Have felt like shit all day, what bits of it I've been concision for. But of course I'm still up way too fucking late, considering, because brains are extremely stupid and I got sucked into fic. At least I managed to pull myself away in the end? It's not done, so yeah. That took some willpower, of which I have not much.
Anyway, passing the fuck back out now, yes.
Vector Hyllus / Some Kind Of Killik Hivemind Kinky Bug Times
Nominator, I'm going to be honest and say I nearly passed it through, because it did make me laugh. Ultimately though, we decided that it's a little too unclear what a fic would need to include to be considered filling the tag.
Unless we hear otherwise from you, we will change and approve it as Vector Hyllus/One or More Member(s) of a Killik Hivemind (Legends). (Then you can add your request for kinky bug times in your sign up details). If you have a different idea of a more specific nomination that captures your request, we welcome it - it mostly just needs to be clear how many people (bugs) are in the relationship.
See you all soon for signups!
Are ya writin', friends?
If you have written today--Open the first WIP you find and write one (1) word.
If you have not written today--Open the first WIP you find and write one (1) word.
It doesn't have to stay in the final version. It doesn't need to make sense. Just add one word.
I believe in you!

If you're interested in helping out and there are still slots available the post remains open until the last week of the month and we generally run our week Sunday to Saturday, I'm happy to chat via PM on DW for anyone who might need it.
If you have ever completed a fic through this challenge we have a collection on AO3 and on SquidgeWorld both collections are open and unmoderated. Should there be an issue with adding a work, let me know and I'll see if there's a fix for it.

Week 4: 26th to 1st

Ugh, today I had to write a cover letter and it sucked. I usually don't bother because I am deeply uncomfortable with the entire process of attempting to sell yourself, but this particular job came via Sibling and required a bit more effort. Ugh. Just. Ugh. SO tiring.
Helped out in the garden by breaking trimmed branches into small pieces so more would fit in the bin, afterwards. That was nice. Didn't need any brain, which was good as I was all out.
What else. Um. Lots of reading this evening, and some minecraft. That's about all. Now I nap!
We are well on our way through nominations cleanups, and we've discovered some tags that could use clarification. Please read the following and respond if you see your tag (Anon is on for comments). You are also welcome to respond if it is not your tag, but you think you have input that may help the mods in figuring it out - please clarify that you are not the nominator in that case.
Clarifications
Ordo and Fi
To the mods’ knowledge, there are two characters named Fi, and ‘Ordo’ could refer to different people or even a planet. We suspect there's a decent fandom consensus for these names, and will approve as-is unless Legends fans or the nominator indicate a clarification that would be helpful.
- Fi/Ordo (Legends)
- Fi/Ordo/Maze (Legends)
- Fi/Sev (Legends)
- Fi/Sev/Scorch (Legends)
- Ordo/Maze/Arligan Zey (Legends)
- Ordo/Maze (Legends)
Vague Tags - Canon vs Original
There are a number of nominations that could hypothetically be filled by either a canonical character or an original one. If we don't hear back from you, we will approve as-is. If it's approved them as-is, then your creator can either choose an appropriate character from canon or create an original one that otherwise fulfills the tag. Please comment below if you would like these tags changed to be clear (ex: Any Canonical Female Jedi or Original Female Jedi)
- Bo-Katan Kryze (Disney)/Any Female Jedi (TCW)
- Leia Organa (OT)/Any Female Jedi (TCW)
- Original Female Republic Navy Member/Any Female Jedi (TCW)
- Arla Fett/Any Female Jedi (Any)
- Jedi Master of Choice/Jedi Padawan of Choice (Any)
- Mand'alor of Choice/Mandalorian of Choice (Any)
- Sith Lord of Choice/Sith Apprentice of Choice (Any)
- Any Male New Republic Senator (Any)/Luke Skywalker (Mando)
- Original Female Republic Navy Member/Any Female Jedi (TCW)
- Bil Valen| Sixth Brother/Unidentified Black Sun Agent (Any) (Note - for this one we would suggest Bil Valen| Sixth Brother (Any)/ Canonical Unidentified Black Sun Agent (Ahsoka) if you want the specific Black Sun Agent that appears in the Ahsoka show)
- Rakatan Predor of Choice/Force Hound(s) of Choice
Selfcest
We have rejected the following self-cest pairings, due to the fact that they could hypothetically be fulfilled by a fic about masturbation, and this is outside of the spirit of the exchange. Note - if you want to replace this tag by something that clearly can not be fulfilled by a solo-fun-times fic (ex: Hunter/Time Travelling Older Hunter (TBB)) , please comment your preferred tags below.
- Hunter/Hunter
- Crosshair/Crosshair
Matt the Radar Technician is not Star Wars
Nominator, we get it, but Matt the Radar technician is not, technically, a star wars character. This nomination will appear rejected in your noms, but it can be found in Crossovers (Non-Star Wars) as "Matt the Radar Technician(SNL)/Rick the Door Technician (Any)". P.S. - your nom made me laugh, thank you.
General Information
You may also see some rejections coming in. These generally happen for one of two reasons - the nomination was in the wrong fandom (ex: including Disney Canon characters in Legends fandom nominations) or the nomination is no longer rare (Congrats and I'm Sorry). If you have any questions about rejections/nominations in general, feel free to reach out to the mods on discord, via email, or comment below, anon is on.
What's next?
We've reviewed somewhere around 400-500 tags today, but there's still some more to go! We may need to issue a further clarifications post, but once the tags are all reviewed and the tagset is cleaned up, sign ups will open!
The writing, friends. Was it productive?
Of course it was! (genuine)
3 (60.0%)
...Of course it was! (lie)
1 (20.0%)
Let's not get lost in the weeds of "productivity" here
1 (20.0%)
It was a break and/or life day and that's fine!
1 (20.0%)
Umami...the fifth answer.
1 (20.0%)
And sometimes, even when you have the energy for writing and no other tasks that need to get done instead, you still just don't want to write. And that's OK, too. Our brains need rest the same as our bodies. Besides, when you come back to your writing, you'll be that much fresher and eager to do it.

I found out today someone I've seen around in fannish circles - not knew, or ever spoke to, but seen around semi-regularly for idk at least 15 years - died earlier this year. :( And so, I am sad. It's not really grief, I didn't really know them, but still. They were part of the community and now they're gone and it sucks. :(
There are many reasons why getting older is hard, and this is very much one of them. Particularly for someone like me, who's mostly had older friends, but just in general, too. The longer you're around the more people you know die, that's just... how it works. Alas. :(
Anyway I don't really have a point or anything. I'm just sad.
Nominations are Closed, Next Steps, and an FAQ
Sep. 21st, 2025 09:40 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
Nominations are now closed, however, don't panic if your noms haven't been approved! We've still got a lot of tagset to review, and probably at least one clarifications post to put up. Watch this space!
Next Steps
The mods need to finish reviewing and finalizing the tagset. As we do that, we will post any lingering clarification questions, likely tomorrow.
FAQ
Where did my noms go/why were my noms rejected?
Your noms may have been rejected if you nominated a group of characters, if you nominated a pairing that was not rare, or if you nominated in the wrong fandom. If you are disappointed an otherwise eligible ship did not make it in, please see the next question!
Oh no! I forgot a very important tag! What do I do?
Comment here and we'll try to add it in for you, if it's not too late in the sign-up process. We do request you comment with a specific format, which is:
Fandom,Relationship
[ex: Star Wars Crossovers,Ahsoka Tano (Rebels)/Leia Organa (Any)]
If you have more than one relationship in the same fandom, you can add it after the first one, separated by a comma:
Fandom,Relationship,Relationship
[ex: Star Wars Crossovers,Ahsoka Tano (Rebels)/Leia Organa (Any),The Armorer (Mando)/Mon Mothma (Any)]
What if there's something wrong with a tag in the tagset?
If you catch something, please comment here, or go to our Discord server and drop a comment in the #tagset-cleanup channel.
I'm so excited for signups, when do they open?
The schedule has them opening on Wednesday, 11:59 EST. We're going to work to get the tagset cleaned up, and if we're able to do that ahead of schedule, we may even open ahead of schedule! Be on the lookout for information here.
Any other questions, feel free to drop them in the comments below. Anon is on and comments are screened. See you soon for signups!
How has your writing day gone?
It went well!
3 (75.0%)
It went not so well.
0 (0.0%)
Boy, it sure went!
1 (25.0%)
A far more complex and nuanced answer...
0 (0.0%)
Today was a partial solar eclipse (not visible in my part of the world, but holy cats, was it felt!) and the astro-weather has been, uh... well, it's been! And when you're in these kinds of times where brains might be buzzing less with ideas and more with static, it's important to give yourself grace if you're not "as productive" as you want to be, however that looks to you.
So make sure you take time to rest! If you've written anything at all today, congrats! Celebrate it and take some time to decompress. If writing hasn't happened at all today, that's fine! Read over a piece of your writing you're proud of (whether finished or a WIP) and do something fun as a reward for being kind to yourself.
FFA DW Post #2358- Hit a verb in 15 minutes, Cicero, or I'm allowed to overthrow the Roman Republic.

That explains a lot about 410 CE, tbh.
Exactly. Goths sacking Rome going "we have been waiting for a verb for 450 years, what do you mean he's fucking dead???"
