Aha! So you've clicked read more. Thank you! I wish you awesome luck for the next 48 hours of your life.

So, a little while back I mused over the idea of a timbern fandom event, and I thought about it a lot since then, and figured.. eh, why not, what's the worst that can happen - even if nobody actually joins, I figured I'd make the event and participate on my own anyway! No problem!

That being the case, I've decided to host a bingo-style event, and for it to encompass the full month of September! This is for a couple of reasons:

These days, finding time to make fun things is getting more and more difficult on top of work and studies and general life. I want this to feel free-form and laid back - if you have the full month to play with the event, you can join in around your own schedule and play as you like!

I just feel like it's fun to play bingo. I guess I'm 84.

With a style like month-long-bingo, it feels naturally more fluid. For example, you can pick and choose whichever prompts you like and mix them into singular works or lay back and do small/quick works prompt-by-prompt! You don't have to do them all, or you could sweep the whole board, as you like! (You don't have to work toward getting a "bingo" at all of course, it's just for fun. The number one most important thing is having fun.) There's no specific day or order for any specific prompt, just your personal drive! I like that kind of concept. Be free!

Now. This post is kind of doing 2 things; interest checking, and also asking for your help!

Since the interest check is sort of nebulous and will only be answered after the post is out, we'll head straight into asking for help.

I haven't finished coming up with prompts, clearly (the light blue spaces have yet to be filled!) because as it turns out, coming up with ideas is hard, and 24 whole ideas is a total headache (I feel like you can see I scraped the barrel with some of these prompts lmao.)

So, if you are interested, please feel free to suggest prompts, or suggest better wording for prompts that might not make sense at a glance (you can do this in the replies of this post!). If there are any issues or questions about the broader aspect of this event, feel free to drop me an ask, too.

I'll also say pre-emptively that all fanwork is cool fanwork. Art, fic, playlist ideas, cosplay (?), webweaves, you know, whatever you'd like to do, please go ahead, let creativity flow, that's what art events are all about! Whatever you post to another site (for example if you make a playlist or a fic and host it outside of tumblr), post a link or a preview over here so I can sort it into the gallery and make the timbern goodness accessible to all!

On the same note, fluff, angst, nsfw, whump, all is totally welcome in this event, just make sure you tag it appropriately! This event is just as much about timbernation as it is about timbern themselves! No fan is shut out from enjoying it in their own way! Just make sure the work focuses on the guys in question, of course.

Last notes;

There aren't any prizes, but maybe there could be? For now, no prizes though. Just fun and fandom and playing together.

The prompts are half-vague half-obvious because everyone likes different types of prompts (and if you want to mix the prompts together, it'll make it easier if some are worldbuilding and some are vibebuilding).

And if I seem informal it's because it's a fan event, it's not a job application. We're parallel playing and thinking about timbern! Let's have a good time doing it!

Again, if anyone has any ideas, questions, or concerns, hit me up in the ask box. And DC, don't let anything bad happen to them during Bad Seeds because it will be so embarrassing for me to host this event if you do (I will still host this event even if they do anything crazy, I promise).
