This event is an opportunity for us all to share some music with each other!

🎶 Event Rules 🎶

Choose a prompt, find a song that makes you think of or relates to the prompt in some way, and post alongside some other bit of creative work!

‼️ Please don't just post the prompt and song alone! Try to explain yourself, or add some meta, or a gif, or some fan art, or a fic, or stills from the show, or a break down of the specific lyrics that move you. Doesn't have to be shit tonnes of work, just enough that we can understand your thinking and what the connection to the prompt is. I'm posting this at the start of June so you've got some time to gather your thoughts and prepare some songs and related work <3

Shipping is welcome. This is aimed at TOS but if you're vibing any of the other Treks I'm not gonna tell you off, go ahead and do your thing. Up to you how you link the song; spotify, youtube, embedded, just name it and let people find it themselves. All good ✨

Also, tag this blog when you post! I'll reblog everything to this blog

Please let me know if you're loving this event and I'll consider running a new bingo card sheet in a couple months

Reglog! Share with your friends! Follow this blog to let me know you're interested! ❤️

You know, I love a good cranky McCoy as much as the next person, but since 90% of McCoy art (the non-nsfw stuff anyway) seems to leave our doctor sad or angry (I have come to this figure through no scientific means of observation) I propose Softly Smiling Surgeon Sunday.

Who's with me?

Mcspirk Month starts soon!

General rules and guidelines

All fandoms or original content are welcome.

Any kind of media is welcome.

No restrictions in ships, size, pixels, min/max word count or language.

There are a 31 prompts, one for each day of the month + 5 alternatives if needed.

If you plan to share your work, and if you want, you can add it on the 2025 AO3 collection; or, by tagging or mentioning this blog here on tumblr, I'll reblog it.

It's okay to combine more prompts together or with another event.

You don’t have to do all the prompts: do the ones you enjoy.

Domaystic runs actively throughout May; tracking #domaystic2025, mentions @domaystic, and previous years tags too; if you tag the blog on a later date, that’s fine too, I just reblog on a lower pace after May is over.

Tags to navigate the blog: tumblr post or page on blog

Tagging your tumblr post:

Mention: @domaystic or use the tag: #domaystic2025

Tell me the fandom name or if it is original content

Tell me if it is sfw or nsfw

Tell me which prompt you used if a day# or an alt#

For lengthy posts, please use the “read more option”: ctrl-shift-k on rich text; [[*MORE*]] on html (remove asterisks)

Please, TAG PROPERLY. If there are any trigger warning, I will base my own reblog on your tags so, please, take even a moment longer to carefully tag it. I hope all participants to stay safe in this event.

Here’s an example:

This is my fic/art @domaystic ! 

#domaystic2025 #day1 #[altA - E if alternative prompt is used] #[fandom name or oc] #[sfw or nsfw] #[trigger warnings that I get from your post] tw

AO3 collection

We're bringing this event back! Special thanks to the new team who has helped me breathe new life into this event.

This is the sign up form for a Star Trek calendar with a focus on Polyamorous ships. QPRs are valid, and welcomed!

The calendar is for the year 2026.

Please give this post a reblog! While this blog is a Mcspirk focused blog, this event is to celebrate all Poly Star Trek Ships!

[sponesevents]

Do you ship it?

reason: Their fights are explosive and I’m sure the sex would be too (if bones could stop yapping enough to appreciate it). Also you did Spirk & McSpirk so this is the “logical” next step.

Introducing the first event for this Tumblr and for the year, Leonard McCoy Bingo.

There is no deadline and is open to anyone, all you need to do is create something inspired by any of the squares below and post it!

This bingo is open to platonic and/or romantic relationships, any universe or rating you'd like, just make sure to keep the focus on Leonard McCoy and properly tag anything sensitive.

Please tag any of your creations with #leonardmccoybingo2025 and this Tumblr, so that it can be reblogged, you can also post it to ao3 here

Some clarification on a few things:

Scuttlebutt: means rumor or gossip, deriving from the nautical term for the cask used to serve water (or, later, a water fountain).

Dreams of the Raven: The title of a beta canon novel where McCoy loses his memories of the Enterprise and his Starfleet career. A Contest of Principles: Also the title of a beta canon novel where McCoy gets kidnapped.

There are no hard rules for how the fills have to relate to the square. So for the novel titles/episode titles squares, they can be inspired by the plot of the novel/episode or simply from the phrase itself or in whatever way you as the creator interpret the square.
