✸ round 2015: guess who? ✸
✸ | Guess Who?
We know, we know-the existence of this post reminds everyone that it is indeed a very sad time in every round of Kaisoommer: all the fics have irrefutably been posted, and nothing new will come to you this year. Alas, this is a loss, but as the optimists always say, the closing of one door always leads to the opening of another. While this round has no more fantabulous fics by our incredible writers to give you, let this post close the time of Moping and Sadness behind you and open another.
You see it before you-as Modperor penguin somehow grasps the door handle with a flipper and pulls it open, brilliant white-golden light bursts forth, only growing larger and larger; you are drawn toward it-you can do nothing but travel towards it-and soon, the brilliant, blinding light has enveloped you fully. A single trumpet blares dramatically in the background, and a deep, Morgan Freeman-like voice (perhaps it is Morgan Freeman) blasts over the loudspeaker.
WELCOME TO THE GUESS WHO? POST! it yells at you. You are tempted to cover your ears, but the words excite you. PERHAPS YOU DID NOT KNOW WHICH ROOM YOU JUST WALKED INTO, AND YOU ARE MISERABLY LOST, BUT IF YOU LOOK OVER THERE AT THE DOOR, well, first of all, you can't see it because of this blinding golden light, and second, actually, it's only a figment of your imagination, YOU WILL SEE THAT THE PENGUIN THAT LED YOU IN HAS CLOSED IT! SO EVEN IF YOU DON'T WANT TO PLAY, YOU ARE STUCK IN THIS ROOM AND YOU MIGHT AS WELL. HERE ARE THE RULES. PAY ATTENTION. I AM BASICALLY, MAYBE, MORGAN FREEMAN.
- DO NOT WORRY ABOUT GUESSING THE AUTHOR INCORRECTLY! No one is going to judge you! It is a game, but a game where everyone is a winner. If you guess wrong, the author gets to cackle evilly at you behind the screen, for it is likely that they altered their style a bit to trip you up. If you guess correctly, then you get to cackle evilly at the author. Either way, everyone is cackling evilly, and maniacally happy. This is good.
- BELOW, FIND THE AUTHOR BANK. Remember in second grade when you had vocabulary tests, and sometimes there was a word bank at the top so when you had to fill in the blanks, you could guess more easily? Well, this is your word bank! Every author who is a recipient on this list has also written a fic. We won't give you a list of the pinch-hitters-those are the bonus words!-but feel free to guess someone who isn't on the list if you've got a gut feeling!
- DON'T BULLY PEOPLE OR SAY NEGATIVE THINGS OR BASH ANYONE! We hope this is self explanatory. Modperor will be angry at you when you say negative things, and you all never want to see Modperor angry u__u
