DCJ Hiatus Indulgence
General Challenge Info: DCJ Hiatus Indulgence
This year’s theme is established relationships. We’re looking for any stories that deal with Dean, Cas, and Jimmy being in a loving, stable relationship. Are they adopting kids? Dealing with the struggles of how to behave in public? Celebrating anniversaries? Sky’s the limit!
Rules
Your story and/or art must have Dean, Cas, and Jimmy already in a relationship by the time the story starts.
Writers must submit stories that are at least 1k and artists must submit at least one piece of art.
Main ship has to be Dean/Cas/Jimmy
There can be other ships but the main ship should be DCJ
Any other side pairings are fine, just be sure to tag them!
No RPF or RPS.
All major warnings must be tagged in your summary, and cannot be subsequently changed .
Major warnings are: Rape/Non Con, Dub Con, Underage, Major Character Death, Graphic Depictions of Violence; Suicide/Self-harm, Torture, Bestiality, Addiction
Underage must be tagged
No extreme underage in sexual situations (under 13)
No extreme age gaps if one of the characters is underage (no 14 years olds with 28 year olds for example)
Mentions of past underage abuse/involvement is acceptable as long as there is none shown “on screen”
No art may depict minors being sexualized or in sexual situations.
- There is no age restriction for this challenge. HOWEVER… we will not except content of an explicit nature from anyone under the age of 18.
Crossovers allowed, DCJ must be the main focus though
Must be an original work not posted anywhere else before posting to this challenge. It’s fine if you started writing the work before the challenge began, as long as it’s never been shared publicly.
You should be creating a brand new story and not part something that’s part of a series. Once the challenge is done you can turn your story into a series (it’s your work after all!), but the work you submit must be complete and able to stand on its own at posting time.
This is not a collaborative project. There are no art claims. You can sign up as an author or an artist and you can find other authors or artists to work with if you wish, but that isn’t a requirement of this challenge.
You may create art for your own story
