Make maraudertimes Swoon Challenge | 1 July 2020

Recommended Posts

Challenge Name: The Make maraudertimes Swoon Challenge
Challenge Deadline: July 1st, 2020
Accepted Fandom(s): Harry Potter
Accepted Ratings: Any and all! (which means smut is allowed, provided that everything adheres to HPFT's guidelines)

Challenge Details: I really love romance. Any kind of romance, I will devour it until my heart melts and I am a puddle on the floor. Please write me a romance. Angsty, fluffy, action/adventure-y. The one thing I ask is to include a kiss. Don't make me ship a non-existent thing, I will get annoyed. This doesn't mean you have to go full on smut - if the entire story ends when these two characters finally realize they love each other and share a chaste kiss? That's romance too and I am here for it!!!!! But give me something to ship! Also, they have to end up together. I do not want to fall in love just to have my heart broken.
 

Rules:

  • Must include a kiss
  • Must have the main ship end up together (no sad endings, I want to swoon not sob)
  • Must be of the Romance genre (obviously)
  • No prewritten entries, and they must be standalone (i.e. no chapters in existing fic, and I shouldn't have to read something else to understand)
  • Must be Status: Completed by the deadline
  • Can be combined with other challenges
  • Multiple entries are allowed
  • Must have "For the Make maraudertimes Swoon Challenge" in the story summary/notes


Rewards:

  • All entries will receive a review
  • Honourable mentions - 1 extra review and a graphic
  • 3rd Place - 2 extra reviews and a graphic
  • 2nd Place - 3 extra reviews and a graphic
  • 1st Place - 5 extra reviews and a graphic

Question: Does it necessarily have to start with the characters not being together, and then they get together, or can it have to do with a romantic relationship that's already been established? Just checking because of the way you stated your rules, I didn't know if you're specifically looking for, you know, the thrill of brand new romance or whatevs. :ninja:

Fair question - I don't care how the ship is established. If you want to make it how the ship got together, if it's their wedding day, if it's a random date night 30 years after they met. It can be an angsty story about them getting through a difficult time together, a fluff piece about the birth of their first child, an action adventure piece where they end up getting married on a boat by a pirate captain during a sword fight with the undead (maybe not that one, there's probably some copyright).

The only things I want are a kiss, and that you don't break them apart by the end. :P

Quick question - is a sad ending okay if the couple are together until the end but there's a canon death? Would love to write a Cedric/Oliver for this but sadly no happy endings for them 😭

Yup! That works! Angst is alright unless the angst comes from them no longer being together for some reason at the end of the story (breakup, death, whatever else)

so i have a question - if i had a hypothetical collection of a consecutive series of one-shots that can each stand alone, would another chapter in that be okay as an entry?

edit: but also "branwen find something new to fucking write about" is totally and completely okay! 😂
