I love Greg. You know I do.

But I gotta say

I lost a tiny bit of respect for him

Kittens can’t regulate their own body temperature. That’s why they pile up.

Cats see us as colony members.

Masha saw a kitten that was on its own, no mommy, no other kittens to cuddle with. She instinctively knew that was a cold kitten. She knew that a kitten alone on a cold night was very likely to die. Because a kitten would have died too.

So, all she was doing was what any good colony member does - protecting the abandoned kitten. Then when the abandoned kitten’s mommy didn’t come back, she called the rest of the colony for help.

People have this bizarre idea that housecats don’t have a social sense. They do, and it saved this kid’s life. And possibly Masha’s too, as life on the streets is dangerous for a kitty.

During this time counter protesters were arrested, people were pepper sprayed, a friend of mine had a police bike slammed into her throat twice.

A Trump supporter stalked someone through the crowd and grabbed someone and started a physical altercation.

A cop at one point shook his pepper spray in my face. It wasn't until I pulled out my phone that he walked away.

At another instance a cop stood in front of me with his hand on his gun.

When the protest ended the cops pushed us away from the straight pride people using force. They used a barricade of their bikes. I was chatting with my friend collecting water when suddenly I heard screams, people running, and I felt pepper spray sprinkle my face. People were being carried away from the police to have milk poured in their eyes. At least 5 people were sprayed in that instance. Eventually someone was hit by a police motorcycle. At some point a tourist group got hit by pepper spray getting a child. A child was pepper sprayed.

The wait is over! The applications are done and they are done a month early! We want to thank everyone that has been patient with us so far. We ask that you PLEASE READ THE GUIDELINES AND CHECK OUT THE QUESTIONS THAT HAVE BEEN ASKED IF YOU HAVE NOT YET. Now, before we dive in, I want to clarify a few things for the people who ask the same questions over and over.

FIRST,

THIS IS NOT A TYPICAL BIG BANG

WE ARE A BIG BANG AS IN A BIG BANG OF CONTENT, NOT THE WRITING EXPECTATIONS

WE DO NOT EXPECT 50K FICS FROM YOU OR EVEN 10K FROM ALL OF YOU.

IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO CREATE SOMETHING THAT LONG, GO AHEAD! OUR WORD LIMIT IS 75K. BUT IF YOU WRITE SHORTER, THAT IS FINE. WE WILL PARTNER YOU ACCORDINGLY!

SECOND,

WE ARE NOT GOING TO PARTNER YOU WITH SOME RANDOM PERSON WHO DOESNT SHARE YOUR INTERESTS. THE APPLICATION IS THOROUGH SO THAT WE CAN GET YOU PARTNERED WITH SOMEONE WHO LIKES WHAT YOU LIKE AND COULD WORK WITH YOU WELL SO THAT YOUR COLLABORATION IS AS SMOOTH AS POSSIBLE. THIS INCLUDES PARTNERING WRITERS WHO HAVE A SET IDEA WITH SOMEONE WHO WOULD BE INTERESTED IN THAT IDEA.

THIRD,

TO ENSURE YOU GUYS FEEL HEARD AND OKAY, THE HOSTS WILL BE CHECKING IN EVERY WEEK TO SEE HOW YOU ARE DOING AND ANSWERING PERSONAL QUESTIONS. WE AREN’T JUST GONNA DROP YOU AND LEAVE.

Now that that has been clarified, let’s get talking.

There are four applications. General, Dark Fic, N$F\/\/, and Backup:

- If you are only planning to create for general content or controversial (which is generally reserved for colony x colonizer fics and incest outside of dark fic), you ONLY have to fill out the general application. But the general application must be filled out first by everyone, including people only applying as backups.

- You MUST be 18 to apply for NSFW. If I find you are younger, you will be kicked. You can apply for NSFW if you don’t necessarily plan to write it but wouldn’t be against it if your group/partner agrees to it.

- You do not have to participate in the collab part of the event if you only want to be a backup, just specify on the backup application

- There is no age limit on dark fic

- Please be as specific as possible so we can partner you up best we can!

If you have any concerns, you can ask on the event Discord server, on this blog, or message one of the hosts personally on @lluviadinoche or @basement-prussia. But please read the questions that have already been asked and check the guidelines and FAQ first please because we have been getting a repeat of the same questions over and over. 

Now, the applications!

GENERAL

NSFW

DARK FIC

BACKUP

And remember, you do not have to join the event to participate in this revival! You can create content using the tags #bringbackhetalia2k19 and #bringbackhetalia2020 and that work will be reblogged on this blog!
