🌙 Sign Ups, Claiming & Rules

You must complete the Google Form and claim your prompt on the AO3 collection. If you do not submit the Google Form, your submission will not be considered.

There's an option when signing up for those who are still undecided (we totally get it since there are a lot of songs to choose from), but your first prompt must be decided by May 20, 2024, when sign ups close (you can do an additional prompt if you want to after this date, but the first must be fulfilled).

You may only claim one prompt at a time. If you decide to change your prompt, please let us know. You cannot claim two prompts; one must be fulfilled before you claim the other.

Collaborations are welcome!

Betas are not required to submit to the fest, though you're more than welcome to use an outside beta if you'd like (and there are other participants in the Discord server happy to help out).

There is a 1,000 word minimum for all submitted fics. There is no maximum.

This fest does allow darker themes (including dead dove: do not eat), but we require that all works be tagged appropriately and sensitively. This fest is an 18+ fest.

All submissions are due on June 24, 2024, by 11:59 PM EST. If you need an extension or to drop out, please let the fest mods know ASAP so we can adjust the posting schedules.

If you have any questions not answered here or in the FAQ & Rules sections on the AO3 collection, don't hesitate to shoot us an ask 🖤 We'd be more than happy to help!

We look forward to creating with you, and we hope you'll come join our little community on Discord where we talk all things Harry Potter, Taylor Swift, and so much more ✨🏛️🌙

🌙 Sign-Ups & Claiming

You must complete the Google Form for your sign-up as well as claim your choice of prompt on the AO3 collection.

You may only claim one prompt at a time. If you finish your prompt, you may claim an additional prompt, but you must submit your first prompt as per submission guidelines.

One song prompt can be claimed by multiple people (it's not first come, first serve). You can use a song in any way you like for inspiration — title, lyrics, vibes… You do not need to title your work after the song or use lyrics in any way if you don’t want to.

Collaborations are welcome! Collabs can be illustrated fics, multi-writer fics, multi-artist artworks, etc.

✨ Creating

All ships from all generations are welcome (Marauders, Golden Era, and Next Gen). This is not a ship-specific or generation-specific fest.

There is a minimum word count of 1,000 words for all submitted fics. For podfics, the recorded story should be a minimum of 1,000 words. There is no maximum for either fics or podfics.

Multi-chapter fics are allowed, but you must finish the first chapter of the fic by the submission deadline.

All works must be tagged appropriately! In light of the mental health topics alive and real in this album, please consider yourself, your fellow participants, and your readers when discussing any themes on mental health in your works.

🏛️ Posting

Posting will begin on July 1, 2024, and the schedule will not be publicly released.

If you have any questions, please feel free to drop us an ask!

Every day I mourn the fact that one day of the best people I've met don't live in the same country as me. And you can say that it makes the friendship more precious.

You know what would be precious?

Being able to ring them in the evening and say “I had a bad day can we go for a walk?”

Grab a quick bite on our lunch breaks.

Randomly stumble upon them in the city and even tho we will see each other soon we have to exchange those few sentences.

Having a cup of coffee without any talking because we have all the time to chat later.

this part of lily evans’ fandom wiki shouldn’t be so fucking funny

James Potter is a neck kisser and a waist grabber.

Regulus Black is a neck grabber and a fierce biter.

I was just thinking about my ex-best friend a few days ago.

For 12 years I knew every single thing that happened to you and now I don't even know where you live and how you are. And I don't wanna know, you made your own choice.

But every morning I make tea into a mug you gave me for my birthday. The painting you did on it has been washed out for years. The lyrics to a specific song I sing a little quieter with a sad pinch in my chest. I visited places we talked about for hours with someone else. There are old concert tickets in the forgotten box in the back of my cupboard that I don't remember anymore.

When I stumble upon your picture you still look the same but I don't recognize you anymore.

I might miss our friendship sometimes. But I'm surely not missing you.

friendship breakups are so fucked up because what do you mean you held my hand all throughout my grandmother's funeral and i spent so many mornings having breakfast with your mom because you wake up late and you taught me how to smoke and i waxed your pussy and we got drunk in your bedroom with your dad's expensive ass wine but the other day we walked past each other at the grocery store and didn't say a word as if we didn't know each other's deepest darkest secrets?

i still remember what your old house used to smell like and you still do your makeup the way i told you would make your eyes pop and i still have your lighter and you still post pictures with the necklace i let you borrow when we went to your cousin's wedding but i would rather die than talk to you ever again and you'd probably kill yourself before apologizing so fuck you and your dog i share a birthday with i guess

being a marauders fan is a red flag.

it’s also an orange flag.

and a yellow flag. and a green, a blue and a purple one.

you’re gay.

i would sell my left kidney for james potter btw

This is so Jegulus when their ending is coming and they both know it. This song fills the silence they are both afraid to break in fear it will all inevitably go crashing down.

There is so many beautiful heartbreaking Czech songs that would perfectly fit the marauders. I'm so sad I will never get to share it with you guys in their true extent 😭

"Poets would compare them to ships, doomed to pass each other forever in the cruel sea. But to James, Regulus always felt like a lighthouse and his light a sign of longed-for homecoming."

[kiwi2229]

i think..i think james has bad days. i think that he acts confident but he goes home and starts sobbing because why isn’t he handsome enough to be seen as handsome and why isn’t he smart enough to be a smart kid and why isn’t he sporty enough to be a sports kid and why isn’t he strong enough to not care what people say and why doesn’t lily or regulus liked him back and why does everyone seem to hate him today and why
