THE HOTTEST AND STEAMIEST EVENT OF THE SUMMER HAS RETURNED!!!

Here is the prompt list and timeline for this year’s 5 Summers of Stancest event!

As a reminder, these prompts are only a suggestion for you to get ideas, not necessarily a strict rule for submission. This is also a free to participate event, so any problems can be submitted at any time during the event, so if for any reason you can’t finish your prompt on time, you’re more than welcome to post it at a later date, as well as after the event has concluded.

Post your submissions to tumblr and tag @5summersofstancest along with the tag “#stancest summer 2k24” so I can reblog your post 💖💕💖

Anonymous submissions on tumblr are more than welcome! You can either DM me, or send it to the ask box.

And if anyone can guess where the prompts are from, you’ll get some bonus Stancest points!!! But I’m 99.99% sure no one will since this is the most obscure theming ever lmfao 😭

Love you all and can’t wait for another steamy summer of Stancest 😍💖💕

Prompt 7: “A Tight-Knit Family” 🧶

@5summersofstancest

When I saw the stancest sweater in tbob, I knew what I had to do. ^.^

And now, for some special thanks! ✨

Thanks to @stancestburner for organizing the Stancest Summer every year. Events like this really breathe life into our community! It was awesome being able to participate, and I also had a blast seeing everyone else’s entries. It was so damn FUN!

I also wanna thank my partner, @buffalosauces, for their unwavering support and encouragement of my autism art. Not only did they encourage me, but they also helped me color this piece here (I hate coloring lol). They frequently “proofread” my art before I post it and help me correct mistakes (such as drawing Ford with seven fingers, lmao). I love you, baby! ❤️‍🔥

Line art:

Feel free to color this if you wish! 🌈

Prompt 6: “Unlikely Lovers”

@5summersofstancest

An unlikely encounter. Tonight, they are just two lonely men who happened to be in the right place at the right time. Set sometime when Ford is finishing up grad school and Stan is roaming the country.

Do you like erotic fan fiction? I have some recommendations:

“glory, glory, glory” - tentacledog

“He Said He Had A Story” - fishingboatblues

“What Happens in Jersey” - iamtheletter13, Myminator

This fic was written for the 5 summers of stancest 2024 event!

Prompt: Unlikely Lovers

Summary:

If there is one thing that Ford never saw in his future, it was a wedding. If there is one thing that Stan has ample experience with, it's weddings.

wooo finished it just in time! (in my timezone anyway)

tonally this is the opposite of the last fic i contributed to this event as it is sooooo unserious lol. i just had fun with it :)

Prompt 5: “Days Like These”

@5summersofstancest

I finally had a few days off to work on this! This comic ended up being longer than I anticipated (somehow a 2 page joke got stretched to 4 pages), so I ran out of time to do lines or shading.

Anyway… domestic violence stancest. Good stuff. I imagined that Ford has a habit of punching Stan and feeling bad about it after. Meanwhile, Stan has no concept of boundaries and can’t resist toying with his cute, easily-flustered brother. They could carry on like this all day (or until they get tired and need to take a nap).

Prompt 6: Unlikely Lovers (August 16 - August 29)

We are very near the end of the summer! Only one prompt left after this one, and I hope you’re ready for it! Has anyone been able to figure out the theme for this year’s prompts yet?

At the very last minute, baby!

Prompt 4 for @5summersofstancest was “What More Can I Say?” Ford can say a million words and more about how indignant he is the world doesn’t love Stanley as much as he does.

All Stan needs to say back is 4 to render Ford a flustered mess.

Prompt 4: “What More Can I Say?”

@5summersofstancest

Warnings: bondage, scars, implied self harm, implied past abuse, implied past b/llford, ford’s fat ass, and STANCEST.

Although you promised you would stay,

I know your mind is far away.

That’s just fine; please don’t explain,

Just never leave my sight again.

I actually didn't think I'd do anything for the summer event, but then I was knitting and the sentence "Mabel asked me if my parents didn't love me" came out of nowhere and grabbed me by the throat in a manner of frenzy I have not experienced for a while.

Prompt: What More Can I Say? (July 19 - Aug. 1)

We’re almost to the halfway point, a big thank you to everyone who has submitted so far, and I hope that we get many more as we enter the second half of summer!

This fic was written for for the 5 summer of stancest 2024 event!

Prompt: What More Can I Say?

Summary:

After patching things up with Stan, Ford wants to do everything in his power to make up for his past mistakes. When excessive words of remorse fail to communicate the sheer extent of his sincerity, logically, he turns to the obvious alternative: ancient black magic! With the aid of an arcane spell, he resolves to go as far as he must to get his sentiment across and help his brother heal. What could possibly go wrong?

so happy i could contribute to the event this year! this prompt really inspired me to focus on setting the scene. my writing is typically dialogue focused so this offered a fun and unique challenge for me!

Prompt 3: “About Time”

@5summersofstancest

Warning: this comic may contain poor attempts at comedy and disturbing imagery. And stancest.

This universe is a little different. Dipper was born with a rare genetic mutation known as “Ratboy Genius Syndrome,” and he feels rightfully special because of it. Mabel wasn’t blessed with such a gift; instead, her relationship with Jesus Christ makes her feel special. And Soos has a different outfit.

Other than that, everything’s pretty much the same.
