Hey, Seblainers! Hellooooo, everyone else!
It’s almost here! Please join us to celebrate our first event - Seblainiversary 2022, from Friday November 4th until Sunday November 6th.
It will be 11 years on November 8th 2022 since our beautiful boys met for the very first time (who can ever forget the moment their eyes meet across the crowded room, and their instant attraction?), so to this end, we have two themes for you all to write/create around.
Do whatever you like with this, just as long as 11 is clearly incorporated in some way. Maybe they met at 11 years old in an AU setting, perhaps they are reunited after 11 years of no contact, or could it be their 11th Wedding Anniversary? It’s up to you, and we can’t wait to see what you all come up with.
Steel is the traditional gift given for an 11th Anniversary, and when you reflect on some of the characteristics of steel, you’ll realise what a perfect theme it is for Seblaine! Steel, is known for its durability, strength and how it is almost virtually resistant to damage, no matter what it goes through!
So we want your creations to clearly show steel as an important factor - could it refer to a plane? Something one has given to the other at some point during their friendship/relationship? Maybe it’s referring to the colour, or the metal itself? It’s entirely up to you! Get creative, and let your imaginations run wild!
The event runs from midnight (your own timezone) on Friday November 4th until 23:59 (of your own timezone) on Sunday November 6th 2022.
Anyone and everyone who shares our love of Seblaine!
Anything, as long as it is Seblaine-related! Fics, Graphics, Gifs, Gifsets, Videos, Manips, Playlists, Lyrics - anything you like as long as it fits the themes! We’re looking forward to seeing what everyone comes up with.
Please remember to use #seblaineworld and #seblainiversary2022 within the first five tags, and also put @seblaineworld in your posts, since we all know just how flaky Tumblr can be about tags!
Be sensible and considerate. We all know that not everyone shares our love of Seblaine, and even within our own tiny (but always fierce!) Seblainer Fandom, there are those who don’t enjoy mature content, so please ensure you tag everything you submit, appropriately.
Can I post on any day during the event?
Yes! You can post on any day as the two themes run concurrently. If you want to combine both themes into one piece of work, that’s fine too!
Do I need to submit something for each day?
Absolutely not. If you want to contribute something for every day, then of course you can, but it’s not a requirement at all. We know everyone has busy lives, so just do what you can, when you can.
Can I post a WIP or work that fits the themes even if I started it before the Seblainiversary 2022 announcement?
Absolutely! Both of us have done this before and feel it’s a great way to refresh creativity, so feel free to post anything you’ve already started, providing it fits one or both themes!
When do we start posting?
As soon as it becomes Friday 4th November in your own timezone, post your work to your Tumblr blog, and as mentioned above, please tag it #seblaineworld and #seblainiversary2022 and make sure those two are in your first five tags. Please also put @seblaineworld somewhere in your post.
If you’re going to be posting your work to another site like AO3 or ff.net, post a properly tagged link on your Tumblr.
A Seblainiversary 2022 collection will be added to AO3. More details nearer the time.
Yes! We know how time can occassionally run away from us all, so everything posted will be reblogged until Friday November 11th.
You haven’t reblogged my work yet!
No problem! Again, because Tumblr can be (very!) erratic, just send us an Ask or message if we haven’t reblogged your work within 24 hours of you posting it, and one of us will get onto it right away.
So, that’s it! We’re excited to see all your work, and hope you’ll join us for our first event as the new home of Seblaine events. Just drop us an Ask or message if you have a question that’s not been covered here, and we’ll see you all on November 4th!
