Come one, come all, 58 writers have signed up for the Percy Ficathon already.

Sign-ups end March 7th.

I've had a blast matching stories with authors, making some attempt to pair authors with something that's up their alley by reading also what you requested. It's a lot a guesswork, so I'm probably waaaaay off. I have 50 of you matched up already, though there will probably be some switching around towards the end.

Don't worry, generally speaking slash writers are not being given Het, and Het writers are not being given slash. People who asked for Percy/Padma in their requested fic aren't being given Percy/Hagrid as their writing assignment.

There's a huge variety of pairings and requests:

Percy/Fleur
Percy/Arthur
Percy/Voldemort (or Tom)
Percy/Snape
Percy/Harry
Percy/Lucius
Percy/Penny
Percy/Bellatrix
Percy/Ron
Percy/Bill (or Charlie)
Percy/Snape
Percy/Oliver
Percy/Quidditch Players
Percy/Marcus
Percy/Draco
Percy/Lavender
Percy/Remus
Percy/Hufflepuff
Percy/Zacharias
Percy/anyone not Blond!
Percy/Neville
Percy/Ginny (a surprising number)
Percy/Tonks
Percy/Luna
Percy/Cedric
Percy/Himself
Percy/Someone Interesting (like Umbridge)
Percy/Rita
Percy/Adrian
Percy/Padma
Percy/Twins

The requests range from open-ended 'in denial!Percy' 'give me a happy ending' and 'I like my Percy self-destructive' to specific, detailed plotlines, "I'd like to see tension between prefects" and "some sort of ridiculous misunderstanding involving furniture."

Should be a lot of fun.

*nods solemnly* haha aren't you supposed to know when it is? *sighs* this calls for a cig.

Percy/Hagrid!! LOL! If you get stuck with a fic with no one to give it to, feel free to use me and abuse me as a last resort writer...yes, even for Percy/Arthur. Damn it, I got a bunny. *fends off with a stick* I'm sticking this one in a cage until I get my assignment. Dark fics, funny fics, fluff that grows on rocks...wow I'm punchy. No more chocolate for Beth.

Ignore me. I swear Girl Scout Thin Mints are laced with an illegal substance.

[icarusancalion.livejournal.com]

They are. Trust that I know. ;)

What, you think a ridiculous misunderstanding involving furniture is in some way off the beaten path?

Well, hey, last time I was specific, I asked for something involving windows and I got an exhibitionist H/D, accidental dumbstruck voyeurism on the part of everyone else, thing of beauty, so, you know, I decided based on that one experiment that broadly specific and unusual is a Good Thing. ;)

[wyoming-knott.livejournal.com]

I love that phrase "broadly specific"...

And the thing with furniture was yours? I sat on my hands when I read Icarus' post, refraining from saying, "Oh! Please! Tell me that's for me!"

Because, yeah, I think that's neat. Have no clue as to how far off the beaten path it is though....

[florahart]

Yep. That's me. Ridiculous furniture fic requestor.

[wyoming-knott.livejournal.com]

Hope you (and the rest of us) get something good!

For some reason, I'm feeling the need to re-read "Occasional Table" now.

[icarusancalion.livejournal.com]

I'm not saying who has that one, though it has already been assigned.

Icarus

[wyoming-knott.livejournal.com]

Oh, I know better than to ask! :)

But a girl can dream, right?

exhibitionist H/D, accidental dumbstruck voyeurism on the part of everyone else

Guh. I hope we're that lucky.

I'll sign up. Can I have Percy/Lucius, please? ::puppy dog eyes:: When's the deadline? Any special things I have to keep in mind like word limits or special words, objects, etc?

[icarusancalion.livejournal.com]

Click ze link at the top of ze post and you shall find out. *Yay! Sing's going to participate! Bounces*

Icarus

[singtoangels.livejournal.com]

Hurrah! I'm excited that you're excited. :p I would sponsor a Twins fic-a-thon after the Percy one, but not enough people come to my journal. ::hints:: I really have a soft, wet, squishy spot for Twins/Hermione fics. ::nudges:: I'm going to go sign up for Percy-smut now.

Kisses

[icarusancalion.livejournal.com]

You do a twinsfest and I'll sing about it, sing.

Icarus

[singtoangels.livejournal.com]

That'll work. Look, I've got legs. ::whaps you with a french loaf:: byeeeeee! I love you. Don't you just love Eddie Izzard? He gives us wonderful things.

[barbana.livejournal.com]

I'm looking forward to it. Although I confess to feeling a wee bit left out...damned second-class artistic citizenship. *G* Any hints on what you'll be writing?

Re: *sigh*

[icarusancalion.livejournal.com]

*slaps forehead* I forgot the artists! Drat.

Um. Sign up and offer art. I'll find someone who wants art, and who will reward you with fic.

I am so excited. I never write Percy. Thankyou for this!
