HP Cest Mini-Fest 2022 ☕️ 📖 🎨 🎙

Guess what, fam! The Cest Party is NOT over!!

What is HP Cest Mini-Fest?

Since we have over 150 prompts for HP Cest Fest left unfulfilled, we'd love to give you all the opportunity to create for them!

We have created the HP Cest Mini-Fest 2022 collection for anyone and everyone to create their own Cest works based on the remaining available 2022 prompts! It will be a self-posting event and non-anonymous, allowing you to upload your AO3 works on your own to the collection. You do not need to add the Mod AO3 account as co-creator.

Available unclaimed prompts can be found HERE! Please DO NOT use our prompts and post outside of the fest. Exception: your prompts are your own to do with what you wish within or outside of this fest.

Schedule

Your self-posted works may be uploaded to the above collection from November 1st - January 15th. They will be added to the collection when approved by a Mod.

HOWEVER... in honor of No Post November - a campaign to create awareness and combat purity culture in fandom - the collection will remain UNREVEALED until December 1st.

Mini-Fest Rules and Voluntary Anonymity details can be found below the cut!

🌟 H.S.S. Rare Pairs 2022 FAQ 🌟

Find out more info in our Rules & Schedule post!

🎁 What is H.S.S. Rare Pairs? 🎁

H.S.S. Rare Pairs stands for HP Secret Santa Rare Pairs! We are an anon, multi-ship, multimedia gift exchange focused on HP rare pairs run as a collaboration between the HP Rare Pairs and HP SAFFICS (18+) Discord servers. This fest is not self-posting. The mods will post your gifts all through December.

🎁 What counts as a HP rare pair? 🎁

Any ships besides these common ships (LITERALLY ANY OTHER SHIP IS OKAY):

  • Dramione - Hermione Granger/Draco Malfoy
  • Drarry - Draco Malfoy/Harry Potter
  • Hinny - Harry Potter/Ginevra Weasley
  • Jily - James Potter/Lily Evans Potter
  • Snarry - Harry Potter/Severus Snape
  • Wolfstar - Sirius Black/Remus Lupin

🎁 How is the list of common ships determined? 🎁

Any ship with less than 10K results in an unfiltered AO3 Relationship tag search AND less than 3K results in an “otp: true” filtered Relationship tag AO3 search is considered a rare pair!

This means, using the Relationship tag search function, a ship hitting these two benchmarks will qualify as a common pair:

  • Over 10K fics where the ship is included as a listed pairing, AND
  • Over 3K fics where the ship is “otp: true”

🎁 What about polyamorous ships? 🎁

Polyamorous ships (triads, vees, quads, polycules, etc.) are always considered rare and are VERY welcome!

🎁 Who can participate? 🎁

Anyone aged 18+ can participate. We also encourage you to be part of the HP Rare Pairs Discord Server, although it is not required.

🎁 What is the 2022 Schedule? 🎁

Sign-ups: Sep 10-Sep 30 Matching: by Oct 5 Work on Gifts: Oct 5-Nov 25 Call for Pinch-hitters: Late Nov Gift Giving: Dec 1-Dec 25 Creator Reveals: Dec 30

🎁 What kind of gifts can I create? 🎁

All HP rare pair-themed gifts are accepted! That includes: fics, ficlets, drabbles, craft gifts, art works, gif sets, story banners, moodboards, photo manips, vids, podfics, podfic cover art, meta, icons, poems, recipes, playlists, rec lists — basically, any type of fanwork you can think of!

🎁 Can I recycle fannish works as gifts? 🎁

No, gifts must be new and created exclusively for H.S.S. Rare Pairs 2022 and specifically for your giftee.

🎁 Does my gift need to be X-mas/winter themed? 🎁

No, it can be any theme as long as it includes a rare pair.

🎁 How many gifts will I get? 🎁

Every participant will receive at least 2 gifts. They may be small gifts and they may not be exactly what you wished for but they will be made with love and enthusiasm.

🎁 How many gifts do I need to create to be able to participate? 🎁

You must submit at least 1 gift in order for Santa to deliver your gifts. Participants are implored encouraged to submit more than one gift.

🎁 Can I submit my gifts anonymously? 🎁

Yes, you may choose to submit your gifts anonymously. In this case you will not be named as a giftmaker in the Creator Reveals on Dec 30. Please tell the mods your preference when signing up.

🎁 How do I submit/deliver my gifts? 🎁

Gifts should be uploaded to the H.S.S. Rare Pairs 2022 AO3 Collection or emailed directly to [email protected]. See the post about Submission Info HERE.

🎁 Who are the mods? 🎁

🎁 I still have questions/want to find out more. What should I do? 🎁

🎁 Sign-Ups and Matching 🎁

  • Sign-ups are open Sep 10-Sep 30 through Google Forms (HERE)

  • The sign-up form will have separate sections for preferences on receiving and giving gifts. Both sections are required.
  • The mods will match you with another participant based on favorite ships and interests.

🎁 Gifts and Pinch-Hitters 🎁

  • Gifts should be uploaded to the AO3 Collection or emailed directly to [email protected]. See the Submission Info HERE!
  • Gifts are due Nov 25! If you are unable to finish your gift in time, please let us know ASAP, so we can find a pinch-hitter.
  • Keep a lookout in late November when we will do a call for pinch-hitters!

🎁 Gift Delivery and Creator Reveals 🎁

  • Gifts will be delivered Dec 1-Dec 25 by Santa and his helpers (aka the very excited mods).
