Hi hi! I'm so proud to present my first set of art for the @hxhbigbang22 ! The wonderful AMAZING fic I drew this piece for is Arms Folded, an arranged royal marriage au, by the even more amazing @clood , which you can read the first chapter of here. While the fic is just getting started, I can guarantee it's one you won't want to miss. Happy readings and happy round two of posting to everyone participating!

I wanted to make something relating to the sports fandom stuff figure skater killua and hockey player gon have to deal with, so this isn't one specific moment from the fic. The little graphics represent some of my favorite moments from the story <3

In the sky full of stars, I think I see you

Once, there was an angel named Kurapika, who, as a celestial being, longed to be able to know what ‘feeling’ is.

For years of observing and guiding humans, a doctor captured his attention for the very first time. Dr. Paladiknight, a human, an amazing doctor rather, who fights with other human’s fate, doing the best he could to save all the patients on his table, even when it’s time for them to go.

Curiosity kills the cat and fortunately, Kurapika is not a cat. So, he falls in love instead. Hard.

Could an angel and a human have a shot at the thing called love? Would Leorio be okay once he finds out the truth about him? Most importantly, what would Kurapika do?

HxH Big Bang 2022 Updates and Info

Hello and Welcome to the Seventh Hunter x Hunter Big Bang!

Sign-ups open January 14th, so below are some important updates and info. Scroll to the bottom for this year’s timeline and links to the Guidebook and our Carrd, keep reading to check out important information and updates! 

So, what is a Big Bang?

A Big Bang is an event that pairs artists and writers together to create content for a series, ship, or theme. Writers will complete a longer story and artists will complete at least one piece of artwork based off of their writer’s fic. The goal is to create new, complete works that will inspire and add to the fandom! This will result in an influx of new works for the HxH fandom to enjoy and, as an added bonus, it will encourage collaboration between fandom writers and artists.

And how does it work?

Authors will sign up to write a fic, and after they know what they plan to write, submit a summary of their story. Artists will then be able to claim the fic they want based ONLY on the blind summary. From that point the writers will be given a deadline to finish their full stories and then the artists will be able to make their accompanying piece.

**Changes for 2022**

This year, we are implementing a few changes to ensure things run smoothly! Below are the most important bits for you to know, which are further explained in the guidebook (linked at the bottom!). 

New: Writer Waitlist

For the last few years, we’ve had more writers than artists sign up, which, while the interest and excitement for the event is incredible, makes it hard on our wonderful artists to keep up! 

Therefore, this year we are accepting writers to the Discord on a first-come, first-serve basis until January 28th and will be accepting an equal number of artists and authors until this point.  After January 28th, we will be placing writers on a waitlist from which they will continue to be accepted as more artists join the event until March 31. 

Updated: Writer/Artist Collaborations 

Last year, folks really loved the collaboration aspect of the event! For 2022, we are asking that all authors be open to collaboration if their artist requests it. This just means you’ll be keeping your artists updated periodically. 

Artists who choose not to collaborate will have their pairing kept secret until the reveal--surprises are fun! 

Updated: Multiple Reveal Dates 

Multiple reveal dates worked well last year, but we’ve decided that having only two this year will work better!

Reveal dates for 2022 are July 1st and July 15th.

Updated: Posting Requirements for Multi-Chapter Works

Last year, we asked that authors posted their entire work on their reveal date, which we feel may have led to authors choosing to write shorter works. 

This year, to allow for more ambitious pieces and flexibility in posting, we are still asking for the first chapter to be posted on your reveal date, but we are extending the end deadline to December 31st! 

Phew! With that out of the way, here is this year’s timeline and some important links to keep handy!

Click here for the Guidebook!  This will be your one-stop-shop for any and all information regarding the Big Bang. Everything from role requirements to more details on changes and mod contact info is there!

Click here for our Carrd! This will have all of our links centralized in one place and will be updated as deadlines come to have nifty countdowns to keep you on track. 

Any questions? Feel free to ask here or message any of our mods! 

We are looking forward to another year of incredible creativity and fandom interaction--see you January 14th and happy hunting!
