BNHA Rarepair Bang
18+ event for all the masochists in rarepair hell
Faqs
What is a bang?
A bang is an event where writers and artists are paired up together to create art and a fic from the same story. Writers submit summaries of the stories they plan to write, and artists will then choose which stories they want to create art for. Writers and artists have the opportunity to collaborate on the story together. It's not like a zine, which usually involves profit or charity for the content that is created. Also, bangs will accept anyone who wants to participate in the event, while zines typically choose a limited amount of contributors through applications. I hope this has helped to explain the differences between the two and look forward to having you join our bang event!
What types of ships/content are allowed?
Any, including problematic ships/content, as long as everything is tagged. Even poly ships are welcome, as long as they focus on a rare pair!
What is considered "rare"?
We are considering a rare pair to be any pairing that has 1k or less fics with the ship tag on AO3.
What is the minimum word count?
As of right now we're considering a range of 3-5k for the minimum, however this may change due to the interest check!
Rules
All participants must be 18+ and have discord.
Any type of content is allowed as long as the main focus is on at least one rare pair.
For the purpose of this bang, a rare pair is defined as any ship having fewer than 1k fics on AO3. If you feel your pair is on the line, feel free to talk to a mod.
POLYSHIPS must have at least ONE pair that would be considered a rarepair.For example, Todo/baku/deku would not be considered a rarepair because Todo/baku, Baku/deku, Deku/Todo all individually have more than 1k fics. Todo/Mina/Baku would be considered a rarepair polyship because Todo/Mina and Mina/Baku have less than 1k fics.
Participants must create a new work. Already started WIPs are acceptable as long as they have not been published anywhere.
Work may not be posted or shared outside the bang until it is over, to ensure the content remains a surprise when it is released.
Minimum word count for writers will be determined after the interest check
Requirements for artists will be determined after the interest check. Please check back with us once the interest check is over.
Multi chapter fics are permitted as long as:1) you meet the minimum word count by the posting date and2) you are able to commit to finishing your fic.
Please note that this is a pro-ship event. Ship hate, harassment, or any kind of anti behavior will not be tolerated.
