Leslie/Ben Holiday Fest
(banner made by the lovely craponaspatula)
Welcome everyone to the first ever leslie_ben holiday fest, organized by myself and kyrieanne! During the next month, we will be having an assortment of holiday discussions focused on several different aspects of the winter season and how they relate to the characters of Parks and Recreation (along with yourselves), as well as a gift-giving holiday activity of sorts.
Here’s how it goes: in this post, you are to comment with a list of fandom related gifts you would like (basically a wish list.) By ‘fandom related’ I mean fanfic, fanmixes, picspams, icons, artwork - basically anything that is virtual and free. Your requests can range from the detailed (ex. ‘I want a fic where Leslie and Ben bake five apples pies and then make out’) to the vague (ex. ‘I’d love a holiday themed Leslie/Ben mix), and are not required to keep on the holiday theme, although it would be nice if people could try and throw lots of holiday requests out there to get us all in the spirit. All comments containing a request will be screened, FYI. Then, next week (on Dec. 7th to be specific), there will be another post made containing every prompt, and then people can start filling. You can fill as many prompts as you wish, and one prompt can be filled more then once if multiple people would like to try their hand at it, but it should be noted that nobody is required to fill anything. This isn’t like a fic exchange or Secret Santa where you are given a partner and must give them something; this is a casual activity, where you only fill if you’re moved to. This is the busiest time of the year, and I’d hate to put pressure on anyone.
Below are the guidelines for prompting:
- You are allowed to make as many requests as you want, and remember that you don’t have to make a fill for every gift you request.
- When prompting, please use proper spelling and grammar. Listen, I am the worst speller in the history of ever, and will not care if you make a few typos, but I don’t enjoy it when people post requests like they do texts.
- While it’s not required, when prompting please try and make at least one holiday themed request.
- Try and use bullet points or numbers to distinguish your different prompts.
- Please note that you do not have to prompt to fill.
- In case it’s not clear, no one will be sending you anything via mail, meaning leaving your address is pointless. Furthermore, requesting for anything that can’t be sent virtually is a waste of your time. In addition, don’t request anything that has to be paid for.
- Again, please remember that all comments containing a request are screened, so if you have a question please make it in a separate comment than your prompt.
