Friending Frenzy! Wheeeeeeee!

Welcome to The Phoenix Flies Kick-off Friending Frenzy!

At over 70 members, more than 180 watchers, 60 prompts and more than 40 claims, we're off to a fantastic start! (Rumor has it that there are fics that are already done and ready to be posted... submission guidelines will be posted soon.) So while we all wait for next Monday's posting to begin, we're going to start things off with a little friending frenzy. Now's the time to catch back up with all your old friends from The-Site-Which-Must-Not-Be-Named as well as making some new ones as well.

Step 1: Copy the template and paste it into a new comment.
Step 2: Fill out the template with your own information
Step 3: Post the comment.
Step 4: Browse through the comments and make new friends!

Template:

Now, let the word go forth that the friending frenzy has begun! (That means "pimp.") This frenzy is being hosted by

phoenix_flies but anyone may participate. You don't have to be a member or watcher to have fun and make friends here (although, of course, we hope you'll want to watch and play along!) Posting begins on August 27th and the next community event is scheduled for September 8-9. (Specific details to follow soon!)

So what are you waiting for? Get to friending!

	Hey, I saw that you friended me, and I added you back. Just wanted to wave hello. :) I adore Luna, btw. I'm so glad you made that asylum. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Sweet! Hello there. :) Luna's such a lovely character and I see that you're a watcher of dreamyeyed_luna (woot!). Thank you. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Oh yes. I totally forgot about the Snape/Harry threesomes! Those ARE great. Like you, I too refresh my friends page constantly when I'm home for the night. I'm really working on becoming more involved in fandom and making sure I'm commenting and the like. It's nice to know I'm not alone. Friending you too! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Woot, thanks for the friending! I was trying to hurry off to bed for an early day at work so I was friending as many people as I could before I had to turn off the computer. Hehe, I really do refresh constantly. I just want more sometimes because everyone is so fascinating. And you went to Hawaii recently! I was born and raised there. <3<3<3 Hawaii. Did you enjoy yourself while there?

Oh yes, threesomes are fantastic (the more the merrier). I just recently wrote a Snape/Harry/Luna PWP fic that I'm waiting to get back from a beta. It'll be posted for

florida_minxie's Bring Back The Porn on September 1.

You beta, right? *bats her eyes* If this seems a bit weird, ignore me, but I've been looking for a beta for days for my fic to no avail. It's a bit off the wall which is probably why I haven't gotten anyone but if you don't mind, I'd love to have you beta for me. Please? With cherries on top? ^^

Oops, I uh, talk a lot. Sorry!

I actually am leaving for Hawaii this coming Thursday, the 30th. I've never been, so this should be lots of fun. Where did you grow up in Hawaii?

And sure I'll beta for you! My email is in my profile, so just send me a message. I can't believe I'm going to miss the BBTP postings, since I'll be in Hawaii. But I'll have a lot of great stories to come back to, at least. I'm so excited to see all the lovely new pron!

Honolulu on the island of Oahu. To be more specific, I grew up in Waipahu, Salt Lake, and Kalihi. :D You'll love it. I highly suggest when/if you visit the North Shore to eat at one of the shrimp huts there. There are shrimp farms just behind those huts and they just basically scoop them out and you have crazy fresh shrimps with rice. Mmm, delicious. Oh, and see the whalphin (whale/dolphin hybrid) at Sea Life Park. She's my age I think and she has a baby too. If you want to know anything else, let me know.

Awesome, thank you! I'll send you the, um, warnings as well since the fic ia a bit different. Nothing bad, but it follows the storyline of Kill Bill. Hehe.
