Young Royals Gift Exchange 2026

Calling all writers, artists, editors, gifmakers, podficcers, and other creatives! Come join us for the Young Royals Gift Exchange 2026, running from May to August this year!

This is a multimedia gift exchange, running on AO3. To take part, you sign up with prompts/ideas for gifts you'd like to receive, and you'll then be assigned someone to make a gift for based on your own offers. This is open to everyone - all YR characters, ships (or no ships), and themes are welcome!

Sign ups will be open from 1 to 16 May. Assignments will be due by 25 July, with works revealed on 1 August. You can find all the key dates at the link above.

Currently the sign up form allows you to request/offer: Fanart; Fanfiction; Fanmixes; Graphics (includes gifsets); Podfic; and Video. If you'd like to offer something else that isn't listed there, please let us know by 30 April so we can add it to the form.

You can find all the details of how it works at the FAQ. If you've not signed up to a gift exchange on AO3 before, we've done an example sign up here for anyone looking for a bit more guidance.

See you then - and please spread the word!

It looks like they’re dropping a teaser trailer for the new Harry Potter reboot tomorrow

Just a few important and gentle reminders:

🫶🏻 DO NOT WATCH THIS FUCKING SHOW 🫶🏻

If you claim you support human rights - not just trans rights but human rights in general - yet still plan to watch this show, unfollow me. You’re a fucking hypocrite and I don’t want you following me.

Do not watch it even if you’re hate watching it, it still contributes to streaming revenue and views!

The adults in this reboot of the franchise are FULLY accountable for choosing to do this show and accepting a pay cheque over supporting a minority group. Even if they claim they support trans rights, they’re cowards and don’t actually support them at all.

The kids do NOT deserve abuse or hate, whether it’s because you’re comparing them to Dan/Rupert/Emma or because you’re boycotting due to the author’s views. They are literal CHILDREN.

Your nostalgia over a children’s series about kids going to school is NOT more important than trans people being respected and having rights. As long as JKR is still alive, she profits off of this.

happy Hollanov Day to all who celebrate

[princesimonsblog]

All those people on Insta (and probably on Tik Tok tol but I'm not on that platform) saying "I feel like I'm going insane! The only thing I can think about is Heated Rivalry, it's constantly on my mind!" makes me laugh because like... That's how I lived my whole life? What do you mean you can normally function without any hyperfixation!? I need to think about something constantly, maybe it be a show, a book, or a hobby. I need something to consume me daily.

[sheisraging]

i think i need to lie down

[cowboylikebrii]

if you've ever felt as if you can only ruin the things you love (just by loving them) you understand ilya rozanov and if you've ever felt you have to be perfect in order to be loved you understand shane hollander

[manichewitz]

the thing about heated rivalry is that u start it because you want to watch hot guys be gay. like it could be good it could be bad but who cares, it will still have hot guys being gay. and then u watch it and realize every episode is like getting shot in the chest five times while experiencing every emotion imaginable bc you’re actually just witnessing a work of art unfold week by week. and you STILL get to watch hot guys be gay. absolutely top tier viewing experience

[glorianas]

i think all these american media gay guys acting like francois is some provincial philistine who doesn't understand anything is so crazy he's from montreal, california is some little backwater, they were gay in montreal 300 years ago

[glorianas]

imagine being a 40 year old bisexual guy who was in a xavier dolan movie in 2009 as your feature debut and getting lectured about how to be gay properly by a bunch of little twerps in their 20s, i'd lose my mind
