#hxhbb2020

here’s my piece for @hxhbigbang2020 of ‘Leorio Goes to Radioshack’ by @kiwizoom

Sorry for the delay, but it’s finally here!!! This is my submission for the @hxhbigbang2020 😆🎉🎉

This is for @kiwizoom’s fic titled “Leorio goes to RadioShack” !!! <3<3

It’s a fun fic set in 1999 where the main four (plus the spiders) go to the mall and hijinks occur. This is the scene right before they split up to have their own adventures. It’s currently uploading weekly on AO3 and it comes with awesome banners!

“ …his spine aligning with the curve of Chrollo’s torso as arms encircled him. He was gripped close, like he might otherwise float away beyond this haunted greenery. “

One of the pieces I drew for @hxhbigbang2020 for That Which Waits by @bugtongue (if you’re a fan of  KrKr, Southern Gothic, Supernatural elements in beautifully written prose, or any combination of all of those then you should absolutely read it!! Not to mention the absolute banger of an accompanying Spotify playlist that I’ve had on repeat for the past week or so)

And this was my @hxhbigbang2020 piece for Killugon 15, a fic currently only available by Google doc!

@hxhbigbang2020 For the story High & Dry! I had a blast doing this, and I tried a bunch of new things! I hope you like the pictures as much as I did, and everyone go read the story! It’s really fluffy and cute!!

We’re bringing back the event by popular demand, so let’s welcome 2020 with the good ol hxhbb

*WHAT IS THE BIG BANG?*

~there are several variations but traditionally a big bang is when an author writes a larger fic while an artist creates a work of art (or multiple) for them. This will result in an influx of new works for the hxh Fandom to enjoy and as an added bonus, it will encourage collaboration between Fandom writers and artists.

*SO HOW WILL THIS WORK?*

~authors will sign up to write a fic, and once the writer has an idea of what they want to do they will submit a summary of their story. Artists will then be able to claim the fic they want based on a blind summary (so make them good, writers!). From that point the writers will be given a deadline to finish their larger work and then the artists will be able to make their accompanying piece.

*SO WHAT ARE THE RULES?*

*FOR AUTHORS*

~stories must be a min of 5,000 words in length. The max is 50,000 words. ~content will not be restricted. You may write gen, het, slash, or any combination thereof; AU’S and crossovers are welcome; any rating (not too explicit), pairing, tense, pov, voice are also allowed. Authors this is your time to shine, so enjoy and write something you’ve always wanted to (within reason)!

~we will contact you if there is a problem, and advise you along the way  ~a summary of your fic is due February 29th. You will need to have enough of a solid idea to state your rating, possible length, as well as any possible triggers or pairings. Please refrain from wildly changing your summary or the idea of your fic mid-way. ~you may use a WIP so long as it has never been accessible outside of this challenge. No submitting a chapter of a work you’ve already posted somewhere, now. Stories must be complete, new, and proofread. ~you may write in collaboration if you would like to do so! ~you will be matched with an artist based (only) on the summary of your completed story. All summaries will be posted blind sometime after Feb 29th.

*FOR ARTISTS*

~after summaries are posted, all fic claims will be due by March 9th. These are on a first come, first serve basis. Any extra artists or fics will be matched by the hxhbb mods. ~you will be given a completed version of the story you chose by May 15th ~your minimum requirement per fic is one illustration. One is required but if you feel inspired you are welcome to create more than one. ~you choose which part of the fic you illustrate. Which characters, which scenes, which chapters or even an image the sums up the spirit of the whole piece. The decision is up to you. ~illustrate is a very general term. Art can be mixed media, digital, ink, animation, etc. Have fun with it.

~July art is due, August the event is over

*MISCELLANEOUS*

~wanna participate but not as an artist or author? Please consider signing up as a beta reader. Betas are much appreciated and a much needed resource for fic writers. As a beta you will be matched with an author based on their needs and your preferences.

~we accept pinch hitters! 

~due to tumblrs changes, please consider no nsfw pieces. If a fic/art is nsfw, we will not reblog them (and the exchange will be done privately)

~we have a hxhbb collection on A03 ~Need suggestions for a theme or are low on ideas? Here are some quick suggestions: new starts and new year resolutions/memories old and new/ friends and family/strangers into lovers or lovers into strangers / unexpected meetings/ simple pleasures/ role swaps/ new adventures ~feel free to check out prompt master lists as well!! If you have any questions feel free to message @shalnarkonice or @hxhhasmysoul or @subdee on tumblr. We would love to help

~WE HAVE HXHBB DISCORDS TOO!

●DEADLINES●

*Author/Artist sign ups open: IMMEDIATELY *Author sign ups close: FEBRUARY 15TH

*Artist sign ups close: END MARCH *Summary for authors due: FEBRUARY 29TH (again, you must have enough of a solid idea for your entire fic, along with rating and possible triggers) *Artist claims due: MARCH 9TH (claims will be first come first serve. If we have more artists then authors, more than one will be assigned per fic) *Author check in: MARCH 30TH (hxhbb mods will message all writers to make sure all those who signed up are still interested and that no extensions are needed. Now is the time to ask for Beta readers) *Fics are due: MAY 15TH (They must be completed so they can be sent to artists. Please send your fic, or a link of your fic to hxhbb.

Author: AvaCelt Word Count: 22,500 Ships: Hisoka/Senritsu/Kurapika; background Ging Freecs/Pariston Hill Rating: Teen Warnings: Mystery, Horror, Ballet and Gothic Fusion, Post-Dark Continent Arc, Exploration of Dark Continent Lore Summary: Four years after the sinking of the Black Whale, assorted personalities who survived the great tragedy attempt to make something of their lives. Hisoka finds himself enamored with the newest mystery in town, while a thousand miles away, Senritsu accepts the case of a missing dancer. Deep in the forests of Lukso Province is Kurapika, the former head of the Nostrade crime family. With the Kakin Empire in shambles, it's inevitable that the three personalities meet. Together, they realize that there's a lot more at stake than just a few ballet numbers and free tickets to the theater. Their world may have moved on from a sunken ship and hybrid ant people, but something else hasn't. It's a feeling that tells them that even though their world has forgotten, the Dark Continent has not – and that the monster that destroyed the ship may just be hunting down its survivors.
