Deeply Horrible does Dysfuncentine’s sloppy seconds.</center>

This is it! The claiming period of the Sloppy Seconds Fest is open!

Here's what you do: Comment with up to three three prompts you'd like to write. If selecting a Snape/any prompt, include the pairing you want to claim it for. We'll give out prompts (first come, first served), and send you an email with your assigned prompt to confirm your claim, and you can go start writing.

Prompts with specified couples will be given out twice. Open prompts (Snape/any) will be given out once per unique pairing, to as many people as want to write them. Once your first claimed prompt is written/drawn/vidded/carved out of granite and submitted, you may claim more.

Here's the prompts post.

Here's the claiming form:

<b>Title:</b> <b>LJ/DW username:</b> <lj user="USERNAME"> <b>Your email address:</b> <b>Fic, art, or vid?:</b> <b>First choice prompt (with pairing if applicable):</b> <b>Second choice prompt (with pairing if applicable):</b> <b>Third choice prompt (with pairing if applicable):</b>

Prompt claims will be open from April 2 through April 5. Go on, let the games commence!

Prompt-Claiming is Now Closed.

However, anyone who has already confirmed receipt of their first prompt may claim a second prompt. After completion and submission of your first two prompts, you may also sign up here for a third.
