Curate, connect, and discover
Please Note. Following implications of the behaviour of a certain previously-credible author and its affect on the queer community, we will no longer be reblogging fills from within the Harry Potter fandom. We never wanted to make this a political environment, but this has gone beyond politics. The money raised by this woman through HP is actively going into fighting against the rights of trans folks, and we refuse to support anything to do with her. While I understand this may be upsetting to some, the mod team here is entirely under the trans* spectrum, and we would rather not have to engage with anything to do with her. Trans rights are human rights.
Note: From the end of April, we will no longer be reblogging fills from Pride Edition Cards. The AO3 collection will remain open indefinitely, however, and any Tumblr post that fills Pride or earlier prompts and any prompt from a later edition will still be reblogged on those grounds. This means that posts covering exclusively Pride prompts or earlier will no longer be reblogged <3
Now, on to May! In honour of mental health awareness month, it's time to show your inner crazy. As always, this is a good-faith event, and individual experiences are subjective when they feed into our works. With that in mind, however, any fills explicitly hating on certain disorders or those who struggle with them will not be reblogged. With that in mind, please welcome Madness May!
- Turnaround time is hopefully no longer than a week. If you've been waiting longer than this, please feel free to reach out!
- Feel free to interpret the prompts however you wish - the world is your oyster! <3 Note: Terms with a stereotypically applied gender (e.g 'Princess', 'king') are not gender-restricted! Some things are just hard to make gender-neutral, especially in limited space. Gimmie those boy princesses and nb kings to your hearts content. <3
- No restriction to one prompt per fic/chapter.
- You can merge this event with others, so long as the other event permits this.
- Please mark rating clearly, and use CW where applicable. Posts not adequately marked will not be reblogged. We love you folks, and all the work you produce, but we get a lot of reblogs and have lives outside the event - we don't always have the time to be chasing down ratings or fandoms ;-;
- Use the tags #FandomFreeBingo and #Fandom Free Bingo: Madness May, and tag @fandom-free-bingo on tumblr for a reblog - don't forget to also add in the pairing/characters, rating, the fandom and the warnings in the tags please <3
- Madness May sign ups will run until May 31st, 2025. Feel free to post after this date, however - works will be reblogged until April 30th, 2026, and the Ao3 collection will be open indefinitely.
- A maximum of FOUR cards per participant.
- This season we are offering BOTH 5x5 and 3x3 cards - please let us know which you would like!
- All media forms, fandoms and original works are welcome!
- You can request square changes twice (of any number), for up to a week after the card is issued.
- Be respectful to other participants.
- Be kind to us!
- Ao3 collection can be found here!
We also have a Discord!

Hi all! Soooo, March edition will be released at the usual time of midnight on the 28th/1st, but there will be no cards delivered until the evening of the 3rd (at the earliest, depending on where you are in the queue). I apologise for those of you that love getting your cards ASAP, but I'll be with my partner, and as much as y'all are great, I don't get a huge amount of time with them, soooo…. Y'all can wait a few days <3 <3 <3 We're hoping to be caught up by the end of the week (9th) though! Because we're going away again for the weekend Have an excellent end to February! <3
That's right! Many of you know and love @42donotpanic (and if you run a bingo yourself, you'll definitely be familiar with the name...), and now they're a part of the team! Hopefully this will ease the pressure on us, and we're super grateful for the help! They're already churning out cards at a ridiculous pace!
Welcome aboard, Panic! It's great to have you!
