That's right! Just three days remain to sign up for the 2024 Klapollo Minibang. We've got lots of newcomers and a fair few weird old mentor types. Sounds kind of familiar...

Check out our Info Doc and sign up using this form if it strikes your fancy!

(We appreciate your support, @aafancalendar!)

Wait, are we getting a translation for what Kirby is saying or am I mistaken about how Kirby speaks?

…..I can speak English…

Hello again, folks!

Thank you once again for your continued support. We've still got plenty of time for signups, but in the meantime, we wanted to answer some questions that you've asked!

Q: Will there be any enforcement of localized names (Haori vs. Rei, Holmes vs. Sholmes, etc.)?

A: Nope! Since the writing and art done for this event aren't a single product, we aren't worried about adhering to a specific localization. We just ask that writer and artist pairs come to an agreement for their collaborations!

Q: Will I have to write/draw/work with characters I'm not familiar with?

A: Nope! As a writer, you get to develop your own prompts, so there's no need to include characters you're unfamiliar with. As an artist, you'll get to select three (or more) prompts that you DO feel comfortable with. In addition, artists will be able to list any characters they're not familiar/comfortable with, no questions asked. If you're not planning to collaborate, you get to decide for yourself!

Q: If I sign up as a pinch hitter, am I held to the same requirements as a regular participant?

A: Nope! A pinch hitter writer will be asked to aim for 2.5k, and a pinch hitter artist won't be expected to create as complete and detailed a piece as someone who's been working on a team since the beginning. The most important thing is clearly communicating with mods and your new partner about what feels possible in the remaining creation period.

Q: Is it OK if some of my contact info changes after signing up?

A: Yep! Please just keep in touch with us so we have a way to contact you; email and Discord are the most vital things for us.

Thank you so much for all the questions so far! Please don't hesitate to reach out if any other questions or concerns cross your mind.

Hey writer friends! There's a fun, all-fandom, writing/art event taking place for fall. Cozytober! This is their second year and since they don't have a tumblr page, I thought I'd share the prompts!

For anyone participating in any of the other big fall events (@sicktember @whumptober @flufftober ) these prompts actually meld really well with those.

For more information about Cozytober rules, as well as a text version of the prompts, check out their AO3 Collection page [Here]

Happy writing!!

Answering a few questions from our Interest Check form (which you can still fill out 💜❤️) below the cut!

I'm new to this kind of event. How do I participate?

Good news! If you're interested in participating and you filled out the form to tell us so, you're already doing it right. For now, take a look through our Rules/FAQs document, and watch this blog for updates! The next big date for us is April 13th, when we'll officially open sign-ups via a form similar to the Interest Check.

Is it a problem if English isn't my native language?

Not at all! We're a global event, and we're happy to have anyone who wants to ramble about Klapollo with us. Entries and most communication should be in English for safety purposes, though, since the mods are only guaranteed to be able to moderate English.

Do I have to be established in the fandom to take part?

Nope! We'd love to be the event that sparks your first finished piece or your first fandom friendships! ❤️💜 Folks of all skill levels and at all levels of familiarity with the greater AA canon are so, so welcome. There's no selection process or anything—you just sign up on the 13th to commit to the rules and timeline, and we'll send you an email when things are ready.

Do you include beta reading?

All participants are allowed (and encouraged) to take beta reading roles to do peer reading, but there's no enforced beta period and no guarantee that anyone's piece will be beta read—it's up to individuals to make those connections. The same goes for adding alt-text to art; while we'd love to encourage everyone to make their pieces accessible, it's not enforced for this event, but there will be people in the server who will help anyone develop alt-text if desired. We do recommend using an email address/document sharing method that does not include your real actual legal name! We only ever need your fandom name, and we want everyone to take care if you plan to share your docs with anyone for beta reading.

Is it possible to pair up with someone we already know or who we previously worked with?

Definitely! on the sign-up form, there will be a field that allows you to enter the name/username of a partner you want to work with. Your partner will also need to enter your name in their copy of the form! There will be a grace period between the server opening and matchups being made during which people can contact mods to say "Hey! We just met each other in the chat, and now we want to work together!"

How are you so awesome?

Maybe we're born with it! Maybe it's the Gavinners-branded cosmetics. (Thank you <3 We think you're awesome, too.)

The judge is supposed to be biased in favor of the PROSECUTION! That's how it always is in Ace Attorney

Oh one hand, yes. On the other… Mythra is the prosecutor.

Eh, I don’t need a biased judge to get me through this case.

Maybe I’ll find a detective whose in favor of the prosecutor to change things up?

"Barok van Zieks is absolutely covered in scars from all his years being attacked" is like, pretty solidly in fanon at this point but I hope the other results of this constantly happening is that he fights dirty. No amount of being a respectable, well-trained gentleman who fights with honor is going to matter after a certain point.

I hope he bites people. I hope he spits blood onto the ground. I hope he has broken bones and left men bleeding in the street while he himself has to limp back to safety half alive. He may have never taken a life, but I hope he's come close.

can you imagine if instead of the narrative framing dahlia as a manipulative mastermind for.. "dating" her adult tutor when she was 14, it had actually taken that plot point seriously? if she was you know. rightfully recognized as his victim rather than the other way around. if her framing him for her own fake kidnapping was not just because he was an easy target and "oh it's so sad he just genuinely loved her poor guy :(" but because she felt trapped, by him, by her father, by how she's lacked agency in everything that's happened in her life, and that this was the only way out she could think of.
