[EVENT] FIC CLUB

Hello everyone,

It’s been a long time, but now we’re back with some sort of event. Rather than for writers, this event is more so for all the readers in our squad.

So what is this fic club?

The fic-club is similar to literature clubs you would find at school or universities. Each month, we will choose a sekai fic to read and discuss together. Participation is voluntary, so you do not need to participate. This fic club is a pilote project with the aim to 

a) find gems in the sekai ficdom 

b) show fics more love

and c) find topics (fics) that squad members can love and talk about.

So how does it work? 

All squad members can send in suggestions for the fic of the month. You will find the link to the nominations in our discord server, so I highly recommend you to join us righ here.

By the end of the previous month, there will be a poll where you can choose the fics you would love to read. In case two or more fics receive the same amount of votes, a randomizer will choose for us. 

Once the fic of the month has been chosen, everyone is given 3 weeks time - until the 21st of each month - to read it. Please do leave a comment underneath the fic before you enter the fic club discussion on the sekaisquad discord server.

What kinds of fics are allowed? Can I suggest my own writing? 

You can suggest any fic to be the fic of the month, as long as it fits the following criteria:

It must be a completed fic. No on-going chaptered fics please!

The fic must be between 5-100k words long. ( 100k words would be a 350 pages novel )

We hope that with this, among other, future projects and events, sekaisquad will be able to grow as a sekai shipper community that is giving off good vibes ♥

On a sidenote, you don’t have to be interested in fics at all to join the squad. If you simply like seeing EXO’s maknaes together, you’re invited to join us and share the love as well :3

[MOD] Official Discord Opening

Hello everyone,

This is your main mod speaking. As hinted on twitter, we have been working on a not too secret project, namely, a discord channel!

Those who have watched us over the past might have noticed the changes sekaisquad has gone under. We started as a group chat on kakaotalk, transitioned over to line chat and then became a group exclusive for fic writers on twitter for easier moderation.

We would like to go back to becoming a space for all sekai shippers to be able to talk and find friends while maintaining the fic project aspects as well, and thus have decided to open a discord server.

For those unfamiliar with discord: It is a platform similar to skype where you can both chat via text or voice, but it is also different as you can join servers that have several channels. If you’ve been in group chats on other platforms with 20+ people you might have noticed that it is difficult to maintain a conversation with so many people around. That would be less of a problem on discord as you have several chat rooms to have multiple convos at the same time.

The best thing is, that you do not need to download anything. Discord works in most browsers, so all you have to do is register for an account and then follow our invite link to enter the sekaisquad server (of course, if you like to, you can also use the desktop app on your PC or the mobile app on your phone).

So if you’d like to give it a try, do use our invite link here to join sekaisquad and make new friends in fandom and ficdom. It’s a casual chat, so you can enter and leave anytime - you don’t have to be online and active constantly.

And as always, if you do have any questions, please shoot us a message through our askbox, via twitter or e-mail ( [email protected] ).

[MASTERLIST] challenge #02

The second sekaisquad challenge was similar to the first one, except, for this time around, we decided to have a word count of exactly 1000 words (+/- 100w) to make it a real challenge. Here’s the outcome:

(note: links are in the title)

challenge accepted by carpesoo 1009w | fluff | general audiences jongin won't let anything stand in the way of true love.

sit, stay, play by kumjongin 1099w | pwp | explicit warnings: master/pet, exhibitionism, voyerism, daddy kink sehun shows off what a good pet he has.

coffee crush by kaiohtic 1071w | fluff, romance, humor, coffeeshop!au | general audiences in which jongin is crushing on a cute waiter and baekhyun is of no help.

my hands may not always reach you but i will always feel you by junxouji 1031q | fem!exo | general audiences warnings: fem!exo they were meant for each other like the sun and the moon.

tomorrows by baeksthighs 1044w | domestic fluff, light angst, fem!exo | teen and up audiences warnings: fem!jongin “college is over and do you know what happens next? life, sehun."

all i need is today by baejoohyun 905w | angst | general audiences jongin doesn’t want sehun’s tomorrows.

gotta sweat it out by sehuns 1046w | college!au, fluff | teen and up audiences sehun wants jongin to hit the gym with him. jongin doesn't really want to, but reluctantly does.

dying ain’t so bad by grenadille 908w | angst, bonnie & clyde!au | teen and up audiences warnings: character death, a bit of blood maybe, though, they were incompatible from the start. sehun’s love was green, but jongin’s love is red, just like blood.

[sejongsquad]

I feel like baeksthighs is the one that wrote "let's get physical, physical" and sekai_tbh wrote "tongue tied twisted" That's all I have for right now!

I'm back! Kaiohtic wrote "all an act" !

Honestly I'm just guessing for the fun of it, since I'm 3star4life and I already know which one I wrote lmao XD

I hope you don’t mind me compiling all your msgs into one place! if you do want to change your guesses, pls msg us and we’ll edit the post or delete the old post to keep the new one :)

[MASTERLIST] fic fest #01

Sekaisquad’s first fic fest has now come to an end.

Mods would like to say thanks to all the lovely writers who have participated in this little fest. We did not expect this many entries for a first fest, so hopefully, there will be enough interest to organize a second round later ^^

Below, you’ll find the masterlist with all authors revealed.

TONGUE TIED TWISTED by kumjongin 9.1k | explicit | smut, office!au, model!au In which Jongin has a crush on his boss's new boyfriend, which wouldn't be so bad if Sehun didn't seem to be just as attracted to him.

Neither Kim nor Oh has released an official statement regarding the rumor so do take this with a grain of salt.

~ DAY 7

SHELTER by cosmicruin 5.6k | teen & up audiences | au, paranormal, fluff, light humor Scraped knees and broken bones are incomparable to a wounded heart, but Sehun believes it’s not incurable as long as he takes his time.

[MOD] fic fest #1: claiming

Hello everyone,

First of all, I’d like to apologize for the delay. Originally, the claiming period was supposed to start on 4th June, but due to personal reasons, I wasn’t able to organize this sooner. However, as announced per twitter, the prompts have been made accessible right away, so at least you were given the chance to check out the prompts earlier and note down the ones you might want to claim.

To keep this post as short as possible, here are the rules and guidelines:

Who is allowed to participate?

Everyone, as long as you have an ao3 account. In case you want to participate but do not own an ao3 account yet, you can easily make one by requesting an invitation code here.

Can i claim more than one prompt?

You can only claim one prompt at a time. Once you finish your fic (or abandon the prompt you have claimed), you are allowed to claim a new one. This means, you can write as many fics as you’d like for this fest :)

I like none of the prompts. Can I come up with my own prompt?

Yes, of course, although we do encourage choosing from the prompt sheet.

What are the requirements for the finished fic?

- more than 2.000 words - no child pornography, no pedophilia, no plagiarism - please send in a newly written fic (not one you have been working on before the fest)

How do i claim a prompt?

- step 1: look at the prompt sheet linked here. - step 2: claim your prompt using the form linked here.

*** SCHEDULE ***

~ check-in: 6th AUG ~ submissions: 27th AUG ~ postings: starting 4th SEP (sekai day!!!)

And, as always, you can direct further inquiries to the sekaisquad mods via twitter or e-mail ( [email protected] ).

If you've been following our twitter ( @sejongsquad ) you might know that this is just one of three fic events our writer community has planned for this year. While two of the writing challenges are community intern, the fic fest for sekai day will be opened for every sekai shipper - reader or writer - to prompt. Prompting will start today, on Sehun’s birthday :)

Everyone is allowed to send in as many prompts as you like, but please follow the guidelines and rules in the link here.

Our schedule for the fic fest is as follows:

*prompting period: 12th april ~ 30th may *claiming: starting 4th june *check-in: 6th aug *submissions: 27th aug

The prompting form will be opened until 30th May, and more details on the prompting process will be given in a later mod post.

[MOD] challenge #02

hello everyone,

how are you doing?

after the big restructuring of sekaisquad it's about time to start the actual writing events that are the main focus of our little community. the mods are very excited to announce the very first of three planned events in 2017!

do you remember our first writing challenge? we have added a little twist to it, so please read below to see the details for yourself.

similar to the first challenge, you will have to start your fic with exactly the same word/words the previous fic of the challenge ended. please see the example below.

prompt: Because Jongin has learned by now that both are important - words and actions.

you can now either take the whole sentence to start your fic or just the last few words:

--> Words and actions have to match, that Sehun knows.

or you could take the last word only to start your fic:

--> Actions speak louder than words.

rules - sekai as main pairing. if you write OT3, please focus on sekai. any side pairings are allowed.

- word count: 1000 words (+/- 100 words). that means you cannot write 1101 words or more. you are not allowed to write less than 900 words either. this is to make this challenge a more challenging one :P

- you have 2 weeks starting the day your prompt has been posted, to post your own fic.

- the writing order will be decided randomly. you can skip your turn if you are too busy, so you'll be put at the end of the list. eventually, it will be your turn though.

- post your fic to ao3 and add it to the collection “sekaisquad challenge #2“. alternatively, you can open the collection page http://archiveofourown.org/collections/sks02  and click on “post to collection“. afterwards, please DM the mod account sejongsquad, announcing that you’ve submitted your fic.

- of course all other squad rules apply here as well: no plagiarism, no child pornography, no pedophilia, no romanticizing/sexualizing abuse or rape. please refer to our FAQ for more detailed information on this. the first fic will be posted on 9th April. further information will be announced within the group chat. if you have any questions, please do ask in the main group chat as well.

[MASTERLIST] secret santa 2016

note: reposted from LJ. the links (click on the fic title!) will lead to the LJ entries and might not work anymore. some of the fics have been crossposted to our AO3 collection here.

hello everyone, first of all, thank you for all the submissions that are not only gifts to the participants only, but other sekai shippers and sekaific readers as well. together, we have been able to write 8 wonderful fics and about 51k words in total. again, thank you to all participants who managed to finish and submit the fic and give everyone a little extra present for the festive days. we might hold more events like these in the future, so stay tuned and follow the squad's twitter @sejongsquad. and without further ado, here is the updated masterlist:

Signed, Sealed, Delivered (I'm Yours) ; for stina098 by carpesoo pg | 3.6k | idol!au, fluff As an idol, Jongin"s come face to face with all kinds of fans. Though, never quite one like the stoic man currently sitting in front of him. Blind Date Blues ; for carpesoo by hikarinoniji pg | 4.7k | comedy, fluff When the cutest stranger Sehun has ever seen plops down in the seat across his and calls him Chanyeol, Sehun has no choice but to play along.

Words Unspoken ; for bringnsexsebaek by harujongin pg | 7.7k | high school!au, bff!au, romance, angst Sometimes, it's easier to write letters than to speak up face to face. So Baby Come Light Me Up ; for miliaax by stina098 nc-17 | 9k | romance, abo!verse Getting a new student is a rarity in the first place, but someone transferring a quarter into the school year is basically unheard of.
