The next contest opens in a few weeks, so time to start writing:


The official support thread on the Author's Hangout is here.


Details:

April Fool's (April 01)
themes: Stories (humorous or otherwise) of surprise meetings, humor, tricks, trick endings, and other themes of deception, chance, and/or misunderstandings (happy or otherwise)
starts: March 02
closes: March 23
winners announced: March 30

Because I find practical jokes unfunny, I seldom enter this contest (like maybe never?) but thought I would start an ideas thread anyhow if you want to play.

Unlike the valentine's contest, I will not post daily, only as inspiration strikes.

To start, a few ways to make the story more than a trick and a sex scene:

duelling tricks lead to love or just sex?

The initial victim tries to get even, leading to sex?

or combine a flashback to last year with what happens this year?

I've half-cooked a Valentine story that could be repurposed and finished as an AFD (April Fool's Day) tale.

In the original, a geeky kid accidentally brews touchable psychedelic aphrodisiac paint (*) for the V-Day cards he sends to female friends and family. In the AFD version, he deliberately paints the cards as a practical joke.

He thinks that touching the paint will drive recipients into sexual frenzies, seeking the nearest release. He doesn't realize that some of his DNA was mixed in, so they all seek HIM. This is fine until his sister's boyfriend touches her card.

* touchable psychedelic aphrodisiac: DMSO, DMT, Spanish Fly, etc

the fact you can name the drugs is sort of scary...

Brother and his chums move sis' bedroom into the yard.

Which becomes interesting when she decides "I'll show them" , and changes for bed al fresco...

Remember the scene in M*A*S*H where they rig the shower enclosure to collapse while Hot Lips is showering? What if we have a similar scene, maybe in a college dorm or whatever. But when the beautiful girl is exposed in all her glory, her glory turns out to include a juicy nine-inch long cock?

and the Dean gives Otter a choice between expulsion or sucking it?
 
April's Fools

Two young men play elaborate pranks on each other to try to attract the attention and affection of a lass named April.

Does it end in a threesome?

If April's older sisters May and June get in the action, it could get hairy. For fun, the stealthy sisters are identical triplets, so Tim and Tom are quite unaware of who they're wooing. Of course the girls' widowed identical mom Julia is involved. Cue the six-somes. And one supposed prank features tentacles. Hilarity ensues.
 
another moved bed scenario

this time the coed in the dorm, the frat boys move her bed into the elevator.

cue the mobile bordello. "Going gown" indeed.
 
I was always told the origins of April Fools was having a note stuck to someoe's back with 'Kick me' or the like on it. How about a timid young lass's best friend pins a note to her back without friend's knowledge saying 'Please ask me out' and then we see who reads it and follows?

I know, boring!

not boring, but what if the note read "Wanna Fuck?" or "Down To Fuck"?

How's this: the timid young lass happens to be red-green colorblind*. So her best friend, knowing this, knits her a sweater that says "I love to suck cock" on the front and the back, but our heroine can't see it. That leads to all sorts of adventures on campus.

*yes, I know this affects men more than women, but it could happen.

So put the sweater on a guy, see what hilarity ensues...
 
The curmudgeon.

co-workers or college classmates or siblings try to derive a way to get the sour puss to laugh at a prank. It turns out sex works.

I know it needs work to get from "prank" to "sex" but there it is.

Wikipedia gives various literary references, and even one Biblical, as theories of the first mention. Someone could take one of those and find inspiration...

My son-in-law is a Star Wars fan. He treasures the graphic I gave him of Darth Vader striding past Imperial stormtroopers with a KICK ME sign on his cape.

IIRC the Roman tradition was to sneak a dead fish into a target's pocket. A modern version replaces the fish with a sperm-filled condom or used tampon. For GOPs, use a half-dry dog turd. For LIT, use an aromatic aphrodisiac.
 
Aril 1st is a Thursday this year.

can you make anything of that?

A "thirsty Thursday at a college or pub?

Someone tries to convince the "victim" that they are Thor?

A play on "Thursday's child has far to go" from the song?
