FAQ

FAQ

🔹 Is there a word count restriction for fics?

No, there’s absolutely no word count restriction, write as little or as much as you like. We welcome a poem with 10 words the same way we would an epic fic of 100,000 words.

🔹 What kind of art can I create?

Absolutely anything goes: drawings, paintings, collages, mood boards, gif sets, videos, playlists, fiber arts, sock puppets… the sky’s the limit (though not really…).

🔹 If I create a podfic, does the source need to be new?

No, in that case, your creation will be what's new, the fic itself can be older/already posted and also doesn't have to be connected to Flufftober (even tho it should obviously fit the prompt). All we ask is that you have the author's permission to use their work. Some authors give blanket permission, so check for that as well.

🔹 Can I mix mediums or do I have to stick to one?

Yes, please mix and mash different mediums however you like, be it within one prompt or for different entries. We don't bind you to just one type of medium.

🔹 Do I have to commit to one fandom/ship/character?

Absolutely not. Switch as often as you like or write for multiple fandoms/ships/characters each day.

🔹 Do I have to write romantic relationships?

NO! The ship does not have to be a romantic one! We welcome all kinds of platonic relationships, be they friendships, coworkers, teammates, rivals, or something else. We also always welcome stories about family (but this is not a way to get around rule #1!)

🔹 Are reader-insert fics allowed?

Yes, we will always tag those as [character name] x reader (romantic) or [character name] & reader (platonic), for example, Bucky Barnes x reader.

🔹 Is RPF (Real Person Fiction) allowed?

YES! RPF is a fandom - multiple fandoms, actually! - so it is absolutely allowed in this fandom event!

🔹 Can I write for my OCs or even enter original works?

Yes, absolutely! Original works as well as OCs in fandoms are always welcomed! We only ask that you mark these clearly - either in the tags or the post itself. We're not familiar with all fandoms (though we're learning!), so we're not always sure what might be an OC and what might be such an unknown side character not even Google can find them. So the best way to help us is to use tags like #original work, #original characters, or even #OC [name].

🔹 Does my entry have to be in English?

No, other languages are also welcome. We only ask that you clearly show day, fandom, and prompt so that we can easily reblog your entry.

🔹 Does my entry have to be fluffy?

Well, we can’t force you to stick to fluff but we would like you to at least keep in mind that this is a fluff event 😉 but if our prompts send your characters on a dark road we will certainly not restrict your muse. Tropes like hurt/comfort or angst with a happy ending are awesome for a reason, after all. And we'll never say no to smut with feelings, in case you wanna add spice to the fluff 😏

🔹 Can I combine your events with others?

Yes! We actually always encourage that. Especially in October, there are so many events. So if you want to combine us with Whumptober or Angstober to get that hurt/comfort going, go for it! Or if you wanna check out other fluffy and cozy events to make our lists extra fluffy, that would be amazing. We only ask that you make sure the other event allows it as well.

🔹 Do I have to wait to create my entry?

No, you can start creating as soon as you see the respective prompt lists, be that our list for Flufftober or any other events we host. We only ask that you refrain from posting early if it's an event with set days.

🔹 What if I want to post early?

Then we will schedule it to be reblogged on the correct day, but we would prefer you keep this to an absolute minimum as it does make extra work for us.

🔹 What if I want to combine earlier days with later days?

If you use multiple prompts in one creation, we will reblog on/schedule it for the earliest day you used but won't reblog again on the other days. If you post it on a random day and one of the prompts in your creation is from a past day, we'll just reblog it as is.

🔹 Once I start, do I have to commit to all days?

No, you can participate on as many days as you like, even if it’s just one; you can also create multiple entries for the same day.

🔹 Can I just put all prompts together in one big fic?

Yes, you can write one story/a series for all the prompts. But remember, we won't reblog later days before that respective day. So if you want to be sure that your tumblr posts get reblogged in the correct order, stick to the order of our lists. If you don't care about that, go wild.

🔹 How do I use the Prompt Extras?

You can use them to replace as many original prompts as you like; you can combine them with the original prompts; or you can use them in addition to the original list to have more prompts in general. It's all completely up to you.

🔹 What if I don't get done before the event ends?

Late entries are always welcome, even months or years later. The only requirement then is that you MENTION US (using the @ in your post) - we will stop checking the event tags once the next big event starts! Also, reblogs will happen slower/further apart unless you post your fic during our next event when we'll reblog regularly again.

btw the katy perry/bezos' girlfriend/other four irrelevant billionaires 10 minute space stunt was not the first all female expedition no matter how much they try to market it as such. the first all female mission was in 1963 with soviet cosmonauts Valentina Tereshkova, Irina Solovyova and Valentina Ponomaryova - all three of which were working class and had to pass incredibly hard exams to be chosen from 400 potential candidates. just in case we started falling for the propaganda machine again

some random redemption arcs that aren’t just ‘zuko, but a little to the left’

I’m evil but all my evil friends betrayed me and I’ve decided that the best revenge is to ruin their evil plans. Yes, this means I’m a “good guy” or whatever. No, I don’t like it any more than you do.

I was evil but all my evil friends betrayed me and now I’m going to latch onto the first person who shows me kindness. If that happens to be the protagonist, I am totally fine with realigning my morality to match theirs.

I never wanted to do what I did, and now the biggest obstacle to me switching sides is convincing me that I’m not a living weapon.

Well as long as you’re imprisoning me in this magic amulet I might as well give you pointers on your technique. I mean come on if you all die I might be stuck here for millennia! It’s not because I like you and don’t want you to die. Nuh uh.

Look, I legit thought that being evil was going to be my best option to get this important thing done, but, uh, that didn’t pan out. Help?

The drink in Laila’s hand sloshes crimson and ribbon thick when she picks it up, the metal of her prosthetic hand clinking against the shot glass. The taste of copper and nickel coats the roof of her mouth as she downs it in one go, and then sneers at the way her tongue tries to chase the taste again. She quickly sneaks a glance to find no one watching.

The TV blares—the brightest object in the room, the fluorescent bulbs and lights content to mingle in the dark. Clad in glamour and glitz, the throng of people on the dance floor shake and grind, rake their hands up their bodies and others in a psychedelic haze of sweat and spit.

Through the crowd, a fairy’s wings shimmer as he clashes his mouth against a translucent man. Their pulse hammers to the beat of an indie rock song by the Vampire Weekend. She snorts at the irony.

Then, a scream pierces through her head. She exhales sharply, clutching her head in her hands. Spots of color block her vision, and she slams her eyes shut, only to see an inverted image of a man. Please, not again.

She scrambles to throw a wall in her mind and forces her eyes wide open. One moment, the man is sitting in front of her tangible and in full technicolor, a cut splitting his cheekbone and water dripping down his blue lips. The next, he flickers out until she is staring at the rows of wine bottles.

Another person, dead. Nine in the past fortnight.
