Today, May 3, is the feast day of Madre Juana de la Cruz, one of my favorite holy transcestors. I'm flattered that my art piece above was included in this year's sharing of QSpirit's article on Juana; I highly recommend that article for aaaall the details about Juana!

Hello, everyone!

Before you sign up, please remember that this fest deals with mature subjects and the participants are responsible for curating their own experiences within the fest. This applies to viewing the prompts list, which is uncensored.

Here’s a little F.A.Q. to help our claiming process!

First of all: CLAIMING is a first come, first serve process.

Also very important: THIS IS AN ANONYMOUSLY POSTING FEST, so we ask you not to divulge the prompt you are claiming.

To claim a prompt, you must fill out this Google Form: https://forms.gle/zP7ha1QV7hcJo8Cy9

The information we ask is:

Your name or alias & pronouns;

An e-mail account for contact (we will send a confirmation that we have received your claiming through this address);

Your Discord ID, so we can have another way of contacting you during the fest. This isn’t mandatory, but appreciated.

Your AO3 account (you must use an AO3 account to enter the fest because the works will all be posted to a collection on the site. If you do not have an AO3 account, let us know on the “anything else” section of the form);

The number of the prompt you are claiming for fic or art OR a brief description of your Self Prompt for fic or art, OR information about the fic you’ll be recording for podficcers. There are more instructions on the form.

What pairing do you intend to use on your prompt (if any);

Anything else you might want to add.

You will be able to claim ONE prompt, initially. If you’d like to create a second piece, you must finish and submit the first one before that.

This is how taken prompts will look on the list:

We will not list the claimers name on the prompt list.

Prompts list can be found here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1SKasXPDUV9oSqyJZQdOhRinELngnfu46X_MwaTb4hkI/edit?usp=sharing

The mods have varying schedules, so please be patient with hearing back from us. If you haven’t heard from us within 24 hours, assume something went wrong and contact a mod.

We have a little over 300 volunteers ready to create some amazing fanworks for this project, but still not enough prompts for everyone, so please don't forget to spare a few dollars for the Palestine Children's Relief Fund ♡

Our main priority is fundraising as much as we can for the PCRF. The situation is dire and every dollar counts, and even a small project like this one can create a significant impact in someone's life.

LINK TO THE PROOF OF DONATION & PROMPT SUBMISSION FORM:

DO NOT PROCEED BEFORE READING THE GUIDELINES THOROUGHLY:

Proof of donation is required for the prompts to be accepted and added to the list. 5 USD is the required minimum for SFW prompts, and 8 USD for NSFW prompts.

Each contributor can donate more than once, but they’ll only be allowed to submit a maximum of five prompts, no matter their donation size.

NSFW prompts can only be submitted by 18+ contributors and will be assigned to 18+ volunteers only.

Prompts need to be worded clearly in less than 100 words to avoid confusion, and they can’t include more than four Marauders era characters. Contributors can specify if they prefer a fic or a drawing, but the final product will depend on availability and may change. Prompts will be assigned randomly.

The prompts may not contain: political affiliations or discourse, religious material, gore, explicit violence, incest, or non-con. Dead dove prompts are not allowed and hateful or politically inclined prompts will be automatically deleted.

The format of the proof of donation is as follows, but we do require that the contributors show at least a part of their email address to ensure that all proofs of donation are unique.

SUNDAY Let Me Touch You or The Five TImes Sirius Black Kissed Remus Lupin and the One Time Remus Kissed Him Back Catch Me When I Fall

MONDAY Light as a Feather, Stiff as a Board The War

TUESDAY Chiaroscuro Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered

WEDNESDAY Sleepless in Scotland Food for Thought

THURSDAY Soothing Comfort Hiding in Plain Sight

How it works: Writers, artists and video editors of the Marauders fandom will create non-profit drabbles, sketches and edits in return for donations to the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund. Once proof of donation is sent, your prompt will then be assigned to a writer/artist/editor to fulfill at random. The fics will be posted to the Ao3 collection Marauders With Palestine Project, while the sketches and edits will be posted to the creator’s own accounts.

Schedule:

Writer/artist volunteer sign up: March 11th - March 31st

Donation proof and prompt submissions: April 1st - April 22nd

Prompt assignment: April 23rd - April 31st

Writing and drawing: May 1st - May 31st

Answered prompts and posting will happen starting June 1st

Thanks in advance and have a great day <3

Hi there! I’m so happy to see O Come, All Ye Faithful getting the appreciation it deserves. It is truly a brilliant moving read and toomuchplor is a fantastic author, I highly recommend going through their full catalogue. I love Drarry fics with religious themes, here are some of my favourites:

No Absolutes by @shealwaysreads (M, 400 words)

Pilgrimage by greattemptation (E, 400 words)

A meditation on sex as worship and orgasm as absolution.

In the glass I come to you by triggerlil (G, 700 words)

Draco spends a moment in an abandoned church, sees a Saint, and lights a candle. All so he can continue on a journey where he doesn't know the destination.

Amazing Grace by @potteresque-ire (G, 2.5k)

In the church at Godric's Hollow, Harry & Draco found themselves in a quest of love and belief.

For God is love by @teacup-tai (M, 3k)

1 John 4:8 But anyone who does not love does not know God, for God is love.

by which we must be saved by @hogwartsfirebolt (G, 3k)

What happened was this: the one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord was born as the seventh month died. Or: the one where Harry Potter knew his whole life that he was meant to be a savior, and Draco Malfoy joined him along the way.

Absolution by @lazywonderlvnd (E, 4k)

Draco wants absolution. Harry gives it to him.

in His name by @bonesliketambourines (E, 6.6k)

Something Dark is gathering along the Camino di Francesco, and Draco Malfoy is the only one qualified to deal with it. He insists on Potter coming along. For protection, of course, no other motive—why do you ask?

Tidings of Comfort by @blamebrampton (G, 10k)

When a man is tired of London, he is tired of life. Luckily for Draco Malfoy, London has places where the tired can rest and recover.

Good Will Towards Men by @lastontheboat (T, 16k)

Harry slowly falling for his partner? Approved. Stuck in a small room together over Christmas filling out paperwork? Approved. Having an honest conversation about his feelings? Request denied.

A Multitude of Sins by cryptonym (E, 41k)

Peter 4:8 - Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.

Modern Love by @tackytigerfic (E, 61k)

Harry Potter, of all people, knows that life isn’t always fair. And no one gets to be happy all of the time. But surely there’s something more—something better—than a rubbish Ministry job, and a lonely old house, and that feeling that everyone out there is doing a better job of living than Harry is.

At the End of All Things by @quicksilvermaid (E, WIP)

The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are real and Harry starts dreaming of them.

Bonus:

The vibes were good enough to do it all over again: we are so excited to announce the 2024 Remus/Sirius Big Bang! 

The R/S Big Bang aims to connect writers and artists in order to produce illustrated fanfiction for the Remus/Sirius pairing. We hope to encourage a spirit of collaboration that gives writers and artists the space and support they need to create truly fantastic fanworks. 

Fandom revolves around its community. We aim to run the kind of fest where all members of our Remus/Sirius community feel welcome. All tropes, genres, headcanons, heights, and dynamics are encouraged here. We hope our fest participants walk away from this experience with a full reading list and new fandom friends.

We look forward to seeing what everyone comes up with this year!

Your mods,

@maybebabyplease @mblematic @pancakehouse @colgatebluemintygel
