Final Fantasy Ficathon '05.

Final Fantasy Ficathon

Okay, here's the deal. You sign up, receive a writing assignment, write a fic of around 1,000 words (can be over, shouldn't be too much under) for someone else and someone else writes a fic based on your request. You'll have around one month to write your fic and post it in your livejournal. A masterlist will be posted once everybody gets their fics up.

You'll have two options where to choose from. If you feel inspired and have enough time, you may write both, but you only have to write one.

Dates:
Sign-ups close: March 18th 2005
Assignments sent out: March 20th 2005 (or March 21st, depending on how long it takes for me to pair everyone up)
Last chance to drop out: April 7th 2005 (If writing your assignment feels absolutely painful/impossible, feel free to let me know you're dropping out. Then I can get someone to write your assignment or write it myself to make sure everyone gets their assignment filled.)
Fics due: April 24th 2005

Request #1
Fandom: (FF something, obviously!)
Two characters: (Paired or not paired, doesn't matter. Eg. "Cloud/Sephiroth" if paired, "Rinoa and Edea", if not.)
Two things you want to see: (This could be anything, really, a setting, a bit of dialogue, an object, a rating... Eg. "Takes place on an airship, smut".)
Two things you don't want to see: (Same as above. Eg. "Character death, angsty!Cloud".)

Request #2 (Please note! Request #2 has to be of a different game than #1.)
Fandom:
Two characters:
Two things you want to see:
Tho things you don't want to see:

Fandoms you know: (List all FF's you know here, games from I to X-2, Final Fantasy: Spirits Within [yes, that crappy film], Kingdom Hearts, Tactics and the anime versions [I wouldn't really call Crystal Chronicles a Final Fantasy game. I'm sorry, I just wouldn't]. Don't feel uneasy about mentioning FF's you've never written previously, it's a challenge, after all. Note! FFX and FFX-2 will be thought as separate fandoms as they *are* separate games.)

Limitations: (Things like "I really can't write smut" or "I simply refuse to write Zell" or "I would rather not write Cloud/Aeris as that pairing makes me cringe" would go here. Try not to have too much of these. This only exists so that writing won't be absolutely painful to you, but again, this is a challenge. But if you feel like writing something would just be utterly impossible for you, mention it here. Also, say you've played your way almost to the end of FFVI, but haven't completed the final boss yet, but you still mentioned FFVI as a fandom you can write in. Mention that here, as well.)

Could you be a back-up writer? (Hopefully too many people won't drop out, but if some people do, I would appreciate some help in writing the assignments they were supposed to.)

Well, there you go. Sign up, pimp this in your own LJ and/or Final Fantasy communities that allow pimping. The more participants, the more fic!
