The Collection is Open!
The Tour de France Fanwork Classification 2025 is now open! Add your fanworks to our ao3 collection (link in the pinned post) or tag us here on tumblr to submit them! Have a good time competing and don’t forget to enjoy yourselves!
Stage 13: Swannie AU
Hyperspecific week continues on, and today we look at another AU! Relax after the stage or before, and get yourself limbered up, because it's a Swannie AU!
Be creative and have fun!
Stage Two: Actors AU
On another hilly day, those fighting for the fanwork classification and the respected maillot scintillement will make their way through another Alternate Universe: the world of acting!
They could be big-time stars in Hollywood, part-time actors at the local theatre, or anything in between. Will they win an Oscar? Will their motley cast create an unexpected hit? Will someone fall off the stage? It’s all up to you, as you write, direct, and produce the Actor AU of your dreams!
There is no minimum wordcount for the stage. Don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions :)
Stage Three: Yellow
It's the first flat stage of the tour and the first word prompt of our challenge! And of course, what word is more important to the Tour de France than yellow?
Whether that means the coveted maillot jaune (not as coveted as our maillot scintillement, of course), the yellow sunflowers by the roadside, or something else entirely. Anything and everything yellow is fair game!
We look forward to seeing your creativity. As usual, there’s no minimum wordcount, and we’re always here for any questions you might have!
Stage 14: And They Were Roommates
(Oh my god, they were roommates). The peloton fights their way through the mountains, dreaming of the rest at the end of the day. Our competitors dream of rest for the peloton as well- for them and their roommates, real or fanon.
Be as creative or silly as you like and have fun!
Stage 13: Create a Fanwork in a Media You Don’t Normally Use
It’s another challenge stage! Get out of your comfort zone, and create a fanwork in a media you don’t traditionally use! Further explanation can be found here.
Good luck and have fun!
Stage 12: Wishbaby
The mountains approach, and so does another trope! This stage is about the Wishbaby trope, with an explanation found here.
Enjoy yourselves and be creative!
Stage 11: Remember
Returning to a flat stage after the rest day, our competitors get another chance to pull ahead in the fight for the glitter jersey. The prompt for this stage is Remember.
Be creative and ask if you have any questions!
