Midam Appreciation Week 2024
We're so back, baby!
We will once again be celebrating our favourite archangel/just some guy pairing. Come join in the fun!
When? From September 29th through October 5th 2024
What? Let's celebrate by posting fics, art, gifsets, collages, cosplays - or whatever other fan-ish work you want! As long as it focuses on Midam, everything goes.
How?
- Make it Midam (surprise!)
- Tag your stuff with #Midamap2024
- Choose one or several prompts - or don't, and do whatever you want forever. The prompts are suggestions, in case you need inspiration, but they're entirely optional.
- If life kicks you in the ass and you don't make it on the respective day(s) or during the week, post late and tag this blog (@midamappreciationweek)
- No hate! If someone creates something you don't like, avert your eyeballs (however many you have) or do whatever your (lack of) eyesight means you have to do to stop reading. Don't shame people, full stop. Especially not for their ships, their kinks, their writing/art skills etc. This is a celebration, not a competition, and not everything will be catered to your taste.
- Canon-verse, AUs and crossovers are all allowed. Give us Midam meeting Venom and Eddie. Have those two live out a film noir story. Make them meet on an alien planet - or in a coffee shop. Make them dunk on the Winchesters in the bunker. It's up to you.
Prompts:
As pointed out, you don't have to use these, but they're here if you want some inspiration.
September 29th: King / Jewellery / Oath
September 30th: Sigil / Paint / Transmutation
October 1st: Sorcery / Rules / Equilibrium
October 2nd: Monster / Eclipse / Doorway
October 3rd: Sword / Freedom / Sanctuary
October 4th: Blood / Barrier / Sunlight
October 5th: Power / Carnage / Rainbow
What else?
If you have any questions, send an ask to this blog, tag it in a post, or send it a message in a bottle (though depending on where you live, it may take some time for the river or ocean to carry it here).
If you don't have a reply within 24 hours, bonk this blog with a cardboard tube. Probably, notifications aren't working correctly. Possibly, the mod is being slow.
And lastly: Happy Midam-ing!
Tomorrow 👀
RIP Dame Maggie Smith.
She passed away peacefully at 89 on Sept. 27th.
My heart is broken with this one, even though she had a long life and magnificent career. We will always have the gift of her epic performances. ❤️

Midam Week 2024?
So everyone in the Midam corner of the fandom is probably busy with the Midam bang which may post around the same time, but would y'all still be up for another Midam Week this year? (It would be around Adam's birthday again, either the week leading up to it, or starting with the 29th September again.)
