Monthly Challenges: Jessica & Matt | Betty Ross

[flareonfury]

We are going to try and do something new this month (and hopefully from now on). I figured I'd add Monthly Challenges, where people can earn bonus points for their team! This is also a way to encourage more activity and maybe more writing? *fingers crossed*

Now for how this is going to work, you'll receive 10 points for using the "pairing" prompt and/or "character" prompt on TOP of the normal bi-weekly prompts. If you just write one or the other, you'll receive just 10 points, but if you do both that's 20 points on top of the normal 10 points per drabble.

The monthly Challenges will last from the 1st to the last day of the month at 11:59PM EST.
Please also be aware of the current "bi-weekly" prompt.

Now I've already used a character prompt before deciding this (Scarlet Witch), but don't worry, she'll be back again for a future month.

What if you don't like the pairing or character? You don't have to write them! They are just suggestions and a way for to see more mixture of characters/pairings. But if you want to try your hand at them, that's perfectly fine too! Encouraged even! Same thing goes if you write a poly ship, as long as two of the characters that are part of the "pairing" prompt appear, that's acceptable.

What if the work reads as more gen than a "pairing"? That's fine! That's kinda why I put the "&" instead of the "/" on the prompts themselves, so long as both characters show up in the work it would count! Also as long as you tag and/or mention that your drabble(s) fit the monthly challenge so I know to count them.

What if the character is more background/side character? Again perfectly fine and that would be acceptable, as long as you tag and/or mention that your drabble(s) fit the monthly challenge so I know to count them. 

When & How do we receive the monthly challenge banners? You'll receive the banners when I put the new Monthly Challenge next month, just like if I would be posting for the bi-weekly prompt. This time, however, anyone who participated in the Monthly Challenges will receive the banner.

Pairing: Jessica Jones & Matt Murdock

Character: Betty Ross

Feel free to comment here if you have any questions. I still need to update the Rules/Guidelines/FAQ to reflect the Monthly Challenges, but if anyone thinks of something please don't hesitate to ask!
