hi admin ;> im sorry if this is a silly question but have u posted a new timeline for the posting of fics?

the break has always been incorporated into the schedule! but i might have to rearrange some stuff for one and more reasons @@

soogyuists · 11mo

can i just say all the graphics are super adorable? seriously, so pretty ;;

hi admin!!! im wondering, have You read the fics already?

may i assert my right to remain silent ^^;; the only thing i can say is that i love soogyuists and i can't wait until these fics are finally available for everyone to read because omg

soogyuists · 11mo

Aaaa I'm so excited for all of the fics and my gift. I can't wait I'm vibrating with energy!

hello! sorry for the dumb question but are we supposed to send our fic via email on the 4th and then post it on the 9th? also, if so, would it be possible to get an extra day or two to finish editing the fic? thank you

you can follow the guideline i linked on the email! tldr you have to submit it into the collection by the 4th of feb, but it will stay hidden and nobody will be able to access the story except for you and the mod. the mod will be the one who reveals it to the public on 9 (or the specified time later on). if you need an extension, please reply to the email or dm me!

Hi! I was just wondering out of curiosity what happens with the prompts that have been claimed after the valentines matching? Will they be posted separately from the event whenever the author finishes the fic or will they be like a second valentine? 🤔

They shall be posted on the same day, so for the Valentines who got their leftover prompts claimed, they will get more than one gift c:

Hi! Maybe it's a bit silly to ask, but when we submit our fics when the deadline comes, will we use the gift feature on ao3, or will we post without it?

It's not silly at all~ on the submission date, you will have to post the fic into a (private, undisclosed) collection and gift your fic to your Valentine (by this time, everyone will have their Valentine's ao3 username already). I'll make a mini tutorial near the date for people who are not familiar with this feature ^^

hello! i'm sorry if this is a dumb question, but if we're aiming to make a long-chaptered fic, does it have to be completely finished by the time of release?

Hii, if you're making the fic into a chaptered fic, you'll have to finish at least one chapter finished on the submission day, and then you can continue writing even after the event ended (with the intention of finishing it). It'd be even better if you already have several chapters already ^^

If someone gives up on writing and pulls out, will they still get a gift?

yes, because they already became someone else's valentine in the beginning and their fic is already being written by that person. the person who may not get a gift is probably the valentine who got their prompt dropped by the initial claimer, but don't be too stressed about this if you got a valid reason to drop out ^^ as long as it's communicated to us, things can be arranged and everyone will still get a gift, hopefully.

hi! would an outline be sufficient for the first check in?

Sure, any progress is a progress! You can just state that you've finished the outline (or tbh you can just make the wip doc and write "The" (1 word), that counts too)

soogyuists · 1y

Hello! I was wondering what other option is there to let you know we're working on the fic besides sending our progress? Asking because I'm pretty insecure about my wips when they're still in the early stages ^^"

Just stating the current word count is okay too, the gdocs link will be optional since I just need a confirmation that you're still working on it / if you've made progress (by check-in 2 and 3), it's ok even if you didn't give any proof, I'll just take your word for it ^^

Lychee · 1y

we can send our progress through twitter dms right?

soogyuists · 1y

Hi! I got the prompt and the valentine's notes okay, but I was wondering if we're also gonna get the identity of out valentines or i remember wrong /gen Thank you!

it will be disclosed to everyone who wanted to know after the first check in, but if you, as the valentine, wanted your identity to be kept confidential until the end for whatever reason, you can personally tell us as well

soogyuists · 1y

Will I only receive my claimed prompt through email or would I get it through twitter too?

I will only send the details through emails since it's pretty long, unless you explicitly stated in the beginning that you prefer to be contacted through twitter only.

soogyuists · 1y

the claiming of prompts will be tonight, right?
