A Witcher Wheel of the Year will be a series of events all through the year 2025 - prompts for Imbolc and Ostara are now revealed!
There will be prompts based on every festival of the Wheel of the Year, and you are invited to create fics or art of whatever strikes your fancy for those. Prompts will be smutty and non-smutty, you can pick one or several. If you feel like creating something not based on the prompts, go ahead! We only ask that there is some connection to the festival, however you choose to interpret it.
All themes and genres are welcome, from G to E and from fluff to whump. This is a kink and darkfic friendly event, as long as you tag/warn accordingly.
No upper or lower word count limit for writers
All canons are welcome - games, TV shows, books
All ships are welcome, as are gen fics
Please be kind to each other - no bashing or kinkshaming ect.
On the date of each festival, there will be an event where you can share your work. Tag with #witcherwheeloftheyear so people can find it! Follow us on @witcherwheeloftheyear and @ us when you post so we can reblog!
Prompts will be revealed throughout the year, around three months ahead so you have time to create.

Rules
You will be submitting your rarepair fic(s), and commit to leaving a comment on someone else’s fic(s). The event will match people based on fic tags and your preferences/DNWs.
Comments: Comments need to be at least 100 words long. Anything you quote from the fic doesn’t count towards that. If you want only to comment and not submit a fic, you are welcome to sign up!
Fics: Submit at least one oneshot/chapter with a wordcount of no more than 10k, and no less than 500 words. You can submit up to three fics so there’s a better chance to match readers and fics.

If you have suddenly forgotten everything you like/don’t like to read, the Fisstech & Succubi Eskel Exchange has an excellent list to help you get started here
The rarepair must be the focus of your fic. We count everything as a rarepair with less than 1000 fics on AO3 at the time when you submit your story.
The pairing can be romantic or platonic/friendship.
This event welcomes darkfic, WIPs (the submitted chapter must be published on AO3), crossovers and OCs. As long as the fic is tagged correctly, you can submit whatever you want. The flip side of submit whatever you want is that we will not tolerate bashing of submitted fics.
If you end up paired with a fic that is in hindsight not your cup of tea for whatever reason, please contact the mods before commenting to be paired with another fic (there’s no need to tell us why). Don’t feel obliged to read material you’d rather not, and do not send the author negativity.
🎀🏹The Season of Love is upon us, help us celebrate! Whether it’s Platonic, Familial, or Romantic! It’s up to you! Here are the prompts for Witcher Bows and Arrows. For a Myster Date Prompt, you can DM the below twitter account or DM us here.🎀🏹

Lambert for @villainii​
“The young witcher I met at Kaer Morhen sure is quarrelsome and he has a biting tongue... I think at times he uses rudeness to express his fondness for someone.”
Relationship: Yennefer of Vengerberg / male Lover (of your choice)
Prompts: Hawthorn, fire and smoke, Temperature Play, Make a wish
Additional tags: Fire play, blindfold, Smut, Romance, Plot What Plot/Porn Without Plot, Oral Sex, Explicit Sexual Content, Dom Yennefer of Vengerberg, NSFW
Words: 3,469
Summary: Yennefer has a beautiful May Night with her lover.
Who the lover is? I had one specific Witcher character in mind when I wrote the fic, but you might fancy a different pairing. So, feel free to decide yourself, whoever works best for you, Yennefer/Geralt, Yennefer/Jaskier, Yennefer/Istredd, Yennefer/Cahir, Yennefer/You, ...
She sighs, as happy as a clam at high tide. What a beautiful evening! Unusually mild for May Eve in the north despite the cloudless, velvety sky speckled with stars and adorned with the waxing quarter moon. Two big bonfires are burning in the centre of the meadow, their red orange flames licking against the nightly firmament. Happily dancing tongues inviting to dance yourself. But no, not yet. She is far too full from the delicious feast and desires nothing in the world but to sit here at the edge of the pasture under the blooming hawthorn bushes, swathed in their sweet spring scent that reminds of vanilla and almond with just a splash of spice to it - and wrapped up tight in the strong arms of her lover. If she were a cat, she would be purring so loudly, the sound would carry from the hill all across the valley and echo through the entire northern continent. No, further, as far as Nilfgaard.
Has she ever been so deeply contented, Yennefer wonders for a moment. A very brief and fleeting moment, though, as, from behind, she can now feel a warm breath tickling her left ear. Then, gods, the tip of a tongue. A very skilled tongue that knows exactly where and how to touch her to suddenly make her want more than just sit and sigh. The tingling sensation aroused by the teasing touch spreads right from her ear to her gut, awaking a swarm of butterflies in her tummy, making her feel warm in all the right places and, at the same time, giving her goosebumps all over. Kindling the flames of desire. The tongue traces down the curve of her neck where her lover places a gentle kiss, hardly more than a breath, then it wanders up again. Now she can feel his teeth nibbling tantalisingly gently on her earlobe.
"Want to go to a more private place for a while?" he asks, his voice husky as he whispers the words into her ear. He does not wait for an answer but lifts her up as he stands, and she lets him do so more than willingly.
"Mmm," Yennefer agrees, and it almost does sound like a purr. She turns around in her lovers arms, facing him. Standing on tiptoe, she looks up and presses her lips to his. They kiss. Tenderly, teasingly at first. Then their lips part. Their saliva mingles as their tongues meet. They taste each other in a breathless, eager embrace. Finally, Yennefer breaks the kiss.
"And I know exactly where to go," she says enigmatically, taking his hand in hers. "Come."
