******************

NOTE: PROMPTING HAS NOW CLOSED, BUT FICS AND FANWORKS MAY STILL BE SUBMITTED THROUGH AUGUST 31ST. THANKS!


Welcome!!!! The time is now upon us. This will kick off a month's worth of prompting and fanworking and all the good things. Not sure what to do? Click below for our handy-dandy Promptathon Guide!

RULES ON POSTING SUBMISSIONS
(please read before you post! <3)



The Rules.  Just follow these three easy steps!

1. Leave a Prompt.

Prompts can be anything--simple or elaborate, words or pictures, songs or poems, lyrics or phrases. Anything that, to you, inspires a C/N fanwork. Use your imagination. Go crazy. All I ask is that you keep it tasteful and warn for anything explicit or triggery. Also, try to be as specific as you can with your prompts--this is often very helpful to those creating the fanwork.

And leave as many prompts as you want. I’m serious. Keep coming back, y’all. We want all the prompts we can possibly get Also, be sure to leave each prompt as a separate comment.


2. Wait a week.
Tailgate and chitchat and keep leaving prompts. And mull over the epic fanworks you are creating.

3. Submit C/N fanwork like there is no tomorrow.
All submissions should either be posted here or linked to this post via a comment. The nitty gritty details of posting your stuff can be found HERE. Please read before you post


Timeframe:
Prompts will be accepted starting today, Friday, July 13th (!!!) and will remain open until Friday, August 10th.  Submissions may be submitted beginning on Friday, July 20th and may continue to be submitted until August 10th.


What we hope to accomplish with all this promptathon-iness:

  • A chance to get in the game. Been wanting to jump into the C/N fanwork scene but not sure where to start? Now’s the time. There’s no length requirement on the works submitted, you can focus on drabbles and vidlets and short and sweet projects (or do longer more epic stuff if that strikes your fancy as well).  It’s really entirely up to you. We’re just hoping to provide a fun, no-pressure environment.
  • Meet new and awesome people. Because srsly, I love everyone in this bar. It's a good damn bar. Don't be afraid to say hello
  • Ship like you’ve never shipped before.
  • Tailgate when appropriate. My motto is, if something ain’t a cocktail party, you just aren’t trying hard enough. In that spirit, [livejournal.com profile] aurora_0811and I are hosting the tailgate section (which I think at this point just includes random chatter and ridiculousness, cheerleading and tomfoolery, because I doubt our comm’s talkative nature will be suppressed even during the prompting/waiting period.) So pull up a helicarrier-shaped lawnchair, crack open a cold one and settle in for the festivities. And leave prompts.

And most of all, have fun. :)

Aww, you're new? *gives you 'welcome to the crazy part of the internets' cookies* Seriously, can't tell from you're writing :D You picked a fandom that's pretty new too, so you're in at the start - that's always less intimidating - and you definitely picked a friendly fandom to hang your first hat in. Everyone here is lovely. Stalk them all! Comment all over the show! And have lots of fun :D

I LOVE long comment conversations. I love watching ideas and stories getting born in them, like watching clouds form. Thing of beauty. I'm always nervous about comment-rambling to people I don't know yet *grins* but no one has ever said 'sheesh, you couldn't have used fewer words?' so I'm getting better at it. Rambling Commenters Unite!

I'm not actually on tumblr either - there are too many pretty pictures, too likely to get addicted *grins* - but I dive in every so often. memos from Fury is what it says in the title and cracks me up often. You can follow on twitter to see when it updates, which is often. Other than that, check the recs tags for this comm. A few of us rec things from tumblr. There's a Clint/Natasha tumblr comm thingy and some folks that are on [livejournal.com profile] be_compromised have tumblrs. And I like fuckyeahblackwidow for feminism and Black Widow wonderfulness. Also on the SHIELD and paperwork front, if you don't mind Clint/Coulson with Clint and Natasha being fantastic friends try SHEILD Has Paperwork For Everything which works as a stand alone (and then check out everything by scifigrl47 because their a brilliant writer, full of hilarity and feels.)

Um, yeah, I have a reccing problem as well as a comment problem *grins*.

LOL that is EXACTLY how our Olympic journey has gone :D :D :D Apart from the Torch relay bit where a bunch of us where sat watching the news going 'but with all the crazy rain we have right now, how the hell is this thing staying lit?!'

LIIIiiiiiinks!! **grabby hands** thankyou! Those memos are hysterical... And, because too much commenting is never enough:

Thanks for the crazy internet cookies! My lj fandom adventures just predate Avengers. It's all Bee's fault, of course ;) I finally got around to watching BSG in January, and fell hook, line and sinker for pilots. And when it finished I was driven to the interwebs in search of solace - and I found Bee! ...who then pulled me kicking and screaming (except there was no kicking or screaming) over to Avengers/Assassins. I am incredibly grateful to have such a friendly initiation fandom! Can't help but feel I have found my people. ;) You're very kind re: teh writing. Actually, I was never going to write anything. But then I was never going to sign up for lj, comment on fanfic, or indeed even read fanfic in the first place. Slippery slope is slippery... and also a bloody fun ride! :D

(Oh and re: the flame? If I can quote Celine Dion from the Atlanta '96 opener: 'it is the power of the dream that brings [the flame] here [still alight].' #olympicsnerd #pointlesshastagging)
