Hey everyone who's ready for codejuly!!!! The reason I made this was to make the tag more active again after getting inspired with the Danny Phantom's phanniemay calendar~ (sorry for the lateness as usual i'm a certified mess™️)
The official tag is "#codejuly" also "#codejuly26" (no spaces or punctuation). Please use it so that people can block it if they don't want to see it. If you are just talking about Code July, please do not tag your post with these tags
FAQ
I don't have time to do this in July?/Can I post it on another day?
Even though the calendar is for July, you don't have to do them all in July. You can do them on whatever day seem best for you.
I don't get the theme for some of these days?
You can go ask me on my ask box if you are confused on a specific day. (btw each word is just an idea, so as long as you come up with something it doesn't matter how far you stray from the literal meaning of the word)
Is this a drawing thing only?
No, you can do anything including fanfic, AMV, cosplay, tracks, and etc... the choice is yours
Do l have to do all the themes?
Nope, it's your choice on what you want to do. If you don't feel inspired by some you can skip them. (and if you get an idea later you can submit it late)
(But there is a special prize where I will give everyone who completes all the prompts a lil doodle of a character of their choice~ just make sure to let me know if you complete them all)
ONLY ENTRIES MAY BE POSTED IN THE "codejuly & codejuly26" TAGS! NO TEXT POSTS (except for Fanfiction)!

I’M LATE TO THE @code-swap PARTY BUT I FINALLY HAVE YOUR GIFT @time-travelling-chaos !!!
Honestly I never thought of yumi and sissi as a potential couple but I think they’d be so cute in a college setting! I have brainworms about them now thanks to your prompt <3 I’m now thinking about a college fic where they attend the same school without knowing and they meet by chance at a coffee place, shenanigans ensue 🤭
I made this art for your prompt "Yumi/Sissi, idealy meeting up later on in life after the event of the show (maybe at uni or something like that) but any Yumi/Sissi is fine" and so now present to you Yumi/Sissi coffee date!
@monglus hiii! first off, im truely very sorry for the delay! irl stuff in the way butttt heres your codeswap for the prompt lyoko band content!! i hope you like it!!
“I think that she can be very brave and a nice person, when she wants to be!”
Sissi almost tripped but she caught her balance, and managed to keep walking. A part of her wanted to turn around and question it. The other half wanted to ignore it. To just keep walking as if she’d not heard heard anything.
To just pretend that Odd Della-Robbia’s weird, crybaby cousin hadn’t said something so nice about her. Why would Aelita have any complements about Sissi of all people?
Sissi inhaled, held her head up high and kept walking.
---
Hours later, in the comfort of her room. Sissi’s mind kept returning to Aelita’s complement. She growled, throwing her heart-shaped pillow across the room. Huffing when it bounced back off her closest and nearly hit her.
Maybe she shouldn’t have ignored it.
Aelita probably had a barb ready for her if Sissi had reacted. Aelita had been getting better at those. Either she or one of her friends would have been ready with a joke at her expense. They always did.
They’d have laughed at her again.
But at least then she wouldn’t be still thinking about it in the middle of the night. She was going to have such bad bags in the mor-
Screaming.
Sissi didn’t even need to check where it was coming from. Even if she’d just woken up she wouldn’t have needed three guesses to work out who was making the racket. She sighed, swinging her legs out of bed. Crossing the hall and grasping the door handle.
“Hey!”
Sissi watched as the pink blankets flinched, then they jolted as Aelita jerked up. Her red-ringed eyes met Sissi’s and… she flinched again.
Sissi… Sissi had wanted to yell and scream like she’d done every other night. But that flinch. She wasn’t sure what how to feel about that. How did she look to others if Aelita seemed scared? The weary stare she was getting made her shift.
It… She was tired.
She wasn’t sure when she’d stepped forward. Or when she’d sat on the edge of the bed, the mattress dipping under her weight. Sissi wasn’t sure who was most surprised. Her who had moved or Aelita who’d watched her the whole time.
Sissi also wasn’t sure how long they were sat with only the sound of Aelita’s sniffles. Apparently everyone was used to Aelita’s night terrors now, it didn’t seem like Jim was checking anyway.
...It’d be awkward if she just got up and left like this, wouldn’t it?
“So…” Urg, her voice was so scratchy. “What was it about? The dream?”
For a moment there was only more sniffles. Aelita shuffled, bringing her legs up. Hugging them to her chest as she rested her chin on her knees. Her damp, green eyes staring at Sissi the whole time.
Sissi swallowed. This whole thing was dumb. She should have just told Aelita to shut up and gone back to bed. Aelita’s bed creaked under her as Sissi shifted to stand, only to freeze and Aelita’s mumbling.
“...wolves.”
“Huh?” Sissi had barely heard it. If it’d been raining outside, she wouldn’t have. She turned to look. “Wolves? … Like when you called Emily one in the showers?”
Okay. Wrong thing to say because now Aelita was glaring at her.
“I didn’t call her a wolf. I saw a wolf and it started chasing me. Like they do in my dreams.”
“Right…” More silence. Because what was she supposed to say to that? Why would Aelita think there’d be wolves in bathroom? Sissi thought she was smart… But the silence and Aelita’s staring. Sissi couldn’t take it. She looked away, focusing on almost empty desk.
“Wolves huh? Doesn’t Canada have bears? I’d be more scared of them.”
And now Aelita was just giving her that blank stare she occasionally did. The one that made her friends crowd around her and start whispering.
“Bears?”
“Yeah, you know-” Sissi turned again. Holding her hands up and curling her fingers and growled. “Bears. Like- nine foot tall, hair and they get real mad when people wake them up.”
More silence. Great. Maybe she should have stayed in her room. Then she wouldn’t feel so dumb.
Then Aelita gave a snort of laughter, her hands coming up to muffle the noise.
“That… That just sounds like Jim.”
Sissi’s breath caught for a second as Aelita’s hands moved away and she finally smiled. Sissi returned it, leaning back until she was against the wall. Feeling lighter than when she’d been in her room. Even though the sun was beginning to rise and she’d gotten no sleep at all.
“I meant what I said, you know? You really can be nice when you want to.” Sissi huffed, only glancing at Aelita with one eye.

Happy Code Swap, @justgrace13! You said you liked rarepairs including Milly/Tamiya, and I was immediately inspired to write a little story about both of them being oblivious in the face of a super scoop. I hope you enjoy these two just… trying so hard, haha.
My 2026 Code Swap gift for @hazelriri! I also love that Aelita William & Odd are the musicheads so I sent them vinyl shopping at the record store ^_^ ft. some bands and albums that were popular in the early 00s or earlier~
my contribution to Code: Swap 2026! this gift is for @lunarraven56 for her prompt "a fluffy Ulrich/Aelita scene" :) thank you so much to @code-swap for hosting this event!
@kittygirl255, this one’s for you! :)
You asked for anything Jerlita, but you also suggested something related to your Pokemon AU. It’s been a long time since I’ve played anything from the franchise, but I wanted to take the opportunity to do something interesting with the setting. Since you mentioned they’re in Sinnoh, I looked into the map and found that the region has Flower Paradise. It felt perfect for this codeswap because I wanted something colorful that reflected the sense of adventure Pokemon trainers experience when discovering new places. I hope you like it. And apologies if I made any mistakes regarding your AU.
Here is my @code-swap gift for @ti0n-00 ! I went mostly with your first prompt of Sissi hanging out with the Lyoko warriors, with some inspiration with the Lyoko Warrior Sissi idea, so I hope you'll enjoy it! Sissi is one of my favorite character, so it was fun to explore her relationship with the rest of the group!

Summary: It has been a few weeks since Jeremy and his friends have invited Sissi to become a part of their friend group. Still, as they constantly interrumpt conversations or change topic around her, she can't stop but thinking that maybe they don't actually enjoy her being around.
Or: Sissi is slowly becoming friends with the Lyoko Warriors; but building friendship takes time, especially when some secrets are left untold.
Hey, @crimson-vampire! It's me, your Code Swap gifter!
I saw your second and third prompts (Sissi part of the Lyoko gang and Lyoko girls sleepover with Sissi included, respectively) and decided to combine them. So have a nervous Sissi's first virtualization, and whatever the girls are discussing is up to you.
