Welcome to River Song Appreciation Week 2026!
The diaries are open, the timeline is aligned, and it’s time to celebrate the most brilliant archaeologist in the universe. From her mysterious origins to her legendary adventures, it’s time to dedicate a week entirely to Professor River Song.
📅 The Event Schedule
May 25 – May 31, 2026
You have the duration of the week to post, with three extra weeks for late fills, slow burns, and final polishes.
✨ The 2026 Prompt List
(Text version under the cut.)
Day 3 prompt: Headcanon
(Does it even count as a HEADcanon, if it's popular and Moffat wrote it? xd)

River Song Week Late Day 2: Favourite Outfit
Fav for both the Mels and River incarnation
@riversongweek
I couldn’t find a dress I really really liked, so I just settled with a mix of ideas that hopefully makes up for her chaos.
I’m not a fashion person so I hope it looks okay!
This dress, I headcanon to be one of her hundreds of wedding dresses. This is a little more plain for a wedding dress, but it’s the one that Rory and Amy were able to witness in short notice, so she is fond of it even if it’s simple.
This is a mix of days so,
I love her for her charm, and courage and selfishness too. She’s brilliant and beautiful and very very doomed. I love at how flexible and adaptable she is on her own and how she never gives up. She’s so damn smart and funny.
I have too many favourite quotes from her tbh, but these two are the funny ones i remember
Big finish lines:
“That’s the least archeological digging I’ve seen since my husband took a forklift in the ruins of Troy”
“When I lie, I’m believable, in fact, when I lie, even reality shifts because it believes me.”
In the main show, my favourite quotes are “I’m an archeologist from the future, I dug you up.” And “careful, ever so dull.”
It’s also a shame because I have so many headcanons for her but I’m being put on the spot, so I can’t remember what i should insert…
My top hcs is that,,, River always exists no matter the timeline
So even if Melody Pond gets saved, That copy of River in the library doesn’t disappear, she’s just stuck there forever
Her favourite flowers are Celosia and Astilbe
River tenses up around Spacesuits, but unfortunately, her fate is truly tied to it, so she has to expose herself to many spacesuits to desensitize herself, it doesn’t work as much as she wants it to.
After TNOD, she still visits the TARDIS as a data ghost (she misses her)
I like to think that Amy and Rory are also in the simulation with her, wouldn’t want her to be without her parents.
She has lipstick and eyeshadow on here, I just couldn’t draw it well
The idea and the final drawing
@riversongweek
Day 4 prompt: Best quote/line
Even Alex approved of this quote when she signed it. ^^
(It's even funny when you fully know the context lol.)
@riversongweek
(I may not be able to post a lot of artwork for this one. xd Oh well.)
