When does this event take place?
NateJo Week runs from Sept 1, 2026 (Nate’s birthday!) to Sept 7, 2026.
A pair of prompts is chosen every day. Feel free to pick and choose, combine, or go with an alternate prompt. You can participate all seven days or just on the days you feel like it.
You can participate by creating whatever you’re inspired to based on the prompts: fanart, fanfic, poetry, crafts, moodboards, ship playlists, or headcanon posts. The only stipulation is the work should primarily focus on Nate and Jo. (And archive lock your fics if you post on AO3!) Otherwise, there are no restrictions.
Post to the AO3 collection NateJoWeek2026, which will open at the beginning of NateJo Week, or use the Tumblr Tag #NateJoWeek2026 so we can reblog and see your work!
You can also participate by doing the daily challenges (which have prizes!) More specific info on them + specific prizes coming in a separate post. Daily challenge entries must be during NateJo week to be considered for a prize.
What if I want to make work for a threesome or moresome pairing including Nate and Jo, like SidNateJo or MikkoNateJo?
That’s totally fine + welcomed in this event! The only thing we ask you to avoid is fics that are not in the spirit of the event, such as fics with an explicitly unhappy ending for NateJo in favor of another endgame pairing.
What HRPF pairings can I request if I win a prize from completing a daily challenge?
Players accused of a credible crime can’t be requested. Further, each author/artist can have their own lines about what they’re willing to make.
I have another question not addressed here.
