WISHMAKING IS NOW CLOSED
How The Event Works: The Wishlist Event is here to bring you lots of writing fun! [AND ART]
You reply to this post with your wishlist. Your wishlist can be as long and as specific as you want (within reason, of course - please contain your list to one comment), but must contain requests for ficlets (or art) of rare pairings – pairings. Please note, there is no wishing format. You can post your wish in any style you want. Pairing specific prompts. List of prompts. List of pairings. Here's a sample of how people made a wish last year. (LJ Example & DW Example)
BANNED PAIRING LIST - LJ.
BANNED PAIRING LIST - DW.
Also, if you're the kind of person who ships really, really rare things, it would be a good idea to include a wide range of other ships so you can get at least one wish granted.
Carte blanche wishlists are actually more frustrating than helpful, so please try to avoid those as well. A simple list of pairings and prompts tends to work best.
Your comments will be screened to begin with. The “Wish List Sign Up” will run until May 30th. What does that mean? It means that no one can see you wishlist except for you and the MOD until May 30. (*NOTE* It's MAY 30 not 31. T H I R T I E T H of MAY). On May 31st, we will "reveal" them all!
After MAY 30 (10 pm EST) no one else may post a wishlist. If you do post a wishlist, you may certainly edit or add to it at any time before May 30th. Just an FYI, if you comment on your own wish list, you cannot edit the original post. You cannot edit your comment if you post anonymously.
We will reveal the WISHLIST on May 31st. The wish-granting shall begin on June 1st. Details as far as granting wishes will be given at that time.
There is no obligation in this event. If you post a wishlist, you don't need to grant other people's wishes; similarly, if you don't post a wishlist, you may still grant others' wishes. However, it really is a lot more fun if everyone participates semi-equally! :)
If you have any questions, please DO NOT ASK HERE. This post is for WISHLISTS only! For questions: ASK HERE ON LIVEJOURNAL / DREAMWIDTH. Do not PM us - Private Messages go unread.
AGAIN: there is no wishing format. You can post your wish in any style you want. Pairing specific prompts. List of prompts. List of pairings. Do what you feel best! We are both on LJ and DW. You only post one wishlist in one platform.
Comments are screened. If you post something and it disappears, don't freak out. I promise you, it's there. Don't post multiple times. If you post your wish list anonymously, it will disappear, and you won't be able to see it. (But we will be able to see it, and it will be revealed on May 31). This fest will only be successful if people post wishes! Even if you only ship 2 or 3 pairings — don't worry! Put in a wish. This is YOUR CHANCE to BE SELFISH w/out any obligation!
Happy wishing!

Likes
I like dark characters being good to each other. Example: Barty and Regulus join the DEs together and kick ass and are good at it! Or the same plot for Alecto and Bellatrix.
I like "light" characters going dark. Example: Bill Weasley becomes a Death Eater spy.
I love "neutral" characters where they try to manage their piece of the world as best they can and refuse to take sides—family comes first, and they'd do anything to save their loved ones.
I like Voldemort-wins-AUs with a sane Voldemort, and characters just living ordinary lives in this world.
I like fluff, dark fic, sappy romance, smut, PWP, pretty much the gamut.
Dislikes
For any good guy/bad guy pairing, I do not want the "bad" character turning "good."
Please no: shipping underage characters, noncon between the main ship (dubcon or technical problems like lack of informed consent is fine!), a/b/o, genderbending, soulmates tropes, character bashing, or prohibited ships even in a minor sense (e.g., background Drarry or Sirius and Remus flirting).
