Remember the post-Avengers fics where everyone would move into the Tower and have movie nights, pull pranks, and realize that they may have finally found a family within this odd group of misfits? Those were good times… And we’re hoping to bring them back!
From October 29th to December 2nd, positively-marvel is hosting a five week event for all and every Marvel fan out there! You can follow our prompt calendar for inspiration, or just do your own thing; anything is fine as long as you follow the rules and have a good time! Let’s bring back the positivity and have a marvelous month!
Rules
Keep it positive & drama free
Do what you can be it writing, headcanons, edits, fanart, simple Tumblr posts, or whatever you can possibly think of. All fan creations or posts are welcome!

Prompts
Marvel Positivity Month is made up of five weeks, each featuring a certain Marvel team or aspect: Avengers, X-Men, Fantastic Four/Guardians of the Galaxy, Villains, and Marvel Universe. Each week will have prompts that mostly follow the same basic format
Style -- Feature your favorite outfit, hairstyle, make-up job, or anything else from the films or comics. The possibilities are endless!
Relationships (platonic & romantic) -- Get your shipping hats on; this is your chance to feature your favorite relationship and all the feels that come with it.
Colors -- The Marvel Universe is full of beautiful colors. Highlight them with this prompt.
Themes -- What themes are your favorite? Friendship? Family? Love? This is the day to talk about, gif, and otherwise feature those themes.
Favorite AU or favorite character -- feature your favorite au (i.e. Tony Stark as the Doctor from Doctor Who) or, if you just want to keep it simple, your favorite character. For Marvel Universe week, feature your favorite movie or favorite comic!
Senses (touch, sight, smell, etc) OR faceless -- the first prompt is a focus on the senses. For writers what does each character feel like? For anyone, how do they smell? What sights do you associate with them? The second prompt is focused on making a creation without a character’s face featured -- try focusing on their hands, their feet, anything besides their expressions.
Fluff -- Marvel Positivity Month was basically made for fluff, so here is a day dedicated solely to it! Write a fic about a fluffy moment between your OTP or gif a favorite fluff moment from the canon, or get creative. You can do anything on this day as long as it makes us go “squee.”

October 30: Relationships (platonic & romantic)
October 31: Colors
November 1: Themes
November 2: Favorite AU or favorite character

November 5 - 11
Week Three: Fantastic Four/Guardians of the Galaxy

Start brainstorming and get ready for the month to begin on October 29th! We can't wait to get started!
It’s no secret that the Marvel fandom could use a little love. After the events of Civil War, we've all been left feeling sad and angst-ridden. That's why, in an effort to bring hope and fluff back to our dashboards, we've created Marvel Positivity Month! Designed to fill your dashes with fics, fan art, headcanons, and everything Marvel, Marvel Positivity Month will begin October 29th and conclude December 2nd, running for 5 weeks. Prompts will be posted on October 1st so you have plenty of time to prepare. In the meantime, follow positively-marvel for updates. We’ll be tracking the tag #marvelpositivitymonth and our askbox is open for questions. Have a positively marvelous day!
