Okay, so we might be a little different from bangs that you’re used to in that we have a tiered system!
Would you love to write a short one-shot or create a single art piece instead of committing to a larger project? We’ve got you!
Are you the type of artist who always wishes you could make extra art for your partners, or are you an author who’s feeling that itch that to write a 200,000 word behemoth and would love some extra time/an extended schedule to do that? Well, guess what…we’ve got you, too!
Tier 1
Fic length: 1,000-4,999 words
Art requirements: 1 piece that can either be cover art or story/character art
Tier 2
Fic length: 5,000-19,999 words
Art requirements: 1 promotional banner/cover art + 1 story/character art
Tier 3
Fic Length: 20,000+
Art requirements: 1 promotional banner/cover art + 2 story/character arts
You’ll notice when you look at the event schedule that even though claims will still be held all together, each of these tiers has a slightly different checkpoint schedule and posting range to accommodate the various options.
You do not have to pick a tier at sign-ups! The official tier of a fic and the art requirements from its claiming artist are set at the time of claims, even if an author later adds enough words after claims for it to have been in a higher one.
Full Schedule and Info
Come join us!
Feel free to send an ask if you have any questions about anything!
We're about two weeks into sign-ups and I love all the familiar and new faces coming in 💚
For anyone else out there interested in hanging out and making Spn fic and art to the tune of Hozier and/or Florence + The Machine, there's still time to join us! (Post with rules/info and sign-up link here)
All characters/ships are welcome. Also, make sure to check out our tiers! (Some of you want to write one shots; some want to write tomes. Some have time for one piece of art. Some love and have time to let the creativity flow. We've got room for all of you!)
(I fell asleep on the couch one night and dreamed of fae!Castiel crying to the ocean about the man with love in his eyes but not in his mouth. Decided I’d write it down…)
“The centre of every poem is this: I have loved you. I have had to deal with that.”
— Salma Deera, Letters from Medea
The First Time
The first time that Dean ever saw him, he thought perhaps the guy belonged to one of the races of elves. After all, he sort of looked the part, with his long, flowing robes and otherworldly beauty. The quiet steps and confident eyes didn’t argue against the idea, either. But when Dean addressed him as such, he simply laughed and shook his head before disappearing.
The Guardian
The second time Dean saw him, he wondered if he was some kind of forest guardian, perhaps a Ngen or other nature spirit.
Dean was helping a neighbor with a hunt. A bear had been getting into their hives and tearing up their honey supers. Dean had mixed feelings about the task, but Rufus had been set on dealing with “the menace,” and Dean wasn’t about to let him go alone.
They had tracked the bear pretty deep into the woods when Dean spotted it, but there was the strange man also, standing in the way, glaring daggers from where he had placed himself between the bear and the hunters. That glare unearthed and aggravated every ounce of hesitation that Dean had been feeling about this hunt since Rufus first talked him into it.
Dean looked to his friend, trying to decide what to do. Rufus hadn’t seen them yet; should Dean point them out? The bear was what they were out there for, after all. And yet…
Dean cleared his throat. “Hey, Rufus? What do you say we head back?”
Rufus raised an eyebrow at him. “You’re kidding. Boy, don’t tell me you’re wimping out on me already?”
Dean tried not to look towards the bear and its silent guardian. He scratched at the back of his neck. “Nah, I just don’t think we’re gonna find anything out here. Besides, we’ll probably have better luck by just beefing up the defenses around our hives so our unwanted guest can’t get in anyway. Look, if it ain’t this bear, then it’ll just be another one. What good’s tracking down this one animal even gonna do?”
“You’re just whining ‘cause you slipped in the creek earlier and got your pants and boots all wet.”
Dean rolled his eyes even as he steered Rufus back towards their houses. “Whatever, man. You got me. Let’s just go home.”
The Fae
The third time, it was night. Dean was sitting outside his home enjoying the stars and the warmth of a small fire.
The forest guardian appeared suddenly and silently beside Dean, nearly causing him to jump out of his skin. The maybe-sort-of-spirit stared at him wordlessly, eyes narrowed and head tilted, as though Dean were the mystery here.
Dean tried to calm his pounding heart. “Are you a spirit?” he asked. After all, there was something ethereal and almost insubstantial in the way he seemed to easily appear and disappear.
The maybe-spirit just looked amused. “No, I am not that either.”
Dean jumped to his feet as the mystery creature made to leave. “Wait!” he pleaded, holding out a hand.
The being glanced cautiously over his shoulder at Dean, not turning back fully…but not yet leaving, either.
Dean took it as a win. “What do I call you?”
He frowned at Dean. “I have no idea. I don’t think I’ve ever heard you call me anything.”
Dean chuckled. “Okay, sure. What I mean is, what do you want me to call you?”
