First time hearing about Lights on Park Ave? Here’s an introduction for all you newcomers!
Lights on Park Ave is a Steve/Tony prompt challenge. Every two months, there are several prompts following a general theme. Each round lasts two months, and everyone is welcome to make fanworks inspired by one or more of the prompts during the round. There are no sign-ups, and you can join at any time. You can see the current round here.
The guidelines are as follows:
ACCEPTED WORKS
Art, crafts, fics, graphics/edits, gifs, manips, mood boards, poetry, and videos (if the medium you want to use isn’t listed, ask! Most likely you’ll be able to use it)
ALL topics, work lengths, ratings, and universes are accepted
There is NO minimum work requirement or limit to how many works you can submit! If you only want to write two lines or draw a rough sketch, that’s fine. If you want to make works for every single prompt, go for it
Incomplete/unfinished works are allowed whether or not you plan to finish them at a later point
It is up to you how much you want to reference a prompt (or prompts! You can combine multiple). You can build your whole work around the prompt or have it be a radical departure that is only loosely connected to the prompt or the round's theme
All works must be new works inspired by a Lights on Park Ave prompt. Works for other events are allowed as long as the rules of the other event allow that and/or you have permission from the mods. You CANNOT use existing works or works that are already finished although you are welcome to expand on an existing work you made. Please do not remix or make a work inspired by someone else’s work unless they have given you permission
THE STEVE/TONY PART OF THE CHALLENGE
Works must focus on Steve and Tony’s relationship whether it’s gen or slash
Works featuring or focusing on only Steve or only Tony are okay
Other relationships (e.g., Bucky/Natasha) can be featured as long as Steve and Tony are the predominant focus of the work
All relationship permutations are accepted. Pre-slash, unrequited love, requited love, mutual or one-sided pining, established relationship, breakup…go wild! However, if Steve and/or Tony are in a relationship at the end of the work, Steve/Tony must be endgame and no other character can be in the relationship with them
CHALLENGE ROUNDS
You can post your work anywhere as long as you provide a link. You can also submit it privately on the submission page or by Tumblr/Twitter DM
Tumblr/Twitter: Tag #lightsonparkave and/or mention @lightsonparkave to be reblogged or retweeted
AO3: Add your work to the Lights on Park Ave collection
A new round starts on the first day of every month and ends on the last day. A master list of all the works for a round will be posted once it’s over
You are welcome to fill old rounds/prompts regardless of when the round occurred or what round the prompt is from! It does not matter if the deadline for that round already passed. If you do, please note which prompt it is for. Your work will be reblogged/shared, and old master lists will be edited to include your fill although the lists won’t be reblogged
Any questions? Send an ask or DM. Lights on Park Ave is also on Twitter.
