Time to appreciate all of our underappreciated ships! The fourth annual APH Rare Pair Week this year will be the week of June 2-8 and will be dedicated to making content for ships that don’t see enough action in the fandom! Each day of the week will have a different theme for you to make ship content around!
The rules are pretty simple:
Follow this blog so you can stay updated!
Avoid popular ships from the ban list.
Check the FAQ before sending in questions about ships.
You do not have to focus on the same ship for the entire week.
Break up long posts using a read more.
Use proper warnings for sensitive content, NSFW, and common triggers.
You may submit any medium in place of art or fic.
Please see blog description for links to the banlist, taglist, and FAQ since tumblr is not showing posts with links lately.
Tag your work with #aphrarepairweek2019 in the first five tags so it can be reblogged here!
Day 1 – Magic: Love is a magical thing. Explore your ship through magic, whether in a fantasy setting or by simply noting small moments of every day life that seem magical.
Day 2 - Language: Does your ship share a language or is there a language barrier? Do they teach each other, or have special terms of endearment in their native language?
Day 3 - Night Sky: What a wonderous thing! The night sky, full of stars, nebulas, planets, and things beyond. Let your ship feel small together as they gaze out across the universe.
Day 4 - History: Many of our favorite rare pairs have history together, whether obscure or rarely discussed by the fandom at large. Does your ship have a specific historical event that caused you to ship them? Not sure if they have history? Head to google and see what you can find! You could even discuss alternate history or “what ifs” if you wish!
Day 5 – Myths and Legends (or, Free Day!): What sort of mythology is common in the cultures of your ship? Alternatively, what sort of gods, goddesses, or mythical creatures would they be? What about if they were in a fairytale setting? You can also use this day to write ANY AU or other topic unrelated to this prompt!
Day 6 – Flowers: Bouquets to proclaim their love for one another, gardening together, or simply walking through a field of wildflowers!
Day 7 – Nostalgia: Many say that a lazy summer day can bring on a feeling of nostalgia.
Happy shipping! Please reblog this post to help spread the word!
