Tag Announcement + Summer Fandom Events

[hoodietime.livejournal.com]

Happy summer solstice, everyone!

Just a few updates and calendar-type announcements:

Community Announcement:
I've somewhat belatedly added a demon!dean tag, and am in the process of back-tagging all of the works that have featured him so far! :D Please feel free to use it as liberally as possible, whether it's H/C related to Dean being demonic, to the identity issues that crop up therein, the terror of altered states (which is also a tag!), the adorability of cuddlebunny demon!Dean, Cain!bloodlust, etc.

Other fancy new H/C elements that demon!dean opens wiiiiiide for us: Dean-possessing-things H/C! (who knows, maybe it hurts! maybe it's cathartic). Trapped-in-a-devil's-trap scenarios! The newfound dangers of holy water, salt, Ruby's knife, etc. Let's milk this Hellatus for all its worth, guys. >;D

Also, in MERE DAYS we will be hosting a general Dean-centric hurt/comfort meme--as always, open to fic, art, and anything in between and outside of those! So make sure you're thinking up cool prompts, whether they're about the S9 finale or pre-series AUs. It's all welcome! Clear your calendars, hoodie-timers. I think it's time for a block party.

Fandom Announcements:
There are some other things going on in fandom right now that aren't directly Dean H/C-related, but that you might be interested in:

Fandom will be holding a day of SPN Fandom Wank Amnesty on July 12, dedicated to promoting fandom positivity and friendly fandom experiences for all. Click the link to find out more~

In honor of our upcoming 200th episode, fandom is also putting together a Selfie Project. Represent!

And for our artists in the house, samdean_otp's Sam/Dean Mini-Bang is open for artist sign-ups (deadline: Sept 19), as is the deancasbigbang (deadline: August 16). Click here for DCBB Artist Sign-Ups

Anything else your fellow comm members might be interested in? Post it in the comments!

I'm going to hug you, if that's okay. (I didn't know you mod here!)

HELL YES for the Dean-centric h/c meme! I can't wait!

[kalliel]

AND I SHALL HUG YOU BACK. :Deaaan~<3 /twirls (Haha, that's me! Ever the stealth!mod.)

I'm happy you're excited!!!!! I hope it inspires all kinds of excellent goodies~

[ramblin_rosie]

YAY MEME! I'd just been thinking the other day it's been ages since we had one. :D

[kalliel]

:DDDD YAAAAY indeed! Apparently we haven't had one since before S9 started airing!!!

Yay! Running to go add the new Demon!Dean tag to my Fic right now! Thanks for adding it!

(PS - wish I could have come up with a better name when I started this Fic, but now that it's this far along, the name's stuck! LOL)

[kalliel]

Hey, it's a descriptive name! I LIKE IT. And don't worry about the tagging--I think I got all of yours! ;D Thank you for writinggg. <333

This probably a *really* dumb question, and I deeply apologize in advance, LOL, but I'm new to LJ and have no idea what a "Dean-centric hurt/comfort meme" is! I know a regular meme is like a pic, right? So is this a day to post Dean H/C pics? (again, really sorry for the stupidity!)

[kalliel]

Not stupid at all!!! The Internet is notorious for having the same name for...very different things. XDD In this particular sense, it's basically a fest where people post prompts for art/fic/etc. that are Dean-focused and somehow related to H/C, and then everyone writes little fics or draws things or does whatever it is they do in fandom in response to the prompts. Does that make sense? I can link you an old meme as an example if that'd be more clear.

In any case, I really really love them--it's like a big party!--and I hope to see you there! :DD

[sil9800.livejournal.com]

Thanks so much for explaining that to me, at least now I don't feel quite so stupid, LOL. It sounds like fun too! Looking forward to following along! Hopefully I'll even be able to contribute something. Thanks again and I'll see ya then! :)
