merydianA couple exchanges I'm excited for.
Saturday Morning Exchange- Animated media focus. Nominations close on April 18th at 1pm Eastern, I think. Cartoons are a bit less popular in exchanges, so I'm really excited for this one because of how important a few are to me! And the minimum is only 500 words which feels very manageable.
Seasons of Drabbles - Drabble exchange! Nominations are open and will continue throughout signups, which I think end on the 28th. I've been missing... I think it was called Multifandom Drabble? For a while, so it's always nice to see alternatives pop up. Drabble word count limits are always soooooo good for challenging my creativity. I may not sign up for this round because the narrow timeline during a very busy few weeks, even though drabbles are such a low commitment, but we'll see. I still hope to keep an eye on things.
Diegetic Exchange - Focused on in-universe RPF, social media, fanfiction, and other in-universe documents. Nominations close on the 26th and the minimum is only 500 words. I LOVED a similar exchange a while back, Unconventional Fanworks, so I'm really stoked for this. I have a few fandoms that work particularly well due to the characters being public figures, like in Hacks and Yellowjackets, it would be so fun to see stuff for.
Early Bird Gets the Word - Exchange for small and inactive fandoms. Noms open in a few days and close on the 30th. Another I'm not sure I can join because the deadline but I imagine there'll be quite a few PHs or treat opportunities, so I'll have to nominate some things just in case.
Honorary Mention - FemGiftboxes still has some participants who need gifts! Gifting closes on the 29th. Check out the spreadsheet here.
I'd love to hear what events other people are excited for in the comments! Especially if you're aware of any exchanges on the horizon that allow fanvids or fanart. I really love having multiple mediums to fall back on or potentially receive.

Early Bird
Date: 2025-05-06 04:28 pm (UTC)Won't be signing up though, because I've written quite a lot for the characters and pairings I've nominated over the past year, and I need to recharge and attend to real life.

Date: 2025-05-06 08:35 pm (UTC)At some point during the timeskip, before Teela met Andra, she encountered her fellow wanderer Lyn. With everyone who told them they had to be enemies now out of their lives, they talk and to resolve that longstanding tension, have a one-off roll in the hay, sort of a "what the hell, may as well" kind of thing.
Ileena becoming the new Captain of the Guard (per the deleted scenes), what she feels about stepping into Teela's boots, what she thinks of her friend abandoning duty, being there at the Palace to see the Royal marriage fall apart and their remaining friends be kicked out.
