Seventeen Holidays
A Comment Ficathon

17hols is a prompt fest that will run for 9 weeks from the 28 December 2020 to 28 February 2021. .

People post comments with a prompt, and anyone can fill these prompts. Fics, fanart, edits, songs, all types of mediums are welcome. The aim of this fest is to get Carats excited about creating content so it is designed to be low on stress and high on inspiration.

But there is a twist!


There are four rounds of 2 weeks. Each round will have a theme that the prompts must follow. That is:
  1. Quotes
    Dig up Siken, Vuong, Carson, dust off your Taylor Swifts and MCR, pick up your books and ask me “to be or not to be” or “name one hero who was happy”. Lyrics, poems, movies, one-liners, and if we must, “Low quality? LOW QUALITY? MY ENGLISH IS BEST QUALITY.”

  2. AUs
    Anime, serials, books, genres. Will Seungkwan play volleyball? Will GyuHan be tennis doubles partners or the next Buzzfeed Unsolved? Seokmin in Narnia, Jun in Inception, Minghao as the next Raven Cycle dreamer. There are as many alternate universes as you can imagine.

  3. Screencaps
    The prompt must be a screenshot with any Seventeen member. GyuHao ballroom dancing, Jun drifting down to meet Wonwoo. But why stick to music videos? Go with GoSe: Dino looking like a CEO, Jeonghan with a gun, Seungkwan flykicking Soonyoung into the ground. Interviews, vlives, fancams. Hit the Road for maximum angst, 17TV for maximum chaos.

  4. Who, Where, When:
    Joshua in the Inkigayo bathroom at 7pm? JeongCheol in the van after the Jakarta concert? Vernon in Iceland at age 30? Or maybe even Jihoon during the Joseon Dynasty in the Emperor’s chambers. Prompters choose who, where and when, but the filler decides what they do there.

During month of February, a Remix Round will also be open where you can upload remixes of current fills (with permission). Think of it as the illegitimate baby of kpopficmix.

Once a round is over, it will be closed to further prompts.

There is also a bait list. If you're a writer or artist with an agenda or already have ideas you want to do, write it down there! Prompters can look at the bait list and fashion their prompt to 'bait' creators by targeting their weaknesses.

You can also make a bingo card to challenge yourself. All these are bonus activities that are just for fun!

  • Sign up is not required.
  • Fills have a minimum of 400 words for prose, haiku-length for poetry (3 lines), and 400px by 400px for art (memes are also art). Other mediums are fine too!
  • There is no maximum cap.
  • Tag and provide content warnings at your discretion, but a good guide are the Ao3 four (Graphic Depictions of Violence, Major Character Death, Rape/Non-Con, Underage) and this list of common CWs (cr: SportsFest).
  • NSFW/Explicit content should be tagged
  • NSFW art should not be visible. Please provide a link to the art. You may crop the artwork and embed a SFW preview.

Specific rules and instructions will be in the post for each round.

What time zone does this fest run on?

The admin's gut feeling.

(Haha, this is a casual fest run by a human and nothing is programmed so, it'll probably be GMT+12 for opening rounds and GMT-12 for closing.)

Can I prompt and write about other groups?
Cameos and crossovers are fine!!
Can a prompt be filled multiple times?
Yes.
How do I fill out the prompt/fill form?

Ship/Member: These are the members and ships you want to see in the fill. [Any] is the default entry, but you can be as specific or as broad as you like. Cameos, references, Joshua Hong playing guitar in the background...

Major Tags: Please flag if your prompt contains any of the AO3 four (Graphic Violence, MCD, Rape/Noncon, Underage). Flagging here does NOT imply that the fill must have this content. It is a content warning for the prompt only.

When filling, please flag if your fill is explicit or if it contains any of the AO3 Four. It may be a good idea to check with the prompter beforehand if this was left open.

Additional Tags: Anything you feel requires tagging, can include snazzy tumblr-style tags or those worthy of going on the svt ao3 tag twitter.

Do Not Wants: Anything you absolutely do not want to see in a fill.

Permission to Remix?: This is relevant for the Remix Round in February. The options are: Yes/No/Please ask.

Let's say I have a 'friend' who has a WIP languishing in the basement. Can the 'friend' ask people to bait them into working on the WIP?
:^)
What was this inspired by?
It's based off the anime kink meme format, and the bonus rounds of various fandom olympics (example). Comment ficathons were popular on livejournal and dreamwidth where your dear OP had a fun time and wanted to recreate the happiness for Seventeen fandom. OP also had friends who were nostalgic and after a few chats and encouragement, 17hols was born.
I have a question not on this list.
