If no one, not even Alef, is going to go first, I'll have to rise to the occasion. Perhaps I should have just taken rachelredbum's suggestion to make Round 3 "Sci-fi & Fantasy" rather than try to spread a little Christmas cheer. If no one else, not even Alef, will go first, I'll just have to rise to the occasion to keep this from being a complete bust (while we wait for Jenny's poem). Janine has made it a little easier for me to get close to my limit of 6 items by self-plugging HER own poem. Without further ado (and sticking to the Christmas theme throughout):
1) THE ELF, by Neil (M/F, 2,526). You'll notice the "elf" theme throughout my recommendations. In this one, flight attendant Byrony, dressed as an elf for a holiday-themed excursion to Finland, is mistaken for the real thing and introduced to a Father Christmas custom that leaves her backside rather sore.
2) ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS A SPANKING, by Kephren (M/F, 5,464) As part of a college fundraiser, a coed writes a letter to Santa requesting a Christmas spanking, with the hope that it might be administered by her boyfriend who is on the committee. That is not exactly how it plays out.
3) MY NAME IS MARIGOLD, by FionaBlue (M/F, 3072) A little Christmas roleplay with her boyfriend leave Iva Mae to some sexy sore-bottom fun as "Santa's elf," gaining her a new name in the process.
4) CAROL'S CHRISTMAS, by flowerchild (M/F 6,616) In recovery mode after the dissolution of her long-term marriage, Carol spends Christmas with her brother's family. In the process she re-connects with her siblings's best friend, dredging up some painful decades-old memories. In the event, Brandt overcomes her reluctance on sparks fly.
5) THE COOKIE THAW EFFECT, by Alef (M/F, 4,609) Two scientists seeking, to explaining the annual December warming trend in Norway, come up with a a hypothesis having to do the the heat generated by thousands of birched behinds. Can it be?
6) RED-BOTTOMED ELF, by minidancer (M/F, 4,044) Initially resenting the costume her boss/boyfriend has required her to wear for the company Christmas party, Sophie finds her holiday spirit after a bare-bottom "attitude adjustment."
Having selected more than 6 stories in order to have back-ups in case someone else posted one or more of them first (no such luck!) I'm once again using the authority of my position as Challenge Initiator to a extend to an extra story.
7) FESTIVE FESTERING, by Kia (M/F, 1,918) With holiday decorating not going according to plan, a pouting Valerie leaves the fire in the fireplace unattended, to her husband's displeasure. He breaks out the strap he had intended to give her for Christmas in order to give her some pre-holiday correction. |
