Hi! For polyshipweek, you should see @polyshipweek. We are the biggest fans of this event but it's independent from us!
Welcome to Stoncy Week 2026! This event runs from July 19th â 25th and is dedicated to Steve, Nancy, and Jonathan from Stranger Things. Acceptable fanworks include fanfiction, gifs, graphics, video edits, fan art, podfics, playlists, and more. Tag #stoncyweek2026 and/or @stoncyweek2026 when posting your creations. The AO3 collection will open on July 19th and can be found here.
You can find the text version of the prompts (and bonus prompts!!!) under the cut. If you have any other questions, send an ask or check out the FAQ.
Thank you and happy creating!!! So excited to see what everyone comes up with!
There are three prompts per day, with a Free Choice day at the end of the week. The prompts were designed so that each day would have at least one prompt aimed toward gif and/or edit makers, but of course, you may create your work based on whichever prompt inspires you.
The prompts are:
Day One (July 19): Summer | Forced proximity | Favorite moment(s)
Day Two (July 20): Second chances | Philly | Nail bat
Day Three (July 21): Long distance | Secret relationship | Jealousy
Day Four (July 22): Alternate Universe | Time loop | Parallels
Day Five (July 23): Road trip | Radio station | Song lyricsÂ
Day Six (July 24): Reunions | Fix-it | Monster hunting
Day Seven (July 25): Free Choice!
BONUS PROMPTS:
Stonathan â Stoncy: Most Stoncy dynamics start with Steve and Nancy as an already established couple, Jonathan and Nancy as an already established couple, or all three of them single. This prompt goes a different direction and poses Steve and Jonathan as the already established couple, instead. Could be set in an alternate universe, in canon, post-canon, or whatever direction you want to take it!
âThree person poly relationship made up of two people who are already dating trying to coax someone with horrific self worth issues into a loving relationship. Stray cat style.â: Inspired by this Tumblr post. Is Steve, Nancy, or Jonathan the stray cat? You get to decide!Â
The wind from Challengers that makes you cheat: Featured in Chappell Roanâs music video for The Subway and made famous by the scene in Challengers (2024) in which Tashi kisses Patrick in an empty parking lot while powerful gusts of wind surround them, this prompt poses the question, âWhat if âthe wind that makes you cheatâ was a trope in the same vein as the sex pollen trope?â Whoâs doing the cheating, whoâs being cheated on, and how does it get resolved? The world is your oyster!
We are looking for more blogs to follow for poly-related content. We're also looking for fandom-specific blogs or poly-friendly events who want to affiliate. We'll make a masterpost of poly friendly blogs for the community so we can all enjoy our polyships together (or in our own space).
Remember that this is a MULTIFANDOM blog, so all fandoms are welcome to be in the index.
Reply to this post with your poly or poly-friendly sideblogs. We want to see you!
Welcome, welcome! It is that time again! We are coming back with a vengeance for 2026.
Four or More 2026 Pride Event
AO3 collection
This is a limited time Ficathon where the only requirement is to have your work be Pride-themed.
Whatâs Pride-themed? Anything from actually loudly attending Pride to quiet coming outs to family. Celebrating mixed orientation relationships or watching peopleâs sexual orientations and genders change and evolve within the polycule. Gender fuckery in the sheets or in the streets.Â
We will not be policing works for one definition of Pride
Our Four or More Bingo will be officially launched on June 1st, but you can combine this event with the Four or More Bingo (or any other event that allows it) for an extra challenge.
This event will run exclusively from June 1st to June 30th.
This is a low-stakes, personal challenge. There's no penalty for not finishing, you just wonât make it to the Pride collection.
GUIDELINES
Any medium! Any rating! As long as your work focuses on a relationship with 4 or more people, it's allowed!
All works must be your own and not previously posted. AI generated works will be deleted from the collections.
You may combine these with other events, as long as the other event allows it (examples are @polyamships polyamshippingday, lyricaltitles challenges, etc)
Small fandoms welcome!
Don't forget to comply with the community guidelines.
MEDIUM SPECIFIC GUIDELINES
Minimum wordcount for fics is 100 words. There is no maximum
Minimum for art is a sketch on unlined paper (figure sticks allowed!). There is no limit to the quality or effort you want to put in your fills.
Minimum for moodboards is a 3x3 grid (9 images individually or edited in one image). Maximum is given by the place where you decide to post. On tumblr, the maximum is 20 images, but on AO3, you're free!
Minimum for podfic is a 100-word fic. There is no restriction on maximum length or sound effects.
Minimum for fanvids is 30 seconds. There is no maximum.
Other mediums don't have a minimum. Do you want to make an in-universe magazine for your ship? A cross stich pattern? A sculpture? Go ahead and do it! I look forward to all the things you can create.
FAQ below the cut
Q: What kind of works am I allowed to submit?
A: All type of fanworks are welcome! Fics, art, podfic, meta, you name it. As long as the main relationship features 4 or more people, it's allowed.
Q: I don't have an AO3 account. Can I join?
A: Of course! All you need to be able to participate on tumblr is a tumblr account. If you don't have an AO3 account and would like to post there, please contact the mods off anon and we'll get you an invite.
Q: My work contains [INSERT WARNING HERE]. Can I still participate?
A: Yes. This is a CNTW (Choose Not To Warn) space. Feel free to post without worrying about warnings.
Q: I don't want to see [X] content, can you please remove it?
A: No. The only content that will be removed will be that that does not comply with the rules.
If you have any questions about the event, donât hesitate to send a message.
Announcing the May Trope Mayhem Prompt List for 2026!
May Trope Mayhem is a multi-fandom/original creation event open to writers, artists, and creators of all kinds! Our creators have shared their favorite tropes, and weâve put together a list of 31, one per day through the month of May. We encourage creators to join us for this month of fun tropey mayhem.
Our goal is to promote motivation and help with habit building, so weâre encouraging authors to keep their ficlets under 1,000 words, artists to stick to making just a sketch, gif makers to only do a single image, etc., as applicable to whatever youâre making.
This event is primarily held on Tumblr, but youâre welcome to participate anywhere Duck Prints Press has an account (you can see all our current platforms here) and weâll keep our eyes on our tag everywhere!
How can you participate? Itâs easy! Thereâs just a few simple rules:
write a ficlet or a poem, create art, make a gif, or create any other content that you want, aligned with the prompt for the day!
post your correctly tagged fills to Tumblr, and weâll reblog them! Weâll reskeet works on Bluesky, retoot those on Mastodon, you get the idea. Note: we do not use Twitter.
you must tag warnings such as gore, MCD, sexual content, etc., so that people can make informed decisions!
please also tag fandom and ship, so people can find what interests them!
we ask that you put the tags at the top of your post, so theyâre easy to find.
if you write more than 1k words and post the whole text on Tumblr or wherever, please use a read more if the platform allows.
if you create something with NSFW content or potentially triggering material, please put the entire work under a read more.
Ping us (duckprintspress) or tag your creations â#may trope mayhemâ and so we can find them! Weâll reblog all fills that follow the above rules and are posted between May 1st and June 8th, 2026. Posting starts May 1st!
If you post to AO3, you can also add them to our collection there!
You donât have to sign up for May Trope Mayhem, just post your fills. You donât have to be a member of the Press nor do you have to be following us. You donât have to be part of a specific fandom. Weâre open to all ships, genres, formats, ratings, kinks, etc.! You can post whatever properly tagged content you want. You donât have to post fills on the corresponding day, though we ask that if youâre creating for a day that hasnât happened yet, please wait for that day to post.
Participating in May Trope Mayhem? Want to chat fandom, books, creation, and more? Join our Book Loverâs Discord Server!
This is a low-pressure event, held in good fun, and we look forward to seeing what you create!
This event will run from May 17th to May 23rd. For rules and guides, please see the pinned post.
You can pick one of the three prompts, or mix two of them, or do a different fic for each prompt. You can even mix from different days. The world is your oyster. In fact, I encourage it!
If you don't like any of them, there's a set at the bottom as 'free space' prompts. You also don't actually have to do the prompts same day.
If anyone's inclined to make a fun visual calendar for this, feel free! Graphic Design is not my passion.

hey so when ur talking about omegaverse but espesh a/b/o yous need to leave the slashes in a/b/o if u have to use that term. bcos without the slashes, ur just putting a slur against my ppl (racists shorten the Aboriginal in Aboriginal Australians) all over my dash where i have to constantly see it and that fucking sucks, my guys
and i know most of yous didnt know this and thats fine! no need to apologise im not trying to make u feel bad, im just trying to navigate fandom and this website without being constantly exposed to a really awful racist slur
if u have to use that specific term, at least keep the slashes between the letters. it still sucks to see tho ngl. even better! stick to omegaverse or instead use aob (alpha-omega-beta) (imo its also nicer to pronounce; ay-oh-bee. ayo-bee)
anyway, pls spread awareness and (nicely) let ppl know when theyre using a racist slur for a fandom term
isn't anyone trying to find me? (take me somewhere new)

Summary: Peter-Three gets back to his timeline and finds nothing but the same raging loneliness and grief he had grown used to. Seeking to reunite with the people who made him feel alive again for the first time in years, his attempts to break the bonds of his already fragile timeline catch the attention of the TVA, who decide the best place for him is a universe with a bit more stability. Once there, Peter finds friendship, understanding⌠and maybe even love.Â
Happy belated birthday/holiday season, @wagemama-ningyo! I hope you appreciate this gift fic. It fills my O4: Secret Identity/Identity Reveal square for the Bodyslide Bingo Event (the prompt isnât really as big a party of the fic as I wanted it to be, sadly, but unfortunately the romance angle took over for the prompt); and yes I know Iâm insanely late for this to be written as part of @polyshipweek but 1. I do what I want, and 2. this story idea was perfect for the Alt 10 Entire polycule fell for/flirt with the same person prompt so Iâm just gonna go for it.Â
Thanks as always to @tinysugacube for her grammatical prowess, as well as to Marvin for his official seal of approval.
Chapter One: itâs a damn cold night
âAh, this is so cool. I always wanted brothers.â
Peter sighed as he adjusted his goggles, leaning over the machine that had been his obsession for the past three weeks. Three weeks since he returned to his own universe. Three weeks since he had gone back to being alone.
Uncle Ben was gone. Gwen was gone. Harry was gone. Aunt May was gone, too, and there wasnât even anyone for him to fight over itâhe could do a lot as Spider-Man, but one thing he couldnât fight was cancer. These days, he split his time between his underground lab and swinging from building to building. But Spider-Man was not really a hero anymore. Not since he stopped pulling his punches. Not since he broke into Ravencroft and killed the man who had once been his best friend. Not since he had let his rage consume him and send him on a warpath.
Helping the younger Peter, saving his MJ, healing the world instead of breaking itâthat had felt good. When the older Peter called him amazing⌠Peter had not realized how much he had needed to hear that. How much heâd needed to feel like he belonged somewhere.
When he first returned to his universe, it was with a brightened outlook and excitement. Max and Dr. Connors had both been cured. Who knew how much that would change his reality? Part of him held the hope that, with them cured, Gwen would be alive againâmaybe even her father too. Perhaps Harry would not have gone insane. There were endless possibilities in the multiverse.
And yet, upon returning to his universe, he found himself back in his underground lab, with everything looking the exact same as he left it. He had no missed texts or calls; everything was in the same place, and he was once again alone. Of course, if he had given it proper thoughtâhad not let himself get caught up in the excitement, in the feeling of belongingâhe would have realized. Everyone had been sent back to different universes, different timelines. None of their branches were the same. And so yes, there were timelines where Gwen was alive, where things were better. But that was not his timeline. Here he was alone.
Perhaps not for long, though.
Wow... string theory, multidimensional reality, and matter displacement⌠all real?
Dr. Strange had cracked open the universe with magic, and Peter was no magician. He could not hope to do the same. But what he couldnât accomplish with magic⌠with enough determination, he just might be able to do it with science. That, or die trying.

And with that, it's time for last year's collections to close, and this year's collection to open!
Collection? Only one? Good catch!
Something new we're trying this year is merging both the SFW and NSFW collections together.
The reasons for separating them have always been slightly convoluted and since AO3 already provides the tools to separate mature and explicit content when browsing, it's become increasingly obvious that the cons of having two collections outweigh the pros.
You can find the now singular collection HERE
As per usual, it will remain unrevealed until the event officially starts.
Happy holidays everybody, and to all the early birdsâhappy posting!
