The Fuckruary Evolution
When a show is over, the only way a fandom keeps chugging along is if fanworks are made and loved.
Going forward, the Fuckruary Twitter and Tumblr accounts will serve as tools to boost new Lucifer fanfiction with M/E-rated sex scenes and new Lucifer fanart with suggestive or more explicit visuals.
What Does and Doesn't Qualify for a Boost
To keep the fandom fresh and encourage newbies to enter, Fuckruary is focused on new or current WIPs. You can't just tag an old one-shot or completed longfic and expect the Fuckruary account to share it. To be included, your work must have been posted on or after March 1st, 2023. This can include new chapters to WIPs posted on or after this date.
Art, one-shots, and multi-chapter works are all welcome. What matters is content focus. In one shots, there should be an M/E-rated sex scene. In longfics, there should be multiple sex scenes (any pairings, so long as the character was depicted as an adult in the show) and/or sex as an obvious mechanic to move your plot forward. In other words, a 100k-word fic that has a brief sex scene 80k words in won't count. 😂 Slow burns may or may not count. For longfic, the bottom line is vibes and focus. The Fuckruary account won't give all your longfic's chapters a boost if sexual tension and erotic themes seem rare or nonexistent.
How to Get Boosted by Fuckruary
Use the tag Fuckruary Forever on AO3 and #FuckruaryForever on Twitter and/or Tumblr.
Mentioning the Fuckruary account (fuckruary on Twitter and fuckruarychallenge on Tumblr) is also wise, as social media websites sometimes hide explicit material from tag searches. If your work seems to have been missed by Fuckruary, that will probably be why. It literally wasn't seen due to algorithmic shenanigans. 😢
Don't forget to boost others. This is a community effort! RT/reblog works when you see them, and don't forget to comment, bookmark, and kudos the works that interest you most!
