The Terror: Sail-Out Summer Flash Fest 2025
About the event
The Sail-Out Summer Flash Fest is a fan creation event dedicated to the voyages of the Franklin Expedition— both the sail out from Greenhithe and the searches sent to bring the expedition home.
We welcome any and all fan creation centered around the sail out from Greenhithe to Baffin Bay, as well as the journey home (anything but the expedition itself)! This is a Terror fan event, but feel free to add historical flavor— each week, we’ll provide a quote from one of the Franklin Expedition letters as a prompt. Don’t feel pressured to fit them all in or adhere to a weekly timeline, just pick a prompt that speaks to you and get creating! Then, post your work on one of our two release days— June 20 for sail-out, or July 22 for the journey home. Happy Sail-Out Summer!
Event Schedule
May 19 - June 19: Sail-Out Creation Period
June 20: Sail-Out Posting Day
June 21 - July 21: Journey Home Creation Period
July 22: Journey Home Posting Day
Event Rules
Ditch the canon timeline! This event is designed to celebrate the parts of the expedition we don’t get to see on screen, so anything before the ships enter the Passage is fair game, as is anything after they disappear (or return home— Ross Ex Machina and other fix-it AUs are encouraged!).
Prompts are inspiration, not restraints! Every week of the event, we will be posting a quote from one of the Franklin Expedition letters along with two additional single-phrase prompts to help get your creativity flowing. While we do encourage tying one or more of these prompts into your work, it’s by no means a requirement. Prompts are not time-limited, either— feel free to mix and match to your heart’s content!
Get historical with it, if you’d like! While this is technically a Terror fan event, we encourage historical RPF as well— just make sure that all works are tagged appropriately!
Tag us! Use the #SailOutSummer25 tag on any of our social media platforms when you post your work so that we can find and share it! Posting days for the event are June 20 and July 22, but feel free to share WIPs during the creation period to your heart’s content!
Have fun! This is meant to be a low-stakes, enjoyable event— if you can’t write something for every week, no worries at all, we’re just happy to have you here!

Alex Greenwald and Ryan Ross joining each other’s bands on stage during the Honda Civic tour. Ryan Ross joined Phantom Planet for Do The Panic but I don’t know what song Alex Greenwald joined Panic! At The Disco for.

This is an important aspect of writing Bruce Wayne, I think. To acknowledge that he thinks about and cares about things like accessibility as part of what Wayne Enterprises does.
#true#so true in fact#but still funny af that those ramps are visibly not ada compliant#like holy shit#those could actually kill someone#they are so steep#and so tall
