So apparently my brain decided that what the Eagle of the Ninth really needed was post-canon bisexual chaos, polyamory, and a druid with a strawberry agenda.
🍓Polyamorous OT3 💘✨
Marcus/Esca/Cottia (MMF), slow burn, angst, fluff, and Romano-British historical nonsense in equal measure.

Since there might be some questions regarding what the event is and how it might exactly work, I'm putting down an FAQ to maybe clarify some of those questions!. If there's any more questions feel free to leave them down here or send me an ask!
What exactly is a mini-bang?
A mini-bang is just a smaller version of a Big Bang Event.
Don't know what a big bang is in the first place? In short, it's basically an event involving fanfics, accompanied by fan art, a collaboration between writers and artists, where the artists make a piece to go along with the story.
All adaptations of the Witcher would be allowed as the source material for the event.
2. How will the WItcher Mini-Bang work?
Once everyone has signed up, writers will be sending in summaries for their fics, which will consist of the summary as well as fic rating, potential word count, characters, relationships, fic tags and any warnings if applicable.
Once submitted, a form would be made for the artists and beta readers where they would be able to go through the summaries and select their top 3 fics they'd like to work with.
According to the inputs, I will then be assigning teams, which will then be working together, discussing the fics within their teams/other participants in the server for additional inputs if they'd like.
(more under the cut!)
3. When will the sign-ups be starting?
Sign-ups will start some time in November (most likely the 15th of November, but it really depends on how things go on irl for me)
4. Are there any specific rules and guidelines for the event?
Yes, there will be some guidelines for every role, most of it being specifications on what the minimum expectation of work would be (i.e. a minimum word count for fic writers and level of completion for artwork expected). These will be specified when the sign-up forms are released.
However, if there's a specified minimum, there won't be any upper limit for what you'd be allowed to do (such as, if the minimum word count is lets say 2k words, you can definitely just go ahead and write something of 10k words or more given that you finish the fic in time. Same goes for artists. you can make make more that one piece and work with multiple fics if you'd like)
All works created for this event must be new or not shared anywhere else prior to this. AI WILL NOT AT ALL BE ALLOWED OR TOLERATED.
Other than that, there won't be many rules imposed on what people would wish to work on. The only major thing I'd say would be to tag your works appropriately so that people can filter what they want to or won't want to see.
We'd want everyone to have fun and also for everyone to feel safe.
5. Would the writers have to start a new fic or would an older WIP work?
Using an old wip is fine. The only requirement is that it should not have been posted before.
6. Where would the communications for the event happen?
Most of the communication for the event would happen over a discord server since it is easier to make teams, have announcements and discussions and just overall work together.
7. Is there a discord server for the event?
Yes, there is. The link to the server would be given to you once you have signed up for the event.
8. Will rarepairs be allowed in the fic?
You can write anything you want forever. Go wild o7
9. If someone were to apply to write a fic but is somewhat fluent in English, would they be assigned a beta reader for that?
Yes absolutely. When you, as a writer, would be providing fic summaries, there would be an additional notes part in the form where you could put in specifications for what your expectations would be from your beta readers, which they'd be able to view while selecting the fics they'd want to work with.
If you might have any other questions, or want clarification on something, feel free to leave a reply, send an ask or dm me!
I'd love to know more about your inputs for the min-bang so feel free to also fill this interest check form so that I can nail down details for it better.
I'd been thinking about it for a little bit and I was wondering if people would be interested, I'd like to host a mini bang for The Witcher!

I've been working on some fanart for one of my favourite Witcher fics, A Lover's Lament by @somedrunkpirate. It's 25k words of scary, beautiful and enthralling Geraskier fic, with one of the most original monster ideas I've ever read! So do check it out if you fancy a spooky bedtime story with a nice happy ending:

It's been ages since I got my Krita out, so I did some smutty art for my AO3 fic! 🥳🌈
The fic is now complete at 22 chapters and 118k words long, full of all my favourite things: serial killer horror vibes, sci-fi monsters, egregious smut and a happy ever after ending. It's a "witchers in space" kind of alternative universe (people have told me it reads a bit like an episode of Firefly, which I was very flattered by!!), so if you're looking for something a bit different to read you can check it out on AO3 here:

Archaeologising in Glenelg, with a wee visit to a pair of neighbouring brochs - Dun Telve and Dun Troddan. My partner is obsessed with brochs and was pretty happy to see these twin beauties! Nobody really knows what brochs were built for (theories abound), but there's a lot of them in Scotland, particularly in the North and West. They're late Iron Age but some were in use until the Early Medieval (Dark Ages) – and these ones are apparently from around 400-200 BCE.
Something very noticeable - over two thousand years later, it's still bone dry inside the walls – which in a place as damp, mossy and rainy as here is a real testament to the skills of the builders. Dun Telve is over 10m high and would be more intact, but in 1722 the British State robbed half of it out to build the Bernera Barracks – part of the fledging United Kingdom's deliberate destruction of Gaelic culture and the beginnings of its ethnic cleansing of the Scottish Highlands.
But the brochs still endure – watching over Gleann Beag and unmoved by the elements...

My art for Dreams of Doom, an awesome and darkly hilarious fic by @bilgewater01 for @theterrorreversebang, featuring Captain Crozier doing his best against lovable scamp Mr Hickey and a demonic entity from the mythical ghost ship Octavius.

It's pretty sexually graphic in places and in no way suitable for minors or people with sensitive dispositions, but it's a wry and revealing insight into the Mr Hickey we all know and love ♥️
(the second image is cropped to comply with Tumbler's content policies but you can see the full thing on my twitter.com/Magpiesmodnight)
He had this dream first on a Monday, and he had it every day since then. Today was Sunday. The clearing stretched just halfway towards the horizon in all directions; he rowed towards the vessel for an abstractly long while. He was well acquainted already with the main deck of the old schooner, so he went below, he went to the galley, he went to the head, he inspected the forecastle and the hold—all from mere idle curiosity. He looked into the mate's stateroom. There he saw Little, reading a book, A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens. Only at last he went to the cabin. And it was not himself that he saw here now, on a Sunday, and not Fitzjames. On the bed, under blankets, lay the giant Magnus Manson. On the captain's desk (not at it on the chair, but rudely on top of it) sat the icy cadaver of Hickey, the caulker's mate. The lifeless little and pale figure, with frost shimmering like satin in the light of the oil lamp, almost a porcelain doll with physiognomy of a sneering ferret, was unnaturally twisted that it faced the door, frozen eyes gawking at him. Crozier started, then he shook his head and went closer. Books on the desk were open—they were the same as when it was himself and Fitzjames peopling the cabin. He looked at the body, its frozen eyes still as if aimed at him despite the minute change of the angle, and when he made a step—the eyes followed him, and an eyelid strained in an attempt to blink...
Crozier sensed a devil of the worst sort in him.

My Terror Reverse-Bang collaboration with @bilgewater01 will be posted on 2nd May! If you've ever wondered what a happy ending would look like for Cornelius Hickey, and you're a fan of the strange, dark and mysterious delivered in fic format on AO3 with accompanying art... then this is for you!
My mystery date art from the @witcher-bows-and-arrows Valentine's Day event.
The prompt was 'sailing on a boat together', so naturally this art had to involve the coast, and if I can work in a scene from Homer's Odyssey then so much the better!
NB: No sirens were harmed during this date. Jaskier just wanted to listen to their trippy music and Geralt was feeling indulgent...

My @witcherficwriters fic for @mothpiercings is now complete on AO3 with links to some downloadable RenPy files and visual novel that's browser playable on itch.io, https://archiveofourown.org/works/43823854/chapters/110195752
It was a lot of fun putting this all together, and here's a selection of my art!
My @witcherficwriters gift for @mothpiercings with some time travelly post-S01E6 fix-it themes!
On the theme of being betrayed... :(
I have done a few arts for this particular story but I don't want to share them all right now cos some are endings for the visual novel I made with RenPy. You can pick a ship (Jaskier/Geralt or Jaskier/Geralt/Yennefer) to choose the ending you want from the story.
There's some download and installation notes on how to run the visual novel on my AO3 post and give me a shout if you need a hand within any of the file set up!
The art and visual novel link is on AO3 here https://archiveofourown.org/works/43823854/chapters/110195752
