What Makes This Event Special?

The Double Reverse Format

This event uses a unique artist-writer-artist structure, meaning artists create work at both the beginning AND end of the collaboration:

Artist creates initial artwork → 2. Writer creates a fic inspired by that art → 3. Artist creates second artwork inspired by the completed fic

This creates a full creative circle in which each team ends up with two pieces of art (one for two separate chapters) and one complete multichapter story.

What Makes This Event Even More Special?

Our Dick Grayson All-Ship-Friendly Reverse Big Bang focuses specifically on Dick Grayson and welcomes all ships and interpretations of the character. "All-ship-friendly" means we embrace:

Any romantic pairing (Jason/Dick, Dick/Kory, Slade/Dick, Wally/Dick, etc.

Rare pairs and polyamorous relationships (Grant/Dick/Joey/Slade, etc.)

Any rating 

Final Result

BruDick Fandom has also garnered a new additional tag on AO3. Perhaps you want to include your fanworks in Dick Grayson/Bruce Wayne-centric whenever you are creating a work that cannot be filtered for through otp: true.

Yes, time once again to begin ramping up for our annual auction! This will be our tenth (!!!) year of mobilizing the power of fandom to make donations to vital progressive causes.

It's been a difficult year -- most of us are worn down and scared. But there have been some things worth celebrating, too. SCOTUS might be selling us out, but lower courts are consistently ruling against the Trump administration, throwing up meaningful roadblocks to his agenda and vendettas. In both New York City and Seattle, committed on-the-ground organizing helped two progressive mayoral candidates to victory, opening up new possibilities for those cities and inspiring progressives around the world. And all across the US -- especially in those cities that faced targeted violence from the government -- people stepped up to take care of their neighbors: with courage, love, community spirit, and in some cases a good dash of silliness.

In other words: it's not over yet. Not even close. We can't fix it by ourselves, but we can show up to support others who are doing the work, and show up for one another at the same time.
