    And it’s new challenge time once again! I’m pleased to announce...

    OTP Challenge #29: Destination Events!

    For this challenge, once again, I thank @ViariSkywalker, who has a real talent for coming up with these romance challenges. Thank you once again, Vi! :)

    We are back to the good old double-roulette format for this challenge. You’ll use Random.org or another random number generator to choose two numbers from 1 to 10—one from column A, and one from column B. This will give you (a) an event for your OTP to be present at together, and (b) the planet in the SW universe where this event will take place!

    Column A: Event
    1. Wedding
    2. Death or funeral
    3. Birth
    4. Reunion
    5. Battle
    6. Religious/mystical ceremony
    7. First date
    8. Shopping trip
    9. Sporting event
    10. Freeform!

    Column B: Planet
    1. Naboo
    2. Tatooine
    3. Chandrila
    4. Nal Hutta
    5. Corellia
    6. Yavin
    7. Contruum
    8. Saleucami
    9. Coruscant
    10. Freeform!

    Some important points to keep in mind:
    • Since we haven’t had the “throw a dice” function on these boards for a long time, it’s onorhay ystemsay on the andomray umbernay. ;)
    • It’s OK if more than one person get the same numbers or combinations of numbers.
    • Yes, I’m afraid the choice of planets in column B means that this one is specifically geared toward SW this time around; sorry about that! The exception, however, is if you end up with “Freeform” in column B—see below.
    • ”Freeform” in either column is exactly what it sounds like: you can choose any event or any planet/location, and it can be one of the ones on the list or one that’s not on the list at all. (And, again, in the case of locations, that could be one outside the GFFA, if you like!)
    • And, finally, you’ll have our usual eight (8) weeks to write. Stories come due on Friday, May 26, at 11:59pm (23:59).
    [face_dancing] Happy writing, everyone! [face_dancing]

    Ooooh, nice! Thanks for the awesome challenge, @ViariSkywalker! (And @Captain Rakkaus for hosting this thread, as always! [:D])

    The dice of fate gave me #7. First Date, and #3. Chandrila! Lemme see what I can do with that. [face_thinking]

    So. Many. OCs. So. Much. Stimulus.

    [face_dunno]

    Well, if you gotta go... go with a smile.

    :)

    Random.org gave me 6 & 1... Wow, isn't that something: Religious/mystical ceremony on Naboo. One of my favorite places.

    I'll see what I can come up with. :p


    EDIT: I might list out my OCs, and let Random.org decide for me, lol.


    EDIT - EDIT: Well, THAT was a brilliant idea... my answer for which of my OCs, thanks to Random is... well, it's Nonya, Nonya Business. :p Not until it's written. But yeah, left me shaking my head, lol - :rolleyes: :eek: 8-}

    This challenge was apparently very inspirational for my muse because I have managed to put together my entry already[face_dancing]

    My column A roll was Reunion, and my column B planet was Naboo. Which meant that Padme and Palo instantly sprang to mind for me, and I created this story:

    Surprise Reunion in Theed

    It can be read as a slight AU since Padme and Palo's paths don't immediately diverge as soon as he decides he is more interested in his art than politics, but the main focus is on romantic fluff and mush[face_love]

    Congrats @Pandora , and kudos to all the writers. @};-=D=

    And I can't wait to see what I get for my numbers, but I probably should at least wait till I've got my current project finished. (It looks like a fantastic challenge! :D )

    I have two neglected WIPs that I really need to turn my attention to now that the KR is nearly over, but just in case inspiration strikes: I got 4, Reunion, and 1, Naboo, hmm hmm [face_thinking]

    I have an ad-hoc entry for the challenge, With This Ring, featuring my OC Wren Ordo and Kazuda Xiono. The event and location are “proposal” and “Lothal”; I knew I wasn’t like to roll two 10s, but I’ve had this story on the backburner for a long time, and I thought that submitting it for this challenge could be the extra-hard kick in the shebs I need to finally finish it;)

    I got 7 and 9, first date on Coruscant. Mushy Vampire/Thrawn and Leia! Now, the bigger question is… soundtrack options.

    Just got the index updated! Wow, how amazing is it that we’ve got one competitive and one ad-hoc entry already, both before the halfway point of the challenge! Which is roughly today, by the way: there is now one (1) month left, with stories coming due on May 26. :)
