![]() In the grand scheme of things, capturing a moment is much like capturing a Pokemon — it takes a lot of effort and patience. Sometimes, you get lucky; most of the time, you don’t. So you wait for that magical moment and watch as the ball twitches, rolling over to either side thrice until the shaking stops. In the same way, capturing Pokemon is much like waiting for a Suho/Chen moment to happen — it’s painstakingly difficult. And frustrating. But rewarding, just the same. Presenting: Critical Capture, a Suho/Chen fic fest! What is CRITICAL CAPTURE? ![]() How does it work? A fic fest is a prompt and claim fic event where people can leave prompts on the chosen platform, in this case Archive of Our Own. After all prompts have been collected, we will then reveal all prompts so a writer can claim a prompt of their choice. Their job now is to write it and submit it by the given deadline. Easy enough, right? Professor Oak, what are the RULES? 1. Given that this is a Suho/Chen fic fest, you may only focus on Suho/Chen. Side pairings are fine, but the fic should revolve around their relationship. 2. The minimum word count is 1500 words. Exceeding the minimum is always encouraged, though. 3. Please DO NOT REVEAL to anyone which fic you wrote while this exchange is ongoing. 4. Please do not* drop out OR discuss your assignment in public. We will hunt you down, we swear. * If you absolutely cannot write your prompt any longer, please do email/contact us as soon as possible. Due to the fact that this is a fic fest, we will not be looking for pinch hitters in case you drop your prompt. We will, however, be left with no choice but to put your prompt back in our prompts list and allow other people to claim them. 5. Further rules and guidelines will be found in our FAQ! Important dates FAQ, Prompting, and Claiming posts will be posted a week before they open! Prompting period: May 8 - 22, 2017 Prompt reveals: May 24, 2017 Claiming period begins: May 26, 2017 Check in for early claimers (May 26 - Jun 30): (minimum of 500 words) July 31, 2017 Claiming period ends: September 8, 2017 Deadline of fic: (minimum of 1500 words) September 15, 2017 Posting: September 25, 2017 Reveals: October 2, 2017 (Tentative) This fest will run in American Samoa Time, SST.
