Looks like there's someone who should have posted who hasn't done so yet. What's up?

EDIT: Wow, I am so sorry for the extremely late posting of this reply. I had answered it about a day after you sent this ask, but it was in my drafts rather than having been uploaded. I am so sorry!

Unfortunately, the KoCBB’s last author-artist duo had to drop from the bang. The author who was second-to-last in posting, to my knowledge, experienced a severe glitch in their Google docs which deleted their fics, and they had to rewrite them. I’ve reached out to the artists about this already, and they have posted their work!

Here are the links to the two pieces of artwork that have been done, and I will also be reblogging them.

But if you’re a participating author, please feel free to post your completed fic on any public site - Tumblr, AO3, FF.net, LiveJournal, etc. - on your posting date, and just make sure to follow the submission guidelines that I sent out.

Thank you! ♥

Round 2!

Hello everyone!!

The first round of the Artist Claims went successfully! However, there is one more fic left for claiming!

As of now, it’s been two days since Artist Claim Day opened. In light of this, any artist that has already claimed a fic of their own and wishes to claim another, or any artist that has not previously signed up for the KoCBB and likes the remaining fic, may do so now. 

Remember, it is first-come, first-serve!
