Discovered In A Sky Rocket

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

Remember, remember the fifth of November,
Gunpowder, treason and plot…

Sounds pretty much exactly like a day in the life of CI5 if you ask me… and thus the next dialj challenge – Discovered In A Sky Rocket.

There are two possible parts to this challenge!

Either:

Once more, post-as-you-please-on-the-day of the challenge, any creation based around Guy Fawkes Night (and I know there is some fic out there – yeay!)

or:

Firework Drabble Challenge
If you fancy something more in the way of inspiration, request a prompt below and you will be given the name of a firework/s on which to base a drabble/s (or fic, if you feel so inclined)! Eg. Golden Lion or Giddy Aunties In A Spin (no, it’s an actual firework *g*). We thought it might be nice to have some little bursts of Pros, especially since there isn't much time between Halloween and Guy Fawkes Night...

As usual, please sign up by commenting below if you’d like to take part (although we certainly won’t reject surprise last-minute contributions either!)

I see no reason, why gunpowder treason
Should ever be forgot…

I fancy the drabble :-) Hope there isnt one called Golden showers, although I suspect there is hehehe

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

Gawd, no need to light a rocket under you, is there?!

No, you cannot have Golden Showers... I dread to think what you'd do with that *g* How about... Volcanic Burst (Volcanic Burst) - although I'm sure that's just encouraging you too... *g*

And while I'm here, could I please have a drabble prompt Ms co-mod person?

Well, you did say not too easy. :D

[msmoat.livejournal.com]

Right, well, you know I'm in! *g* It's a story; it's a sequel, I read the comments when you proposed the All Hallow's Eve challenge, saw you were thinking about this, and decided I'd best be prepare. Sad, isn't it?

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

Ah, both sad and prepared, eh? Sounds good to me - yeay for fic and yeay for sequels!

I'm mental even asking for this, but hit me. Nothing too difficult, mind. And no guarantees I'll finish it.

*smiles broadly at mental Pros writer* Its just a little drabble... *g*

How about Hailstorm Fury (http://www.cosmicfireworks.com/product_full.asp?name=Hailstorm+Fury&code=1261)?

[przed.livejournal.com]

That'll do.

I've got my story nearly done, so I'm in!

I've just got to try to get to grips with this lj thingy, though...

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

Excellent!

As for lj, it's ace once you get used to it - well worth it! And feel free to ask about anything, anytime... : )

[bistokidsfan77.livejournal.com]

Well, I've been prompted to do a sequal to my Halloween fic, which really was set on Guy Fawkes day lol, so I think I'll do it! However, can't promise a vid to go with, but I'll give it a whack...

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

Yeay! We'll take whatever you're offering, and go ooh and aah... *g*

[callistosh65.livejournal.com]

I'm in! Story's done - and it's made me *so* nostalgic for the Bonfire Nights of my childhood in the UK - can almost taste the toffee apples *g*

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

Oh excellent - this is going to be a good Bonfire Night! And yeah... toffee apples... *sighs nostalgically too*

[rosie55.livejournal.com]

Oh, I was very disappointed on Saturday when LJ was down and there were no Bonfire stories at all but wow, has today been different! Haven't had such a satisfying afternoon for ages - sad, me!?!
Haven't you had some great entries? Whatever next?? Advent? New Year? By the way, I notice from the Blue Mountain site that the 5th November is National Doughnut day in the States - now there's a thought for next year - just the time for Bodie to visit the US of A!!
Or perhaps Pancake day? Why do these foods make me think of Bodie? Goes away giggling!

[rosie55.livejournal.com]

Duh! Ignore the previous waffling - not being at work I had forgotten the date!! Since our Town Bonfire was on Saturday, I'd forgotten that was being held a day early, until I just wondered to myself quite why so many people were letting off their own fireworks tonight - as I say, brain disengaged, sorry to all those prompt folk posting on the right day!!! Still grand stories, though!
