sign up posts don't close, right? so we can sign up any time?

[5thofficial]

This sign-up post will stay open up to a week before the stories are due. The deadline for submitting your story is 13 January 2012, 11:59pm GMT.

so... any time before January 7th, yup! although no guarantees that the club you're interested in will still have slots left, so check in if you're nervous about that.

okay thanks!

I...very possibly am going to regret this in about two minutes but I'm signing up for Mario Balotelli/Roberto Mancini, Manchester City, slash.

eep. cornerflag is about writing outside of your comfort zone, right?

[nahco3]

I suppose this is kind of complicated...I'll probably also be looking at their relationship when they were together at Inter, as well as in the present at City. I'm not sure, then, which club you'd want to count me as writing for. I suppose City is easier?

[5thofficial]

either is fine, the difference is purely semantic so long as they were indeed both at the club at the same time. whichever you prefer!

[nahco3]

I think City it shall be then!

FC Barcelona, Bojan Krkic / Sergio Busquets, slash

I can't believe I'm doing this, let alone with the idea that's currently floating in my head, but uh, here we go.

Bayern Munich, Philipp Lahm/Andreas Ottl, ...slash. Kind of. Um.

Is it still slash if one person is presenting of the opposite sex?

oh god i'm going to regret this aren't i

[5thofficial]

hmm, that's a good question! do you mean cross-dressing or transgender? the closest cornerflag has come to the issue, as far as I know, is a genderswap AU, and that was classified as het. if the character in question identifies as female, I would lean towards het, but it's your call, and I'll list it as whatever you prefer.

[fandomonymous]

well, crossdressing to figure out whether or not ze is trans* or not. (In the real world, as far as we know, both are cis male though.) Let's call it slash for now, I guess. :P

[5thofficial]

all right, so it shall be listed! you can always change it later if you want.

[postmodernpippo]

Manchester United, Robbie Savage/David Beckham, slash. God help me.

[5thofficial]

it's yours! :)
