Well I've had a go at making an AU Prompt Event for August, as a few people seemed to think it wasn't a completely awful idea...
As described, this is an extremely low-pressure event, with no time limits or obligation to follow the prompts in any particular order.
I have split the event into six main headings, with suggested subgenres to choose from, and you're certainly free to do these in the order presented - I've made it so that there is at least five days per prompt, although there is nothing stopping you from doing them all in one go or spreading them out however you wish.
You can engage with as many or as few prompts as you wish - and feel free to ignore any that don't particularly speak to you. You can mash them together into unique and unexpected combinations - perhaps an Ancient Roman Beach Resort or a Cyberpunk Coffee Shop - or simply substitute any you don't like with your own (probably much better) ideas.
Gposes, writing or any other mode of creative expression are welcome.
Another lovely summer is upon us, and that means it's time to celebrate with yet another xiv event!!
Since the plan is to stretch it throughout summer, I’m doing a longer “deadline” for each prompt + an opening and closing day. This way, we can star/end together but still have our own pace in betweens <3
MAKE SURE TO USE: #XIV HEATWAVE FESTIVAL
As always with my prompts: you will get a theme + a specific prompt + a quote. This time, since it's weekly prompts, you can use any of the 3 prompts any time during that week. Be it just one or multiple posts per week, mix and match some of them, skip others entirely - you do you!
— GUIDELINES:
this list is intended for every medium! I once again made sure to add quote prompts to make it easier for writers, but feel free to pick and choose whatever you want: gpose, art, gifs, writing, anything goes!
none of the prompts are mandatory, specially not this time. you have 3 prompts every week to use them as you please!
NSFT works are welcome. You know me by now and know some of those are purposefully suggestive, but feel free to go crazy with any of them! just remember to tag and label them accordingly to those who don't wish to see this type of content.
It starts in JULY, so we have a month to prepare + during the weeks.
Still, if you can't make it on those dates, trust me, there's no real deadline. This is intended for all summer but if you ever feel like following it later, feel free to join!!
Make sure to use and lurk the hashtag: #XIV HEATWAVE FESTIVAL to support your fellow creators and DRINK WATER!
