Erasermic Week 2019

This fic is also on ao3

Day 1: Reminiscence/Memories/Recollection

Shouta wasn’t one to reminisce. It wasn’t logical to worry about past mistakes or past occurrences because they already happened. It was much more productive to prevent those mistakes in the present and look towards making the future a better place.

His husband, on the other hand, looked towards the past often. Hizashi frequently looked at old photo albums and listened to the first pieces of music he made. He said it made him happy to see how far he had come in his life.

So, even if Shouta wasn’t all that fond of the past, he would still occasionally join his husband in looking through highschool photographs and the such, enjoying the sound of Hizashi’s voice as he rattled through all the memories while the soft sound of a playlist Hizashi put on played in the background.

“And this was the first date we went on!” Hizashi exclaimed. “We went to the new cat cafe that had opened up around the corner, though I suppose it isn’t all that new nowadays, isn’t it?”

“Yeah…” The date reminded Shouta of everything that happened before that point, just as a new song came up on Hizashi’s playlist.

Hello everyone! We want to personally thank you for making Erasermic week so wonderful, fun, and successful! We were truly blown away by the amount of people participating and all the incredible things that came out of this week! Reminder that if you’re still working on things, that’s fine! Late submissions are fine and we’ll be waiting until Wednesday to draw the winners of the giveaway!

If your things weren’t reblogged, it’s not on purpose! Unfortunately, tumblr makes us miss a lot of things. Please send us an ask here or you can IM me at @deafmic and let us know and we’ll get to it right away! 

Thank you all again so much for making this such a wonderful experience!

We really enjoyed putting this on for you, and we’d like to run other future events. As such, we’ll be changing our url to erasermicevents and start planning other future events. We’ll be talking about some ideas we have later on in this post. 

ERASERMIC SERVER

if you haven’t already joined it, there’s an Erasermic server called EM radio that’s great for talking about Erasermic and creating art and fic, as well as meeting new people and making friends. If you’d like to join the discord server, here’s the link!

FUTURE EVENTS

Right now, we have three ideas for future events that we’d like to put on. We’d also like to do a secret santa, but it’s a little too soon to start signing up for that. 

1. Big bang: if you don’t know what a big bang is, please look here! In short, a big bang is where artists and writers sign up and get paired together and artists create work that accompanies the writing. 

2. Exchange: like a secret santa, but differently themed. People make a list of prompts centering around Erasermic and those lists are given to recipients to create things off of. Everyone gets someone else’s list and everyone’s list is given to someone else.

3. Free, open zine: you’ve probably seen zines around the fandom, since they’re pretty popular nowadays, but this is a little different. An open zine doesn’t have an application process and as long as you create something within the given dimensions and by a deadline, you’ll be included. The artwork and fic would then be formatted into a digital pdf and sent out for free with an option to donate, with donations going to a charity. 

If you have other suggestions, please let us know!

 EraserMic week is over, so here is all ten drawings I did over those nine days! This was so much fun, and I actually found I loved working with the deadlines and trying to get everything out in time. Some of the images didn’t make it to completion, but we’ll see if I can finish a few of them up later. Next year I’ll have to start them earlier.

EraserMic Week Day Eight: Free Day! “Beautiful,” Hizashi murmured, bringing them back to the present while he wrapped his arms around their shoulders and pulled them back against his chest. Shouta felt their cheeks color, but they rolled their eyes anyway. “You always say that.” “You’re always beautiful.” He kissed their cheek and then grinned at their reflections, “Ready to tackle this?”

Heck yeah! An extra ninth day? Thanks, @erasermicweek

Summary:

His knees gave out and he collapsed onto the grave, vision hazy. He wasn’t sure if it was from the booze or the tears in his eyes. “Shou…” His voice was rough from underuse. His cheeks were wet; he must’ve been crying then.

It took all his strength to crawl up to the headstone and clear a space for him to sit, back against it. He held up the bottle in his hand and laughed mirthlessly. “I brought whiskey. You always said it was better for celebrating than tequila.” 

Day 9 of Erasermic Week! @erasermicweek
