I'm currently working on mirroring all [tumblr.com profile] hitmanexchange posts to this comm, just in case my Tumblr account ever gets banned for some stupid reason.
There are currently a lot of placeholders for older events, but they will be filled with content soon...ish.

In the meantime, feel free to check out [tumblr.com profile] hitmanexchange for infos on older events that aren't on here yet.

Just to clarify: The Tumblr blog will not be discontinued! Every admin post will be found both here and on Tumblr!

The Basics:
Hitman Halloween Party is a prompt fest for the Hitman fandom inspired by the Trick or Treat Exchange.

Prompt fills should have a minimum wordcount of 500 words.

What is a prompt fest?

A Prompt Fest is a challenge in which participants can submit one or more fanwork prompts that other participants can choose to fill.

Nominations:
The first phase of Hitman Halloween Party is nominations, where you submit the characters, relationships and additional tags that you are interested in writing or receiving in this prompt fest to the tag set. Each person can nominate ten character or relationship tags and 20 additional tags. The tag set is what participants can use for their prompts later in the process.

What fandoms are eligible?

Hitman (Video Games), Agent 47: Birth of the Hitman (Comics), Hitman: Enemy Within, Hitman: Damnation

Nominations format

You can nominate characters, relationships, and additional tags.

Nominating characters

You may nominate named characters that don’t have a tag on the Archive yet. Please use the name order "Given Name Family Name" as usual for Western canons.

Nominating Relationships

You may nominate / or & relationships. "A/B" is a romantic or sexual relationship; "A & B" is a platonic or familial relationship.

Nominating mixed groups (A/B & C) is allowed.

Please alphabetise ships by family name.

Nominating Scenarios

You may nominate additional tags to add scenarios, situations and details to the tag set. These can be used as inspiration and to later craft the prompts.

Prompts:
How many prompts can I add?

You can add up to two prompts to the collection. If you add two prompts, one of them should be for a Trick and one should be for a Treat. If you only add one prompt, you can choose if you’d rather receive a Trick or a Treat.

Additional Tags

For each prompt you can include up to 20 additional tags from our 2023 tag set. If you’d like to suggest a specific scenario, add it to your prompt’s description.

Try to find the right balance between an interesting idea that gives authors something to work with and a too restrictive prompt.

Characters and Ships

Requests for individual characters can be gen or shippy. You may request a single character and mention in your optional details what scenarios or ships you would enjoy them in; however, a ship is not guaranteed.

If you absolutely want to see the character interacting with a specific other character, make sure to request ship tags — A/B for romantic or sexual interactions, A & B for platonic or familial interactions.

Trick or Treat

Please add the tags Trick or Treat: Trick or Trick or Treat: Treat to your prompt, to make sure you receive the kind of gift you were looking for.

A trick should be more horror, occult, supernatural, or scary. A treat should be more sweet, sexy, or fluffy. These are a bit vague to give the writer room for how they interpret trick or treat.

DNW and Letters

You also have the option to add a link to a letter. These can be very useful to give your writer ideas for possible tricks and treats. It can also be invaluable for telling them what you do not want at all.

If you have anything you Do Not Want (DNW), it must be in the prompt directly to be enforceable. Authors should respect the Do Not Want list; however, the requester should not abuse it to try and force the author into a corner. Do Not Wants that appear only in an external letter will not be enforced.

Am I guaranteed one (or two) gifts?

No. This is a prompt fest, not a gift exchange. Prompt fills are not guaranteed, but we can work together to make sure everyone gets a gift.

Can I stay anonymous?

You can add your prompt(s) anonymously, but I’d recommend de-anoning before October 30th, to give your author the option to gift their work to you.

Prompt Fills:
Minimum Requirements

To go with the Halloween theme of a quick treat (or trick), the minimum requirements are intentionally low: 500 words. If you want to write more, you can.

Prompt fills need to include the requested character(s) and character dynamics, as well as the scenario suggested in the prompt. They also need to be themed trick or treat according to their request. Works need to be newly published for this exchange and created by you.

Posting

In order to post, go to your AO3 claims page and click the "fill" button on your claimed prompt. That will take you to a new-works form with the prompt already tickied. If the prompt you picked was not anonymous (or is not anonymous anymore by October 30th), please gift your work to the person whose prompt you picked. You might need to add the username yourself.

Deadline

There is no hard deadline, but since this is a Halloween themed prompt fest, you should aim for having your prompt fill ready before is October 31st.

Anonymity

Works are anonymous until creator reveals, the weekend after work reveals.

Extra Tricks and Treats

You may claim a prompt that has already been claimed by someone else. Since this is a prompt fest without assignments, please try to also claim a prompt that hasn't been claimed yet, to make sure everyone who participates receives at least one gift.

Be friendly!
Make sure that your prompts and your fanworks do not contain any hostile elements towards people you disagree with in any part of the fanwork (title, tags, summary, author's notes, body text). Refrain from adding DNI notes.

If you shame or harass other participants, or if there are signs that you have deliberately caused problems in multiple exchanges, the mod will delete your signup.
