All weekend long from June 5th, 6th, and 7th 2026 creators can work on any rpf fanworks (new or old), hang-out and chat with other creators, and use our tools to make progress on their fanworks.
You need to join the new RPF Creators Discord to get access to all our tools and to get your custom role and badge once you finish the retreat!

This event was inspired by similiar events from the ficwip community but this server and all events will be centered around making more RPF fanworks!
[faq below the cut]
What is a creator's retreat?
It's a multi-day event where you can write or create fanworks from wherever you are in the world with other creators. You can also choose to be as active as you want by participating in any or all of the days. Write for one day. Or draw all three days. The choice is yours!
Do I have to be writing to participate?
No, you can be drawing or editing videos or making other content too. However, some of the guides and prompts for the event will be geared towards writers specifically so some things might not apply to all.
Do I have to work on something new?
Not at all! Dig out any WIPs that you want to work on or need an extra push to finish.
Will the event be for w*tcher rpf only?
You are welcome to write for any rpf ships during the retreat but there will be lots of attention on Shyan, Standrew, etc. The server is open to all but it's starting with these as our main focus. We can make more categories and channels if they are requested.
What do I get for participating in the retreat?
Everyone who participates will get a custom server role and 2026 badge you can share! You'll also (hopefully) get to make progress on a new fanwork to post for everyone to enjoy!
HEY WHO WAS GONNA TELL ME THAT THE EXTENDED CUT OF "HOW A SHEEP THIEF BECAME A ROYAL JESTER" HAD RYAN REVEAL THE PROFESSOR WANTED TO KISS HIM SEVERAL TIMES??? OFF-CAMERA EVEN???
Now that episode 4 is out on YouTube I can finally post about this fucking scene
Love to see how far these two have come since the early seasons of this show. The enemies to friends to lovers really are enemies to friends to lovers-ing.
All weekend long from June 5th, 6th, and 7th 2026 creators can work on any rpf fanworks (new or old) from wherever they are in the world. Work at your own pace and use our server to check-in and recharge when you need a little inspiration - or a reminder to hydrate!

Or join if you want to vote for our next retreat dates in August and October and see what else we're creating!
[faq part one link] [faq part two below]
Do we post our works during these dates?
This is not a requirement and there is no pressure to do so. This event is just about making progress creating something - fics, art, podfic, gifsets, etc. By the end of the weekend if you've completed something that you want to post that's great and the mods will happily share it once it's published!
What's with the beach theme? What if I don't want to write about that?
That's just our aesthetic for the retreat weekend. We're encouraging everyone to imagine themselves writing by a relaxing seaside with a fruity drink nearby. This doesn't mean your works have to be set at the beach or have anything to do with this theme at all. It's just a way to add some fun and whimsy to keep our monkey brains engaged. For example, I'm going to buy some pineapple juice to drink out of a fun glass while I write - but I've always loved committing to a bit and being a little weird whenever possible!
Is this a recurring event?
The server is committed to hosting at least two more retreats this year. I have already started planning for August and October's retreats (have the themes picked out and materials started) so they'll be happening no matter what. So if the June dates don't work for your schedule (or if you see this post after the event has past) you're still welcome to join the discord so you can be notified of the next retreat and vote in our polls to help choose which weekend should be next.
Maybe the retreats will become so popular we'll host one a month or brainstorm other types of events to host! And no matter our event status the server will be open to creators to share prompts and resources, ask for beta help, or post a freewrite in our Lightning Forum - a place to post when inspiration strikes and you want to share your ficlet in real time. Bonus: you choose whether to ask for audience suggestions or not.

The moment where the Professor calls Ryan Bergara his jester hasn't left my mind since I first heard it. The implications behind it... They said it after everyone was joking about jesters having romantic relationships with their kings. Alex Song-Xia mentioned the possibility of jesters kissing their kings and the Professor responded it with, "I bet they kissed." Mind you, he is no longer under the influence of drugs, so this is his true authentic self speaking. Why the fuck would they say this. He even stated that it was a fact. I showed that moment to three (3) people who have never watched Puppet History, and they went, "That's gay as shit what the hell." One of them even said it was the most homosexual thing they've ever seen since Ellen DeGeneres came out. What are you trying to say, the Professor.
