Thanks to

tvashti,

faithburke,

graycardinal,

earcmacfithil, and

jerseyfabulous for playing.

That gives us eight winners so far; but there's still a week left to participate! Which brings us to:

challenge amnesty week

For the last week of the 2012 Mod Birthday Competition, write exactly 100 or 200 words featuring your chosen Buffy or Angel-verse character(s) and some variation on one of the prompts listed below (all the challenges since 2008); use your imaginations! Any crossover is welcome, but please post each drabble behind a cut, declare your wordcount, and tag appropriately. That makes counting them up so much easier on your mod!

( Here is the available list of challenges: )

( And, here are the current standings: )

Happy drabbling! The Mod Birthday Drabblefest will end on MARCH 11.

Title: Papay Ate My Baby
Word Count: 200
Fandom: BtVS,

Disclaimer: I own nothing except the words, and that's probably up for philosophical debate.
Summary: Starting a musical revolution is okay with Oz, but the OZ has a scene he already likes.

Author:

graycardinal
Rating: G
Wordcount: 100
Challenge: #117 (lost in translation)
Fandom: BtVS/Winnie-the-Pooh
Spoilers: None.
Disclaimer: The Jossverse belongs to Hollywood, the original Pooh books are by A. A. Milne, and then there are the various Disney Poohniverses.... The drabble? That comes from me. (And demonstrates that I am a Person of Very Peculiar Brain.)

We shall, of course, need a Winnie-the-Pooh tag....

Current Location: I'm not sure I really want to know
Current Music: a rumbly in my tumbly

Title: Mixed-up Translation
Fandoms: BtVS, Supernatural
Words: 100
Challenge: 117 Lost in Translation
Summary: Buffy and the Winchesters disagree about vampires.

Title: Better Use It Carefully....
Author:

graycardinal
Rating: G
Wordcount: 100
Challenge: #117 (lost in translation)
Fandom: BtVS/Angel, see below
Spoilers: None. I leave it to the gallery to decide whether this should fit into overall continuity during Wesley's early run in Buffy or somewhere appropriate in the Angel run. Either has definite chaos-creating potential. :-)
Disclaimer: The Jossverse belongs to Hollywood; the drabble belongs to me. We'll talk about the crossover canon afterward (or as soon as I've recovered from being pelted with fruit-shaped missiles).

( “So the books were based on actual events?” )

Current Mood: amused
Current Location: not in bed yet (where I should be)
Current Music: "Conjunction Junction" (Schoolhouse Rock)

Title: Fourth Dimension
Word Count: 200
Fandom: BtVS, Eureka
Challenge: #117, lost in translation
Disclaimer: I own nothing except the words, and that's up for philosophical debate.
Summary: Things are so not turning out the way Fargo wanted them to.
Notes: Another sequel to an unpublished story for #114, this one also unwritten, that will hopefully go up during Amnesty Week. I think this stands on it's own well enough, just in case that first one never makes it.
