So I would like to apologize for not being here for a week. But since more than a week has passed since claims for the whoniverse1000  Revival Ficathon opened, I'd say it's high time we got started! 

This is the Master Post; once you're finished with your fic or art, link us to it in a comment here. If it's hosted on your own journal, link to both your journal entry and the comment on the main post. And then, once you've done that, go back to the Claims Post and pick out another pairing! Heck, just because the master post is up doesn't mean you can't still go claim a pairing if you hadn't already. More = merrier and all that.

Since I was a bit dumb and forgot to put a due date, let's make it March 31st. That'll be when the ficathon ends.

Remember, the rules and directions and technicalities and suchlike are all back at the Claims Post; PM or comment to me if you've got any questions.

Happy writing!
 

All right, enough procrastinating, it's time to open up the
 

WHONIVERSE 1000 REVIVAL FICATHON!

What's going on here: So, lo these many years ago in 2008, settiai  had a really cool idea: Since Doctor Who has been running for a good 45 years and has dozens upon dozens of characters, why not try to write 1000 different combinations/pairings of those characters? And thus, whoniverse1000  was born!

And for a while it was pretty great - people wrote pairings that had no other fic and sometimes shouldn't have worked but did, and it was a lot of fun just seeing what people could come up with for these people distributed across space and time to interact with each other. But, around 240 fics (no mean feat) it kind of petered out. And I think that's a shame.

So, let's give it a little more love! 

How it works: For whoniverse1000 , people wrote short fics for their pairing in the comments section of the main post, then request three different pairings - however random or improbable - at the end of their fic. Someone who wanted to write or draw that pairing would leave a comment fic as a reply to that comment

1) Behind this link is the list of all the requested, unwritten pairings on the comm so far. If you want to participate, claim a prompt in the comments to this post! Claim for fic, art, whatever. Claimed prompts will be posted here, to avoid doubling (due to the size of the unclaimed prompt list I can't just post it here behind the cut; it makes the post too big).

2) Claiming stays open until the 10th of March, little more than a week. After that, it's time to write!

3) Fic can be as short as 100 words or as long as you like; art should be posted in your own journal with a thumbnail in the comment. When you're done, post your fic or art in the main post, as a reply if it's a pairing requested in an existing thread.

4) Once you've finished your fic or art, leave a comment linking to it on the writing post; if you want to keep going, go back to the claims post here and claim another prompt, and so on and so forth.

5) For now, let's stick with previously-requested prompts, rather than starting new threads, although if absolutely none of the requested pairings appeal to you, go ahead and go with something new. The Doctor Who Random Pairing Generator may be of help here. :D But part of the fun here is seeing which improbably and strange pairings can get written here!

6) Remember, leave feedback on the feedback post, or in the link on the ficathon page - the main page is just for fics.

7) If you have a pairing you want to claim and would like a prompt to get started, just ask for a prompt in the comments - I'll give you a word, image, or lyric for you to go on.

8) Remember: Use warnings for common triggers if your fic requires them (common triggers here being rape, other consent issues, abuse (especially of children), self-harm, and graphic violence (please let me know if I've forgotten any)), be nice to each other, and don't bash other pairings or characters in your fic.

9) Be sure to pimp this in your own journal or relevant comms! The more the merrier!

Have fun, and happy writing!
