| sageness suggested a Barrel Full of Monkeys challenge... and I thought she was insane. But then I thought, Due South fandom? Pretty damned wacky! It could totally work! No, really! Comedy! Fraser insisting that something is "more fun than a barrel full of monkeys!" and (either) Ray snorting into his hand, "Yeah, right." Or literal monkeys. Twelve Monkeys. Casefic revolving around the Lincoln Park Zoo. Casefic revolving around a comedian. Dief befriends a Helper Monkey for the disabled and Turtle is jealous? (Hi, stranger things have happened ON THE SHOW.) Or barrels full of things that aren't monkeys (smuggled arms, etc.), despite being labeled as such. There are LOTS of possibilities. So. Monkeys and/or barrels, literal or otherwise -- that's the deal. Got that? It's July 7 -- stories are due by midnight, July 21, Chicago time. | |

| Time to give the Martyr challenge a break. You can find the 2 challenge entries here. New challenge coming right up! | |
|
| Gen, 1741 words. Fraser, RayK, and a seemingly impossible situation. "What on earth do you want me to tell you?" Fraser snaps finally, folding his arms across his chest. "That you make me feel terribly inadequate?"( The Weird Life ) | |

| Title: Five Times Ray Let Fraser Fuck Him Author: arrow00Pairing: Fraser/RayK Rating: NC-17 (yis) Categories: FT, PWPish Warnings: none Wordcount: 2,300 Summary: Just...a whole lotta fucking. ( 5 Times Ray Let Fraser Fuck Him ) | |
|
| arrow00 suggested a Martyr challenge: God knows Fraser seems to inspire martyrdom in almost everyone he interacts with: RayV and his poor suits and exploding Rivieras. RayK on the wing of an airplane and, oh, look! Turtles! Lt. Welsh and the eternal eye-roll.
And, of course, there's Fraser himself, who could out-martyr Jesus probably. Go forth and make them suffer (and then maybe *koff* make it up to them, if you're so inclined). *g* It's June 19 -- stories are due by midnight, July 3, Chicago time. | |

|
| Title: The Surprising Tale of a Pair of Beavers Author: Aingeal Pairing: Fraser/Vecchio Rating: G Summary: Ray tells Fraser there's only one way to inform their son about the realities of the world. Notes: Part of the Bobbyverse. Thank you to china_shop for keeping the challenge open. And big thanks to leda_speaks for all her hard beta work. ( The Surprising Tale of a Pair of Beavers ) | |
|
| aingeal8c suggested an Inuit Story challenge. Fic could be set during Fraser's childhood or during canon (or after!), with Quinn or Eric or someone else telling traditional folk tales; Fraser could tell one to sway perps, or to distract one of the Rays or someone else (Welsh or Thatcher! hee!); or the Inuit story could be recounted second- or third-hand, say by Kowalski to Vecchio. Or what if Welsh ordered Huey and Dewey to be more like Fraser... Stories from other First Nations traditions are also welcome. It's May 26 -- stories are due by midnight, June 10, Chicago time. | |

| Title: The Gray Menace Author: keerawaCharacters: Ray K, Ray V Rating: PG Length: 500 words Thanks to: My betas, akamine_chan and Steven, for reminding me that other people do not live in my head. Disclaimer: The characters belong to Alliance/Atlantis. I just feed them when they follow me home. Warnings: Do I need to warn for odd and mildly dystopian future-fic with absolutely no sex? Summary: Wait-times at O’Hare had gotten worse since Terminal 6 burned down in last year’s Gray Panther riots. ( The Gray Menace ) | |
|
| Title: The Love Song of S. Raymond Kowalski Author: Aria Pairing: Fraser/Kowalski Rating: PG-13-ish? Word Count: 4960 Summary: Ray dared to smush his experimental hair down in hats in Canada, dared to eat everything Fraser gave him including the freaky bark tea, dared ... dared to let Fraser turn his world inside out and meet his eyes afterward. Notes: Takes quite a few things wholesale from various of Fraser's speeches about Victoria; also quotes the Eliot poem and, why not, a Dr Seuss book. ( The Love Song of S. Raymond Kowalski ) | |
|
| Title: Washing us clean Author: Aingeal Pairing: Fraser/Vecchio Rating: PG Wordcount: 1161 Summary: This could be the happiest day of Ray's life. Notes: Thanks ot leda_speaks for beta. Post-Victoria's Secret. ( Washing us clean ) | |

| mergatrude suggested an Apology challenge. What does it take to make one of the characters say (or show) that they're sorry? How do they do it, and when they do, is their apology accepted? It's May 8 -- stories are due by midnight, May 22, Chicago time. Reminder: You can make suggestions for future challenges on any admin post. More ideas are always welcome -- put on your thinking caps and go crazy. :-) | |
