#gw2026

How do I participate? You don’t have to subscribe to anything or announce what you’re doing, you just have to post your work on the appropriate day and tag me on the body of the post using @gallavichthings. It’s important that you tag me properly so that I can be sure to see your post and reblog it.

What types of works are accepted? Any kind of original fan work is accepted, including but not limited to: fanart, fanfiction (no minimum words required), graphics, gifs and gifsets, videos, and fanmixes. Yes, meta and polls are also accepted (though I do request that you either try to keep them within the theme for each day or post them on the Free Day). You can also remix someone else's work, as long as you have their permission. The use of AI is forbidden.

When can I start posting? As long as it's already (or still) the correct day for you, post away! Who cares about timezones?

Can I still participate even if I don’t have a Tumblr account? Absolutely! Just submit something here (http://gallavichthings.tumblr.com/submit).

Can I post on other social media platforms? You sure can, but I only have Twitter, which I don’t check that often anymore, so I do encourage you to post here as well, so it can be seen by more people.

Is there an AO3 Collection? Yes, right here. Participation is not mandatory though, and you can rest assured this Collection will not be deleted.

Can I post something that I’ve already posted before? No, sorry. The works should have been created specifically for GW. You can, however, create a sequel or a different version of a previous work.

Can I post something that is not in English? Of course. Just make sure that it is original, or that you have the original author’s permission (and, in that case, link to the original too).

Can I make R-rated works? Yes, just please give any necessary warnings and tell us the rating at the very beginning of the post. If the post is visual (like a fanart or a gifset), it would be nice for you to also tag it accordingly - Tumblr now allowes you to select if a post is deemed for mature audiences or not. It’s not mandatory, but if possible put it under a Read More here on Tumblr and under a spoilers mark (so it’s not instantly visible) on Twitter.

Can I post something that’s AU? Sure thing! Tag it accordingly though, both for those who want to avoid it and for those who’d like to find it.

Can I post supernatural works, mpreg, genderbends or other more 'niche' content? Yes! But if it’s a fic, please include it in the warnings.

Can I post more than one work? Definitely! The more, the merrier. You can post as many works as you want, on as many days as you want, be it one post per day or ten on the same day. Anything goes!

Can I post on more than one day? Do I have to make something for each day? Again, the more, the merrier! You can post on only one or all days if you wish!

Can I make one work that fits two or more themes? Sure thing. I only ask that you post it on the day of the last theme included. For example, if you are posting a work that includes the theme from Day 1 and the theme from Day 4, post it on day 4 (just make sure to tell me that it includes both).

Can I write a multi-chaptered fanfiction? Yes, and you don’t have to post everything either. When you do, just be sure to include either a masterpost, or the links to the previous chapters in the beginning.

Can I include other characters/pairings in my work? Yes, as long as Gallavich is still the focus.

He seemed a little... Put-off at first by the usual Gallagher shenanigans. Debbie's unsettling headless dolls, and Carl's various violent endeavours. 

But over a couple of weeks, he starts to warm up to them. To bond with the kids. And when they dance at the ball, it's like a shining moment when the old Mickey is back. 

For Ian, the relief at having Mickey home is sharp and sweet, only tempered by his guilt that Mickey doesn't remember the argument that drove him out in the storm all those years ago. For years he'd feared his husband dead, but now he's back and as soon as Mickey settles in he's sure he'll have a chance to show him all the ways in which he's missed him. All the ways he's sorry.

So when Mickey asks to see the vault, he doesn't think much of it, even if there's a haunted look in his eye. 

Ian grins at him, nudges his shoulder. Grabs the book. Mickey's face breaks into a grin too.

"GREED!" they say, and they share a look as the bookcase spins that's just like the looks they used to share. Fondness and joy.
