Mockingjay's Screams

2024 Snowbaird AU Fest

Day Four: District 13

Lucy Gray and Coriolanus make it to District 13, but it turns out to be another game for survival.

So they need to win.

Ok will make a proper introduction post later but the essential is that I ( @burntblueberrywaffles ) was talking about fandom events with the Snowbaird discord besties and got way too excited so…. here’s a shiny new blog!!

2024 Snowbaird AU Fest

Day Two: Wolves

Humans are no more, but there are survivors: descendants of once uncivilized beasts of the woods, mountains, swamps, waters and deserts, are now the dominant species. The wolves especially.

Lucy Gray is from the mountains but had to survive the treacherous valley packs, and her one potential ally is a golden wolf Coriolanus.

Only one week before the start of our Valentine event!! (See pinned post for all the info l!)

You can upload uncensored art on ao3! (I see in the notes that someone offered to give you an ao3 invite, so hopefully things work out on that end!) 🫶

Many people don’t know this, but the archive is actually open to all type of fanworks, fanfic is just the predominant one because they don’t host images directly within the servers, which means you need to use an external image host - since my friend had the same problem I am now doing a ✨public service announcement✨ here’s a tutorial for anyone wondering how to upload art on ao3! 🫡

The first thing you want to do is find an image host website! This is the one I always use, but it is in French, so if you prefer, you can probably find some in English by searching up "free image hosting"

The images you sent there are only visible if you have the exact link, so no worries about random people seeing it! For anyone who doesn’t want to bother finding a different website, here’s how to use the one I linked: you’ll want to click on the "Parcourir" button, and then select the picture of your choice, when that’s done, you can click on the big "valider" button! Once your image is hosted, they’ll offer you different version of the link, you want to grab the one in the second row, which will be your direct image link.

Next, in ao3, you want to paste this template,

<img src="LINK">

add the link to it, and normally your art should be good to go!! (Note: DONT remove the quotation marks!)

noooooo my snowbaird smut week post got flagged :( what do i do
