Complete Bastards Week!

Thank you to whoever was the last to vote yesterday - you fixed the ties! I can now reveal our seven NSFW and SFW prompts:

NSFW ~

Loss of virginity

Obsession/Voyeurism

Cross dressing

Wet dreams

Edging/Orgasm denial

Exhibitionism/Public sex

Touch starved

SFW ~

Childhood/Nostalgia

Falling piano/Cartoon violence

Drunk

Gender roles

Daddy/Mummy issues

First date

30 years later

Bonus prompts (for switching with one if it really doesn't appeal to you) ~

NSFW - Hurt/Comfort

SFW - Transformation

I can also reveal that the most popular prompts of each list were cross dressing, with 15 votes (to the shock of no one 😂), and drunk, with 12 votes.

So, what do we do next? Well, we need to agree on a week that will actually be Complete Bastards Week, like, officially. It shouldn't be too far away, but not too close either - we need to give people a hot second to actually create for this! Let me know if you guys want it to be before or after Christmas. I know the next few months are typically a busy time, so maybe this could be something to brighten up gloomy January? Let me know what you're thinking!

Some simple guidelines:

*Each day will be represented by a single prompt (one from each list in this case), but it doesn't really matter if you don't end up posting what you make to its allotted day. Posting at all is what counts!

*You don't have to commit to doing all seven if you're too busy or not all of them appeal to you.

*You can fill out all NSFW prompts, all SFW prompts, or a mix of both!

*Try to tag anything you post #complete bastards week so I can reblog it to a blog for curating this event (@completebastardsweek). Tagging the blog when you post would be a good idea too - especially if you make something NSFW, as Tumblr keeps hiding NSFW stuff from the tags. Of course, I'll mostly check the tags the week of the actual event, but I'll be keeping a cursory eye on things before and after, in case we have any early birds/latecomers.

*It goes without saying, but feel free to post whatever you make elsewhere too!

*You can make work for any of the shows/films featuring our favourite bastards. Feel free to stage crossovers too, if that's your thing! All ships (including X Reader and OCs) are welcome, as are no ships at all. Go mad!

I'll make another post with a fancypants graphic assigning the prompts to the days of the week once we've settled on a week. Thank you once again to everyone who voted! I hope some of the prompts you picked won and ideas are coming to you. 😊

#RikAndAdeFest2025 Countdown! ⏳

Welcome, scumbags from all corners! Yes, even you, spotty - get over 'ere. Why? Because with a new year comes a new round of our fantastic fest! The fifth one in a row!

To get you all in the mood and brainwash you into taking part, over the next couple of months we'll be sharing the opinions and experiences of scumbags who've taken part in our previous fests as we count down to the start of this year's.

These bastards know what they're talking about. Especially this one, our founding scumbag:

@xgardensinspace 💫

Hello, hello! Deya here, sharing some thoughts on our little Rik and Ade fest! :)

I initially approached R about this idea because I adore our fandoms and the small, yet very close-knit community we have around these shows. As a creator that churns out art and fic under the influence of a time crunch, due to fest deadlines, I thought it would be very fitting that we had our very own fandom festival to apply this pressure on my and other creators’ schedules! This way, I can actually force myself to create MORE content for these fandoms I love so dearly. Well, that… but honestly, it was mostly because I also thought we needed a little fest in our community to celebrate one another, share ideas, and actually have a dedicated time for such creativity to flourish. Aside from the integrity of a structured fest, the outcome of this event allows us fans to look forward to the future of our space. If we create at least one or two more works each year for the shows we love, then we can rest assured that we will always have some new fanwork to look forward to!

When you dwell in niche fandoms, it’s always tough finding a large number of fanworks to keep us entertained; and this is particularly disheartening when the people interacting with the fanwork aren’t creators themselves, or don’t feel capable of formulating the fanfic or fanart that lurks in their brains. So if we have a fest dedicated to creating for these niche shows, we are constantly creating for ourselves and all our lovely friends that like to keep up with the newest silly little fics and silly little doodles of our favourite, bastard boys.

Plus, our fest is the perfect opportunity for these friends to come share those ideas in hopes that they get picked up and turned into a real fanwork! Overall, the whole point of the fest is to create community, and that’s ultimately what we all benefit from! We’re here to share thoughts, inspire one another, and equally push each other to make ideas into reality. The whole fest idea is also a lot of fun, because reading the witty prompts we all come up with each year is exciting on its own. And you just never know when you’ll find prompts that you thought only you had considered, so seeing someone else yearn for the same tropes that you’ve always dreamed of is an extremely gratifying experience.

In the end, I just wanted us to have a space each year to have fun, create and just look forward to sharing in the love of the worlds Rik and Ade created all those years ago. A safe space where we can be loud and silly together. I’ve added my own silly little prompts to the fest, and it’s always so lovely to see them get picked up, and even more exciting to see what people create out of these prompts! I’ve also directly participated last year and I hope I get to participate some more in the coming years! Time will always be mein enemy, but if a prompt really strikes my fancy, I just might work my schedule around creating fanwork for us, haha.

Hearing the feedback, seeing the joy and the love our members have for this fest is very rewarding! Last year we probably had the largest turnout and it made us feel so honoured! We hope this fest continues running for many years to come, and that everyone keeps enjoying the chaos.

Ok, starting to post for real this time because everytime I do no one seems to see what I put out ugh.

About me

i’m 14

I’m autistic + have ADHD

My special interest is fashion and makeup (I have a hyperfixation on mac cosmetics currently)

I ADORE Ethel Cain

As I mentioned I love to write, I have an AO3 acc (americanteenager) with the beginnings of my first post up on it currently, will probably link it here once I post more of it, I do mostly write ocs (especially oc x cannon, won’t even lie I AM very lonely 😭😭 incel ahh). And I also draw too, mostly women but just generally why draw men? Gross. I have plans on asking for, or saving up for a camcorder, I’d love to get into film making and whatnot, so expect something of that in the next year or so.

Examples of said art (My oc 4 the young ones on the left teehee)

I think that’s basically all, I miss my old decent tumblr days back in 2021 I can’t lie💔💔

Hello hello! Happy TYO Easter c: Lookie here, I made a post xD

This piece is for the @rikandadefest 2024 :) @neil-neil-orange-peel 's prompt of "Vim Fuego playing Mary Hopkin numbers in a wine bar, unsatisfied with life but still stubbornly (and, some could say, in delusional fashion) convinced he's going to make it big in the music world." was just too good to pass up.

I still want someone to create a fic for this prompt though, because it is hilariously immaculate.

Anyways, I hope you guys like this little drawing of Vim :) Of course I was going to make him sing Mary Hopkins' number one hit xD It's too good! And the idea of Vim singing it (probably more upbeat and screaming into the mic) is CHEF'S KISS!

Day 1 of @completebastardsweek ... Whoo!

The rest of the days will probably either be missed, because I didn't enjoy writing my ideas as much as I thought I would, or will just be pretty damn late so don't have too much faith in me. All but one of the ones I do want to write will also be OC-centred like this one, because I am desperate to do something with my girls and also they are easier to write than canon characters because you can do whatever you want with them lmao

Anyways, TL;DR Vim reminisces on how he fucked up his longest relationship, just as he starts to fuck up another.

[Edit: Prompt is Childhood/Nostalgia, should have specified lol...]

[neil-neil-orange-peel]

It's Prompt Selection Time!

I've added everything that was submitted to the first form, though when two prompts were similar I've amalgamated them into one. Please share this around, scumbags! We'll need a lot more people to answer this one to get any kind of coherent results (and if we don't... we'll cross that bridge later 😂).

This form is anonymous too, so have no fear. Now: vote!
