Wow, I am so sorry for this delay, it took much more effort than I thought it would to acquire a spare laptop. At any rate, we're here now, so yay! Below the cut you will find both the absolute 100% final team lists - please check them firmly - and this olympic's themes. :D

And now, the themes! There are exactly 10 themes. Remember that it is first come, first served. To claim a theme, please comment below in your team's thread. Do NOT reply to this entry directly to claim a theme (altho you may do so to comment on other matters or ask questions)!

If you're curious about where the themes came from, a post exists HERE on my personal journal giving explanations and sources. :)

Please remember that you will be abiding by the comm rules when it comes to posting, ratings, threesomes & moresomes (that is, we have decided to allow pairings of kuro/fai+others, so long as kurogane and fai are the focal point of the fic.

Themes will be available until Monday morning! If you haven't picked a theme by then, I'll just randomly assign you whatever's left, so make sure you get in while the getting's good. And remember - have fun! It's perfectly ok to heckle and cheerlead each other in the comments! Writing will start on the 17th of February, and posting will commence from March 10th-March 20th (inclusive). On the 17th, I will be putting up your posting schedules and some ground rules, along with other info like the voting criteria. When you pick your theme, please let me know if you will not be around to post your fic at any point from March 10th to March 20th so I can position you accordingly on the schedule!

Good luck, everybody, and have fun!

Edit: We are waiting for perfectworry to check in! Posting schedules will be available soon.

[caffeine_buzz]

Last year I didn't get online 'til nearly last pick, this year I get nearly first pick :D If no one minds, I'll take 'Ghost in the machine.'

Re: Team Future Theme Claim Thread

[mikkeneko]

We shall be... RIVALS. *shounen theme song in bg*

Re: Team Future Theme Claim Thread

[reikah]

Vengeance is a dish best served cold for me~

Re: Team Future Theme Claim Thread

[eijentu]

/sticks a flag into 'through a glass darkly'

Re: Team Future Theme Claim Thread

[reikah]

I'm not sure you can stick flags in mirrors like that, it sounds painful o.o

I see you

[shachaai]

So, Jo, bb - handbags at dawn?

Re: Team Future Theme Claim Thread

[mindlessadri]

So I'm torn between the prompts 'drifting in the echos' and the 'watcher on the walls'. I'm actually at work right now so if I could just have a few hours to think over the prompts that would be really cool. See I'll take either of them if somebody is REALLY jonzin' for one of those but having time to contemplate them a bit more would be nice.

Re: Team Future Theme Claim Thread

[mindlessadri]

like really a half hour at most

Re: Team Future Theme Claim Thread

[little_echo]

Aaaaah, I just saw the themes and if no one minds I'll pick "Here be dragons."

BECAUSE I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT I'M GOING TO DO WITH THIS HAHAHA!

Re: Team Future Theme Claim Thread

[reikah]

+FOUR THOUSAND VOTES FOR DRAGONS

my icon keywords may be accurate here :x

Re: Team Future Theme Claim Thread

[rinoa11]

Claiming " dreaming unspeakable dreams "!

Re: Team Future Theme Claim Thread

[down]

We are on RIVAL TEAMS~ but not rival themes. XD (I was tempted by 'here be dragons' but hey, I am a dragon! ALL MY FIC therefore has IMPLIED dragons. XD)

In what way are these dreams unspeakable? *eyebrows*

Re: Team Future Theme Claim Thread

[atomherrerin]

ok ok, i think ... um ... "between the devil and the deep blue sea"

so excited!!!!!

Re: Team Future Theme Claim Thread

[mindlessadri]

I made a decision I would like to do the Watcher on the Wall

Re: Team Future Theme Claim Thread

[misskirichan]

I'd like to claim either 'drifting in the echoes' or 'not all who wander are lost.' I'm fine with either, so if someone has their heart set on one, I'll be happy to take whichever is left over.

Re: Team Future Theme Claim Thread

[sotongsotong]

*puts one the biggest, googliest puppy dog eyes possible*

May I have 'not all who wander are lost'? pleaswe please pretty please with a cherry on top? :'3

Re: Team Future Theme Claim Thread

[sotongsotong]

If misskirrichan is okay with it, I'd like to stake claim on 'not all who wander are lost'? :)


And the prompts seem pretty familiar, like the name of fanfics a certain Kurofai Olympics host has done (*w*)b

Re: Team Future Theme Claim Thread

[misskirichan]

That is a-okay with me! ;)

In that case, I'd like to officially claim 'drifting in the echoes.'

Re: Team Future Theme Claim Thread

[mindlessadri]

I was torn between these two and the one I eventually decided on so I'm really excited to see what you two can come up with!

Re: Team Future Theme Claim Thread

[reikah]

wait what which olympics host

Re: Team Future Theme Claim Thread

[animangod]

I am going to go magically medieval on your heiney.

Re: Team Future Theme Claim Thread

[bottan]

OH FUCK, I WENT TO BED LIKE 10 MINUTES BEFORE PROMPTS WENT UP. *hands*

Okay, looks like "stars go out tonight" is the one left.

...I'll take it if it comes to that. But, PLEASE, if anyone considers swapping, tell me, cause that's THE ONE THEME I feel completely uninspired for. XD; (Only "dragons" would be worse, for reasons. >.>)

Re: Team Future Theme Claim Thread

[little_echo]

"I went to bed while important stuff in the fandom happened" is pretty much the story of my life and the curse of those who live in our timezone. >_>

Re: Team Future Theme Claim Thread

[bottan]

I announce thus that the gorgeous eijentu was willing to swap themes with me (THANK YOU SO MUCH, BB!!) and that I'm thus writing for "through a glass darkly." :DDD

*is too happy to express*
