  ReillyJade EDIT: This challenge is now closed. Sorry! :( Hello all! I'm here with a new challenge for everyone - a challenge to write about a character experiencing something for the first time. There really is a first time for everything, from words to kisses to broken hearts, and I thought it would be fun to play with them a little bit. I have a list of thirty of life's "firsts" that almost everyone experiences throughout the course of their lives (with the exception of a couple.) Some have been worded so they are more suited for the wizarding world. After you pick a number to get your "first," you have free reign. The characters, setting, etc. are all your choice, though I'll be happy to provide you with a character, pairing, quotes, or some prompts if you need some extra inspiration. Try to get into what the character (or the onlooker in the case of a "baby's first") is feeling as they experience the given event for the first time. Any rating or genre is fair game (the one exception is mpreg - it's just weird, I'm sorry.) Your story should be at least 500 words to give it a little substance, but other than that, it can be as short or as long as you want, including multi-chapter. Double-claims allowed. :) On a side note, the last five "firsts" on the list (26-30) are a bit more mature and will most likely require an M rating, or a T at the very least. If you're not comfortable with writing such topics, please choose between numbers 1 and 25. If you have any questions, post them here or feel free to send a PM my way. I'm hoping for a good turnout for this challenge! There's no due date, so take your time and, most importantly, have fun!

 hppjdragpncode I'll try first 14 please. I really shouldn't commit to another challenge, but I really want to try this. 7/28/2011 #2 |
 Gamma Orionis I've just finished two challenges, so I'll take this! I'd like number 28 please ;) 7/28/2011 #3 |
| ReillyJade hppjdragpncode: Welcome to the challenge! You haven chosen the first broomstick ride (in lieu of the first time we Muggles drive a car lol.) Have fun! :) 7/28/2011 #4 |
| ReillyJade Gamma Orionis: Thanks for joining in! You have chosen the first "talk"...you know, the talk. ;-) Have fun! 7/28/2011 #5 |
| Gamma Orionis Ah, that talk :) Would you object to this being combined with another challenge? 7/28/2011 #6 |
| ReillyJade Gamma Orionis: As long as the host of the other challenge is okay with it, it's fine with me. :) 7/28/2011 #7 |
| Gamma Orionis Awesome. Thank you! 7/28/2011 #8 |
| Appointment Twenty nine! :) 7/28/2011 #9 |
| Afterworld EverDawn Hello! Feel free to call me EverDawn for short (saves you some typing lol) Can I have 1 and 3 pretty please? 7/28/2011 #10 |
| ReillyJade Gamma Orionis: No problem! :) astronauts: Hello! :) #29 is the first kill. If you need to switch this one, let me know - obviously it's geared more towards the Death Eaters and I know not everyone is comfortable writing them. EverDawn: Hi there! #1 is Baby's first steps...aww! #3 is the first good grade/bad grade - you can choose which one to better suit whoever you choose as a character. :) 7/28/2011 .

| Appointment It's absolutely perfect! I love love love it. Could I have one prompt? 7/28/2011 #12 |
| ReillyJade astronauts: Oh good, I didn't think anyone would be willing to take that one! XD Your prompt is "gown." A little weird, I know, but it's the first word I came up with lol. 7/28/2011 #13 |
| Appointment Hmm, I think I've got an idea for it.. do I have to use it though? 7/28/2011 #14 |
| ReillyJade astronauts: Oh no, you don't have to. I see a prompt simply as something to trigger an idea - I don't think they need to be "used" explicitly, if that makes any sense at all haha. 7/28/2011 #15 |
