Will the NSFW zine only include bottom Robert or will it welcome both dynamics? This part wasn't clear to me in the FAQ, sorry.

Hi! Here to clarify since the FAQ was written in-character:

The NSFW zine will feature whatever our artists and writers want to create. The mod team collectively does not prefer one dynamic over the other. Applicants are not being judged on what dynamic is present in their portfolio, and we will not be enforcing one collective viewpoint for participants to adhere to. All content will be clearly labelled so that people who buy the zine can read or avoid things that suit or do not suit their preferences.

I don't think we need to specify which edition @fexie is working on...

Hi! Will you be sending out some sort of rejection letters to artists/writers who haven't made it to the contributors list? I'm almost completely certain that I wouldn't be accepted, but if you could just confirm it, it would've been really appreciated bc the uncertainty is driving the anxiety up the wall :'D

Hello! Acceptance / rejection emails will be sent out after the application window closes. Our staff team will be giving ourselves about a month to review all applications after the app window closes.

We really appreciate your patience!

P.S. No one has been officially accepted/waitlisted for pinch hits yet. We've only been communicating with our guest invitations thus far, several of whom accepted prior to the interest check. The folks you're seeing now are all guests.

Sorry, hoes hate me 'cause I'm the it girl. I ain't never asked to be the shit, girl. Don't call me "sis, " 'cause I'm not your sister. You really need to come and get your mister— ( ♬ )

Do you see this? Do you see who is drawing for this? @artbytosin is incredible, stunning, deserving of your eyeballs!

[mechabaezine]

I've been tryin' to keep my grip / Yeah, I think I'm over this / I can hear it now, oh no, oh no / Yeah, my tongue will let it slip / Why'd I do those things I did? / I can taste it now, oh no, oh no ( ♬ )

with avii on our team, we can finally offer you the finest homegrown yaoi

And you came in heavy like a hurricane, left your lipstick stain on the back of my brain singing—girl, California girl. ( ♬ )

it's a goddamn honor to announce @3artho as one of our guest artists

[mechabaezine]

I've been lookin' after me like only I can watch my back Lovin' me and it keeps hurtin' me I hate it when I lose control over my heart You know you really turned me on, right from the start ( ♬ )

For our first guest writer, we'd like to introduce the lovely Lee! (Boom, alliteration.) You might know them for fics like Flambae Hates Twitter and In Retrograde (Amnesia).

[mechabaezine]

All right, people, you know the drill. Guidelines can be found here. Writers, artists, and merch, do your thing.

HEY IF YOU WANNA EDIT YOUR SUBMISSION DON'T FORGET TO JOT DOWN YOUR LINK SOMEWHERE IT'LL BE AT THE END OF THE APP

Good luck, everyone.

[mechabaezine]

Can we submit an app if we haven't written Flambert yet but planned to? I'm interested and am a fan of the game and pairing but I haven't gotten around to writing them yet, but have superhero related content?

We'd like to see at least one sample feature a writer applicant's portrayal and characterization of Robert and Flambae. We can share that we may need to extend the application period for writers, given the number of applications we've received so far. (Which has not been enough to support both zine editions even though there is enough demand for both.)

And sometimes it feels like we're going nowhere fast For every step forward take two steps right back I hope that it helps to know I'll help however I can ( ♬ )

If you aren't already familiar with Arczi's work, congratulations, you're like a unicorn.

There are those who will never learn, who build a fire and can't stay warm. / The only secret to make it through, is to take what's in front of you, I feel death and it thrills me. ( ♬ )

Yon caught the Dispatch brainrot, oh noooooo

[mechabaezine]

Thinkin' 'bout you, I keep thinkin' 'bout you / I keep sayin' I don't want you, but I think that I do ( ♬ )

Every team needs a voice of reason. Ours just happens to be very good at layouts.
