This is a low-pressure multifandom semi flash exchange with a Grief/Mourning theme. That does not mean this is a flash specifically about characters dying (but of course, characters dying is on the menu!). Mourning can be the loss of: a loved one, a pet, an object, a character's sense of self, of time, of their past, and more. Grief isn't exclusively or necessarily expressed as sadness, it can be anger, numbness, risk taking, survivors living life to its fullest, etc.

Given the exchange theme, and fandom matching, we're relying on good faith from everyone. As a recipient, please make your requests in a spirit of openness, bearing in mind that for this exchange you are opting into someone else's interpretation of grief/mourning. As a creator, the aim is to create something you think your recipient might enjoy. Additional details are optional. Respect DNWs and do not include any items from the opt-in list unless they are opted into. Have fun. Take risks. Be gracious. (thanks to lucymonster for letting us crib kinkluckydip verbiage)

FAQs

I'm not guaranteed a gift? What does that mean?
Mods will work hard to find Pinch Hitters, but will not hold the collection opening for lingering PHs or deadline defaults. If you only request art, there is a bigger chance you won't get a gift.

Can I nominate crossovers?
Yes. Nominate under Crossover Fandom. Please alpha order by character last name, e.g. Character A (Fandom)/Character B (Fandom)

Can I nominate moresomes?
Yes.

What about incest ships?
Absolutely.

Do I need to disambiguate my nominations?
Please disambiguate crossover nominations.

Should treats meet the minimum requirements?
No. Treats can be any length, sketches are fine.
