i am happy to announce that july 21st to july 27th will be the very first alma torran week 2025! to everyone that shared the original post and completed the interest check, thank you so much! i wouldn't have had the motivation to do this without you guys.

make sure to tag this account, @alma-torran-week, in each post you submit for this event and use the tag ( #alto week 2025 ). for fanfic writers, please post your work to ao3. make sure to post your work to the alma torran week collection here.

you can submit multiple fanworks. please make sure the latest you submit anything is july 30th.

any kind of fanwork (art, fanfiction, graphics, imagines, etc.) pertaining to the alma torran arc and its characters will be accepted, so long as it meets the following requirements:

01. absolutely NO AI used to create or edit fanwork. this does not mean you can't look for ideas from an AI generated prompt, but do not submit any work in which AI was used in the creation or editing process.

02. no bashing of others' work.

03. no plagiarism of any kind.

04. no proship pairings. this includes incest, adult/child, and anything else that falls under the proship umbrella, as this is an event for the GENERAL fandom and ships of that nature can be very uncomfortable or triggering for some folks (myself included!).

MY SHAYLAAAA MY SHAYLA

Quite disappointed with how it turned out and i was hesitating whether to start a new one but i just pushed it through since it'll be a waste and i have a lot of WIP artworks that I've abandoned.

Ill just do better next time.

There was one episode with a trans woman getting different gender-affirming operations, including breast implants. It showed the procedure, and (what I found so fascinating that it's stuck with me for decades), as soon as the doctor put the implant in, a censor blur popped up on the nipple.

And you just know there was a meeting between the TLC lawyers and the editors and producers of the show to discuss what the difference was between a "man nipple" (can be shown) and a "woman nipple" (no no must obscure, 'tis naughty). And they decided that as soon as the implant goes in and the nipple has more mass behind it, that's the moment when it becomes a woman's nipple and must be hidden to comply with TV rules.

But it's the same nipple. On the same person. I know what it looks like; I just saw it. But TV and obscenity rules are rules, and the rules say woman nipple = sexual and therefore explicit, but man nipple = neutral, just fine.

BROKEN

IF people acknowledge it, they play the necessity card– there weren’t any women out on the range, so they had to “resort to men.” this claim completely erases 1) the romantic (not just sexual) writings of actual cowboys, 2) the acknowledgement of cowboys’ potential homosexual activity by writers at the time, and 3) the possibility that some men would deliberately become cowboys with the intent to seek out homosexual encounters.

HAPPY PICCOLO DAY!
