Round 2: Suhobrationwelcome to round 2 of cottontales! For this round, we are preparing to celebrate Junmyeon's birthday and thought there would be no better way to do it than with a bunch of fics revolving around parties.Your assignment for this theme is exactly that: create a story that somehow involves a party or celebration of some sort. It doesn't have to be a birthday party, there's lots of reasons to celebrate! Maybe we find ourselves watching a romance unfold between the wedding planner and the caterer. Maybe there's a last minute disaster at the company's annual client conference that pushes our two main characters together. Who knows, maybe someone accepts a facebook invitation for an event that has nothing to do with them.the possibilities are endless! so grab your party hat, be prepared to clean up some glitter, and don't forget to send us an invite!
