Nominations Queries
Apr. 21st, 2025 06:05 pmlittlefics posting in seasonsofdrabblesSignups have just opened, and nominations are still ongoing!
We havetwo three nominations queries at this time. If you were one of the nominators of these tags, we would appreciate you helping us with clarifications:
Thank you!
We have
- Little Shop of Horrors - Menken/Ashman: The tag "Chantel (Little Shop of Horrors)" was nominated, but we are having trouble confirming that this character exists. Could the nominator share information on where they appear in the canon?
- Eizouken ni wa Te wo Dasu na! | Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken!: The tag "Sheriff Dekastop (Eizouken)" was nominated, but we are having trouble confirming that this character exists. Could the nominator share information on where they appear in the canon?
- Heartbeat (UK TV): The tag "Cup of Tea (Object and Concept Anthropomorphism)" was nominated, but we wanted to double-check if this is indeed a nomination for a cup of tea that appears in Heartbeat—in which case it should be disambiguated with the proper fandom—or if it was an error.
Thank you!

Signups now open!
Apr. 20th, 2025 11:26 pmlittlefics posting in seasonsofdrabblesSignups are now open (a tiny bit early)! They will remain open until Monday, April 28 @ 11:59pm Eastern Daylight time (Countdown). You can browse the requests in the app!
The tagset will remain open for nominations through the end of signups. Please disambiguate your nominations to make the approvals process faster. IMPORTANT NOTE! If AO3 won't let you signup for a character that you know is definitely in the tagset, please comment here or email us with the exact fandom and character(s) you were trying to request/offer. A mod will then batch load it for you on the backend, and you will be able to request it.

A mod will then batch load it for you on the backend, and you will be able to request it.
- You must request 3-10 fandoms with 1-20 characters and 1-7 drabble types each. Fandoms in your requests must be unique, but may be related (e.g., three Star Wars requests would be fine, as long as it was three separate Star Wars fandoms).
- If you wish, you may request Any for drabble type. This means you are open to receiving any of the 7 drabble types in the tagset.
- If you wish, you may request Any character. This means any character in the canon (NOT just the tagset). Please do not request Any unless you really are open to receiving any character from that canon.
- If you have character DNWs, requesting Any might not be the best idea, as this could end up with a bad match with someone who had only offered that character. We will be checking for this before we send assignments, but it's possible we could miss something, which would lead to us having to re-assign your writer and send you to pinch hit. (Note that the character DNW would still be upheld in this situation.) If you are requesting Any and do not wish to receive fic about objects, etc., you should DNW that as well.
- Blank signups are allowed, but prompts, likes, and a list of DNWs are strongly encouraged.
Offers:
- You must offer 3-10 fandoms with 1-20 characters and 1-7 drabble types each. Fandoms in your offers must be unique, but may be related (e.g., three Star Wars offers would be fine, as long as it was three separate Star Wars fandoms).
- If you wish, you may offer Any for drabble type. This means you are open to writing any of the 7 drabble types in the tagset. (Note that unless your recipient has also requested Any, you must write one of the specific drabble types they requested.)
- If you wish, you may offer Any character. This means any character in the tagset (i.e., if your recipient has requested specific characters, you must write one of them). Please do not offer Any unless you really are open to writing any character in the tagset for that fandom (including any last-minute additions to the tagset).
Do Not Wants:
- Only reasonable DNWs in your AO3 signup will be enforced.
- A reasonable DNW is a DNW that is clear and does not attempt to box your writer into writing just one thing.
Other:
- Some tags may not appear in the drop-down menu, but can still be used by copy-pasting from the tagset itself. This is a known AO3 bug.
- If you encounter any issues while signing up, please let us know ASAP, as AO3 bugs can sometimes hit exchanges.
- If you need to let us know something about your signup (such as not wanting to be assigned to a specific other participant), please contact us via email (seasonsofdrabbles AT gmail) or the mod contact post.
