story_lottery (original) (raw)

I can't believe it's been nearly two years since I've hosted a round of story_lottery. Times does fly!

Unfortunately, I'm not here to announce a new round just yet. Last year, I created a bingo community, and I'm trying to give it another try. If you're willing to give it a shot. Head over there. :)

If you don't, no hard feelings. Rest assured I'm not giving up on this community just yet. It's my most successful community. Many of you participated since round 1, and I'm not about to let you down like that.

In the meantime,

Love Bingo Round 2love_bingo

Hi guys!

I'm trying to find the right time to host round 4 of story_lottery but I don't know when to do it. I generally count one month for sign-ups and two months for writing. The next few months are busy-busy in fandom land with Nanowrimo in November and Yuletide in December, and big bangs and fic exchange taking place everywhere and all the time.

So when would you like the next round to be? Any thoughts? Anything else to say about the community in general? I'm open to suggestions. :)

Title: "Heat of the Day"

Pairing: Muraki/Oriya
Genre: Romance, coming of age
Rating: PG-13
Prompt: Round 3, 23: a creek @ story_lottery
Summary: One summer day, during a school break, Muraki makes a confession to his closest friend, which changes their relationship
Spoilers: None in particular

Disclaimer: I do not own Yami no Matsuei, aka Descendants of Darkness, it’s characters, concepts and other indicia, which are the intellectual property of Yoko Matsushita, Hiroko Tokita, Manga Entertainment, Viz Media, Hakusensha, Central Park Media, et al.
A/N: I have long held the theory that Muraki and Oriya are lovers (or at least sex-buddies, with Oriya serving as Muraki's donor once his vampirism started to become more obvious), though I have a feeling Oriya is essentially straight, he just made an exception for his best friend...

( A hot summer day during school break... )

So, thanks for all of those who posted during the amnesty period, it wasn't meant to last that long, but it did! Ha! It's still opened till next round, if some of you want to finish their table.

So if you're interested in a new round of story_lottery, stay tuned. I'm thinking about doing it over the summer. Nothing is definite yet.

In the meantime, my new baby!
