Februari 1st is TeruMai day!
I actually didn't manage to finish this in time, but I know it's still the first in some parts of the world, so I think it still counts!
It's also Mai's birthday, anniversary of DRDT and anniversary of Fool's Table MV.
[ID: a digital painting of Teruko Tawaki and Mai Akasaki from danganronpa despair time, set in a black space. Mai, with a large pink cross across her eyes, dangles upside down from a picture frame signifying a dead student, holding Teruko's head as they kiss. Teruko, on her knees, holds Mai's face. Mai's hair unravels messily beneath Teruko. The artist's watermark is at the base of the stand holding the frame. End ID]
I present TeruMai day! Be prepared to Celebrate on February 1st; on Mai's birthday and DRDT's anniversary! Fool's Table MV Anni too~
As this is a ship day; there are no prompts.
Thank you again to @juicewaaa for illustrating as usual.
Rules below the Cut!
The hashtags and tags will be released before the week starts.
The primary focus of this event is to depict the relationship between the two characters featured for the event. While “ship” tends to bring to mind romantic relationships, the host of this event does not want to limit the creativity of any participant. As long as these two characters and the relationship between them is the main focus of the work, any depiction of the relationship between these two is allowed. (Platonic, revulsion, lovers, enemies, etc…) You may include other pairings in your works as well, but please make the featured pair the focus of your work.
All kinds of original transformative works are allowed for this event. This includes fanart, fanfiction, music, videos*, critical analyses, cosplay, comics, fiber art, recipes, dramas, sculptures, and more. Please see the point below this for further elaboration. Derivative works may be created for this event, but the original fannish work must be your own(e.g. You can make a translation of a fanfiction into a different language, but only if the original fanfiction already belonged to you.) Examples of derivative works are translations, podfics, and direct drawings of sculptures. Crossover works/aus/etc. are fine(as seen by one of the prompts). If you are going to remix someone else’s work(e.g. a fanfiction of a fanfiction), please be certain that the creator of the original work is fine with this.
All fanworks for this week must be created entirely by yourself. Unless you are planning to create a collaboration work, all material for this event must be created by yourself. This means that if you would like to make a video, all the art and script used in the video must be created by yourself. So something like a sprite edit video/meme using DRDTdev’s sprites would not be allowed. *If you use background music that is not yours for a creation, be sure to credit the original artist.
No plagiarism, tracing, edits of any work that is not your own, or generative ai may be used for this event. Do not repost anyone else’s work for any reason.
All works used for this event may not be used for any monetary profit.
Please do not reuse old works from any past events/zines/etc. you may have participated in!
Nsfw is allowed, but must be properly tagged as either nsfw or drdtnsfw. Any previews must be sfw. The host will not promote your work unless the appropriate warnings/tags are on it. Please use the appropriate discretion as necessary when choosing trigger warnings for your work if it contains triggering content that is extremely graphic or violent. If you are unsure of how to tag a work, feel free to reach out. Tl;dr, as long as the characters involved are all fictional and the work is tagged/warned properly, anything is allowed.
Please be respectful to all participants. If you see something you don’t like, just scroll past it.
No works created with the explicit intent to hate on other characters or pairings will be promoted, even if the negativity it is not focused on the featured characters of the event.
Failure to comply with any of the stated rules means that your work will not be promoted.
Please understand that the host of these events will check available socials they have access to in order to support participant submissions; but it is not a guarantee.
Lastly, please note that the prompts are simply there to help creatives have a common theme to enjoy each day. You do not have to follow the prompts if you don’t want to, and you don’t have to create something for every single day. The host also understands that it may not be possible to make pieces on time, so feel free to post your work at any time throughout the week. Late submissions are also allowed, and this account will keep checking the tags for newly tagged posts up to two weeks after the last day of the featured event week.
