - just a few days ago I wrote about feeling almost like the only R/T-fan left in this world (well, thankfully I know that you are still writing about them :-)) - and now this! Yippiii!

I'm actually contemplating throwing aside my scared-to-write-fiction-in-English-thoughts (or any fiction at all with this talended group...), but we'll see what inspiration and courage can come up with.

Since I'm very new at this - is there a deadline to this?

[shimotsuki]

Isn't this fun? I'm happy that so many people have responded!

I think it would be wonderful if you wrote something, even something short. :)

Since I'm very new at this - is there a deadline to this?

I didn't even think about that! But I suppose we'd better have one, if I'm going to make a new post with information about everyone's drabbles and drawbles. Let's say by 5pm GMT (that might be 6pm or 7pm your time?) on Jan 1. But if that date gets close and people want more time, we can have an extension...

Happy writing!

[gilpin25]

*waves* Hope you don't mind me butting in to say hello, but how nice to see a new R/T fan! :)

I'll echo shimotsuki and say it would be lovely if you wrote something for them.

[huldrejenta]

*waves back*
I don't mind at all, and hello to you too! I've actually read quite a few of your HP-fics on metamorfic_moon, and REALLY enjoy them :-)
