First and foremost, respect. This is an event intended to have a good time, and we expect respect for (and from) all participants.We also expect you to tag your works accordingly using the #nsfw hashtag when necessary as well as any other Trigger Warnings that may apply (TW// MCD, cheating, dysphoria…).We will not retweet any work that contains non-con, incest, underage sex and similar content, even if it's tagged.Please check our FAQ section for more info about the event :)

FAQ

❥ Do I have to use all the prompts?
Not at all! Prompts are meant just as inspiration — you can use one, two, three of them or none. You can also mix prompts from different days or come up with your own tropes. Let your imagination flow!❥ Is NSFW content allowed?
Sure! As long as it is properly tagged, shows the pertinent warnings, and the characters portrayed are +18, it is alright.Please note that we won't share any NSFW work made by minors.❥ What about oiiwa?
We love Oikawa and Iwaizumi in all forms and orders; iwaoi, oiiwa… everything’s welcome here! Just in case, and since it may be an important distinction for other fans, we’ll ask you to tag it accordingly.❥ Are side pairings allowed?
Yes, as long as the main ship of your work is Iwaoi :)❥ What about Iwaoi + another character(s)?
This event is focused on Iwaizumi and Oikawa’s relationship, so we won’t be retweeting works that include poly relationships.❥ Can I use old works that fit the day’s prompts?
Sure. Just tag us and use the Week’s hashtag and we’ll make sure to retweet it so your old work gets new love. Please check that the old work in question has all the relevant Trigger Warnings in order.❥ What happens if I’m late to one of the days?
Don’t worry about it! Once the Week begins we will be retweeting all works related to the event as soon as we see them, it doesn’t matter if your day-1-related work is posted on day 5 (or after the end of the Week!). Follow the days/prompts at your own rhythm!❥ I have further questions / comments / ideas!
You can reach us in neospring, where both your question and our answer will be public, or PM us via twitter or bluesky. It may take us a while to get back to you, but we’ll try to do it asap :)
