Karma for completing December's batch, Sunset!! You also nailed the word count - impressive! *lights fireworks*

Hitting an exact word count always is difficult. I had to tweak it for a bit to make it happen.

You keep making pretty banners and I'll keep writing for them. Maybe I'll actually finish a drabble collection or two!

No worries, banners will keep coming; may that happen to our words as well. Lol

My entry for * A serpent, if it does not devour a serpent, does not become a dragon.*

This one forced me to write a stand alone drabble.

Never mind that. I just got an idea that should be much better than that generic drivel. I'll post the link when it goes up.

Now the right link to my entry:

I’m not sure if anyone has issued such a challenge before, but I think it would be fun to use proverbs and sayings as inspiration. You can either use them as lines or you can make their meaning your theme. Either way, you are free to interpret them as you will.

Rules
1. It can be a new story or an existing one.
2. It can be of any rating, but make sure to mention if it’s M or MA.
3. It can be a one-shot, chapter story, drabbles, or even fanart.
4. Each prompt will have a word count and a deadline. You cannot go over or below the full length for chapter stories depending if it’s a max or min, and you must not surpass the word count for drabbles. If the word count for drabbles is 100 then it must be a perfect drabble of exactly 100 words; otherwise, it’s up to you whether or not to use the extra words offered for drabbles. You have until midnight of the given deadline to submit your entries for each prompt. The only rule that applies for fanarts is the deadline.


Yay! I actually get a chance to do the Proverbial Challenge this year! This is gonna be fun...

@Kitana Tsukino-hime: Congrats on your first entry, love! I'll be doing some catching up on my reading this week, so expect a review.

P.S. Can you edit your post to include the rating please? I took a sneak peek and saw it was marked as MA. All M/MA rated entries entries must be marked accordingly for our underage readers. Thank you.
