And this Renard fan is really, really hoping that he had his brains messed with by Bonaparte or Diana, and that this recent characterization is not a total fail on behalf of the writers.
If we have to have evil!Sean, I would like him to have brains and a damn spine, like you say.
Have you read the comic Renard’s Reckoning? It’s almost the same story, except Renard kills the gang boss out of his own free will and takes control of the city in the most epic way.
That comic is how this storyline should have gone down, and I think it was the inspiration for it as Renard also kills a ‘friend’ to further his own ends.
(And I assume you mean Conrad Bonaparte, not Sebastien. Sebastien was one of Renard’s ‘friends’ who was killed by Viktor whilst he and Meisner were trying to get Adalind and Diana out of Austria.)
Greeting Grimmsters!
The Grimm Summer Ficathon starts in just two days, so here are some finalized guidelines for you to keep in mind as you get ready to post some amazing stories. For future reference, you can find this and other relevant Ficathon information in the links on our Keeping the Hiatus Grimm page.
How It Works
Throughout the summer, FYNB will be accepting prompt ideas for the ficathon. Please submit your prompt ideas to the ask box. Submissions can be anonymous, but if you would like to get credit for your prompt, submit it publicly or sign your ask with the name you prefer to be given credit under.
On the first Friday of each month, I will post a list of prompts: one for each week in that month. From the moment the prompts are posted, the ficathon is on!
Fics may be posted anywhere. However, in order for fics to be reblogged to FYNB, they must be posted to tumblr as a text post or link post and tagged grimmsummerficathon2016 along with the number of the week (for instance, week 1).
In order for your submission to show up in the tag, it must be among the first five tags on your post.
Admin Liza here to help kick off this hiatus with a bang…er, so to speak.
As any of you who’ve been following FYNB for a while probably know, fanfiction is my passion. If there’s ever a fic-centric thing of any kind on FYNB, I’m probably the one behind it, because there is nothing I love more than the idea of a massive group of people coming together around a single story and weaving their own mythologies out of it. It’s magical to me, seriously.
Ahem. Anyway, instead of a fic rec or liveblog every Friday this year of pre-existing fics, I thought it might be fun to do a series of fic weeks. And as always, I’d love to have your input and recommendations, so keep reading for the details!
How It Works
On the first Friday of every month, I will post a list of the topics for each week in that month. That way, you can choose ahead of time which weeks you’d like to participate in.
I’ll begin reblogging posts from the tumblr tag for week one starting at the end of week one. But if you don’t manage to get something in for week one, don’t worry! You have all month.
Note: Please make sure you tag appropriately for warnings and triggers on anything you add to the tag, whatever platform you choose to use. I understand that fanfiction is often used to explore a lot of difficult topics and themes, but I also want to make sure the Grimm fandom is a safe place for everyone.
Topic Submissions
I only have a few topics in mind thus far, so if anyone would like to contribute ideas for a topic, please feel free to send them to FYNB via the ask box.
Anonymous submissions are welcome, but if you would like to get credit for your idea, send it under your username and I’ll tag you in the post for that week!
Topic idea submissions are welcome as long as there are weeks in the hiatus that we don’t have a topic for.
Fic Submissions
Please do not submit your fics to our inbox! Post them on your favorite fic locale (AO3, FFN, LiveJournal, Dreamwidth, etc) and post a link to tumblr. You can also post the fic directly on tumblr as text.
Please tag all links/fic posts with “grimmsummerficathon2016” and “week 1,” “week 2,” etc. Make sure these two tags are among the first five tags on your post.
I will also be creating a collection on AO3 for anyone posting there! More about that as the start of the first week grows closer.
Questions? Concerns? Come on into the ask box, I got you!
Tonight will be the first Friday night without a new episode of Grimm, and thus the official start of the hiatus. And if you’re like me, that means the painful reality is slowly setting in that we’ll have to wait FIVE MONTHS to find out what’s next for Team Grimm.
But don’t lose all hope just yet! We’ve got a lot of neat things planned for the hiatus this year, all dedicated to giving you the Grimm Fix you crave (and giving all of us admins a chance/excuse to dive into the things about Grimm we love the most)!
So be sure to track our hiatus tags “keeping the hiatus grimm” and “grimm hiatus 2016,” or check out the link at the top of the blog for more Grimm goodness all summer long!
Unfortunately, my computer is getting really old and likes to do things like freeze and crash when I try to run Photoshop for too long at a time. So it might take a while to fill this request. But I’ll do my best to fill it! In the meantime, I have made a few gifs from the ep and a lot of others have as well, so check out this tag to see what I’ve reblogged/giffed already from the episode! ❤
I KNOW ANON I KNOW. I’M STILL EMOTIONAL ABOUT IT. THE WAY HE LOOKS AT HER. THE WAY SHE LOOKS AT HIM. THE WAY HE CARRIES HER AWAY FROM DANGER. THE WAY HE REVEALS ONE OF HIS BIGGEST SECRETS IN ORDER TO SAVE HER. HIM. HER. I CAN’T OKAY. I CAN’T.
