Welcome to our newest masquerade fest! This is a combined fest, meaning it's both a remix and a masquerade. In a remix fest, you take a fic (someone elses or your own) and make it your own or rework it if it's your own. This way we can honour fics we really liked!

We will be writing during set times with specific themes so go ahead and already find fics you might want to work on. The fest writing time is from 10 May-3 July, the duration of Hinny's initial relationship. The final author reveals will take place between their birthdays (31 July-11 August)

Themes:

any AU (Pirate, Modern, Muggle, go wild!) 10-16 May writing time, final submission date 19 May

canon compliant 20–26 May writing time, final submission date 29 May

canon divergent 30 May–5 June writing time, final submission date 8 June

fluff to angst/angst to fluff 9-15 June writing time, final submission date 18 June

bonus: platonic relationships surrounding Hinny (golden trio, Weasley family, Ginny w/ her friends) 19-25 June writing time, final submission date 28 June

The fics will always be revealed to everyone on the final submission date of that specific theme. 29 June to 3 July will be catch-up time for late submissions of any theme.

After the third, we will lock the collection so please make sure you submit on time or let us know before this time if you still plan to submit so we can make the guessing survey as soon as possible. Voting willl close on 26 July

Important: you need to have the permission of the author to remix their fic! Please pick your fics and contact the author as soon as possible. For authors who have been not been active in 2026, you do not need permission, but please do try to contact them if you have a way to. If you are fine with your works being remixed by anyone in the fest, feel free to indicate that in our sign-up survey. We will be listing those authors in a separate post Rules:

permission from the original writer needs to be requested. The only exception is inactive writers (see above)

you can choose to do self-inspired fics, but it cannot be 100% of your submissions. You need at least one fic by someone else

you do not need to write for every theme (although it's fun to take on this challenge!)

credit needs to be given on the fic, and use the 'inspired by' functionality on AO3 whenever possible

If you are planning to join, please fill in the survey so we know who will join and we can add you to the dedicated role on Discord if you're in our server.

If you have any questions, the best place to ask them is our inbox on here or on the dedicated channel in the discord server but if you need to PM your question, feel free to contact @ginnyw-potter, @vaffyu, @sunlit-di-s or @justalittleconfusing through PM either on tumblr or discord. - Organised by the mods of @ginnystrophyhusband and @sunlit-di-s

Still obsessed with Arthur Conan Doyle’s letter to Bram Stoker gushing about how wonderful a book Dracula is, but particularly how it makes such a good template for leaving fic comments, so I’m gonna to a BREAKDOWN:

Just say you loved reading it - “I am sure that you will not think it an impertinence if I write to tell you how very much I have enjoyed reading Dracula.”

Comment on a detail of the craft or structure that impressed you - “It is really wonderful how with so much exciting interest over so long a book there is never an anticlimax.“

Comment on how it emotionally affected you - “It holds you from the very start and grows more and more engrossing until it is quite painfully vivid.”

SHARE YOUR BLORBO FEELINGS - “The old Professor is most excellent and so are the two girls.”

Show appreciation for them as an author - “I congratulate you with all my heart for having written so fine a book.”

Next time you don’t know what to say on a fic you enjoyed, just use the ACD method~

Listen once I said that Emma and Frank are the same and got slaughtered on this website but they ARE that's the POINT OF HIM they're both charming, gregarious, witty in a way that leads to cruelty (although it seems more studied for Frank whereas Emma tends to get carried away), they're both widely beloved due to being good-looking and amiable. And because of all these things they are both capable of manipulating other people and ruining their lives carelessly and thoughtlessly without facing any consequences. Frank is who Emma could be, she could abandon her father, she could hurt other people on purpose, but Emma's not actually cruel. She's thoughtless and stubborn and elitist and she does have a mean streak, but when all's said and done she has good intentions and truly cares for people. And she has a backbone! She tries to make up with Jane multiple times and accepts it when it's clear Jane won't be friends with her - that takes a courage which Frank, who takes out his frustration that he can't marry Jane ON Jane, doesn't show. Frank exists to indicate both the danger Emma's in if she follows her behaviour down, but also indicates to the reader that Emma, despite being annoying at times, isn't actually terrible. She's worth having as a heroine. Austen said no one will like Emma but MYSELF, she liked Emma! She knew Emma deserved to have a story! Frank is her way of saying look there's good here! That's what I think he's doing in the narrative.

Framing this and putting it in the front of my copy of Emma for real

Oh, yes! Just as Jane is also what Emma could be: thoughtful, discreet, modest, unselfish, and steady. Jane though, also goes too far, perhaps - she is so very discreet and private that she has no close friends in Highbury, and ends up bearing her burdens without support, even that of distant friends.. Her pride is different than Emma's, though. Where Emma's is social and vain, Jane's is self-contained and centers more on her opinion of herself and on moral rectitude.

This totally explains why Emma likes Frank so much and has a vanity crush on him

Emma Commentary Part 14

Chapter 7:

- Why is Emma still flirting with Frank?

“Oh! very well,” exclaimed Miss Bates, “then I need not be uneasy. ‘Three things very dull indeed.’ That will just do for me, you know. I shall be sure to say three dull things as soon as ever I open my mouth, shan’t I? (looking round with the most good-humoured dependence on every body’s assent)—Do not you all think I shall?” Emma could not resist. “Ah! ma’am, but there may be a difficulty. Pardon me—but you will be limited as to number—only three at once.” Miss Bates, deceived by the mock ceremony of her manner, did not immediately catch her meaning; but, when it burst on her, it could not anger, though a slight blush shewed that it could pain her. “Ah!—well—to be sure. Yes, I see what she means, (turning to Mr. Knightley,) and I will try to hold my tongue. I must make myself very disagreeable, or she would not have said such a thing to an old friend.”

I can't remember how much of this is implied canon or my own interpretation, but I fully believed that Chiron recognized Percy was a son of Poseidon from the fountain incident with Nancy Bobofit, knew that a child of the Big Three being claimed would be a total shit show, and simply chose not to say a word about it

ofswordsandpens

wait isn't it also implied somewhere that Sally was in contact with Chiron at some point before Percy arrived at CHB? Im dying imagining a convo between them about Percy's godly parentage like-

ofswordsandpens

Chiron: Unfortunately, its fairly common for the gods to not disclose of their godly nature, so a lot of parents don't exactly know who-

Sally: Oh I always knew Percy's father was a god! You see I met him at a beach in Montauk and-

Chiron: You know what Sally 😀 I'm going to have to stop you right there.

ofswordsandpens

Chiron after going to Yancy at Grover's desperate request and getting one (1) look at the child that is the carbon copy of Poseidon's preferred mortal form:

Grover: ....and the water came out of nowhere and grabbed Nancy and just....

Emma Commentary Part 13

Chapter 3

Harriet rational, Frank Churchill not too much in love, and Mr. Knightley not wanting to quarrel with her, how very happy a summer must be before her!

- Ummm..It's only been like 270 pages rn

- Something terrible is gonna happen right??

Emma Commentary Part 12

Volume III

Chapter 1

Emma saw how Mr. Weston understood these joyous prospects. He was considering her as the source of all the happiness they offered. She hoped it was not so. Two months must bring it to the proof. Mr. Weston's own happiness was indisputable. He was quite delighted. It was the very circumstance he could have wished for. Now, it would be really having Frank in their neighbourhood.

- The Westons shipping Emma is cute

- But I'm surprised Mrs. Weston is rooting too. I mean shouldn't she know Emma doesn't want to get married?

Chapter 2

At this moment Frank began talking so vigorously, that Emma could not but imagine he had overheard his own praises, and did not want to hear more;—and the voices of the ladies were drowned for a while, till another suspension brought Mrs. Elton's tones again distinctly forward

- He did this to stop Emma from listening to Mrs. E didn't he? Wait Mrs. E has tea on him?!?!

Also why reviews matter so much! Be a great reviewer if you want to keep your favorite authors fed 🥰

vaffyu

Yessss!! Reviews and comments help so much!! Many times, my only motivation to write has been to give another chapter to my regular readers.

Emma Commentary Part 11

Chapter 15:

She was, of course, the object of their joint dislike.—When they had nothing else to say, it must be always easy to begin abusing Miss Woodhouse;

- I spit my water out reading this.

“Poor Jane Fairfax!”—thought Emma.—“You have not deserved this. You may have done wrong with regard to Mr. Dixon, but this is a punishment beyond what you can have merited!—The kindness and protection of Mrs. Elton!—‘Jane Fairfax and Jane Fairfax.’ Heavens! Let me not suppose that she dares go about, Emma Woodhouse-ing me!—But upon my honour, there seems no limits to the licentiousness of that woman’s tongue!”

- did she just......have a nice thought about jane?!?

Emma Commentary Part 10

Chapter 12:

- wait....is frank gonna propose to Emma?!!?

“You, Emma, who have so few opportunities of dancing, you are really out of luck; you are very much out of luck!”

- ok gotta give it to Mr. Knightley, even tho he must celebrating that Frank's gone, he still shows genuine sympathy for Emma's dashed hopes.

Chapter 13:

forming a thousand amusing schemes for the progress and close of their attachment, fancying interesting dialogues, and inventing elegant letters; the conclusion of every imaginary declaration on his side was that she refused him. Their affection was always to subside into friendship. Every thing tender and charming was to mark their parting; but still they were to part.

Emma Commentary Part 9

CHAPTER 9:

"The Coxes were wondering last night whether she would get into any great family. How did you think the Coxes looked?" "Just as they always do—very vulgar."

- GIRLLLL WHAT THE HELLY

- stop thiss already

“How much your friends in Ireland must be enjoying your letters!” cried he. “You correspond with Weymouth, I presume?”

- that's just cruel now

“No, I thank you. But do come in. Who do you think is here?—Miss Woodhouse and Miss Smith; so kind as to call to hear the new pianoforte. Do put up your horse at the Crown, and come in.” “Well,” said he, in a deliberating manner, “for five minutes, perhaps.” “And here is Mrs. Weston and Mr. Frank Churchill too!—Quite delightful; so many friends!” “No, not now, I thank you. I could not stay two minutes. I must get on to Kingston as fast as I can.”

- Mr. Knightley this chapter be like

Emma Commentary Part 8

Chapter 8:

She had provided a plentiful dinner for them; she wished she could know that they had been allowed to eat it.

- Mr. Woodhouse is such a Almond mom?—dad?—parent??!?

"Nonsensical girl!" was his reply, but not at all in anger.

- Ok he's in loooveee

(they better end up together else I'll feel stupid)

Emma Commentary Part 7

Chapter 6:

- Omg not Churchill spilling all the tea

"It is a most repulsive quality, indeed," said he. "Oftentimes very convenient, no doubt, but never pleasing. There is safety in reserve, but no attraction. One cannot love a reserved person."

- Ok this bitch is gonna marry her right? I can feel it.
