Beetlejuice OC Week Rules!
First of all! Welcome, all, and Iām so glad youāre seeing this post! This month weāre going to be doing our first OC week for the Beetlejuice fandom. We noticed all of the other lovely ship weeks like Beetlelands week cropping up and thought weād put our heads together to present our own. OCs and self-inserts have been rather under-appreciated in this fandom and we thought that it deserved a week of its own.Ā
We want to make sure that this all remains rather orderly, so of course, there are some ground rules to address!
-Beetlebabes do not interact with this event.
Because of discourse and of course that section of the fandomās tendency to age up and lewd minors such as Lydia and from what the mod team has seen, other characters on the side, we do not want any babes entering this contest. Babes have tended to pester people rudely with self-inserts and OCS that are shipped with Beetlejuice. We donāt want that negativity here or anyone who partakes in their group.
Edit: No these rules will not be altered or made an exception for any individual. There are no exceptions to this matter.Ā
-Minor x Adult Shipping is not allowed
For the same reason we have a no Beetlebabes policy, we also want to make sure no other canon minor or adults are shipped with oc minors or adults. If your oc or self-insert is an adult as well as your shipping of choice, it should be okay. Minor x minor is okay, just as long as it isnāt explicit.Ā
-Keep it PG-13
There is never a day that passes in this fandom without the occasional death joke or innuendo being made, but keep in mind that contestants that may enter are not all going to be adults. We probably will have a good handful of minors that come across this page. No NSFW should be submitted, we will not reblog it if we are tagged in it.
-Self insert OCS and regular ocs are welcome
Weāve all seen the arguments in any fandom before. That a self-insert doesnāt amount to a well thought out oc. That itās a āMary Sueā or anything of that sort. We donāt want that to be the case here. Even if youāre character is supposed to be you, we find your comforts valid. Come on, itās 2020, are we still really canceling self-inserts?
-Any version of the Beetlejuice universe is welcome.
You are free to do any version of the media with any character. Beetlejuice from the movie? Go for it! Ms. Argentina from the musical? Sure! Claire Brewster from the cartoon? By all means! We canāt wait to see it!
-Any relationship with any canon character is welcome.
This event is not limited to romance. We know people who have ocs and self-inserts that happen to be mere friends and we have created the prompts to be neutral so such relationships. Family members, friends, lovers, perhaps even enemies. We have tried our best to put our heads together and present you with a prompt list that isnāt biased to any one relationship dynamic.
-Tag properly so we can reblog it.
Please use #Beetlejuiceocweek2020 or tag us so we can properly reblog and give you that reach so we can all enjoy everyoneās amazing characters! Weāre going to of course see how this year goes and maybe weāll make this an annual thing!
