ADMIN: Contest #1 Begins!
Welcome, one and all, to wholockians first fanfic challenge! We have three prompts for you to choose from: a gif, a prompt from someone on Tumblr for an AU meme, and a song lyric. The challenge will go from May 14th to June 30th (I was going to post this tomorrow but we're getting a new internet provider so I'm not sure what net connectivity is going to be like).
Rules
1 - You can enter up to six entries. You may enter one drabble (100 to 500 words) and one fic (750 words and up) for each prompt, not counting the header. Please use this header (you may add to it, but don't take away from it):

Summary:
2 - They must be brand new fics written specifically for the challenge. They also must include at least one character from the Whoniverse and one character from Sherlock.
3 - No NC-17 fics. You may include sexual content but keep it at an R-rated level. Everyone needs to be able to read these.
4 - Use the appropriate tag. I will be clicking on the tags to gather entires for the voting on July 1st, so if it's not tagged it won't get included. The tags are:
*contest #1/prompt 1 - drabble
*contest #1/prompt 1 - fic
*contest #1/prompt 2 - drabble
*contest #1/prompt 2 - fic
*contest #1/prompt 3 - drabble
*contest #1/prompt 3 - fic
5 - If you enter a fic and then decide to enter a different one, take the contest tag off your old entry. You don't need to delete it from the community.
6 - If you use the prompt from Tumblr you must include credit to fannishminded by using the link here in the rules in your author's notes. It was not my idea and fannishminded has gotten screwed out of credit before, and I want to make sure it doesn't happen again.
7 - You do not need to use the entirety of prompt #3. If only one line calls to you, use that.
Ready? Here are the prompts:
Prompt #1
Prompt #2
From fannishminded on Tumblr, where Sherlock and Amy met in therapy as children: "He was intrigued, she thought he was like her raggedy doctor. She bit the therapist. He deduced he had been sleeping with a patient and to keep silent demanded the therapist let Amy and him use the office for the time of their sessions. They both spent all future “sessions” as a 2 hour chat session. At least till her Aunt twigged on. Those 2 years of therapy were the best sessions either had, and was the closest friendship Sherlock ever had."
Prompt #3
I’m coming home
I’m coming home
Tell the World I’m coming home
Let the rain wash away all the pain of yesterday
I know my kingdom awaits and they’ve forgiven my mistakes
I’m coming home, I’m coming home
Tell the World that I’m coming
Diddy feat. Skylar Grey, "Coming Home"
Until the contest is over, this will be our sticky post, so it will be at the top of the community if you want to find it. Let's have some fun with this!
