Four weeks! Around now, our blood would be well into the decomposition process, and our organs would start accumulating gas - exciting!
The exquisite tomarrymort corpse won't let that stop it from shambling along, however. No worries!
Our third murderer (participant) has been contacted. Let's send a battle cry their way and again applaud the hard work of our second fearless participant 😌

Two weeks have passed by us already!
The exquisite tomarrymort corpse still drags its way along - maybe if you squint and turn your head a bit to the right, you'll notice it taking shape... is that a left pinky finger?
Well, anyway, our second murderer (participant) was contacted only a short while ago. Let's wish them well in their upcoming murderous designs and applaud the hard work of our first one 😌

Happy April 1st! The exquisite tomarrymort corpse has officially begun!
I have contacted our starting murderer (participant) and will start going down the timeline as the weeks progress. So excited to see what we all come up with together!

Please feel free to contact me with any questions or consult our event breakdown post here.
The event will officially start on April 1st!
After the first person has completed their contribution of the corpse, the second person will be contacted on April 15th and given the last five lines of the fic or a cropped portion of the fanart. This chain will continue until the corpse inevitably finishes on January 21st.
The corpse will be posted shortly after! It should be up for everyone's viewing pleasure by January 27th.
A gentle reminder that if anything arises in the meantime that changes your availability, please let me know as soon as you can. With enough notice, we can make a quick and painless swap with someone further down the list. This way, everyone still gets to participate.
Thank you, participants, for your patience! Let's go out there and make a most exquisite tomarrymort corpse.

Event Breakdown
Now that all participants have submitted their forms, we will move on to the next course of action. The event will continue as follows:
All participants who are comfortable going first will be added to a randomiser. Once a starting person has been selected, those comfortable going last will be randomised. I will reach out to the selected first and last people and confirm if their estimated date range works for them - if the date range doesn't work for one or both, I will restart the process until both parties confirm. When all is settled, the remaining participants will be randomised, assigned a date range, and reached out to. After each participant has agreed with their dates, the Timeline will be posted. To keep things simple, the event will officially start on April 1st! After the first person has completed their contribution of the corpse, the second person will be contacted at the beginning of their date range and given the last 5 lines of the fic or a cropped portion of the fanart. This chain will continue until the corpse inevitably finishes (decays).
Outreach Timeframe
Below are the deadlines for outreach and date range confirmation:
March 6th - The first and last randomised participants will be contacted. They will have until March 8th to confirm their date range. March 8th - If one or both participants cannot do their date range, alternate people will be selected. They will have until March 10th to confirm their date range. March 13th - All other randomised participants will be contacted. Because this group will be much larger and may need more changes, they will have until March 27th to confirm their date ranges. March 29th - The official Timeline will be posted. April 1st - The event begins! The first person shall start the exquisite tomarrymort corpse and have two weeks to finish and submit their contribution. This pattern will continue and repeat until the corpse finishes (decays).
Submission Requirements
Free Rein is still in play - however, to maintain consistency, here are a few things requested of each participant:
- All writing participants must submit their contributions of the corpse via Google Docs. Doing so will help keep everything consistent, easily mergeable, and manageable when transitioning to AO3. - All fanart participants must submit their contributions of the corpse with a Link to their art. Doing so will help with image embedding when transitioning to AO3. - All writing and fanart participants should edit their fics/panels for proper spelling, punctuation, and grammar to the best of their ability. If you can't, please contact a beta reader for editing.
Optional Guidelines
Quick shoutout to Flaky over in our newly minted discord server, they helped put this into words quite nicely--
If complete creative freedom is overwhelming with us now officially transitioning into "Free Rein", here are some guidelines you can follow but don't necessarily have to: - Aim for 500 to 2k words; or 1 fanart scene with a small amount of dialogue to 3 scenes with no dialogue (no pressure). - Here are some randomised words to help inspire you: hands, ragged, speak, gullible, ick -- can't even make this up. - If all else fails, pick a classic Tomarrymort trope: Time Travel, Dark Harry, Soulmates, Harry and Tom Grow Up Together, Forced Proximity, Voldemort Wins, etc. - Don't focus on making a cohesive story; that's the last thing we want. Review the portion sent to you, and just create until you feel things have suitably gotten out of hand or until you think you've confused the person after you well enough. - Keep in mind that the ultimate goal is to have fun. (And submit what will likely be the most extraordinary Tomarrymort AO3 story that ever was, of course.) If you aren't having fun, please reach out; I'll do everything in my power to help you have fun.
Final Notes
From my rough calculations - the event will finish sometime on or before December 23rd. Now, this is a long timeframe. If anything arises in the meantime that changes your availability, please let me know as soon as you can. With enough notice, we may be able to make a quick and painless swap with someone further down the list. This way, everyone still gets to participate. Thank you for sticking this out with us and showing so much enthusiasm! If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to message or send an ask here on Tumblr or reach out on our Discord server.

Hello! And welcome to the first-ever Exquisite Tomarrymort Corpse.
An Exquisite Corpse is a game in which each participant adds to a fanfiction in sequence, by being allowed to see only the end of what the previous person contributed.
After receiving some feedback here on Tumblr, I've decided to host this event. I’ve compiled a Google Form with a few questions to gather a sense of interest and start narrowing down some rules or guidelines. Please feel free to complete the form if you'd like to participate!
