[marwan-simposium]

Hello, and welcome to Marwan Kinktober 2022, hosted by the Marwan Simposium discord server! We’re very excited to be back with an event, and we hope you will have a lot of fun participating during the next month!

This year, we’re hosting a kinktober! At the bottom of this post you’ll find a card with the prompt list for this event. For each day we have a different prompt. But! Should you find yourself with a prompt you don’t like, don’t worry, there’s seven jokers, which you can use to replace those prompts with.

Participation Rules

All kinds of submissions are allowed for this event! Fic, art, moodboards, podfic - if you can make it, it’s allowed!

Since this is a Marwan Simposium event, every single submission has to feature/revolve around a Marwan character of your choosing! No character or ship is off-limits (whether movie-ship or kenzarelli-ship), so go wild!

We ask that the submission is posted on the day of the prompt. For example, if you want to create art involving the prompt “markings”, the posting day for that art will be october 17th!

You’re allowed to combine multiple prompts per submission. There’s no limit, but we ask that you choose at least one of the dates of one of the prompts for posting-date!

You can post your work to the marwan kinktober ao3 collection, and/or tag us on tumblr @marwan-simposium​ and use the #marwankinktober2022 hashtag so we can promote you!

The goal of this event is foremost to have fun creating. We’d love to see you cross out as many prompts as you can!

Your hosts are, as always, Vio, Kellin and Sam. If you have any questions, find us on tumblr @marwan-simposium, or tag us in the Marwan Simposium Discord.

Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: The Old Guard (Movie 2020) Rating: Mature Warnings: Graphic Depictions Of Violence Relationships: Joe | Yusuf Al-Kaysani/Nicky | Nicolò di Genova Characters: Joe | Yusuf Al-Kaysani, Nicky | Nicolò di Genova, Andy | Andromache of Scythia, Booker | Sebastien le Livre Additional Tags: Canon Compliant, Historical, Historical Accuracy, in which nicky and joe adopt a child, Canon-Typical Violence, Blood and Violence, Immortal Husbands Joe | Yusuf Al-Kaysani/Nicky | Nicolò di Genova, Joe | Yusuf Al-Kaysani and Nicky | Nicolò di Genova are in Love, a little angst as a treat, Hopeful Ending Summary:

It’s this that convinced Nicolò they should at least try, back in ‘92. It would be different this time, he argued with Andromache, because they wouldn’t be on the frontlines this time, the first ones to cross into enemy territory and the first ones to die. It would be different because this time their whole mission would be securing peace instead of taking lives, protecting those who couldn’t protect themselves. The cover too, would be perfect - the FORPRONU consisted of 42 different nations, including France, Tunisia and Italy; they could all sign up under the banner of their ‘homelands’ and circle back to their given names, except Andromache, who could sign up under the Slovak Republic. Sébastien made sure they would all be in the same company of course.

“Come on, boss,” Nicolò had pleaded, trying to break through the cold facade Andromache was putting on. “This is what we do. We can do some good with this gift we’ve been granted. We can try to make a difference.”

Happy valentine’s @occlusivavelare! I hope you like it 💞

Written for @marwan-simposium’s Spook Simptober Bingo (prompt: Trick or Treating)

[marwan-simposium]

Hello, and welcome to the Spooky Simptober Bingo Event, hosted by Marwan Simposium Discord Server! Are you ready to get spooky?

Spooky Simptober We’ve created 30 different bingo cards. Each bingo card is filled with different prompts, both tropes and spooky themed. It’s up to you to find the card you like best and square out a bingo.

Bingo There are a number of ways to achieve bingo.

1) Square out a column. The bingo cards are 5 x 5 each, with the middle square as a ‘free choice’ square. You’re free to choose which column you want to fill, and in what direction; diagonal, horizontal and vertical are all allowed.

2) Square out the corners. Don’t want to do the whole column? Good news - you only need to fulfil the four squares of the corners. We’re considering those as bingo, too.

3) Square out the whole card. Feeling inspired and having a lot of fun? We’d like to challenge you to cross off all the squares by including all the prompts in your work.

Submission guidelines. This event runs from the 25th to the 31st of October. That gives you a little over three weeks in preparation. You can submit your works through the following channels:

Upload it to AO3 and add it to the Spooky Simptober Collection

Upload it to tumblr and mention us: @marwan-simposium​

Share it in the discord server

There are a few submission guidelines. This event focuses on all things Marwan + the Kenzarelli Multiverse. All ships and all movies are allowed!

For fanfic the following guidelines apply:

Each prompt is worth a minimum of 500 words. If you want to fulfil a full column, that can mean the following:

You can choose to upload 5 separate fics, each a minimum of 500 words and each fills a different prompt for the bingo.

You can choose to combine a few prompts in one fic. However, each prompt included equals the minimum word count: 2 prompts equal 1000 words, 3 becomes 1500 etc.

You can choose to use a prompt multiple times, but the prompt only counts in the first fic you upload.

For art the following guidelines apply:

We ask to keep the photo manipulation to a minimum - if you upload art we would like to see the minimum of a sketch.

If you choose to make only a sketch, we hope you consider adding in a little ficlet of at least 250 words.*

We do want the original prompt to be visible in the artwork.

*This rule also applies to moodboards and manips - we love them, just as much as we love sketches, but we’d like to raise the bar a little bit so both fanfic and other types of art require the same amount of input.

For podfic, we ask that you also use fics that meet the fanfic requirements. As an example, we’ve added the first bingo card below. You can find all the bingo cards in the Google Drive, you can download the one you like there.

Have fun, happy creating, and have a lovely halloween! For questions, don’t be afraid to shoot us a message, or drop by in the discord server!

Hello! Welcome to the Marwan Simposium’s Spooky Simptober bingo! In case you haven’t seen the original announcement of this event, or if you want to join in, you’ll find the original post here!

Posting for this event takes place between October 25th and October 31st. With only two weeks to go before posting starts, we thought we’d give you guys something cool to work with!

Earlier, we gave you a link to this google drive where you could (or can!) pick out your own bingo card - there’s 30 of them, so lots of different prompts to chose from! Now, we’d like to give you the following:

For this event we’ve made a template in which you can copy your bingo card. Also, we’ve made a very cute ghost stamp for you to use, so you can keep track of which prompts you’ve crossed off on your card. And, as a bonus, if you can show us you’ve collected a bingo, we will reward you with a medal!

Your template can look like this:

You can find the template and the stamp here.

We’re very excited to kick this event off! Get spooky, have fun, and if you have any remaining questions, feel free to reach out to us here or in the discord server!
