#my fanfiction - My writing tag, but I encourage checking out my AO3 since I use that more frequently

I am the one who runs the USUKUS Network Discord and the Tumblr Blog but I’m also multiship friendly too! (Just ask)

My twitter is actually used mostly for multifandoms, including Hetalia. At the moment, it is mostly a FFXIV blog.

Event-specific Rules

About Crossovers/Fusions - Every submission must be based on an existing media such as a manga, anime, videogame, film, or TV show. - The work must include America and England as the focal characters and elements of the selected media. Characters from the medium itself are NOT ALLOWED to be included directly in your work.         >> Example: If Pokémon is the selected media, England and America can engage in a Pokémon battle and exist within the known Pokémon world. However, they cannot interact with the canon cast (Ash, Red, Team Rocket, etc.) - The selected media must be submitted to the admin team ahead of time so choices can be reviewed and approved. If you want to change your choice at any point in time during the creation period, please let us know as soon as possible so there is time to re-review. - The admins reserve the right to reject any media chosen by creators and categorize works as NSFW at our discretion. - If there are any questions regarding crossovers/fusions you may have, please don't hesitate to message the admin team via Discord (@narcoleptic or @verusmayaii), email (usukustwiceperyear (at) gmail.com), Twitter DM (@usukusnetwork), or Tumblr Ask. We're happy to help!

Crossover/Fusion Rules - All variations of USUKUS are allowed, including but not limited to 2P, Nyotalia, Nekotalia, etc. - Non-English language media is allowed, however, the submitted works must be in English.         >> We encourage you to select media that has an English option (dubbing, subtitled, iteration, etc.) so that people can appreciate your work as both a fanwork for USUKUS and the respective media. - Please try your best not to spoil any important plot, story, or character elements from the selected media. This is at your own discretion. - If the media you wish to select contains explicit material (referenced drug use, sexual activity), any work made for it will be marked as NSFW regardless of if your work contains any NSFW elements or not. >> If you are an underage writer or artist, any media selected that contains NSFW elements will NOT be accepted.

Writer-specific Rules - If your selected media includes terminology that is not otherwise discernible from the text alone, please do your best to elaborate/explain in the story itself for people who may not be familiar with your selected media. Likewise, if there are any unique aspects to the media's world or its functioning, please do your best to elaborate/explain in the story itself. Do not assume the reader knows anything.         >> World Example: If Genshin Impact is the selected media, then explain its in-universe magic system, especially if applicable America and England within your story.         >> Terminology Example: If Star Wars is the selected media, then explain in-universe proper nouns like the Force, Jedi, and Sith, especially as it relates to America and England within your story. - OCs are allowed to be used as long as they are not the critical focus of / do not have a significant impact on the story.

Artist-specific Rules - Outfits, iconic poses, specific locations/scenes, are all allowed, however, please use discretion when considering any spoilers for the viewers. - Please use any direct visuals listed above at your discretion as this can be considered plagiarism.

Happy April’s fool / Prucan day!:D

I hope you all had a good day today even things are hard and scary right now. 

And I hope this little thing can make you smile a little bit.:)

(Plus sticking fish to people back is a good way to pass time when stuck a home! Still for this drawing I wonder where Gil got the paper and crayons for his shark…)

Greetings everyone! Welcome to the shiny new USUKUS Twice Per Year!

First off, apologies for the delay and general radio silence. Behind the scenes here, we had a lot to work through and discuss before we could resume running this event. We're excited to be back, and hope several of the changes we've made will make things easier and more appealing to participate than ever!

Second, I'm sure everyone has some questions, so in no particular order let me try to hit the highlights.

───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───── Passing of the torch With great respect, we tip our hats to previous TPY event runners Mayumi Sato and Ixie Pixie. Exciting real life things have picked up for them, and they're no longer able to dedicate the time and energy to this like they used to. In their stead, we would like to introduce the new admins:

TheNarcolepticOne & VerusMaya II

TPY is now co-sponsored and run by and from the USUKUS Network Discord, though rest easy - as usual, all relevant information will still be posted and updated here at the tumblr. ───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───── Process changes? We've taken note of comments, concerns, and critiques of how previous events were run, and we hope the processes we've changed will alleviate several of these issues. Changes include how we accept theme suggestions, how participants submit their work, where information is posted, and overall timeline of each half of the event.

Don't fret, though - after all these changes, for the first half of this year's event, we'll take it slow and explain things step by step instead of dumping all the new stuff all at once. So stay tuned! ───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───── Wider range Previously, TPY was run almost exclusively from the tumblr with an isolated Discord. This kept many potential participants in the dark, and obfuscated the suggestion and decision making processes. We are happy to announce that TPY will be expanding its range to multiple avenues of media. Every and all announcement will be crossposted to all of these, so those interested can follow us on multiple sites or just tune in to their preferred!

You can find us at: Tumblr https://usukustwiceperyear.tumblr.com/ Twitter https://twitter.com/usukusnetwork/ Discord* https://discord.com/invite/QsaWuWCcQt

And contact us directly via: Email [email protected] Discord DM Verus#1337 or Narcoleptic#1918 * Instead of an isolated, specialized Discord just for TPY, we will be using the USUKUS Network as our staging ground. Everyone is welcome to join, and we will be happy to point you in the right direction for TPY-relevant announcements or discussion! ───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───── Thank you everyone for your patience and understanding, and we look forward to many more years of incredible content for this beloved ship!

VerusMaya II
