Flower Crown Day Rides Again!

[thisaintbc]

After getting some input from dreamwidth (thank you, DW crowd!) over on the comm, we’re expanding the name to “C6D Flower Crown Day”, so there’s less confusion over what kind of things you can post. (Ride wisely suggested that I should call it "due South/C6D Flower Crown Day", for maximum clarity--the flipside of that is the ~aesthetic~ of C6D vs CKR is similar, and so I'm hesitating solely for that very superficial reason, but I will probably end up taking her very good advice and change it all the way.)

I know we’re running a bit later than last year, but sometimes life comes at you fast and I did not get my act together in January. Right now, I’m considering:

• this Friday, 1/31
• this Saturday, 2/1
• next Friday, 2/7
• next Saturday, 2/8

Any of them should work for me, but what works for you all?

Yay for flower crowns!

Not sure I'll have time for anything -- maybe if people threw plotbunnies at me? in which case the later the date, the better? -- but prob not, so don't delay on my account!

(Also 31st is a really shitty day here, the day we leave the EU, so it would be nice to have due South stuff to escape into.)

Wishing you many Flower Crowns and much pleasant dS "stuff to escape into" so that not all your thoughts will be about the dark day of Brexit.

Thanks, I'm looking forward to the crowns already :)

\o/ flower crowns!

Oohh, your combined thoughts here have given *me* a thought--I don't know how feasible this is or if it would appeal to people at all, but what would you think of the notion of doing, like, an "anti-Brexit kink meme" on the dSVB comm that we ran for, idk, maybe two weeks to a month? I think it wouldn't be too huge of a deal if it overlapped with Flower Crown Day--people mostly do visual things for Flower Crown Day, and since kink memes by their nature are pretty sporadic in terms of timing it could work? Is this a totally absurd idea?

Not sure how many c6d people give a damn about Brexit, but maybe a slightly more generalised "to cheer us up in these dark days" kind of fest would be awesome!

I’m working on making this happen! I’m trying to figure out how to set it up so I won’t end up with too much on my plate, but folks seem interested & fingers crossed it’s happening! \o/
