- Participation is strictly 18+.
- This is an inclusive, judgement free zone. Any bigotry or rudeness towards mods or participants will not be tolerated. Unnecessary discourse will get you the boot. We're trying to have fun here.
- We have no hard limits on content, though mods reserve the right to veto anything. If you want to run something by us before you prompt/create it, feel free. In accordance, everything must be tagged properly.
- Absolutely no generative AI may be involved in the creation of prompts, fics, or artwork under any circumstances.
- Minimum word count is 500; write as much or as little as you please.
- For artists, your piece can be in whatever medium you'd like, rendered to whatever quality you'd like.
- Works must be new and original. They may be chaptered as long as one chapter fulfilling our word count is complete by the deadline.- Anyone can submit prompts - you don't have to have plans to write/draw to submit!
- There's no limit on how many prompts you can submit. Go wild.
- Self-prompting is welcome - simply claim the indicative prompt when the time comes. The set limit of self-claims is five in order to encourage writers to choose from our prompt library.
- While taking inspiration from any source you may find it is encouraged (i.e, TV show AUs or songfics), prompt ideas should be original and not steal from existing fanworks.
- Prompting and signups will remain open until the second check-in (05/26).

- Claiming runs on a first come first serve basis. Each prompt may be claimed by one writer and one artist respectively.
- To claim a prompt you must fill out the sign-up form. We will contact you to notify you of a successful claim and verify your participation.- Check-ins (March 24, May 26) will simply be to see how you're doing, handle any questions, and confirm you're still with us. No writing or progress pictures have to be submitted.
- Check-ins must be completed within a week for fest participation to be retained.
- Your work must be completed (or have at least a first chapter) and submitted to the Ao3 collection by 23:59 EST on July 10 to be included in posting.
- Artists must have their piece finished and submitted via email by that same deadline.
- Works will remain anonymous until reveals, so try to stay hush-hush.
- If you need an extension, or would like to drop out, we will happily accommodate you provided you contact us first.
- If, upon completing your work, you would like to claim a second prompt, please reach out to us before doing so.
- Communication will take place primarily via email, as well as Twitter/Bluesky DMs. Do not hesitate to reach out if there's anything you need.
