OC DYNAMICS MONTH 2026

Welcome all OC enthusiasts! This entire August 2026 will be all about your OCs, or more specifically, the dynamics between them. Post your writing, art, or whichever medium you choose on Tumblr with the hashtag #ocdynamicsmonth26 and make sure to show some love to other participants as well! Your posts will be reblogged to this blog.

My asks are open for any questions & comments you might have! Please read the rules and prompt guide first!♡

Rules:

Original characters only! Fandom OCs are fine, but the characters within the dynamic must be OCs.

Make something (writing, visual art, some other creation) with a given prompt, then post it on Tumblr during OC Dynamics Month and use the hashtag #ocdynamicsmonth26. Interpret the prompts freely and include as many OCs within the dynamic as you wish!

You can post your work late, for example you can post your creation for Day 1 on Day 15 if you want! All I ask is that you don't post them early.

There are no strict rules for what content is allowed. However, I may choose not to reblog something if I feel that it goes against the spirit of the event (AI generated content, hateful content etc). Including content warnings for heavy topics is encouraged!

Event is over but you still want to do the prompts? No worries, keep working on the daily prompts or fill the bonus prompts if you wish! I'll keep reblogging posts for a while after the event is over.

Bonus rule: interact with at least one other creation for each piece you make yourself! Like, reblog, leave a reply, or even send the creator a message if you want - let’s spread the love! ♡

Prompt guide

Each main prompt contains a type of relationship and an adjective. You can fill a day's prompt in one of 3 ways (using the first prompt as an example): 1. use only the type of relationship → make a piece about ex-friends, 2. use only the adjective → make a piece about ocs with a powerful dynamic OR 3. use both → make a piece about ex-friends who have a powerful dynamic.

This year, the bonus prompts are dialogue prompts. You can combine or swap them with main prompts or just do them in addition to the main prompts! You can use the exact wording, tweak it to fit your piece, or simply use the dialogue to inspire your work without using it directly.

Hello. I am just making sure to double check if I’d be welcome to participate in this event given that my OCs and their dynamics are dark and could be considered triggering or “darkship.” I don’t want to step on toes or participate in an event that would make the blog runner uncomfortable if seeing my stuff in the tags for the event, you get me? I’d obviously be tagging the stuff with trigger warnings that apply but if you as the event runner would rather not have participation for darker dynamics I don’t want to make anyone uncomfortable especially since it’s your event. Thanks for answering (:

Hi, thank you for the consideration! This event is for all kinds of OC dynamics, including dark ones. Some of the adjective prompts (e.g. disgusting, scary) definitely lean that way unless you decide to make them more lighthearted instead. So don't worry about that at all, just make what you want to make, include content warnings and you're all good!

I'll take the time here to remind other participants to check content warnings and exercise caution if you don't want to see potentially disturbing content!

Edit: also just to be totally clear in case anyone was worried, I am an adult🫡

hellooo could i ask for a rough estimate of the timezone this blog runs on? i've noticed that one of the requirements is that creations not be submitted early, which is very understandable. however, due to being in a timezone that's quite ahead, i'm worried that i might unintentionally submit something 12 hours early

thanks so much for running this event :)

Oh no don't worry about that, go ahead and post in your own timezone! The not posting early rule is not a matter of hours or even a day, it's just so that you don't intentionally post day 15 on day 4 or something and that we're going somewhat chronologically (even though we're not, since you are allowed to post late, but yknow. It makes sense to me😭)

So yeah just follow your own timezone, I promise I'm not going to be checking the exact hour you posted🫶

WIANSISJSKSKSKSWK I'M SO HYPED FOR THIS!!!!

This is my worldcup <333 I'm gonna publish my OCs specifically so I can participate here (which I'm super nervous about but I love OC dynamics too much)

- 🌸

that's amazing anon!!!💖 posting your OCs can definitely be scary but also so freeing, I'm so glad to hear that this event is inspiring you to do it!!

#I'M EXCITED TOOOOOO I can't wait to read about and look at everyone's beautiful OCs #ask #ocdynamicsmonth26

Hi!!! Really looking forward to the event, the prompts look amazing and I'm sure those must have taken quite a while to figure out, so thank you!! I just had a quick question; it says the characters within the dynamic have to be ocs but is it still fine to mention canon characters, maybe even have them say a few lines if the focus is still in the ocs?

Hi anon, I know you sent another ask after this telling me you already found the answer but I know other people might not find it so I'm using your ask to spread info! (Also I'm so glad you like the prompts, thank you so much!♡)

Yes, canon characters are allowed to appear in your work, as long as the characters within the dynamic are OCs!

#should maybe have a FAQ or something but there haven't been that many frequently asked questions so far #ask #ocdynamicsmonth26

Is there an AO3 collection? If not, could you create it?

I thought about it but personally I feel that having an ao3 collection comes off a bit more fandom-focused, which this event is not (even though fandom OCs are welcomed). You can still post your work on AO3 obviously and I'll share it here as long as you share the link on Tumblr.

But I don't know, what do you guys think?

#I know people post original work on ao3 as well but it's primarily for fandom #also I've never created a collection before and idk how it works lol but I guess I could figure it out if the majority wants it?#I just don't think it's necessary for this particular event?🤔#like how many people would post their work for this on ao3 anyway?#last time I think there were like 2 people who did but obviously this year could be different #ask #ocdynamicsmonth26

day 3 prompts are siblings/tragic... one of my favorite tropes are tragic siblings.... i know what i must do

hehe I figured people would enjoy that one!🫶

#so glad to hear you like the prompt thank you for the message!!#ask #ocdynamicsmonth26

And what if I made graphics dedicated to OC dynamics month. What then.

- 🌸 I'm so tempted have I mentioned I love creative communities

that sounds awesome!!💖💖
