🎶

This event is an opportunity for us all to share some music with each other!

🎶 Event Rules 🎶

Choose a prompt, find a song that makes you think of or relates to the prompt in some way, and post alongside some other bit of creative work!

‼️ Please don't just post the prompt and song alone! Try to explain yourself, or add some meta, or a gif, or some fan art, or a fic, or stills from the show, or a break down of the specific lyrics that move you. Doesn't have to be shit tonnes of work, just enough that we can understand your thinking and what the connection to the prompt is. I'm posting this at the start of June so you've got some time to gather your thoughts and prepare some songs and related work <3

Shipping is welcome. This is aimed at TOS but if you're vibing any of the other Treks I'm not gonna tell you off, go ahead and do your thing. Up to you how you link the song; spotify, youtube, embedded, just name it and let people find it themselves. All good ✨

Also, tag this blog when you post! I'll reblog everything to this blog

Please let me know if you're loving this event and I'll consider running a new bingo card sheet in a couple months

Reglog! Share with your friends! Follow this blog to let me know you're interested! ❤️

I hope people are looking forward to it! I am! I have an embarrassingly long Spotify playlist of shortlist songs for the bingo prompts lol, I don't think I'll be able to post them all. But maybe I will! Who knows! 🎶

🛸There's been a couple queries over the last week, so I thought I'd just put a few more details down

You are not expected to write a whole fic or do some great big art work for this. You're welcome to if you want! But the bingo design of the event gives you the freedom to do whatever kind of post suits you 🫶

The idea is you find a song that the prompt reminds you of and share it on Tumblr along with something else, such as art, fic, meta, gif sets, so on. Right now we're still working up the details of the event

We've got some prompt sent in! And a few more that I've come up with

I think, based on the response to this blog and how much I personally enjoyed @leonardmccoyevents ' bingo card that this event should be a bingo!

We'll run for all of July, but I'll keep reblogging things into August if people run late. That's no worry. If there's demand I'm happy to do a new bingo sheet every couple months, so let me know if you're absolutely loving it ❤️

So we need 24 nice little prompts, so far I've got a dozen or so so please feel free to send me ideas!!

I've got; warp, red alert, shoreleave, friendship, 5 year mission, sickbay, paperwork, red shirts, aliens, first contact, command, sacrifice

This blog is running a star trek tos event where we share songs and fanwork related to a prompt. I'll create a well worded guide some time when we're closer to time, for now it's mostly vibes. Feel free to read other posts on the blog (and give us a follow!)

I've got a pretty breezy day tomorrow, and am going off to bed rn, so while I'm asleep please feel free to send in any hopes, dreams, concerns, questions, and most important prompts that you'd like included!

I've got a pretty breezy day tomorrow, and am going off to bed rn, so while I'm asleep please feel free to send in any hopes, dreams, concerns, questions, and most important prompts that you'd like included!

Basically, there'd be a prompt of some kind and you're meant to share a song that it makes you think of, and some other bit of work. The other thing is just to avoid blank posts with a linked song, it's not meant to be a big demand, but also opens the door for people to get as creative as they might want to

The other thing is like;

Song and meta explaining your thoughts

Song and some fanart to illustrate the connection to the prompt

Song and a song fic! Or a normal fic, but let's bring back song fics lol

Song and a gifset or screen shots of the relevant scene

Song and some prose/poetry

Song and a collage/edit of canon stuff

Song and some other form of creative output that I can't think of

In terms of the prompts, I'm wondering how weird and specific to get. I'd keep it in line with canon, and shipping and stuff is fine as long as you draw a connection back to the prompt. But like, okay. I'm gonna give a column A and column B idea, let me know what you think is more fun

Column A

Red Alert

Sick Bay

First Contact

Shore Leave

Paperwork

Column B

The joke at the end of the episode where everyone laughs and loves each other

This episode has a baby in it and by god Spock looks overwhelmed

Miracle worker McCoy has cured yet another incomprehensible and bizarre injury/illness

The soft focus filter that they put exclusively on women and Kirk

Gentle reminder that everyone on this ship is a communist, and how that impacts them

Maybe I could do both, I've seen prompt lists with alternative fills. I think that could be fun. Two prompts a day for a week, can do all if you want or just pick three of them over the week. Whatever vibes

I'd have to check when there's no clash with other events, I think mckirk week is coming up and I don't wanna tread on that, so no indication of when this'd be just yet but I'd want to have the prompt list out for a fortnight first regardless

Also I'd probably make a sideblog for it to reblog everything in one place where it doesn't get buried by my regular posting

Give @wanderinginstarflight a follow

Thanks for the love, all. I hope it's fun!!!

First off though, what kind of event do people generally prefer?
