Boys on Top was created to ignite a spark in SHINee ficdom once again and, somehow, lessen, if not eliminate, R-rated or mature fics without plot or substance. There is no set theme, but there is a set range for ratings - G to PG-13 (
reference). Anything beyond that is not allowed.
The rules are simple: write a SHINee fic (may be a character-centric fic, SHINee pairing, or a crossover pairing) on any theme, rated G to PG-13, with a minimum word count of 1000 words. You will be given two weeks to write your fic, after which you will have to send it to boysmyboys@gmail.com. Please follow the format below when submitting your fic:
SUBJECT: BOYS ON TOP [SEASON]: your username

Title:

Warnings (if any:)
** Send your fic as an attachment, with all the necessary HTML codes in place.
Below is a sample submission and the codes to be used:
SUBJECT: BOYS ON TOP [SUMMER]: boysontop
Title: Boys, My Boys
Author: boysontop
Rating: PG-13
Pairing/Focus: OT5
Brief summary: The SHINee boys get sucked into the world of "Boys Be" and decide to twist the story so that Kyoichi and Yoshihiko end up together. The only problem is, they're the ones playing the characters, and Jonghyun (Kyoichi) does not like Minho (Yoshihiko) at all.
Warnings (if any:) Shameless lulz.
** ATTACHED FIC **
Title:Author:Rating:Pairing/Focus:Brief summary:Warnings (if any:) Please do not put any "special" formatting in your codes. Also, please use the same fic header (Title, Author, etc) in the fic itself.
