2025 Round Conclusion & Feedback

We revealed author names at the Once Upon 2025 Collection last week. Feel free to promote what you wrote in any space you like! We hope you enjoyed contributing to and also reading this year's stories. We did!

We wanted to bring up an issue for feedback while we're all still thinking about the exchange.

Once Upon a Fic is a "fairy-tale" focused exchange. We welcome a lot of texts - myths, lore, etc - that overlap with fairy tales in some way: they deal with archetypal figures, life lessons, fantastical creatures and/or the supernatural, they are often more closely associated with a culture and era than a specific author, and of course, as a goal of this event specifically, these texts are in the public domain.

Every year we get nominations that seek to expand that pool of text types in ways we hadn't thought of. Because more things enter the public domain every year, we've seen more and more longer texts, from closer in time, than the fairy tales the exchange started out with. These nominations are in good faith and we've enjoyed the stories that come from them, but we worry about scope creep and we aren't always sure where to draw the line. In order to keep the exchange focus narrower than "any kind of fantastical text in the public domain", we wanted to revisit what kinds of texts are in scope, with the hope that our rules are clearer before next round.

Some possible options:
  • We give examples of the types of texts that we consider core to the exchange. All other texts are evaluated on a case-by-case basis. This is the status quo - but we haven't always decided consistently, from year to year. For example, sometimes we've included stories made freely available by their creators for more modern tales. But that makes it difficult for us to define a modern fairy tale vs any fantastical story.
  • We give examples of the types of texts that we consider core to the exchange. We encourage you to make a case for anything that doesn't match the examples. The case could be based on factors such as similarity to types of canons we've previously approved; length; whether it was marketed as a fairy tale, etc.
  • We set specific requirements for anything published after a specific date eg 1900 or 1925 (which may include a max length requirement).
  • We set a strict date cut-off for certain types of nominations.
  • Something else?


We welcome suggestions and would be interested to know what feels in scope to you, for a fairy tale exchange, and what doesn't. Approving a nomination into this exchange isn't a value judgment on that piece of media.

Thanks for your thoughts! Feedback on other parts of the exchange is welcome!

death note / fem!meronia -- lost & found

Title: lost & found

Fandom: Death Note

Rating: T

This time, Near finds her quickly. Mello has barely had time to unzip her duffel before the knock at the door. The cadence of the sound is unmistakable.

A small thrill of pleasure runs through her. The whole point of running off is to be caught; Near is excellent at finding her.


She changes into cotton boxers and a thin tank before answering, intentionally forgoing a bra. Near stares; Mello lets her. The July air rolls into the room, heat so heavy she thinks she might choke. They both want.


“C’mon,” she tells Near. “You’re letting out all the cold.”

FFA DW Post #2299 - So fucking tired of spiders shilling for In N Out

 
It’s every damn day with those things.

I’m tired of waking up to spiderwebs that read “but the value,” “fresh patties tho,” “the fries aren’t actually that bad,” and “you just don’t get it”
