 | July 2nd, 2025 07:10 pm - Check-In Post - July 2nd 2025
Hello to all members, passers-by, curious onlookers, and shy lurkers, and welcome to our regular daily check-in post. Just leave a comment below to let us know how your current projects are progressing, or even if they're not. Checking in is NOT compulsory, check in as often or as seldom as you want, this community isn't about pressure it's about encouragement, motivation, and support. Crafting is meant to be fun, and what's more fun than sharing achievements and seeing the wonderful things everyone else is creating? There may also occasionally be questions, but again you don't have to answer them, they're just a way of getting to know each other a bit better. This Week's Question: What do you like to listen to / watch while crafting? If anyone has any questions of their own about the community, or suggestions for tags, questions to be asked on the check-in posts, or if anyone is interested in playing check-in host for a week here on the community, which would entail putting up the daily check-in posts and responding to comments, go to the Questions & Suggestions post and leave a comment. I now declare this Check-In OPEN! Current Mood:: tired

 | July 1st, 2025 06:38 pm - Sherlock Holmes: A lesson to live by RatTale
Fandom: Sherlock Holmes (tagged both Books and Granada) Pairings/Characters: Holmes & Watson Rating: T Length: 2743 words Creator Links: RatTale Theme: working together Summary: After a long day of seeing patients, Doctor Watson is on his way home when he gets pulled into an alleyway to help one more patient for the night. Reccer's Notes: When Watson has an unexpected patient, in an unexpected place, Holmes gets roped into helping. They have to work together for the benefit of the patient. It's very nice to read a story where Watson is the competent medical professional and is the one in charge instead of Holmes. Fanwork Links: AO3

 | July 1st, 2025 09:01 am - Guardian Bonus Bingo July Prompts
Greetings Guardian Bingo Participants! Somehow we have already made it through one month of Bonus Bingo and July is upon us. New prompts are listed below.
If you missed out on June, no worries! You can join the fest at any point. You can turn in fills for months you missed during our November grace period month. July (I) Prompts:Cake | Reconciliation | EmergencyAs with last month, you only need to create for one of these prompts to earn a fill for this month, though you’re welcome to create more if you feel so inspired.
While the fest account is located on Tumblr, you don't have to be a Tumblr user to participate or to earn a badge at the end of the fest. (Filling one prompt per month over five months is what matters for earning the badge, not where you post your fills.) - This is a low-stress fest. The point is to create fan works and have fun.
- All modes of creation are accepted!
- All ratings, all ships, rpf, Weilan derivatives, and even works based on other Priest novels are accepted. Please tag accordingly.
- While each month will have three prompts listed, you only need to create for one prompt to earn a fill for that month. (You are, however, welcome to complete or combine all of them if you wish.)
- Prompts are inspiration only – follow them as strictly or as loosely as you’d like
- No min/max content requirements.
- No works created using generative AI
AO3 Collection - You may also post in other places (tumblr, Dreamwidth, etc.) If you @ our tumblr account, we’ll happily reblog your fill. Let us know if you have any questions. Have fun and happy creating! June (B): Chase | Door Key | Respite July (I): Cake | Reconciliation | Emergency

Title: Pages for You Fandom: Guardian (TV) Rating: T-rated Length: 1,767 words Notes: Title from a novel by Sylvia Brownrigg. Much thanks to trobadora for beta. <3 Tags: Shen Wei/Zhao Yunlan, Post-Canon, Everyone Lives AU, Established Relationship, Domesticity, Fade to Black Summary: Over the course of the evening, an impulse had taken root, and now Shen Wei submitted to it. He switched on his desk lamp, laid out several large sheets of paper and quietly ground some ink.
