Chapter 1: Breathe the Smoke of What is Left Behind
Summary:
Lisa Swain — widow, full-time firefighter, and mum to a feisty teenager — is simply going through the motions of living since her wife's untimely death. Unable to process her grief, and struggling through an increasingly fractious relationship with her daughter, Lisa's world is turned on its head when she meets Carla, a fierce but big-hearted factory owner. When a spark ignites between the two, will Lisa be able to open herself up to the potential for growth, no matter how hard or painful, or will she douse the fire before it takes hold?

To participate, create fanworks inspired by the squares on the board above (and swarla!!), and post your work to tumblr and use the tag #swarlasummer or tag @swarlasummer. For fanfiction on ao3, works can be added to the Swarla Summer collection. You can do one square, try to get a line or go for the whole bingo!
The event starts July 1st and ends August 31st.
Please read the FAQs and the rules below before participating.
If you have further questions, please send an ask or message me over at @puppetsoftomorrow :)
[bingo board text: date night, interrupted, family, the moment, don't... don't what?, underworld, surprise, police business, reunited, flirting, number six, neighbours / community, free choice!, holidays / celebrations, behind closed doors, proposal, phone calls and texts, intimacy, rings, just breathe, injury / hospitals, comfort, wedding, drunk / hungover, photographs.]
how do i participate?
you can participate through anything - with gifsets, fanfiction, fanart, edits, videos, playlists, essays, moodboards, headcanons - whatever medium you like!
you can reuse or re-promote something you've made previously, providing it aligns with a prompt.
the event starts 1st July, you can start prepping now, but don't post the work until 1st July.
'free choice' means you can do whatever you like! go wild!!!
you don't have to take the most obvious route of the prompt, creative interpretations are encouraged :)
you can do more than one work per prompt, if you like, or several prompts in one work.
if you like, you can download the board and cross off which ones you've done and post this to tumblr - a fun way to keep track!
there's no obligation to do all the tiles or even more than one! just do what you can manage :)
you can also participate by commenting on fics, reblogging tumblr posts etc, it's just as important!!
what if i need More prompts?
if you'd like more prompts, or want to swap out a prompt from the board above, you can use the bonus tiles below!
[bonus tiles text: music / lyrics, second chances, the future, touch, honeymoon, in another life, soulmates, secrets / secrets revealed, coffee or wine, engagement island, what else can't you say?, hunker in our bunker]
you can also use the 'reverse it' power up!! reverse any prompt to make it the opposite - i.e. comfort becomes no comfort, secrets becomes no secrets. (creative interpretations of what 'reverse it' means are encouraged!!)
rules:
You can't participate with something someone else created, even if you credit them or ask their permission. You must have created the work yourself (or with friends!)
Carla and Lisa don't have to be the only characters, but they should be the main focus of anything created.
AI is absolutely not allowed - you can't use it to generate work or edit work. If I find AI has been used, your work won't be allowed in the event. However, I don't want others making accusations that works are AI - this isn't the space for a witch-hunt. If you have concerns, please approach me privately at @puppetsoftomorrow, but any final decisions on what to allow are up to me.
The event will nominally run from 1st July to 31st August, but the blog and collection will remain open beyond that, so if you're late, you can still participate.
Please be kind and supportive to others.
Also, I know there's a big swarla community on twitter, so I'm fine if the bingo board gets posted over there, but please know I'm not on twitter and won't see anything that’s on there, and it isn't officially part of the event if it's only posted on twitter. Please also credit me as the creator of the board :)
As an overall disclaimer: I, puppetsoftomorrow, am running this event, and I get the final say in what gets reblogged and how this is run, and I reserve the right to do whatever I want :)
anyway!! lets have fun, and have a swarla summer!! :)

Carla and Lisa find a way to stay warm one cold December night
tags: Fluff and Smut, set early in the relationship, specifically between Christmas & NYE 2024, Carla can't believe how lucky she is & fantasises about her future with Lisa during sex, just a lil something for Pride Month, with the teeniest smidgeon of angst
--
It makes Carla think of cool sunscreen being massaged into warm skin, and how much she wants to experience the feeling of Lisa doing that for her. How much she wants to do that for Lisa.
(She would let her hands wander into risqué territory, and cheekily cop a feel. Depending on how public a place they were in, Lisa might scold her — though she suspects it would lack any conviction.
(Carla would stifle any half-hearted protestation with a kiss.))
It makes her think of condensation on a cold fizzy pop can dripping onto bare skin while lounging in the sun.

If you EVER think Anthony Head is anything less than an angel then you’d best remember that I have always been a huge fan of his and we’ve always had a little contact over the years and he heard I’d come out as Trans and was having a hard time and that I was kind of sad that the photos I had from conventions with him were of me with long hair and no binder and they were all signed to “Sarah” and so he invited me to spend the day with him at his farm and he picked me up from the station and we just hung out and had lunch and he insisted on paying and took loads of photos and had them printed on photo paper the same day so he could sign them to Jay, along with other photos of him as Giles and Uther and he literally spent five hours chatting with me and got all of the pronoun stuff right every time and then he dropped me off at the station, gave me a final massive hug, waved me through the ticket barrier and insisted I message him when I got home so he knew I got back safe.

haven't used my laptop for 4 weeks while I've been away, so now I'm attempting to switch it on again so I can complete my work today, it's of course having an identity crisis (complete with blue screen of death, oh joy) 😭
