A Secret Flash event hosted by Creatures & Cryptids!
CONGRATS, YOU DISCOVERED OUR SECRET.
Welcome to a brand new secret cryptic event!
This event is not for anyone below the age of 18.
The rules are similar to the secret bingo overall with some additions specific to the flash event. Read carefully.
Choose 1 AU, 1 creature, and 1 trope. Those 3 choices will go on one square. Do that 5 more times and you’ll have 6 unique squares of your choosing!
As long as you use one full square from your card per chapter/oneshot, you’re good to go!
You can write (or create) whatever you want, just tag your works appropriately. Yes, this includes all manner of dead dove content. This is another fuck it we ball event. We truly don’t care what you do.
Fandom, Original, and RPF works are welcome!
There is no deadline. You can write, draw, create moodboards, or whatever you want at your own pace. There is no end to the sign ups. There are no rounds. This event is literally just ✨vibes✨.
When posting your works on tumblr, please use the KEEP READING feature if it is longer than 250 words!
While this event is a secret flash, we will be reblogging your works onto this blog only. DO NOT @ CREATURES & CRYPTIDS. That blog is solely to post about different creatures, cryptids, monsters, etc.
We do have bluesky. You can follow us there but it’s not necessary, just don’t @ us over there.
If you would like your submissions reblogged, tag us @secretcrypticevents!
🌙 You may use the “creatures&cryptids”, “intothewildsflash”, and “secretflash” tags in your tumblr posts. No spaces, thank you!
How will people find out about the event? By good ole word of mouth (sharing this event with discretion) and crediting the event in whatever “bingos & events” section on your tumblr posts/ao3 or squidge end notes.

Completing your initial card and submitting a masterlist is the only way you can request another one, so we urge you to request AUs, creatures, and tropes you’re actually going to create works for.
Using a masterlist is how we will verify you have completed your card. Your filled bingo card must be included somewhere in your post. You can update it as you go or wait until you finish your card, doesn’t matter.
Do not @ us on your masterlist. Use the link below to submit it to us!
There will be 1 version of this card called blue moon.
There are only 6 slots on the card so you’ll need to tell us exactly what you want on there. As far as AUs and tropes go, a simple google search can help you find some that you think you’ll enjoy. You can look through our blog posts here to help you choose your creatures OR do your own research, doesn’t matter. We’ll literally put whatever you tell us on your card.
Cards will be delivered via Tumblr DM so please have that setting turned on. Make sure you have the "hide (your blog name) from people without an account” setting turned off as well. If for some reason we cannot send you a DM, we will use Tumblr Submission as the alternative.
Because some users only allow messages from people they follow, we urge you to follow the event account so that your card will be delivered successfully.
If you don’t have tumblr, we will use the email you provided in the sign up form to send your card. THIS OPTION IS ONLY AVAILABLE IF YOU DON'T HAVE TUMBLR.
As a little aside from all the rules, we’d like to inject even more fun into this event! Use the phrase “into the wilds” somewhere on your masterlists but be creative! It can be a creative concept adapted into the aesthetic of your post, a divider, moodboard, anything. Just have fun!
⭐️ Those of you without tumblr, you may put your email in the TUMBLR URL slot. ⭐️
🚨 PLEASE use bullet points or numbers to list your AU, creature, and trope choices! Thank you. 🚨
