Alright, let's kick this baby off right!

Prompt submissions are now open! The submission form will be open until 11:00pm EDT on August 19th.

And! A little something different this year...

Inspired by Zhaozai Palooza (one of my ultimate role models for a spectacularly fun fandom event 😉), prompts from previous years are fair game for Sukka Week 2023 — meaning, if you want to submit a work during this year's Sukka Week that matches one of the prompts from 2021 or 2022, please feel free to do so!

That said, you can still submit prompts for this year's event that are similar to prompts from previous years. But know that you don't have to in order to use one of the previous ones.

And to refresh your memory, here are the previous prompts!

News has it Admiral Zhao has received an even bigger promotion that outranks all the military ranks—Firelord Ozai’s Consort.

Don’t be fooled. Such luxury and power would only lead down to a more heart-ripping and ugly path…

Unfortunately for Zhao, he would only learn too late.

This is an old prompt from 2021–“Royal Consort AU” for @zhaozaipalooza !!

#Ducky’s art #atla #avatar the last airbender #zhao #atla zhao #admiral zhao #consort!zhao au #zhaozai palooza 2023 #implied zhaozai #only this version of zhaozai is actually pretty toxic and kinda implicates power imbalance (i suppose??)

Originally for one of the prompts for the zhaozaipalooza 2023 @zhaozaipalooza, I present some late Zhaoku art.

Water tribe!Zhao (or rather Captive-to-WT-Zhao) being an tribesmen magnet 2: the eletric boogaloo. For the event of @zhaozaipalooza

Last day of the @zhaozaipalooza for 2023 is “running out of time”/“duty” and I stay unserious so here’s modern verse zhaozai with Zhao following duty and keeping an eye on Ozai.
