The problem with having OCs is that sometimes you wanna read about your little guy being in situations but unfortunately he is YOUR little guy and no one is gonna put him in that situation but you. Tragic.

Sign Up Walkthrough (SWTOR Summer)

Signups are open! Here is a guide on how to sign up for the SWTOR Summer exchange.

You MUST have an AO3 account to participate. If you need one, please reach out. I have several invitations I can give out.

To start your Signup, go to the Collection Page during the signup period and click on "Signup Form" or use the link provided above.

Requests

We start the signups with what you'd like to receive as a gift.

After a general explanation about how the signups work (please read this first), you will get to the form itself. You must fill out at least ONE request (each request must have at least 2 characters listed- this allows for better matching). Each "request form" allows up to 20 separate characters and 20 separate relationships. List as many characters and/or relationships you'd like. If you don't want a pairing, feel free to only list characters you enjoy.

Pairings can be platonic, romantic, multipairing, etc.

The form above is what it looks like when you scroll to the first request. You MUST choose fandom (there is only one to choose) and then go down to characters and relationships. If you aren't particular about what you receive as a gift, you can click on "Any Character".

Please be aware that if you do click this option, you are giving your gift giver the freedom to write or draw whatever they want as long as they adhere to your DNWs. Please be absolutely sure that is what you want before you click it.

Please be as descriptive as possible about your DNWs and triggers. They cannot be enforced if they are not explicitly stated.

You can choose to receive fanart, fanfiction, or both. But you must click at least one.

URL: Links are for letters, prompt ideas, more detailed DNWs, information or tags for your custom characters and ship dynamics. Feel free to link your Tumblr or anything else you think is necessary.

Offers

For your offers, this is where you will choose what YOU will be GIVING. This helps the mods and AO3 match you to someone that you will be happy creating for. You must list at least two different characters to be matched well. Again, if you click "Any Relationship/Character" in your offers, you are saying that you will make something for ANYTHING. Platonic, romantic or anything in between. Please be careful with using that option.

You are only required to make one offer but you can list up to 20 characters and/or pairings per offer. You don't have to do this many, but the minimum is at least 2 characters. Please be descriptive with your DNWs again, this is where I will determine if you are matched with someone that won't upset your triggers.

The additional tags are the most important part of your offers because it will determine what YOU ARE MAKING. Please, if you are writer, only choose fanfic. If you are an artist, only click fanart. If you do both, you can choose to offer one or both.

After you submit your signup, you can edit it until closing day, June 28th. After the 28th, you will be unable to edit it as matching will begin.

Any questions regarding signups, please message a mod or the main exchange blog. Someone will get back as quickly as possible.

Happy April 1st everyone, and this isn't an april fools prank, the prompt list is HERE! The prompts were chosen through first a prompt jar that got a total of 40 responses (nearly double what we got last year!) that gave us roughly 350 prompts. From there 70 text and dialogue prompts were chosen and put in for the voting form. The top 31 of each type made it onto the list, one of each for each day of the month!

And, since this is our second year running Fluffy July, we have decided to DOUBLE the amount of alternate prompts as well! Like last year, 10 of them are the mods' favorite prompts that didn't quite make the cut for the list, but this year we also have 10 prompts that were fan-favorites!

Rules:

Works can be in any medium. Fanfictions, original works, podfics, recs, whatever you please, go for it!

Prompts should be responded to in a form of fluff

You don't have to create for all the days to participate in the event

Works only need to include one of the daily prompts or an alternate

Prompts can be used after the event has ended. The AO3 collection will stay open indefinitely and as long as you tag us we will reblog. (although it might take longer than it would during the event)

No AI generated content of any kind.

(regarding completionists)

To be a completionest you must fill all 31 days before August 7th

The completionest form should open on August 1ts and be open until August 7th

(regarding reblogging)

When posting to tumblr please use the tags:

#Fluffy July 2026

The relevant day's tag (e.g. #Fluffyjulyday1, Fluffyjulyday2...)

“oh. oh” in writing is a treasure. I will never stop using it and cherishing it.

"I'm looking respectfully" well can you look at me like you're dying of a fever. like you're delirious and it hurts. like you're fighting desperately for your life.

2026 IllaRook Gift Exchange Signup Instructions

Signups are open! Here is a guide on how to sign up for the 2026 IllaRook Gift Exchange.

You MUST have an AO3 account to participate. If you need one, please reach out to a mod or the main exchange page. There are ways to get invitations to those who need them.

To start your Signup, go to the Collection Page during the signup period and click on "Sign-up Form" or use the link provided above.

Requests

This section is for what you'd like to receive.

Choose the fandom (only one available- Dragon Age: The Veilguard).

Choose IllaRook as your relationship. If you have a multi/poly ship, you can provide that information in the description but there are rules surrounding those pairings. You can find more info about it here.

Additional Tags: Choose whether you'd like fanfic, fanart, or both. You must choose at least one.

Rating: Please let your gifter know if you'd like a specific type of rating. If you don't mind or prefer something explicit, please check 'explicit'. If you don't want anything nsfw, do not check 'explicit' and you will not receive or match with anyone who checked it (to the best of our ability).

Links: This is where you will put links to your tumbr, bsky, refs for custom Rooks, letters with dnws, etc. Try to only put a single link here and make sure, if you use something like Google Docs, that it is shareable.

Prompts/DNWs: You can use the description box to add anything that you might find helpful for your creator, such as more links to things like custom characters, descriptions, prompts, ideas, etc. If there is a way you write a specific relationship, please leave it in the description. Please add any DNWs (Do Not Wants) such as sexual preferences/squicks, no violence, no gore, etc.

Please be specific about your DNWs so we can match you better as well as make sure they are followed. If you don't list something or are not specific about what you do not want, you are leaving it open to your gifter to write/draw it.

Also, please don't forget to put info about your Rook in the description box! It'll be helpful to have, especially for artists! There will only be one request option so please, put every bit of information you can in.

Offers

This section is for what you'd like to make/give.

Choose the fandom (there is only one- Dragon Age: The Veilguard).

Choose IllaRook as your relationship. It's the only option.

Additional tags: Choose whether you'd like to create fanfic, fanart, or both. You must choose one. If you are both a writer and an artist, you can choose to offer both but you don't have to.

Rating: If you want to offer an explicit rating, click on the explicit box. That does not mean you have to write something explicit, but if you don't mind being given a prompt with explicit content, you can check it off.

DNWs: Please add anything you aren't willing to write/draw (such as specific AUs, relationship dynamics, etc). Anything that you think is important or that bothers you, PLEASE add it to the description so that we can make sure you are paired with someone you won't be upset with. (For example, if you don't like writing about blood magic, please add that so we can make sure to limit who you might get as your assignment).

If there is something you prefer to write or draw for, you can add that in, as well.

This is also the place to designate what ships you feel comfortable creating for (m/f, m/m, or other for any other types of relationships like nonbinary, trans!Illario, or anything else).

If you'd like to be considered as a pinch hitter (to fill a request if someone drops out), please leave a note in the description box and we will add you to our pinch hitter list.

After you submit your signup, you can edit it until closing day, June 28th. After the 28th, you will be unable to edit it as matching will begin.

Any questions regarding signups, please message a mod or the main exchange blog. Someone will get back to you as quickly as possible.
