Welcome to Dispatch Fest, where the netizens have taken the couple reveals into their own hands.All fics for this fest will center boy group x girl group ships or co-ed ships.Dispatch Fest is not a true formal fic "fest", but fic event for cross-group or co-ed ships in K-Pop RPF.There is no word count minimum to be added to the collection. You could write "Wonwoo and Seulgi kiss." as a fic and we'd let it slide. Beautiful work.Fics will be revealed starting in June through the end of the year. Rumors are as sporadic as the muse, and our rolling deadline honors both.There are no restrictions on content so long as the main pairing is between a girl group member and a boy group member.All fics must be tagged appropriately and to the best of the ability of the writer.
DISPATCH FEST
Please note that the "rules" are very loose and ever-evolving. This isn't a real fest, but a promotion for a fic collection + K-Pop RPF event.
Q. How do I sign up?
A. No formal sign up! Just write a fic and submit it to the collection.Q. When are fics due?
A. By the end of the year. We will RT your promotion tweets and post fics in batches. :)Q. Are genderbent/Rule 63/cisswap or nonbinary/trans interpretations of idols allowed?
A. Yes! However, keep in mind that main ships in this fest must be a cross-group pairing.So while, for example, Sana/trans Mingyu would be an qualified pairing, R63 Yoongi/Johnny would not qualify.Q. Can I write a PLATONIC pairing (e.g. secret siblings; everyone thinks we're dating, etc.)?
A. Absolutely!Q. Do co-ed groups (e.g. KARD; Triple H) qualify?
A. Yes!Q. Can I write a fic with a non-idol (such as a Western celeb)?
A. Go for it!Q. Can I write Y/N, self-insert, or OC fic for this event?
A. Not for this event - though chase your bliss!For other questions, please email [email protected] or send a DM on Twitter (@dispatchfest).
