Event Rules and Info

Please read this post before you send an ask!

WHUMPTOBER is a month-long, prompt-based creation challenge (think: Inktober, but whumpier). There are 31 official themes this year - one for each day of the month - which can be used, skipped, or combined in any way you’d like. They are meant to serve as inspiration without being taken literally (e.g. you don’t have to include the exact wording of prompts into your work). Feel free to run rampant on interpretation. For example, if the prompt is “flame", you could create something with reference to a candle/campfire, your character could have suffered a burn, or the flame could be a reference to an ‘old flame’ - an old relationship. It’s truly down to you!

In total, there are 4 prompts for each day. These are optional suggestions and can be used in conjunction with the theme, or as options/alternatives.  We want to give everyone as much creative freedom as possible, as well as increase event accessibility for folks with triggers and squicks. There is also a list of 15 alternative prompts that can be subbed in for any day, again to give participants as much creative freedom as possible.

Creators can PRODUCE work in any media they choose, including but not limited to: writing, visual artwork, photo/video/audio edits, paper crafts and elaborate recommendation lists (not just a list of links). Creators can PARTICIPATE as much or as little as they want (i.e. you don’t have to do ALL the prompts if you don’t want to) and prompts can be used in any order. They are also free to use even after the event ends.

When uploading Whumptober content to your blog, be sure to tag it with:

#whumptober2024 …..(the event tag)

#no.1, #no.2, #no.3, …..(theme number)

#bruises, #stabbing, …..(the theme or specific prompt you chose)

#altprompt …..(if you use an altprompt, tag the post with the number of the prompt you replace)

#fandom or #OC, …..(ironman, original content, oc, etc.)

#medium …..(gifs, fic, podcast, art, etc.)

#teeth, #etc …..(trigger warnings & any additional tags. Keep in mind not to add “tw” in front but only use the word/trigger itself)

#nsfwhump …..(only for nsfw content)

#your own tags go here

PLEASE BE DILIGENT WITH YOUR TAGGING. Only properly tagged posts are considered for archiving on the official @whumptober-archive blog. They must be tagged in the order above. An elaborate post about our tagging system can be found [here]

Unfortunately, due to the sheer number of participants in recent years, we cannot guarantee your work will be archived. A random selection of properly tagged posts from all genres will be reblogged each day.

Whumpers who produce content for 31 total theme days are considered event completionists and will be tagged in a masterpost at the end of the month. A form will be published at the beginning of November asking you to tell us if you completed. This is based on trust and we will not check this.

Questions not addressed in one of our many event info posts can be directed to this blog. We will not answer any questions that have been answered in the FAQs or rules already.

Thanks for reading, and happy whumping!

I need him! But I don't have enough resources for a memory card I likely won't use and demon cards I don't want/need.

[dc-rarepair-week]

Rules & Info (DC Rarepair Week 2025)

Must be a rarepair! (if you are uncertain if your pairing counts, you can go to AO3 and see how many works it has lol)*

Must be within the DC fandom.

This can be either a platonic or a romantic pairing just make sure you indicate which (mainly regarding fics)**

Submissions can be SFW or NSFW but they MUST be properly tagged AND follow the rules and terms of service of the platform you are posting on (Tumblr/AO3 👈see links)***

All posts should be tagged #dc rarepair week 2025 or @dc-rarepair-week

Have fun!

*Please know that I am not going to be policing the pairings. I'm using ao3 as a guide for myself (and for those who ask) but I'll let everyone make their own judgments. If you believe that your ship does not get a lot of love and attention, then go ahead and use them! 😁

**AO3 pairing tags: "&" = platonic "/" = romantic if something is ambiguous, you should probably use both tags to be safe

***please be aware that if something is not properly marked mature, that should be, I will reach out to you to have that fixed before I will reblog it. If it is not corrected, I will not be able to reblog it here (marking something as mature hides the content for those who do not wish to see it). Also, if it violates the community guidelines, I will not be able to reblog it here at all (I am not looking to get banned).

zukaang week 2023: rules, prompts, and faqs!

whoooooo! it's time again!

if you have any other questions, comments, or concerns, please feel free to reach out. i am so excited for this event, and i hope you all are too :)

image text underneath

prompt list:

day 1: opposites attract/parallels

day 2: firebending masters/dancing

day 3: daydreams/desires

day 4: free space!

day 5: avatar state/uncontrolled

day 6: scars/facial marks

day 7: spirit world/past lives

rules and guidelines:

All works must focus on the romantic relationship between Zuko and Aang. Other ships are welcome, as long as Zuko and Aang are front and center. 

There are 2 prompts for each day. You can choose one or both of them to inspire your work. If none of the prompts speak to you, feel free to create your own Zukaang content. The prompts are meant to promote creativity, not restrict it!

NSFW/Mature content is allowed and encouraged, as long as you tag everything appropriately. So on tumblr, that means following their guidelines for NSFW images. On AO3, that means giving your fic the appropriate rating and tags.

Any kind of creative content is allowed! Fanfiction, fanart, edits, playlists, headcanons, moodboards, ANYTHING!

As always, if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all. This is to promote others’ creativity and create a positive community, and that is done through encouragement and support. 

Have fun!

frequently asked questions:

how do i participate?

Create your content and post it on tumblr. If you post on ao3, make sure to share the link on tumblr. Also make sure to add it to the Zukaang Week ao3 collection, which will be posted about later. Tag this blog in the main body of your post (@zukaangweek). In the tags, tag “zukaang week 3023" 

If we don’t reblog your post within 24 hours, feel free to send us a message with the link! I’m sure we all know how unreliable the tumblr tagging system is, we would never intentionally not reblog someone’s post!

2. if i’m not a creator, how can i support zukaang week?

The best way to support content creators leading up to and during Zukaang Week is to let them know you support them! Reblog and comment on their work, send zukaang content into this blog for us to post, etc. We’ll be reblogging zukaang content from now up until the week itself. Supporting that work now will encourage creators for the event week itself.

[fallout4bigbang]

What Timezone Is The Fallout 4 Big Bang Schedule On?

An obvious question that has yet to be answered - when we say fanfiction submissions are due on a particular date, art submissions on another, what exactly do we mean?

When it comes to no-pressure dates, such as "OCT 29 Signups Open", "DEC 3 Fic Claiming Opens", and "DEC 17 Groups Assigned", the day begins at 00:00:01 Eastern Time, which is to say any announcement posts will likely be made around 00:01 (or for you non 24-hr clock folks, 12:01 AM) and the Tumblr blog will likely be awake to answer questions and help out between the hours of 11:00 (AM) and 23:59 (11:59 PM) Eastern Time.

When it comes to the deadlines, "NOV 19 Signups Close", "NOV 26 Summaries Due", "DEC 10 Fic Claiming Closes", "MAR 11 Fics Due", and "APR 1 Art Due", the deadlines are quite lenient, with the latest possible submission time being in UTC -12 at 23:59. This is into the next day for most folks, and for a select few even into the day after that!

These dates are however deadlines. You can start submitting signups and fic claims at the beginning of an "Open" date, as soon as you see the post with the form for it, and you have quite a while to join. When it comes to the "Fics Due" and "Art Due" dates, there is months of advance notice. There is some time between the due dates and posting week, for organizational reasons. The posting week is set already and will likely not be changing.

If you need an extension, for whatever reason, we ask you tell us before the due date.

Hope that helps, and isn't too confusing! If you see a change that would make the event better, feel free to send an ask, anonymous or otherwise.

Summer Won't Last Forever; 100 Follower Event (Closed)

Technically past the OG 100, but oh well; better a little late than never! And thank you for the support, and I'm happy that people are enjoying the silly little stories I write. Now; onto the event!

Fandom

Just TWST at the moment. You can request the main cast, side characters, and staff!

Duration

I will be holding this event for 10 requests for followers. Once this is filled, I will be closing the event. This is so I don't overwork myself. The only exception will be for mutuals. Mutuals get special treatment, yes.

Once they are filled I will close the ask box until I'm done writing them, which. The ask box will then return after the event.

For mutuals, hit me up in messages if I close the ask box before you can get in ^v^

Rules

1 request per person; the only exception I may make is for mutuals (depending on engagement).

1 character per request; but do include two backups in case I already received an ask for X character with X prompt (also in case there are a lot of requests for one character). You may also include a backup prompt in case it has already been used.

Please include if you would like it to be platonic or romantic in nature.

No NSFW.

If you are on Anon, do feel free to leave an emoji (see here for taken emojis)

As a reminder, I typically only write gender-neutral reader (they/them/their's/you). I make exceptions for trans reader though (just include gender identity and pronouns please).

Ortho and Grim are strictly platonic.

Anything romantic will be aged up; imagine the cast to be in an actual college.

~ Now onto the Event ~

Hot days fall into cool nights. Carnivals arrive in town. Long days spent at the beach or community pool. Fond memories made with friends. But, summer won't last forever.

Prompts

Stargazing

Let's beat the heat

Beach day

Farmer's market

Road trip

Carnival fun

Campfire antics

By the babbling brook

Long-distance relationship

Caught in the rain

Also, feel free to leave up to 3 emojis in brackets if you want to add anything extra. The majority of these should be fluff, but feel free to indicate if you would like something other than fluff in your ask!

Example; May I request *character* with *prompt* and (🌻🌻🌻). Could it please be platonic and fluffy?

These will be in the form of drabbles; which may range between 300 and 900 words depending on if the muse of writing inspiration strikes me or if I get carried away. Knowing me, I may get carried away for some ^v^;

Once this event is done I'll be heading back to writing for the Soul Match AU; which will be none other than the resident wet cat, Idia Shroud *ominous chortling*

Tags (aka my mutuals that I have on my main ^v^)

@eynnwwyjth, @krenenbaker, @azulashengrottospiano, @silvers-numberonefan, @twistwonderlanddevotee, @ithseem, @inkybloom-luv, @leonistic

As a reminder, do not put my work — or others for that matter — into AI as it steals. Link to Masterlist

All works will be under the tags #dove does events & #100 follower event.

Whumptober 2023 Event Info & Rules

Event Info & Rules

~ Please read our extensive event info posts before sending us an ask ~

WHUMPTOBER is a month-long, prompt-based creation challenge (think: Inktober, but whumpier). There are 31 official themes this year - one for each day of the month - which can be used, skipped, or combined in any way you’d like. The 'theme' of each day is the line of lyrics.

The prompts are merely to serve as inspiration without being taken literally (e.g. you don’t have to include the exact wording of prompts into your work). Feel free to run rampant on interpretation. For example, if the prompt is "flame", you could create something with reference to a candle/campfire, your character could have suffered a burn, or the flame could be related to an 'old flame' - an old relationship. It's truly down to you!

In total, there are 4 prompts for each day: there's lyrics, an object, a trope and a line of dialogue to choose from. We want to give everyone as much creative freedom as possible, as well as increase event accessibility for folks with triggers and squicks. There is also a list of 15 alternative prompts that can be subbed in for any day, again to give participations as much creative freedom as possible.

Creators can PRODUCE work in any media they choose, including but not limited to: writing, visual artwork, photo/video/audio edits, paper crafts and elaborate recommendation lists (not just a list of links). Creators can PARTICIPATE as much or as little as they want (i.e. you don’t have to do ALL the prompts if you don’t want to) and prompts can be used in any order. They are also free to use even after the event ends.

If you are uploading Whumptober content to your blog, be sure to tag them with:

#whumptober2023 …..(the event tag)

#no.1, #no.2, #no.3 …..(theme/theme number)

#lyric, #bruises, #stabbing,  …..(the theme or specific prompt you chose)

#fandom or #OC, ... (ironman, originalcontent, oc ...)

#medium …..(gifs, fic, podcast, art, etc.)

#teeth, #etc …..(trigger warnings & any additional tags. Keep in mind not to add “tw” in front but only use the word/trigger itself, because tumblr sucks)

#nsfwhump …..(only for nsfw content)

#your own tags go here

PLEASE BE DILIGENT WITH YOUR TAGGING. Only properly tagged posts are considered for archiving on the official @whumptober-archive blog. They must be tagged in the order above. An elaborate post about our tagging system can be found [here]

Unfortunately, due to the sheer number of participants in recent years, we cannot guarantee your work will be archived. A random selection of properly tagged posts from all genres will be reblogged each day.

Whumpers who produce content for 31 total theme days are considered event completionists and will be tagged in a masterpost at the end of the month. A form will be published at the beginning of November asking you to tell us if you completed the event. You do not need to post anything you have created, we rely on trust and we will not check this.

[lunarcry]

lov his lil outfits

[quiobibingo]

Rules & Info

The relationship between Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan must be the focus of the fanwork, and that relationship can be either gen or romantic.

The fanwork must be a new piece of work: a. New work posted to a pre-existing series (i.e. a part 2, not a chapter 2) is allowed. b. New chapter posted to a pre-existing fic/WIP (i.e. chapter 1 was already posted prior to cards going out) is not allowed.

No under 18 spicy content, i.e. both characters must be over 18 in NSFW/smut fills.

Label, rate, and tag your fills accordingly. Tag your Tumblr posts sharing your entries and completed bingos for us to reblog appropriately. Clearly indicate in your posts whether the entry is NSFW and if any content notes or trigger warnings apply. a. If using Tumblr to post your entries, the content of your written entries must be below a cut, and all NSFW or triggering content must be below a cut.  

One new entry can fulfill multiple prompts. a. Example 1: a 3-part comic and each part fills a different prompt. b. Example 2: you write a 4 chapter fic and each chapter is dedicated to a different prompt while still being one complete story.

Crossposting to this event and another is allowed, provided that the other event also allows crossposting.

Tag #quiobibingo and @quiobibingo to be reblogged, and add your entry to the AO3 collection.

If you would like to swap any squares for any reason, we can swap them out for you up to May 25th 2023. You can swap up to 5 squares, however this can only be done once.

OT3 fills are welcome, however as this is a QuiObi bingo, the relationship between Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan must be the focus of the fill.

Only completed entries count as fills (we will reblog all tagged works but if your fill is incomplete at the time we close the bingo, we may remove it from the AO3 collection).

All entries must be works of your own creation, and must not have been posted prior to cards being sent out. AI generated art, fic, or other fanworks are not considered to be of your own creation. 

Co-writing and other collaborations are allowed.

How do I sign up?

To sign up, you will need:

A working email address

A nickname for the event (this can be the same as your AO3/tumblr/discord handle or can be different)

To fill out this form!

Once we receive your completed form we’ll put a card together for you. We will start sending out cards on May 11th 2023 and will do our best to send everyone a card out on that day. If you have not received your card within a week, please let us know by emailing quiobibingo@gmail.com or messaging us via tumblr DM with the name/email you signed up with.

Can I request a second card?

You can request a card (or a second/third card) up to two weeks before the bingo ends by filling in this form.

It may take us a little time but we will try to get a card out to you as soon as we can. If we haven’t sent you a card within a week, please email us at quiobibingo@gmail.com with the email and nickname you signed up to the bingo with.

How to fill

After signing up, you will receive your personal bingo card with the nickname that you signed up with on it and a transparent PNG stamp by email. Here’s an example of an empty card:

If you would like to use the stamp (credit to GavImp for designing it), place it over any prompts you fill to keep track, and post your progress! You can use any image editing software that supports transparent PNGs, including browser-based editing software like https://pixlr.com. 

Where to post?

You can post anywhere you want.

You can start posting for the bingo as soon as you get your card all the way up to the final day of the bingo (December 31st 2023).

The AO3 collection for the bingo is here.

After you post each fill, FILL IN THIS FORM.

This will help us to keep track of what prompt you have filled, which badge you can get etc.

[alternian-cringe-collector]

ABOUT:

Welcome to the cringe and drama collection. From roleplayers pretending to be aliens and fake neonblooded castes, to out-of-touch highbloods who can't see they're the problem, even "transcaste" and "trans-human" bullshit, this is the aspiring hub for everything and anything cringe, as well as all the interpersonal drama, meltdowns, freakouts, and ragequits we can get our finned fingers on. We'll reblog and post a variety of things here that fit our criteria.

MODS:

[Mod Beta] - she/her, Alternian

[Mod Seastar] - he/him, Alternian

[Mod Viperfish] - he/him, Alternian

[Mod Trout] - they/he, Alternian

[Mod Anchor] - she/they, Beforian

[Mod Redsnapper] - they/them, Beforian

RULES:

1. Don't send in furry/fandom/RPF/friendfiction/PDA/rage bait etc. It's not funny.

2. We 100% will put bigotry on this blog. We lean SJW now. Blow me, Mod Trout, personally, if you have a problem with it :]

3. If you submit a post from your pitchcrush or something stupid like that, we will troll your blog to find cringe of you in turn. Please try to act mature about submitting things.

4. Don't ask to tag. Tag from the pusher. Tag what you feel in your metaphysical soul.

8. Don't send in unedited links. Delete the tracking bullshit off of them.

9. Don't send in the fake )(IC blog.

10. The mods are always posting interpersonal shit. Get over it. This is a fucking cringe blog, you're not here for quality.
