Seventh Anniversary Fic Readings

While we all enjoy reading fic on our own terms, it can be especially fun to hear stories read aloud! To close out this year's anniversary celebrations, we'll once again be hosting fic readings over Discord voice chat. The premise is simple: each person brings a PG-13-rated excerpt from a fic they'd like to read (or have read), 1000 words or less. That can be your own fic, or it can be someone else's--just get the author's permission first. This thread will serve as a repository of scenes so that readers can easily find the text if they're reading another person's scene.

You should come prepared to read your own story. While I expect we'll have multiple people interested in reading other people's stories, there's no guarantee that your particular fic will be among them.

The voice chat reading is scheduled for Saturday, May 9th at 8:00 PM EST (11:00 PM UTC).

Want to read others' stories but nothing of your own, or interested in simply listening in? No need to sign up in this thread! I'll add a Discord event for the reading so you can receive a ping when it kicks off, but drop-ins are also welcome.

All that said, if you'd like to have your fic read as part of this event, please post below with a PG-13-rated excerpt of at most 1000 words!
