It’s that time again! So please remember to use (or blacklist!) “#RvB Angst War” for the next week for all involved content!
For those new, what is an angst war?
It’s a time for fandom fic authors and artists to open themselves up to prompts of the most soul crushing kind and attempt to deliver on it within one week’s time (in this case, next Friday – 22 April – at midnight EST) before all readers submit to me their Top 2 choices for winners.
How does one join this fest of hurt? Well there’s some simple rules:
The base rules: reblog this and your followers as well as other participants, submit prompts to your ask. Then you fill those that you want.
Whoever has the best story by Friday wins. What do you win? Bragging rights.
To keep track of the War, you can also check out this blog in particular, as we will be reblogging all submissions with the tag “#RvB Angst War” as well as keeping a master list.
Here are some additional rules:
1. When reblogging, make sure to add what kind of prompts you won’t take (such as shipping prompts or ones that contain some triggers)
2. You can send as many prompts to as many participants as you want, even if you are not participating. And if you are participating you can fill as many or as few prompts as you want. And there are no “penalties” for getting sidetracked (this is all about dishing out inspiration! Even if it’s not 100% what’s expected, you were at least inspired and that’s commendable)
3. I’ll reblog all entries I find, and tag them “RvB Angst War”. So tumblr savior that if you want. All participants, tag your fics with that as well so I can find them if I don’t follow you. All triggers will be marked as well. Please do the same when reblogging entries yourself, regardless if you are participating or not. The list of triggers you should tag is in our Rules/FAQ.
4. Next Friday (22nd), the contest is over. At that point, we will be posting a link to a polling/survey site where you will be able to pick your choices for winners. Honor code most likely will be in effect so please don’t vote for yourself! Everyone (participant or not) is welcome to vote; just make sure you read everything you can (if there’s something in the fic that triggers you, we’ll understand if you skip it though).
5. You do not need to be a participant in order to vote.
6. Have fun!
Yay angst!
Yes to:
Freelancers, my girl South, anything Wash-related, playing with the sci-fi stuff, world-building, gen, m/m, threesomes and moresomes, AU,
relationship angst, explicit sex
I’ll try: m/f, f/f, pretty much anything, you won’t weird me out, this is a judgment-free zone
No to: Tuckington, the inside of Sarge’s head (I love him but he’s so confusing)
I’m fine with non-con, but challenge rules say no. I could take a shot at it outside the fic war, though.
