It dawned upon me that I could share this short fic I wrote about Sixty
It's nothing big, the chapters don't even follow each other most of the time. But it's just a little something if you enjoy the version of Sixty I roleplay in here.

Hi, DBH Fandom, and welcome to the 2025 Round of the Detroit: Become Human Big Bang!
Today we’re announcing the 2025 round, its exciting co-round Die Hard challenge, some new folks to drag, and a partially-new set of rules that we hope will help clarify, encourage, and enthuse participants for this round.
What’s Going On in 2025?
We aren’t just running another round of the Big Bang. We’re introducing an extreme option: A Mega Bang we’re calling RK50K, where writers can team up to write 50,000 words with artists who want to make three or more artworks for the same concept. We had a bunch of overachievers last round, and we’re excited to see what we get in 2025!
That being said, for those of us who are less prolific, limited by schedule, or not infected by cordyceps, the Standard Bang remains open with the same requirements as always: 10,000 words, and one quality art.
Participants this year can sign up for three teams total: two fic and one art, or one fic and two art. There are details about picking up extra projects in the rules!
We are introducing the Bang Rules Etc. early this year because of some changes we’re implementing regarding previous rounds of the Bang Event and ongoing, unfinished works. Sign-ups don’t hit until March, but you can absolutely start writing now.
Please take the time to read the rules document. Every year we have dozens of people asking questions we’ve already taken hours to clarify. We implore you. [Mr. Wolf voice] Pretty please. With a cherry on top. Read the rules.
We would like to welcome our team of Mediators and Advisors!
Mediators are a second moderation tier that will help guide the Discord, step in when things are getting tense if mods aren’t around, and - since we’ve managed to adopt some artists - help shape the Bang’s direction as we evolve.
Please enjoy a limited introduction to your new Mediators from Sev’s basement, where we’re keeping them trapped by murder dogs:
@aye-toast (Mediator), who was bullied into this
@moonlitmilo (Mediator), who had a choice
@connor-sent-by-cyberlife (Advisor), who will be helping us out with a couple things once the round gets rolling!
We may be looking for additional assistance with a couple little things throughout the Bang, so if it’s something you’d like to get involved in, watch this space!
The Rules, Schedule, Guidelines, and FAQ are now listed in an evergreen Google Doc here:
The 2025 D:BH Big Bang Rules TL;DR Version General: Participants must be members of the Bang Discord. (https://discord.gg/xEc3GDFzyv) Partic
Girl That’s So Long
There actually isn’t a lot of new stuff! Most of the information here has been collated from the #bang-info channel in the Discord, and just put into one place where it’s searchable and more easily accessible by participants. And prettier!
The new parts - rules on check-ins, extensions, and drop-outs - were driven by the results of last year’s posting period, which (you might remember) was incredibly challenging, difficult, and time-consuming for the mods, as well as the exit poll. We did not want to need these rules, but based on last year, they’re necessary. They may evolve for future rounds, but that’s what we’re going with for now.
You don’t have to read it all now. You will be held to all rules upon sign-up, whether you’ve read them or not, but there are a lot of days until sign-ups.
The FAQ (last section in the doc) will continue to grow as we get questions.
