Hurt/Comfort Exchange is an 18+ ao3 based gift exchange for all fandoms, focusing on ships and gen combos. Participants must create either a story of at least 1000 words, or a piece of artwork that is not on lined paper and is at minimum clean linework that is at least 500x500 pixels. In return, they will receive a story of at least 1000 words, or a piece of artwork that is not on lined paper and is at minimum clean linework that is at least 500x500 pixels.
You must be 18+ to sign up, as requests may include content not suitable for minors.
You cannot sign up with multiple accounts belonging to the same person. You will be asked to delete all additional accounts.
To sign up you must request a minimum of one fandom with one relationship per fandom, and a minimum of one freeform tag. As well as offer a minimum of one fandom with one relationship per fandom and at least one freeform tag. You can request 20 freeforms in the Additional Tags field and then 20 more in the Optional Tags field (though they must be copy and pasted from the tagset, as Optional Tags does not dropdown from the tagset) for a total of 40 freeforms max. You may request the same fandom multiple times.
The exception to the request minimum that if you are pinch hit with less than three unique fandom requests you are not guaranteed a gift. You will be asked if you wish to add additional requests in order to guarantee a gift.
You must be able to create a work for someone else in the exchange. If you are not able to match to and create for anyone you'll be contacted after signups closed and asked if you wish to drop out or add more offers. We encourage you to look through other people's requests before signups close to make sure you can create for someone.
As this is a hurt/comfort themed exchange, your relationship tags will indicate which character(s) are hurt and are in need of comfort and the freeforms will be for specifying the kinds of hurts, types of comforts, and various scenarios you would like to offer or request. If you aren't sure what specifics you would like, the tagset will include "Hurt/Comfort" as an option.
Archive Warnings are to be considered Opt-In rather than opt out for DNWs.
No AI generated content.
This exchange has four stages: Nominations, Signups, Assignments, Reveals
