ADMIN POST: The Double-Take Challenge

[cesperanza.livejournal.com]

Using my amazing adminstrative POWAH, I'm bumping vienna_waits's recently proposed challenge to the top of the list, partly because it's so good, and partly because Vienna is pretty much the only Billy Joel song I can stand my favorite Billy Joel song.

Here's the challenge: At least one character has to be somewhere you wouldn't expect to see him/her (i.e., Fraser sunbathing at a nude beach on Lake Michigan, Welsh just about anywhere other than the 27th, Ray Vecchio at a yoga class, Turnbull at an academic conference, etc.)

Today's Tuesday; challenge responses are due in two weeks, on March 29th at midnight!

Ray Vecchio at a yoga class, Turnbull at an academic conference, etc.

heeeheeeheee! Thank you for this giggle this morning. I look forward to the entries; what an excellent idea!

Oh good grief. I first read that as "At least one character has to be naked somewhere you wouldn't expect to see him/her..." Which, well, the Welsh example was very disturbing.

I'd blame nude, sunbathing Fraser, but I don't think that equation adds up right.

These comments are cracking me up! Naked Bob?!

And Ces knows where my name came from! It is amazing what's taken here on LJ; it was about the 50th name I tried and I was getting desperate. I do lurve me some BJ, though, particularly his older stuff. And "Vienna" is my absolute favorite song of his.

I'm still mulling over some ideas, but I'm pretty sure there won't be any naked Bob in my story. Or naked Welsh. Although that could be very funny if done properly.

Hello! I have a quick question about community rules: can I post a crossover here, if some of my mc's are Due South-ish?

Challenge suggestion:

Fraser exploring his sexual boundaries.

Really, need I go further with this? *g* (As a child, as a teenager, at the depot, as an adult... !)

hey you!!

two challenge suggestions. Some sort of 'dirty' challenge (people get dirty, talk dirty, dirty cops, etc) and also, how about a challenge where the writing *style* is the challenge. like, the story can be anything, but it has to be written as a fairy tale, or a fable, or in the tone of a film noir story, etc.
