GENERAL RULES

1. This is a fixed dynamic, monoship event, so all the works submitted must be dedicated to Top Zhongli and Bottom Childe only. All the entries must be properly tagged.2. ZhongChi Week 2025 will take place from July 14 to July 20, culminating on Childe’s birthday. While our main activity happens during this week, submissions will still be retweeted later. Don’t feel pressured to a super strict deadline. Late entries are allowed until August 20th.3. ZhongChi must be the focus of your entries. This means that the involvement of other characters must remain secondary and not steal the couple’s spotlight.4. NSFW submissions, in the case of images, must be marked as sensitive before posting to twitter/bsky. If your work contains Dead Dove, Major Character Death, or MPreg content, you must tag it on your twitter/bsky post and on Ao3.
Works including underage or rape won't be reposted.5. Minors are not allowed to participate. While ZhongChi Week is not exclusively an NSFW event, we will repost NSFW submissions on our profile.6. Submissions on Ao3 must be posted in the collection [ZhongChiWeek2025] that will be created before the start of the event. This allows for the works to be grouped properly in the same space.7. Submissions must include the tag of the event. The official tags are: #/zhongchiweek2025, #/zhongchiweek2025NSFW [the slash is temporary]
You may submit fanfictions, threadfics, fanarts, cosplay or videos.8. AI generated works are strictly prohibited.9. Works can be submitted in any language.10. Remember to read the FAQ section as well. It's an extension of the rules we require you to follow.11.

Frequently Asked Questions

Am I allowed to mix prompts for my submission?
Absolutely, you don’t have any limitation in this matter.Should I tag properly even SFW work?
Yes. Other than the event tag, you should use the classic ship tags such as “ZhongChi” and “鍾タル”, which are the most common. For SFW works, we'll make an exception and retweet/repost works tagged “ZhongChiLi” as long as they're also tagged “ZhongChi”. This rule applies only to SFW works.Are we supposed to post everyday?
No, there’s no strict rule about this, you’re free to post whenever you can and manage yourself in any way you’re comfortable with! Do not feel pressured to post everyday or for every single prompt.Can one person submit more than one entry?
Absolutely! You might also collaborate with other creators, there’s no limit on the number of submissions. One person might write for all the prompts or for only one, you are free to do as you please and manage yourself however you want.May I use sites like Popiku, Privatter or similar for my NSFW entries?
Absolutely! The only rule remains to properly tag eventual CWs and the ship dynamic, but you may use any (safe) external site! Remember to make the content accessible even for non-followers so everyone can see it!Can I contact you if I have additional questions or suggestions?
Of course you can! You can contact us via twitter and bsky DM or ask anonymously on our zhongchiweek2k25.straw.page.

highly likely she ships zhongchi only because he can't be with either of them, draws at insane speed and would kill for a royal au
