Title: This Much
Author: Spikedluv
Fandom: Shelter
Rating: R/Slash
Pairing: Zach/Shaun
Length: 1580 words
Spoilers: None.
Summary: Zach gets tipsy on eggnog...
Notes: Tipsy!horny!Zach. I wanted to write tipsy!snuggly!Zach, but tipsy!horny!Zach took over the fic. Written for the shelter_diner Holiday Fest 2011 using the prompt: Zach gets tipsy on eggnog and tells Shaun how much he loves him - in front of an audience.

The prompts are in, now it’s time to get creative!

All types of fannish creations (fic, graphics, vids) are welcome; just comment here to claim a prompt (or two). You may claim as many prompts as you like, more than one person may claim each prompt, and you may claim your own prompt. There is no length requirement.

So that you can find it again, this post will be tagged {challenge} holiday fest 2011.

Submissions will be due at the last two weeks of December, during the period from December 18 - December 31. Don’t post them before then; these are holiday gifts to each other/the fandom.

I guess that’s it for the rules; on to the prompts.

Happy writing! *g*

( Prompts )

I’m happy to say that it looks like we have some interest in holding another Holiday Fest, so yay for that! And the consensus appears to be that we should stick with the Holiday/Winter Season theme.

Now it’s time to hit us with your prompts. We’ll take general (word or phrase) or more specific (scenario) prompts. The only requirement is that your prompt must have something to do with the holiday/winter season.

I’ll get us started with a few prompts so you can see what I mean:

Eggnog
Mistletoe
Sleigh Ride
Snowed In

Shaun wants to make this big romantic gesture for Zach at Christmas, but it falls through. Shaun is disappointed, but Zach tells/shows/both him how much he doesn’t mind.

Spiked eggnog makes Zach think it’s a really good idea to kiss Shaun under the mistletoe at his publisher’s Christmas party.

Zach and Shaun are in NYC (or someplace else with snow) over Christmas (for a book signing or art gallery show) and they go on a romantic sleigh ride through the city.

Zach and Shaun get snowed in for the holidays.

(Please note that you do not need to duplicate these prompts because they ~are going on the list. *g*)

Now it’s your turn! Comment here with your holiday/winter themed prompts, and I’ll collect them all in one list for claiming.

Dates to Remember:

~Please remember that you will be able to write fic, create graphics, vids, etc, so keep that in mind, also, when you submit your prompts.

~You will not be required to claim a prompt in order to submit a prompt, nor do you have to submit a prompt to claim a prompt, and you may claim your own prompt. Whew!

~There is no limit on the number of prompts you may submit. However, if you come back at a later time to submit more prompts, please do so in a new comment to this post rather than in a reply to your previous comment. This makes it easier for me to make sure I don't miss any.

Okay, now you guys say something! *g*
