Title: five possibilities + one certainty
Fandom: IDW Ghostbusters, and five others in this order: Minecraft (The Aether mod + popular Origins mod), Splatoon, Sonic the Hedgehog, IF (2024) and The Fall Guy (2024).

Rating: PG for the second segment, PG-13 for everything else (see sprawling content notes).

Length: 7887 words

Content notes: Brief description for burn injuries, light body horror (Segment I), possession (Segment III), drunkenness, hinted suicidal thoughts (Segment IV), brief violence (Segment II + V), spoilers for IDW Publishing's Crossing Over and Interdimensional Cross-Rip comic maxi-series, for the Ghostbusters 35th Anniversary mini-series first comic, in addition to tangential spoilers for Splatoon, Sonic Unleashed, IF and The Fall Guy - as well as for a personal AU in Segment VI. Oh, and there's swearing peppered throughout.

Author notes: This can be considered a sort of denouement for an AU I'm writing another thing for during Amnesty 78 here - and a sort of celebration of my autumnal / summer writings I did off-site when I first got struck with the Ghostbusters brainrot.

Also, I really didn't mean to write almost 8000 words for this, good lord. I hope it's not too much trouble to read.. I did my absolute best to keep stuff coherent between segments.

(Patch notes: Changed title slightly to show the main two challenges used. Sorry about that, mods.)

Written for: Five Things + Variation (all segments), Anywhere but Here + Travel (Segment I), Voice + Influences (Segment II), Shadow + Coincidence (Segment III), Breakdown + Confession (Segment IV), Teamwork + Fight (Segment V), Looking Back (Segment VI). All are for Amnesty 78.

Summary: Five things other Egon Spenglers have done across the multiverse, and one Egon Spengler too painfully aware of them all.

Our new challenge is:

INFLUENCES

The idea of this challenge is that you use an existing work as a template. So, for example, you might make fanart using the poses from an existing painting or photograph, but transposing your fandom characters into it. Or take a scene from a book and use it as a template for a fanfic ("Character A is caught red-handed in the middle of a crime; they make a quip. Character B shoots to miss." etc). Or recreate a vid, but in a different fandom (crediting the original, of course).

Alternatively, as always, you can interpret the prompt literally or figuratively, in whatever way works for you.

Each work created for this challenge should be posted as a new entry to the comm. Posting starts now and continues up until the challenge ends at 4pm Pacific Time on Wednesday, 10th July. No sign-up required.

Mods will tag your work with fandom and challenge. When you've posted entries to three consecutive challenges, you will earn a name tag, and we'll go back and tag all your previous entries with your name.

All kinds of fanworks in all fandoms are welcome. Please have a look at our guidelines before you play. If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to contact a mod. And if you have any suggestions for future challenges, you can leave them in the comments of this post.

Also, keep an eye out for the next ffw_social post, which will go up in the next couple of days. If you haven't joined the ffw_social comm, it's never too late to come and check it out. (Posts are locked, which means you have to join to see them.)
