section7mfu | The Once Upon a Time Affair PROMPT (Reply)

I know that this is a busy period for all but, this challenge is open for two weeks, so hopefully we will all find some time to write

The Prompt, theme, and rules can all be found below the cut. Don’t forget, everyone’s stories must begin with the prompt. You can post your stories at any time between now and the 6th of January.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask.

Have fun.

The Prompt –

The fireworks, which heralded the arrival of 1965, were spectacular, but {your choice of UNCLE agent} had no interest them. The hope of the new year had been superseded by the hope of survival.

The Theme –

As this prompt covers the New Year, I have chosen as your theme - Renewal.

Last Date for Posting –

6th January 2018

If you post your story in the Map Room, or on another site, please ensure that you include a link to it.

Challenge Rules

-Your story must begin with the exact prompt sentence /paragraph.
Occasionally, there will be customisable parts within the prompt. These will be written in red.

For example –

{Your Choice} means you can decide which character to place there. (It may not necessarily be any of the main characters.)

{His/her} can be changed to reflect the gender of your chosen character.

{Name of Place} means you can chose where your story is set.

-The story must be rooted in the Man from U.N.C.L.E. universe and reflect the time in which it is set.

-Stories can be posted on any day from the prompt day to the last day of posting (inclusive).

-Word Count – Minimum 500, with no maximum.

-All stories should be headed with, Your title - ‘The Once Upon a Time Affair’ - the date.

-Tags - please use once upon a time, gen, or gen-mature.

-Section VII is a Gen community, so stories should be appropriate, i.e. nothing explicit or overly-graphic. However, there is the Gen-Mature tag for anything containing violence, torture or mild Het. The Map Room should be used for Het stories, but again, nothing overly graphic.

-Also, as a courtesy to others, please use the LJ Cut, so as not to take up too much room on someone’s feed.
