Jun. 11th, 2025 08:43 amkarel posting in fire_emblemHello again! After reading feedback, what I'll get into the works for us are several prompt lists, themed per game, 7 prompts each, for a week of fanworks per game. Fanworks will be open to fanart, icons, fanfic, meta, FSTs, gifsets, etc!
I'm underway with 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, Awakening, Fates, 3H, and Engage, but here's where I ask for some community help, as I'm quite weak on other series entries!
What I'm asking for is prompts submitted in the format of game - prompt(s) - you're welcome to suggest anywhere from one to the whole 7 days, and as well, folks are welcome to submit for the games I've already mentioned working on. I have comment screening on such that people aren't deterred by seeing something already submitted and also to maintain an element of surprise for participants. I'll unscreen any comments with general questions that might be of use to the community!
I'll look at a calendar to determine timing soon, and will get a community up and running to host!

Jun. 8th, 2025 09:19 amkarel posting in fire_emblemJust a quick hello that I'm back on DW finally, apologies for disappearing!
Considering doing some sort of a little community event - perhaps an exchange? A little fanworks fest? A fanweek with a prompt list?
Anything y'all folks have been hoping for?

New banner
Jun. 8th, 2025 03:25 ampaperghost posting in fire_emblem
A new Awakening banner with two Grimas to boot.
I haven't been paying close attention to FEH after CYL and the Fell banner last month, but what sticks out to me is Noire finally left alt hell after (almost) 7 years.
2025 Check-In Open
Jun. 7th, 2025 08:08 pmlongficmod posting in fandom5kCheck-in week has arrived! Please go over to this form and fill it in.
If you have multiple assignments (for example, an assignment and a pinch hit) please fill the form in separately for each assignment that you have.
You are required to check in by 11:59pm EDT 14 June 2024. (countdown) If you don't, I will assume you are defaulting. This is also the default deadline to avoid makeup assignments for future rounds.
Please note that all people participating in the exchange as a creator (either as a participant or as a pinch hitter) are required to check in. If you have already turned in your assignment, you're not required to check in, but it's no problem if you do.
I will hold off on posting new pinch hits until the end of the check-in period, so keep an eye out for those!
If you prefer not to use Google forms or have trouble with the form, you can leave a comment here answering the questions below the cut.

Just Stab Me Now

A comic tale of a writer taking off into fantasy romance for a break. And to escape her frustrating job.
Her notion of a heroine hits the actual heroine, who is middle-aged, a widow, and the mother of two children trying desperately to protect them.

Keeping up with chores
Jun. 7th, 2025 12:21 pmsoc_puppetIt's time for another episode of America's favorite game show: Rotate! That! Mattress!
Edit: And returning contestant Socchan has done it again! The mattress has been rotated 180°, and the sheets changed at the same time. This time around, Socchan notably chose not to move the dresser at the foot of the bed, seeming to save some extra seconds in the final time and some overall effort. Will Socchan continue this gamble in upcoming appearances? Only time will tell!
Today, as in every episode, Socchan walks away with a mattress that has been slightly rejuvenated and whose lifespan has been extended just a bit longer, as well as the feeling of sleeping on fresh sheets to look forward to.
Join us again in two months for another episode of Rotate That Mattress!
