~More Info~
This section is additional information and elaboration on the prompts; you don't really need to read anything below to participate fully, but to those who may be confused, need an explanation on some prompts, or simply want to know how to better participate, this is where you'll find it!
You don't have to follow the prompt list. You all get unlimited excuses to skip a prompt if you don't like it, or if you just want to use your own prompt!
Some days are dedicated specifically to AUs, but you can incorporate as many AUs into your content as you wish!
Aromantic Spectrum Awareness Week takes place during this prompt challenge! If you'd like to focus specifically on ASAW, (here's a link with more information about it). The days for ASAW are February 20th - February 26th.
Day 14's prompt, "No romo." is a joke based on the phrase "No homo.", playing on the word "romantic".
The AU Days are on Fridays! Again, if you want to skip the prompts on those days or use a different prompt entirely, you are absolutely allowed to. If you want to use both AUs given on those days, you absolutely can! If you need further prompting on the AUs we've chosen, just keep reading!
Day 28 is your free day! If you were diligent about fulfilling all the prompts, this one's your prompt-blog assigned excuse to let loose. We've suggested picking a quote, your favorite trope, your favorite song (or maybe the song that speaks to your favorite QPR), or an AU you just really like! Of course, you can also use your own ideas if you want!
Our (ask box) is open if you have any further questions about this challenge! We may or may not turn anonymous asks off if people can't behave; if we do, we'll answer your ask privately if you request it!
~AU Elaboration~
We wanted these AUs to be as broad as possible to give you guys some choices, so here you go!
Day 4: Coffee Shop AU/Adventure AU
a.) Can't go wrong with a feel-good encounter at the local coffee shop! Or maybe it's not local? Who knows! Maybe it's not even a coffee shop. Maybe its a flower shop, or a tattoo parlor, or a different kind of shop entirely!
b.) Adventure is out there! Sailing the high seas and foraging through lands or waters unknown on a grand quest, running into the local superhero or vigilante or supervillain and accidentally getting swept up in an entirely new world, the possibilities are endless! Or maybe every day is an adventure with this QPR?
Day 11: Fantasy AU/Modern AU
a.) Medieval times await! Or maybe your favored taste of fantasy is the supernatural! Angels and demons, knights and dragons and royals, mermaids and fairies, or maybe the QPR are rival wizards who just have to one-up each other. Maybe the decrepit house down the street is rumored to be haunted. Escape from reality!
b.) What's their slice of life look like? Are they in school together? Is one of them is a celebrity of some kind? How does the QPR fare in a modernized setting?
Day 18: Hanahaki AU/Enemies to QPPs
a.) The disease born of unrequited love isn't just limited to romantic love! How does the QPR deal with blooms born of unrequited queerplatonic love?
b.) There's no greater journey than the one taken by two enemies who have learned to trust and love each other. How has their initial relationship changed from those who hate each other to those who trust each other?
Day 25: Soulmate AU/Fake Dating AU
a.) Ending with the classics! Any soulmate AU will do! How does the QPR fare in this predominantly romantic AU? Maybe platonic soulmates are barely heard of, or maybe the QPR fall right in with each other as they were meant to be!
b.) Fake dating, but are they faking a romantic relationship to cover for their queerplatonic love, or are they faking their QPR and eventually fall in queerplatonic love with each other? Who are they hiding it from? What'll happen if they're found out?

Definition 1: Lacking seriousness or responsibility; frivolous. Definition 2: absurd, ridiculous, or nonsensical. What about them is silly? Or are they only silly together? Maybe it's lighthearted silliness, or maybe it's doubtful, feeling silly.
Is there gonna be an AO3 collection for QPR February works? Maybe not for this year since it's already pasted but like if you host the challenge for 2023 will there be one for that year?
Apologies for the late answer; Comedy and I have been preoccupied.
I will admit that neither of us are opposed to the idea, but the fact remains that neither of us know exactly how to run or maintain a collection of works on AO3. If there is interest in a QPR month collection on AO3, we will look into the idea and give our best attempt to figure it out.
A good relationship requires communication, but it also requires listening. Whether this is having a serious kind of talk with each other about their relationship, or trying to get away with eating cereal at 3am and 'no seriously I can explain', it's all down to listening to each other, and/or out for each other.

What does home mean to the qpps? Is it something they've always dreamed of finding together, or maybe something one of them just doesn't know how to find? Are they each other's homes? Do they go out in search of a home together, or find one in each other on accident?
Have they ever held hands? Is holding hands part of their love language, or is it not something they do at all? Maybe there's something one of them notices about the other(s)' hands? Or instead of physically noticing, maybe metaphorical hands, generosity, is appreciated?
Have they been hurt before? Is it a deep kind of hurt, or a hurt that's in the moment and only just mildly annoying? Is only one of them hurting, or is it the qpr itself? How do they deal with it?
