[summerofteam69]

Hello to all team 69 enthusiasts! This summer, prepare for a celebration of the beautiful reality that the Ninth is bosom with the Sixth, no matter what sorts of lies Harrow wants to tell herself.

Running from June 9th through September 6th -- 6/9-9/6 or 9/6-6/9, however you write your dates!

The idea is to write, draw, post, and share links to team 69 content. Get your Harrows and Pals, your Cams and Gideons, your "Masterful work, Reverend Daughter"s, your "Ask me how I am and I'll scream"s.

Get your Palamedes holding Gideon's hand, your Camilla telling Harrow how to hold a sword properly! Your "Do you know, I miss Harrow terribly."

Put them in canon, post canon, or canon divergence, put them in an au, share an ao3 link of your favorite team 69 work. The world is your oyster.

We will be sharing weekly prompts/categories to work with, but you should feel free to create whatever you want! The prompts are intended to inspire works of any rating, smut is welcome, wholesome works are welcome, there is room for one and all. Just please make sure everything is tagged appropriately!

Credit for the concept, the name, and a majority of the prompts goes to members of The Library discord server.

Happy 69ing!

hi + happy reveals! i submitted some treats last night, and it looks like they were accepted to the collection but are for some reason still unrevealed. is that an issue on my end?

Hey there! It was an issue on our end too for a bit. We managed to resolve it so those treats should be visible now. Sorry for the mishap.

If you encounter further issues, please email us at [email protected].

So excited for reveals tn!!!

There's a lot of good works this year! We can't wait to share them!

[tlt-holiday-exchange]

All exchange gifts are IN!

2025 is OUT! The collection will reveal at its scheduled time this weekend.

If you want your treat submitted for the anonymous period, now is the time to get them in!

[tlt-holiday-exchange]

Post-Deadline Pinch Hits are here! Come get your Post-Deadline Pinch Hits!

We will only reveal the collection when everyone has a gift. If we're still waiting for gifts to come in, we will delay the collection.

Pinch hits are claimed on our Dreamwidth on a first-come-first-serve basis. You do not have to be signed up for the exchange to claim a pinch hit.

There's still one left! Who wants it?

[tlt-holiday-exchange]

I fulfilled one of my giftee’s requests by the deadline but am still interested in writing a treat for them for one of their other prompts. Is this okay/is there a deadline to post treats? Tysm!

Hello! What a lucky giftee!

There is no official deadline for treats. The collection will remain open indefinitely after the collection reveals, so you can post a treat whenever you wish.

If you want your treat to be part of the anonymous period, it should be posted before author reveals, which is currently planned for January 11, 2026. The collection will reveal a week prior on January 3.

Hope this helps! Happy creating!

It's December 27 -- DAWN OF THE FINAL CREATION DAY. Get your works in by 11:59pm PST. We are no longer accepting requests for extensions. If you do not submit a work by the deadline, you will be automatically defaulted and your assignment will go out as a post-deadline pinch hit.

quick question! if im fulfilling my assignment i do NOT need to put the giftees name in the "gift this work to" field, correct?

No you do not NEED to. You can if you want to though!

[tlt-holiday-exchange]

is it against the rules to set the publication date to the works revealed date?

It is not. You can do whatever you want to the publication date. BUT! AO3 will not let you set the date to a date that has not happened yet. So if you wanted to update the date on your work, it should be on or after reveals. Hope this helps!

[tlt-holiday-exchange]

And . . . NOW is the time to panic. Deadline is December 27 at 11:59pm PST. If you for sure cannot make the deadline, you can ask for an extension by emailing the mods. Or you can default without penalty. We're not yer moms.

What happens if I defaulted but also submitted a drabble as a treat for my giftee?

Since the drabble is a treat (and assumably doesn't meet the 1,000 word minimum), we would still find a pinch hitter for your giftee.

Hope this helps!

[tlt-holiday-exchange]

Deadline is December 27 at 11:59pm PST. Save the panicking for later.

If you need to default, now is the time to do so.
