Guidelines for Prompting:

1. You don't have to have a LJ account to prompt! However, we do need your contact information when you fill out the prompt sheet. Please be sure to give us a twitter handle, a kkt/line user, or an email address (if you give us all of these, that would be great too!)
   
2. You don't need to claim a prompt to leave a prompt, or vice versa! Feel free to prompt if you don't intend to claim, and claim if you don't intend to prompt.
   
3. Because our fest is focused on college! and uni! AUs, please be sure that your prompts fit that requirement. At least one member needs to be attending a college or university (whether it's in space or underwater - doesn't matter to us!)
   
4. This fest is open to both OT12 as well as other groups! If you are prompting for another group, please be sure that the main character is an exo member (former or current), and to let us know in the prompt which group that member is from. For example, if you want to leave a prompt for Baekhyun and Taehyung (BTS), here's what your prompt should look like:
   
   pairing: Baekhyun (EXO) /Taehyung (BTS/Bangtan Sonyeondan)
   
   rating: any
   
   prompt: Baekhyun's been looking for a distraction from his History paper for hours now, when he stumbles into his hall's common room to run straight into Taehyung. The two realize they're both trying to distract themselves from the same assignment and instead decide to just work on it together.
   
   extra credit: getting distracted together, cracking jokes, becoming best friends
   
   flunked out: either of them failing their papers, never speaking to one another again
   
   triggers/warnings: n/a
   
   
5. Prompts that have clear triggers are fine, but please label them well. We do not accept prompts that have the following triggers: non/dubcon, and pedophilia.
   
6. Because we are an OT12-accepting fest, we will not stand for Exo-M/China-line bashing. Please do not submit a prompt that has those elements.
   
7. There is such thing as a good and a bad prompt! Make sure that your prompts are not too vague or too specific/restricting. Here are some examples of good and bad prompts:
   
   Good Prompt: Jongdae and Minseok meet one another for the first time during orientation and immediately hit it off. During the week before classes, the two really get to know one another and there might just be a spark.
   
   Bad Prompt 1: Jongdae is a college freshmen who is just looking for a bit of love. When he attends his first college orientation, he meets hottie Minseok, one of the orientation leaders. The two are put in a group together and immediately hit it off, lowkey flirting and getting to know one another through fun exercises and games. When Minseok asks Jongdae out on a date, he can't help but say yes. The two progress through the first few weeks of the year trying to get to know one another better, and possibly feeling a spark that may lead to love. But Jongdae realizes this is Minseok's senior year, and what will he do when the boy leaves him? (this is too specific)
   
   Bad Prompt 2: Jongdae and Minseok think they're falling in love. (this is too vague)
   
   
8. Ot3+ prompts are definitely welcome, so feel free to submit them!
   
9. Feel free to submit as many prompts as you like! Whether that's just one, or 20! Though, if you do submit more than one prompt, be sure to fill out one form for each prompt (if you don't, your prompts may get lost or confused).
   
10. Please be sure to follow all rules above, or else we can't publish your prompt(s) - and we don't want to have to do that!
    
11. If there is anything you're uncertain about or still have questions on, please feel free to either comment down below, tweet @ us, send us a message on ask.fm or send us a message here. We will answer any and all of your questions!
