Exchange Assignments Are Out!

I repeat, exchange assignments are out! Check your AO3 associated email.

[ff7central]

It’s the final day to sign up! Get your sign up in today so we can start working on those matches! Please make sure you have a current method of contact in your sign up in case we need to reach you.

Meteorites, it’s time again for the Annual Fanworks Exchange! Sign ups are now open and will close at 11:59 pm EST on June 21st. Sign ups and assignments will be via AO3 (Archive of Our Own). If you don’t have an account, some of the mods do have invitations available. You can message with your email address OFF Anon on Tumblr to request an invitation but they are first come, first serve.

Please read through the instructions carefully, and make sure to give us contact information in case we need to follow up on any details! We want to make sure we make the best matches we can.

You can sign up on AO3 at https://archiveofourown.org/collections/2025Exchange/signups/new

Once sign ups close, the mods will begin the match up process to find you a match! Assignments should be out by end of day June 30th, but if there are any delays, we will let you know.

You will have until 11:59 pm EST July 31st to complete your gift. If you need to drop out for any reason, please let the mods know as soon as you can so we can find a pinch hitter. Don’t worry, we all know that life is a box of uncertainty, and there is no shame in needing to step away. Gifts will be revealed August 7th, so we have a bit of time to look after any late pinch hits. (If we can reveal earlier, we will.)

We do have a section in the FF7Central Discord server for participants to hang out. Be careful not to spoil your gift for your giftee, but you’re welcome to join in for word sprints, collective screaming at characters for not doing what they’re told, and general shouting of encouragement. If you need an invitation, please send us an ask off anon, or message @asylos or Mirintala on Discord.

For the FF7 fanworks exchange ere we allowed to make requests that draw on other franchises? Not, like, crossovers, but like "Assassin's Creed AU". It would make sense if you weren't allowed to do that for more than one of your requests, but is it allowed at all?

Hi there, yes AUs are allowed. If you were to write them into more than one prompt you would likely be asked to revise them. We can’t know every other IP each participant is familiar with, but folks do indicate if they’re comfortable writing in AUs.

It can be helpful to include what aspects of the AU you’re looking for, so if the person likes the “feel” of the AU but isn’t intimately familiar with the setting they can decide if they want to give it a go.
