In light of the fun we had two years ago, once again, we bring you: Reverse Big Bang!
Differently from a traditional Big Bang, in a Reverse Big Bang, the artwork is completed first. After being partnered with artists in blind claims, writers will use their chosen artwork as a fic prompt. Think of it as a fun challenge!
But just like in our Big Bang, the emphasis is the same: teamwork! After all, Glory isnāt a single-player gameā¦
SCHEDULE:
May 1 ā Signups Open
May 17 ā Signups Close
May 25 ā Artist Check-in
June 20 ā Art Submissions
June 27 ā Writer Claims
July 4 ā Pair-up Assignments
July 27 ā Writer Check-in
August 17 ā Fic Submissions
August 24 ā Posting Assignments
August 31 ā Posting Begins
Interested? Visit our carrd for more info before you sign up!

This is a straightforward event: no signups, all fanworks, any level of participation! There are no minimum or maximum requirements, and you may post works according to any prompt of your liking, or even a combination of the dayās prompts.
When youāre finished, post your rare pair fanwork on AO3 and any social media of your choice on the corresponding date. Time zones are not of concern. The AO3 collection stays open until March 31, so feel free to keep the love alive until then!
To see excluded ships and other rules and regulations, please visit: qzgsrarepairweek.carrd.co
Note: SOME RULES HAVE CHANGED SINCE LAST YEAR. Please read the updated version before posting!
Itās that time of year! Santa Ye Xiu is coming back for more~
Hello again, fellow Glory fans! Our Secret Santa 2025 event will soon begin. Please consider signing up if you want to bestow some Ye Xiu-approved gifts and submit the prompts of your dreams.
Secret Santa is low-stress and easy to follow. Drop your prompts and contact info in the signup form and wait to be matched with another participant. Before you proceed, however, please consult our carrd, or Santa Ye Xiu will be putting you on the naughty list.
This year's QZGS Big Bang schedule has wrapped up! Check out our 2025 collection for new & delightful additions to the fandom's works. Thanks to all participants. š
Hello again, fellow Glory fans! After a little detour into Reverse Big Bang, weāre returning in 2025 with your regular Big Bang. š
What is a Big Bang?
A big bang is an event where artists and writers are paired together to create a fic of a certain minimum length that is accompanied by an illustration. Participants generally find that the partnership and check-ins built into the event help with finishing works that would otherwise be challenging to do alone.
All works created for the event are kept secret until posting time. After the final check-in, all pairs are assigned a date to post their work so that (ideally) the TKA/QZGS tags will be flooded with fanworks for several days and we can all have a nice feast!
Fics and fanart of what kind?
Any kind you like! Characters, themes, ships, itās all up to you. All fics will be at least 7k words long and artists will produce fanart based on the submitted fics.
How do I participate?
Just read the rules and schedule, then sign up with the form linked above.
Any special requirements?
As long as youāre dedicated, you should be good, but we will require your alias and your email address. You must also have an AO3 account, since that is where all works will be posted. We will be offering generalized updates and reminders through Discord, and more specific ones via email. (You donāt need to join our Discord to keep up!)
Can I back out at any time?
Pretty much, but try not to wait until the last minute to do so. Weād also prefer it if you didnāt disappear on us; just tell us if you no longer want to participate.
For more information, see our carrd!
All signups open on March 3. Writer signups close on March 16, while Artist and Beta Reader signups close on March 19. Donāt miss out!

Wow, thanks so much, everyone! We got enough artists now for a perfectly balanced artist-to-writer ratio (we're not sure this has ever happened before). For that reason, we've removed the artist signup option a little early.
If you'd still like to offer yourself as a sacrifice backup option for writers in need, contact us ASAP! (Info in carrd!)

Hi there! I have a question about the QZGS rarepair fest that I couldn't find an answer to on the carrd. (If it is answered and I missed it, sorry about that!) Is the fest novel only or are live action works also accepted? Either way, thanks for hosting it!
