no one has noticed this but at one point geo said that Cole can cook or something like that and that’s my brain rot for the day thus might not be original hahahaha okbye
a concept that has so much comedic potential is one of the ninja finally finding jay and freaking out about it and jay just playing along with it because he's too awkward and doesn't know what to say and also maybe scared for his life because who are these guys. nya finds him and breaks down into tears and traps him in a bear hug and jays like haha yes! missed you too definitely ahaha! um! nya takes him back to the monastery and its this big sappy reunion and jay pulls arin aside because he seems the least threatening and is like hey excuse me for asking but. Who the fuck are you guys

What's a fic fest?
A fic fest is an event not unlike a secret santa in which fic writers create a story based on someone else’s prompt. The twist here is that instead of some mod assigning you a recipient, you get to choose the prompt that you write! Prompts are submitted by the community (writers and non-writers alike) on ao3, and over a period of two months writers will create a fic based one of those prompts.
How do I participate?
There are two ways to participate in the fest: prompting and claiming/writing. No sign up is required for prompting, and you can decide at any time within that two-month period whether or not you're going to write. You can participate in just prompting, just claiming/writing, or both!
Prompts can be submitted by anyone, not just writers.
Prompting guidelines:
no NSFW prompts
please specify any Wants or Do Not Wants
please leave room for writer creativity in your prompts
prompts may be deleted at mod discretion
Prompting will run from April 6th to April 27th.
After prompting closes, writers will be able to claim prompts on a first come/first serve basis using the claiming form. You must have an ao3 account to participate in claiming/writing.
Claiming/writing guidelines:
no NSFW submissions
submissions must be a minimum of 500 words
submissions must be mindful of their prompt's Wants and Do Not Wants (though you don't have to follow every Want to a T)
chaptered works are allowed as long as the submitted portion equals or exceeds the minimum word count
What happens once all fics are submitted?
Once all the fics are submitted to the ao3 collection, they will be revealed anonymously. After a short period, authors will then be revealed.
What if I need to drop out?
It's super easy to drop out of the event! Since you're not assigned a recipient, there's no one you're letting down by dropping out since there's no guarantee that any prompt will get filled; most won't, in fact, just by the nature of the event. The dropout form is there for this purpose.
Sounds fun! How do I get started?
Actual prompting for the fest will open in one week, on April 6th! In the meantime, follow this blog to stay up-to-date on the happenings. More detailed instructions/information will come as we reach each stage of the event, but if you have any questions, the ask box is always open.
Thanks for checking us out, and I'm so excited to see what we'll all create!
i hope the ninjago fandom never dies because i’d LOVE to be sitting there in like 2040 still scrolling through this silly little app and seeing people posting about silly little legos from 2011 and STILL giggling and kicking my feet
you guys still did great though, clancee was still very much the winner, go slap a nadakhan minifig to celebrate (except the 8% who voted for nadakhan, go repent on your actions /j)
It's OK that we forgot Clancee, he would have won by a landslide. (Probably.) (I've never seen Skybound)
well well well everyone, looks like we’re doing something new this week
the rules are that clancee has to win by a landslide, so nadakhan is only allowed to get 3% of the votes MAX
