[Aug. 16th, 2012|10:14 pm] |
many thanks to ![[info]](https://www.insanejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) maybe742 for the lovely banner!
xie_xie_xie will be posting the first drabble tomorrow AM (today got away from her because Rawley had to go into the hospital because he has pneumonia).
( Now onto the list... )
Once xie_xie_xie posts in the morning, it's ON...LOL. Please post your drabble within 24 hours of the previous one (and it would be great for readers if you linked to the previous drabble prior to starting yours). I understand emergencies happen, so if you need to swap a spot, comment on this post and I'll try to move some things around. Remember, if you want to write more, just comment on this post and I'll update the list accordingly.
Don't forget to award your condom to the character of your choice.
Questions? Ask Away! HAPPY DRABBLING!
ps i apologize for the lateness of this post. i lost the first one i did and had to start all over. |

Hello gang...such lovely drabbles this week. They were all so brilliant and in character. *loves*
Moving on...Challenge #211: Heat wave is officially closed.
The diner  wins by 2 condoms.
CONDOM BATTLE: Award your condom to any character of your choice!
Now it's time to announce the ROUND ROBIN CHALLENGE:
made by the ever-talented maybe742
I think you all know what a round robin is but in case you don't: A round-robin story is one that is started by one person and then continued successively by others in turn.
HOW IT WILL WORK.
1. Sign up in the comments telling me how many drabbles you'd like to write. For example if you want to write 5, comment with 5.
2. I will comment back, after sign ups, assigning you your place (or multiple places if you sign up for more than one) in the story. Yes, you may even get 2 in a row. :D
3. Either myself, or xie_xie_xie will write the first drabble and then you guys will take the story from there. First drabble does up Thursday evening.
4. You can come back here and request more drabble assignments at any time. (I will do my best to stay on top of this.)
5. We'll go until you guys want to stop. LOL
Questions? Ask away. Please pimp this all over!!!!!! Feel free to grab the graphic too! |

Our battle will be between:
The Loft, Season One (icon by LJ's no-apologies-86)

[Aug. 3rd, 2011|04:17 pm] |
Wow! 11 condoms for Brian, only 4 for poor Emmett... but it looks like that photo of Brian's arms was as inspirational to our drabblers as it's always been to me. ;)
And I guess the (ahem) little extra time I gave didn't hurt either.
Our new prompt is: Planes, trains, buses, cars.
I'd already done a battle between "Brian following Justin to New York in 110" and "Brian following Justin to New York in 601," which is the obvious battle for this challenge as well. So I really thought and thought; what would be the perfect challenge for this prompt?
I thought for so long that three days went by, at which point a girl has to realize she's really over-thinking. So I used the random number generator to get two episodes, and came up with 219 and 412.
Hmmm, 219, episode of searing agony, vs 412, one of my favorite all-time episodes? That didn't seem fair. No, not at all.
So then I randomly picked two icons by scrolling through my icons with my eyes closed and touching the screen before I opened them.
The first one I got was this, by rebeccama:
The second was this, by ohfreckle:
I tried, fangirls. I really did. I just didn't feel any inspiration there. I mean, I love both those icons. I really do. But do you see a battle there? Me neither.
And everything else I thought up, we'd already done. Brian's cock vs Justin's ass. Brian's hair vs Justin's hair, or their hair in one season vs their hair in another. Butt sex vs cock sucking, chicken soup vs yak shit tea, Michael as best friend vs Daphne as best friend, the Corvette vs the Jeep, you name it, it seems we'd done it.
So, having exhausted every last bit of creativity I possessed and begged my muses to come up with something -- ANYTHING -- to allow me to post this damn prompt, I gave up. I was curled in the fetal position considering having it be a battle between testicular cancer and scar tissue on the brain -- so help me, that's what I was thinking -- when it hit me.
I ask you to choose between the two things we love the most about our beloved show and the fan fiction it has inspired. Ladies and, if there are any at all, gentlemen, our battle this week is:
PLOT
vs.
PORN! |

[Jul. 17th, 2011|10:16 pm] |
Thanks to everyone who drabbled this week! Trevor Project beat the Pittsburgh AIDS Task Force 5 to 1, but I'm going to make it an even $20 to each organization. :)
This week, our prompt will be a photo:
Your stories should be about anything this photo inspires in you, but if you write about Brian's arms, you can award double condoms. ;)
The battle will be between our two tall guys, Emmett vs. Brian!
Have fun! |

| Challenge #203: Closed // Challenge #204: What have you done today... |
[Jul. 11th, 2011|10:04 am] |
I had this ready to go last night and THOUGHT I had hit submit, but when I got up this morning, it hadn't gone through. Sorry about that!!!
Hmmm, emotional pain and physical pain tied in last week's challenge. How Brian-esque. ;)
This week, I'm going to try something a bit different, since the last two didn't get as many drabbles as usual.
The battle will be between the Pittsburgh AIDS Task Force and The Trevor Project, and I'll donate $1 for every qualifying drabble submitted this week to the winning organization. (ALL drabbles count, not just the one awarded to the ultimate winner.)
Our theme is: What have you done today to make you feel proud?
Let me know if you have any questions!
Love,
Xie |

| Challenge #202: Closed // Challenge #203: Hurts so good |
[Jul. 3rd, 2011|07:33 pm] |
Thanks to mander3_swish for drabbling to my silly prompt last week -- I have a partially-finished drabble series based on the prompt, but I've let it run over WAY too long already, and so I am giving up and changing the prompt tonight, "on schedule" but a week late!
I wasn't able to give any time to it this week because my family was visiting from California... the family that I LOVE, my youngest brother, his wife, and my beloved little nephew. I should have realized I'd have no time to write and changed the prompt last week. I apologize for sucking!
Of course I will post the fic "out of challenge" when it's done!
Anyway, Proposal Number One got one condom, and so is our winner!
This week's prompt is: Hurts so good!
Interpret the prompt however you want: Erotic pain, angst so juicy the reader can't put it down even though it KILLS THEM, a cathartic fight or other painful event that leads to an emotional breakthrough, or just really good sex... or anything else the prompt inspires in you!
Our battle is between:
Physical pain
(icon by zaipixie)
Emotional pain

Do with it what you will. ;) |

[Jun. 22nd, 2011|09:31 pm] |
The loft windows beat Britin's windows, 3 to 1! Thanks to the drabblers!
I'm going with a somewhat odd prompt, in honor of the fact that the New York State Senate may be about to pass a marriage equality law (or, you know, not...). The law has already passed the State Assembly.
I'd like to have your drabbles be about that. It doesn't matter if Brian and Justin are living in Tahiti and read about it on Twitter, or Justin's in New York and Brian arrives on bended knee the morning after it passes, or if Justin gets arrested protesting when it doesn't pass... anything at all the prompt of "New York State marriage equality" inspires in you. :)
And since we may know even tonight which way it goes, feel free to rip your story from today's headlines, LOL, but don't feel bound by it.
Our condom battle this week will be between:
Proposal one: (icon by LJ's all_feeling)
Proposal two: (icon by zaipixie)
Oh, and pee ess: This prompt will only run until SUNDAY NIGHT, so we can get back on schedule. :) |

Hmmm, Season One "Brian in Denial" beats out Season Five "Brian in Denial" four to one!
This week's prompt (which I'll run until NEXT WEDNESDAY NIGHT to make up for the late start, but after that we'll be back to every Sunday, I promise!)
This week's prompt is:
Windows. You can make that literal, or metaphorical. And it can be about, or inspired by, any windows, not just those in the icons below.
The condom battle is:
Britin windows (icon by qafmaniac):
Vs.
Loft windows (icon by brianslave68):

Hmmm, the time Brian went after Justin in episode 601 was the winner in this week's drabble challenge! Awesome!
This week, our prompt will be: Brian in Denial
The condom battle will be between:
Season One Brian-in-Denial (by LJ's paddies)
Season Five Brian-in-Denial (by youbetterwiseup)
You don't have to write about those scenes or seasons, however -- anything inspired by "Brian in Denial" is fine! |

Hmmm, our fandom drabblers like 308 reunion sex over 502 reuntion sex 4-to-1!
Thanks to everyone for being patient while I settled into a routine in my new place -- I'll be on schedule with the drabble prompts from now on. :)
I meant to do this one before, in honor of my cross-country move, but I didn't get around to it -- until now! So, fans, let's see what this week's prompt inspires in you all:
ROAD TRIP!
Our condom battle this week will be between Brian going after Justin in 110 (icon by ohfreckle):

Our prompt this week is FOOD!
Our condom battle will be:
Chinese food (icon by nanoa)

Ice cream (icon by no_apologies_86 )
And no, you don't have to write about Chinese food or ice cream... anything related to food, from Emmett's catering business to Mel's late night pregnancy cravings to Debbie cooking breakfast for Justin, is fine! As long as there's a food angle, it's in! |

Yes, our own Sunshine's hair won the challenge between Brian and Justin, and I thank all the wonderful drabblers who made this such a fun prompt! YAY!
This week, our prompt is: HEAT. Take that in any way you wish.

Wow!
"Working... not!" wins with 15, over "Work sucks" with 5, proving that, while no one in this fandom likes work, we'd rather just not do it than complain about it. WE ROCK!
I'm so sorry that I failed to get my drabbles up... the drabbles that were the whole reason for this prompt! I'll write them and post later, outside of the challenge.
Our new prompt is "Here comes the rain again." (Hey, I'm a child of the 80s, what can I say?)
