Hello and welcome back to our third year running! B l o o m i n G y u - Book III event has started!

It's an event in which authors and readers alike can gather to celebrate Infinite's leader, Kim Sunggyu. Diversity in pairings is encouraged! Authors are free to choose not only a member from Infinite they want to pair up with Sunggyu, but also people from other groups, actors, and athletes. As long as it’s a male pairing, anything goes!

1. If you choose to feature a pairing, it must involve a male and Kim Sunggyu.
   • Stories with more than one person x Sunggyu are also accepted (OT3s, polyamory, , etc.).
2. Minimum word count for stories is 1,500.
3. You MUST provide a prompt in order to sign up.
   • The prompt that you sign up with does not have to be the one you have to write; you can change your prompt as many times as you want without the need to notify an admin. So long as your fic is finished and turned in by the deadline, it's fine.
4. Please avoid triggering prompts. Ex. suicide, , ual violence.
   • If you feel its unavoidable, please add explicit trigger warning.
5. With the above said, any other prompt is fair game.
6. There is no restriction on rating. From innocent friendship to ual roleplay, it's all welcomed!
7. A flower-themed nickname will be assigned to the writers to maintain their anonymity.
8. If at all possible, please have your fic beta'd.
9. Deadline is April 22, 2018.*

Given the short time constraint, things may feel a bit rushed, but the event will span around four months.

We are requiring a prompt mostly to know that no one is coming in blindly and have at least an idea to start with. You won't be shackled to the idea you provide at all. You're welcomed to change it as you see fit. We encourage you to challenge yourself! Try to go for a genre that’s always interested you but you’ve been unable to do, or even go for a dip in the sultry side. Not only is this an event for Kim Sunggyu, but also for writers to allow themselves to challenge their comfort zones in writing! Still interested?We look forward to all the wonderful stories that will be born from this event.
