ZenYuki Week 2023
It has almost been a year since our first ZenYuki Week, and we decided to celebrate again this year, just a day sooner than last year.
ZenYuki Week 2023 takes place the week of June 4th through June 10th. About a month from now.
The incredible prompts for the week, itself, were brainstormed by @noctusfury .
The theme is “Summer” this year.
Please @ this blog, in case Tumblr goofs up or we miss your posts somehow. Please tag your submissions as #ZenYuki Week 2023, which we will check, to find posts as well. We hope you have a lot of fun and really enjoy this event!
The prompts are also listed down below:
Day One: Fireflies
Day Two: Park
Day Three: Barbeque
Day Four: Constellations
Day Five: Warmth
Day Six: Festival/Fireworks
Day Seven: Free Day / AU
We hope that you’ll be able to participate in our second annual ZenYuki Week. We look forward to the creations you’ll come up with. Hope to see you soon.

Shining Summer Memories
Playlist for Zenyuki Week 2023 by @zenyuki-festival
Glad my Zenyuki playlist draft had songs to fit this year’s prompts! Arranged the songs in order of the daily prompts (and surprisingly “Ordinary” was the only one that was a bit of a stretch... but I love the new orchestra version too much not to use!). Also thanks to @soya-ix for the Taylor song inspiration 😊
Shining Summer Memories
Sweet Nothing- Taylor Swift (Day One: Fireflies)
The Ballad of Laura and Mike- Matt Pond PA (Day Two: Park)
Ordinary (Revolving Doors Version)- Copeland (Day Three: Barbeque)
Snow On The Beach- Taylor Swift (Day Four: Constellations)
Dancing with Our Hands Tied- Taylor Swift (Day Five: Warmth)
There Cannot Be a Close Second- Copeland (Day Six: Festival/Fireworks)
Summary lyrics and daily prompts are cited after the cut:
Sweet Nothing- Taylor Swift (Day One: Fireflies)
I spy with my little tired eye
Tiny as a firefly
A pebble that we picked up last July
Down deep inside your pocket
We almost forgot it
You say, "What a mind"
This happens all the time
And the voices that implore, "You should be doing more"
To you, I can admit that I'm just too soft for all of it
All that you ever wanted from me was sweet nothing
The Ballad of Laura and Mike- Matt Pond PA (Day Two: Park)
Would you promise to try not to die?
That’s the only fear of mine
There could be more but I want people to hear you
Singing bout the stains in the fire
I’m good at worrying
When you’re gone out west
The garden’s doing fine
The rabbits are my friends
I think I believe in you more than I believe in myself
Ordinary- Copeland (Day Three: Barbeque- this theme is a bit of a stretch but it reminds me of them sharing everyday meals together)
Today was fine I woke up late like I always do
Made work just in the nick of time
And thought of you
And when I returned
I found you just like I always do
Waiting for me like you always are
Since you came along
My days are ordinary
We laugh just like yesterday
And I kiss you like the day before
And I hold you just like ordinary
Perhaps when the day is new
We'll find tomorrow is just ordinary too
Tomorrow came and my shadow it was growing long
I came home to find you singing songs
Just the same
And today it seems
You're smiling like you always are
Everyday it's the same old thing
Snow On The Beach- Taylor Swift (Day Four: Constellations)
One night, a few moons ago
I saw flecks of what could've been lights
But it might just have been you
Passing by unbeknownst to me
Flying in a dream, stars by the pocketful
You wanting me tonight feels impossible
But it's comin' down, no sound, it's all around
Like snow on the beach
My smile is like I won a contest
And to hide that would be so dishonest
And it's fine to fake it 'til you make it
'Til you do, 'til it's true
Dancing with Our Hands Tied- Taylor Swift (Day Five: Warmth)
I loved you in secret
First sight, yeah, we love without reason
My love had been frozen
Deep blue, but you painted me golden
Oh, and you held me close
Oh, how was I to know that
I could've spent forever with your hands in my pockets
Picture of your face in an invisible locket
You said there was nothing in the world that could stop it
I loved you in spite of
Deep fears that the world would divide us
So, baby, can we dance
Oh, through an avalanche?
Oh, 'cause it's gravity
Oh, keeping you with me
There Cannot Be a Close Second- Copeland (Day Six: Festival/Fireworks)
You've got an extra special heart
A perfect light that shines through
And it seems the hardest part
Is shining back at you
So forgive me
'Cause I don't know what to do
When you look at me
There can be no hesitation
There cannot be a close second to you

A Chance To Sink Into The Crowd And Be Together
@zenyuki-festival Here’s my fic for Day Six! I filled both of the prompts for today! And we’re definitely back to our regularly scheduled fluff, that I only sort of deviated on during Day Three, I think?
