So, as some may know, I'm currently launching this Challenge thingimagie-business.

My beloved bride Thread of Life adviced me to advertise it on the forum. As my manager (i just decided that on the spot) i decided to follow her advise. So, slash authors, let's all give a great kick up the muses' asses. Here's the October Challenge:

October Challenge

Theme is ‘he who angers you conquers you’. A and B meet. Can’t stand each other (for whichever reason you chose). They end up together (in whichever way you chose). How do they move from nemesis to lovers? You tell me :)

MUSTs

Both main characters must be over the age of 18.

Must use the words: thesaurus, Kaleidoscope, arithmetic, dusky, iridescent and question.

One character must say: “You only said that because right now, you’re feeling very small inside!” (by the way, I forgot to say this in the first challenge: but you may change the punctuation of the quote if you wish so.)

MUST BE SLASH (like I need to say this)

At some point in the story, one of the MCs must do something very immature/stupid/embarrassing.

NO-WAYs

No dates: no characters can go on date, ask someone on a date, mention a date, suggest a date, etc. If you want your characters to meet up somewhere, make it imaginative and completely un-date-like.

No High School romance, unless it involves two teachers. This time around, teens are banned from this challenge.

Enjoy! :)

JOIN IN EVERYONE!! IT'LL BE FUN! :)

Changing genders is fun!!

Anyways, I wasn't going to ask you this, but since you're here and everything, I may as well.

Would you consider a drunken writing of "LOL ILU" and then a phone number on someone's chest be an obvious mention of love by a character? The whole ILU thing... Haha.

Hmmmm...i woudn't think so, no. You may keep going ;)

Out of curiousity and well, necessity, what is the exact due date?

23rd of September :)

I am officially participating :P (despite the fact that I have a story that only needs one more chapter to be done, plus its sequal and a story my sister requested of me)

I want to try it. But at the same time I'm pretty positive that I'm going to end up not doing it. xD

Two questions:

Was there anything about wordcount?

No mentions of love... Does that also mean no mentions of the lack of love as well?

1) Nope, no wordcount. It may be as long as you wish so long as it's presented as a oneshot.

2) I wouldn't think so, no.

Good luck, can't wait to read what you come up with. You can't understand how happy i am your participating. You made a fan happy :')

I'm not guaranteeing (holy shit... I spelled that correctly on my first try...) anything unfortunately. I'm currently in the middle of writing a birthday story and I has five tons of homework.

But it's hard to pass up a challenge. u_u That's my competitive nature peeking out again.

:wiggles:

interesting.

I'm always looking for things to make me want to write... I might try my hand at this.

Fine. being a student myself, i understand your pain.

Final deadline is the 25th of September, but no further than that.

You better hand something in, now, though. Otherwise, the price shalt be paid in thy blood.

(*pervert inner monster: kinkiiii!*)

To SerialxLain: disappoint the fans and the fans CUT. I know where you live *stalks*

Bring it on, sweetcheeks. The pain. I like it. ;D

(Do you really know where I live? o.o :looks out window: )

I so have a plot now (sort of), and two notebooks pages of words. (Which isn't much once on the computer, but I'm choosing to ignore that.)

Sweeeeet.

Yaaaayyye!!!! ZOMFG I AM SO EXITED I CANT WAIT TO READ WHAT YOU COME UP WITH AND OMG OMG OMG I THINK I'VE GONE INTO FULL-FANGIRL-MODE AND I'M FREAKING MYSELF OUT!!

*glomps you*

*doesn't let go*

I'm, so, totally, like, exited.

I could die :')

*happiness*

o.o Holy ego-boost.

Wow, Lain, it seems like you've given Freak the WILL TO LIVE!

I'm working on the story too, by the way. As long as I don't get distracted by Let's Play Majora's Mask again.

Yes, I'm a professional Egobooster(tm). You can buy me on Amazon or Ebay, i come fully packaged and wil last you a lifetime. I don't even need batteries, as i feed on my owner's wonderfuloveliness.

:3

Miss Mysty- Yes, you people give me the wil to live. Without my FP idols/bunch of two or three loyal fans, i have NOTHING!!

*weeps*

LET NOTHING DISTRACT YOU FROM THIS! LET THIS BE THE REASON YOU WAKE AND EAT! SLAVE AT WRITING THIS ONESHOT AND I SHALL LOVE YOU FOREVER!

If you don't.......*Anthony Hopkins-style stare*

Neve underestimate the powers of disappointed hopes.

I kinda want to do this challenge...as opposed to finishing my homework that i can't get my head around. Seems a bit more funsies but I havent writted a one shot in a long time... Ah, sweet procrastination!

Oh, this could be fun. (As I come out of no where to join in) I've never written a one shot though. Maybe I'll try it.

You're magical then...! :o

Yes, yes I am. So very magical that you are the second person to say that today. :)

So I totally know almost exactly where I'm going with my story. It makes me happy :)

ZOMFGWTFYAYE!! I'm happy too!! Let's make love!! I can't wait! The stars in my eyes are reflecting on the computer screen and it DAZZLES, my friend!! *huggle of deathly happiness*

"totally almost exactly"

I like that :3

Hee hee. I'm glad I could make you so happy. Are you going to be like this every month, though?

Like what? Happy that people are participating? Hellz YEARGH BABEH!

Well, actually, i guess it depends on how many entries i get this time around. If by the end of the month i realise that all the people who said they'd write a response don't send one, i'll probably end up bitter and cynical...and won't go for another round. If they DO, however........plenty of juice for my enthusiasm batteries ^_^

Try me!

*attempts participation*

The ultimate question: does it really have to make sense?

Not that either of us could tell the difference anyway...

hopefully it doesn't.
