GUIDELINES


WHAT IS CHOICALE WEEK?
❧ ChoiCale Week (or CHCH Week) is a fanweek celebrating the Choi Han/Cale Henituse ship from Lout of Count's Family. This year, it will be held for seven days from July 2 to July 8, though we will continue sharing submissions until July 23.


WHAT WORKS WILL BE ACCEPTED?
❧ ChoiCale Week will accept various types of fan content including art, fics, Twitter threads, and playlists.
❧ The works must focus on the pairing of Choi Han x Cale Henituse. Based on the results of our interest check, "Cale Henituse" can refer to Kim Roksu in Cale Henituse's body, the original Cale Henituse, or Kim Roksu.Reversing the pairing (top!Cale and bottom!Choi Han) is the personal choice of the content creator. However, you must tag appropriately with #choicale or #calechoi on Twitter so that it can be filtered. If a top/bottom pairing is not relevant for your work, you do not need to use these tags.NSFW works are accepted as well. You should tag these with #chchweek_nsfw.Works in languages other than English are accepted. If you write in English or Indonesian, use the official names: Rowoon Kingdom and Lout of Count's Family, for instance. Click here for the list of names from the official translations.❧ You are NOT allowed to use or edit other people's works without their permission. If you draw inspiration from a source other than our prompts, make sure to give credit.❧ Works must be new for ChoiCale Week. However, you MAY update an old work of yours (such as by redrawing a picture or writing a new chapter of a multi-chapter work) as long as it fits the prompt.


PLATFORMS
❧ Based on our interest check, the mods will retweet and host spaces on Twitter; organize a collection on AO3; and have a public Discord.
Works can be posted on other platforms, if you would like! Just know that we won't be able to promote your work unless you send us a message or cross-post on Twitter.


TAGS
Consumers are responsible for their own consumption. The following are the tags that will be used for this year’s CHCH Week
#chchweek2023, #chchweek_nsfw, #choicale, #calechoi
❧ We recommend filtering out the NSFW tag if you are a minor and filtering out the reversible tag if you are particular about ship dynamics.Creators should also tag responsibly. In addition to the tags above, please use your discretion to tag for any potentially triggering or dark content.
