A Valentine's event to spread the Chubby Deku love!

About

What is a Bang?
A Bang is a fandom event where a writer and an artist work together, creating one fic and one piece of art based on a common theme.
In this event format, the writers pitch in their ideas first. Then the artists receive a list with all the pitches and fill out a form with each idea they’d like to work with. The mods will pair up the writers and artists and give them support to work together creating beautiful fandom works.What is the Sweet and Squishy theme?*
This bang has two main themes. The first one is Chubby Deku. That is the character Izuku Midoriya with the body type overweight/chubby/obese.
The second theme for this bang is Valentine’s Day! This means all the works must be romantic in nature, but the ship/pairing is up to you! This event welcomes all Deku ships.What type of tags/tropes/content will be allowed in the event?
The event will allow any type of fictional work as long as it’s correctly tagged. To make sure no participant is exposed to content they’re not comfortable with, the event will be divided into three different tiers (SFW, NSFW, and Problematic). No one will be expected to work or engage with content from a tier they’re not enrolled in.
How can I join? Do I have to be selected?
Everyone who signs up will join the event! There’s no type of selection at all! This event aims to have as many participants as possible. The works created in the event will be posted for free on the online platforms the participants desire (Ao3, Twitter, Tumblr, BlueSky, etc) so there’s no limitation on the number of people that can be involved.
So anyone can join?
Anyone who is over 18 years old and feels capable of completing the amount of work required in the established schedule can join. See Artists Guide and Writers Guide to know what’s required, and the Schedule to know the dates.
