Cheers to our youth and cheers to the fourth year of 17hols! We are so happy to be back after breaking for a year. Over 4 weeks, we have filled 76 prompts, remixed 13 fills, and added another 46 works to the ao3 collection (to a grand total of 250!). In 2022, the best boy was Wonwoo, in 2023 it was Jeonghan, and for 2025…. (drumroll) our MIA troublemaking angel Yoon Jeonghan on 32 fills. Our dear myopic gamer Jeon Wonwoo just got beaten out on the last day of 17hols, having featured in a total of 31 works. Coming in third we have our beloved potato puppy Kim Mingyu with 24 works. (Admin Note: these were also our top 3 for 2023, I guess we don’t change!)
We must also send through special congratulations to:
kkulecru, for the most remixes (6 - a historical record!); and
hwarium, who wrote our longest fill kingmaker tapping out at 15k words.
(A mod will reach out to you shortly about prizes)
Thank you for joining us at the beginning of 2025. Have a good year and see you in the fandom!
From the mods
from hyojungss:
grateful to see that after a year off we got to meet many new faces and returning veterans as well. the community is why we do it. thank you to hwa and pb as well for their incredible passion for this fest - they are the best team you could ask for!! i'm just along for the ride hehe
from deadwine:
thank you to the community that jumped back into this pot of madness despite our break last year and thank you to hwa and risa, my favourite non-profit startup coworkers, for being the unofficial reason i keep coming back to this. <3
from hwarium:
Every year I thank pb and risa for their support but this year especially because 17hols would not have gone ahead without the two of them both throwing their gloves into this ring!! Thank you also to the community who have spent time and heart feeding the creative juices of 17hols, you are the reason I want to keep doing this!
to the community
We only ever had closing words from the mods so it’s about time we got closing comments from the community as well! Drop a comment and let us know:
the fills and remixes that you enjoyed;
any prompts that caught your eye that you haven’t manifested yet; and/or
if there’s any WIPs lingering out of 17hols; and/or
My creativity sure got a kick in the ass!! I’ve also added a lot more books and music to my radar - I got exposed to so many new poets as well!
Re fills and remixes (off the top of my head) - why do I feel like every single joshua fill possessed some kind of contagious demonic spirit (head in hands), it makes me feel like I’ve been a catholic boy writing wonwoo/jeonghan/minghao when I could have been writing joshua and wrecking havoc (the fill with priest seokmin, the one where josh is cruel to mingyu, the jihan where he leaves svt, the fe3h jihancheol fill from today!!) - miuyi rainiest wonhui [vesuvius] - all the jeongcheol arcane fills (ahhHHH) - the time jumping verhao!! - I have to link the r63 jeongcheol where jeonghan goes to her ex’s seungcheol’s wedding!
- re wips I have a draft sci-fi soonhan and you best believe I will remix the fe3h jihancheol!
- will be trying to stay off twitter this year! You can find me on bsky @ hwarium
struggling to finish my last wip for this which is why I haven't caught up on the last few fills but the ones I'm thinking about, still: -werewolf wonu and human seokmin -all the soobin entries. love to see him in these parts. -the scifi soonhao...my goodness, her. -the return of 17hols patron saint im nayoung -the ghost meanie fic -all the fanart! pink vernon!
lots of potential remixes still on my mind but we'll see if i get to doing them.
btw, if you wanna edge in a fill into the official masterlist you have until i finish the wip i'm working on so like....2 days, maybe?
most fills 😳 thank you mods for always running such a fun fest that gets the creative cogs turning (also for giving me a place to home things i didn't finish throughout the year hehe) and my friends that i dragged into 17hols with me :)
fills i'm still thinking about: arcane jeongcheol, of course wonhao translation ghost minwon kingmaker (vibrates at the speed of light) nj's post-disbandment exes seokhao tembusu's fills! so fucking good!
i'm still ruminating over lilli's fob prompt (of course), me shooting myself in the foot with mitski/challengers/awyite and worship, and twig's Rainer Marie Rilke prompt
i am no longer on twt but i can be found at infrequency and on bsky
