As before, we are not dedicating a day for AU/Freeform - instead, if you want to replace any days with prompts you are not inspired by with it you can, we just ask to keep it Winter themed! For free day here's a few extra ideas that you may feel inspired by: reflection, winter holiday, new beginnings, mascots, winter ball.
TO PARTICIPATE:
Once the week arrives, simply tag your work with #winterryulockweek2026 and/or @ryulockweek at us on Bluesky or Tumblr, and we'll share it!
If you're sharing your work on AO3, feel free to submit it to the Ryulock Week (ryulockweek) Collection!
Suggestive/NSFW works are allowed within Tumblr/Bluesky limitations. Just make sure to tag/label/filter your piece appropriately so it can be shared!
If you are making suggestive/NSFW works for Ryulock Week: Ryunosuke and (S)herlock must be adults; the pieces must be fully consensual.
We'll be on the lookout for entries posted up to one week before the event, and then one week after (and honestly, probably beyond that too).
We're all very excited to see all the submissions and we hope you all have a great time <3
Thank you so much again!!
