belgian quaffle Posted February 16, 2020 Posted February 16, 2020 ohhhh i love me a modern au so call me a maybe. might be the kick i need to start writing again! follow up: can i finish one of the many wips i have started sitting in my drafts (idk off the top of my head the jily olympic curling au) or does that not count as no prewrittens?
Darling_take_off_the_mask Posted February 16, 2020 Posted February 16, 2020 Please save me from myself. I'm a maybe, with two plot bunnies already.
dirigibleplums Posted February 16, 2020 Posted February 16, 2020 this challenge was made for me. i'm in
dreamshadow Posted February 16, 2020 Posted February 16, 2020 Meeeee, because I need more excuses to write Murphy and Emma, thanks
sunshine_locks Posted February 17, 2020 Posted February 17, 2020 this might be a dumb question but... what *exactly* constitutes a modern au? does it have to be a muggle au or can it have magic? i'm sure i've written a modern au before, but i'm not entirely sure that's what i called it, ahaha

northbound24 Posted February 17, 2020 Posted February 17, 2020 I'm in and already have a crazy idea- Draco gets his reluctant cousin in on the crime of the century: stealing the County Inter-School Rugby Championship Trophy from their rival school's team.
clevernotbrilliant Posted February 17, 2020 Posted February 17, 2020 I'm in! I'm going to combine it with the Bedsharing Challenge if that's okay?
magemadi Posted February 17, 2020 Posted February 17, 2020 helloooo taylor! are you familiar with The 100? cause if so, i'd love to just combine this with my only one bed challenge entry as it's technically already a modern au

sunshine_locks Posted February 21, 2020 Posted February 21, 2020 okay so, i technically have a modern au that are wips on my ap and my docs, so how do you feel about a new chapter being an entry ? (if not i also have some ideas that i've been wanting to do so like it's no biggie) (also, i don't wanna jinx it but you may see multiple entries from me?) (i love how this is what inspired me to finally write again)
sunshine_locks Posted February 24, 2020 Posted February 24, 2020 technically an entry+ (M)? (if you consider it one of course!) (also chapter 6 is the newest one!)
Jen25 Posted March 17, 2020 Posted March 17, 2020 Aahh I'm a sucker for modern aus... Count me in as a maybe
