Welcome to An Exquisite Purge

We're lacking the government-sanctioned funding and most of the murder, but we hope you'll hear us out anyway.

Have you ever been sitting around, bored, creatively blocked? Maybe you're the opposite, constantly on the move, too many ideas fighting for first place... well, boy howdy, do we have a terrible event for you.

An Exquisite Purge - a creative event made by @curioushabitforarivergod for the fools over in an exquisite tomarrymort server (18+) on Discord - is a 24-hour commit to the bit where a "purger" will be gifted the ability to randomly, without notice, at any time of any day, trigger a purge.

They get to select a prompt, as long or short as they like, and then everyone who has the purge role has 24 hours to post anything inspired by the prompt. It can be a 100-word drabble or a 20,000-word novella, a fully rendered comic, a simple character study, a doodle or a piece of dialogue. The form is ours to choose - the only rule is to create and share it within the time limit.

Posting can be done on Discord, here on Tumblr with an @exquisitetomarrymortpurge and our #exquiste purge tag, or over on our Collection on AO3 (managed by the lovely @known-concepts).

After that's complete, the purger will pass the privilege on to a person of their choosing...

I can finally reveal the fic I wrote for a super cool flash fest hosted by a lovely person in the @character-a-character-b discord. It was called Fic Freestyle, and for good reason! The fest was all about creating fanworks in something other than the usual narrative prose. Very cool!

HP Pride Flash Fest!

This fest is a week long event dedicated towards pride HP characters! Any generation and any characters welcome! More information under the cut!

It’ll run from June 9th to June 15th!

Welcome to Fandom of Our Own's flash fest: Light Years, where we transcend our own reality. Within this collection, you'll find a variety of prompts that you can interpret in any way you like. We have hopes that the end result will look like a collection of fics from an array of different fandoms.

As always, and if we haven't made it clear yet, this event is open to everyone and every fandom. We're welcoming all of you to get involved. We do ask that you join our Discord server, but it isn't mandatory to take part. We do, however, post updates and information on there that might not always make its way onto Tumblr.

Timeline:

Sign-ups Open: 5/4/25 Sign-ups Close: 12/4/25 Assignments Due: 26/4/25 Assignments Revealed: 27/4/25 Creators Revealed: 1/5/25

Although the event has a 'sign-ups close' date, this only relates to whether you want to create a prompt within the collection. You're more than welcome to claim a prompt during the duration of this month and post it to be revealed with the rest. We must ask, though, that you only claim one prompt and that it's one prompt per person so there are no double-ups.
