fandom_empireAnd it begins! The first week of our Bingo Challenge is open now.
The sign-up for the challenge and the team challenge will still be open until September 10, so it is not too late to join.
Try to fill at least one square every week to keep the challenge running. You can fill up to five squares (= one bingo) every week.
Your Bingo Card can be found here.
Short reminder of the rules
(for more information, visit the general BINGO post)

Specials:
Free Bingo = five squares of your choice

Let's play
You may create fandom works, original works, and real-person works.
Every square requires one complete work; single chapters are allowed as long as they can be read as stand-alone works.
Don't mix up two or more squares in one work.
Bingos can overlap, but if you re-use a prompt for a second bingo, you will have to create a new work for the square.
Fills Minimum
Every square comes with a minimum of:
100 words
1 haiku
2 icons (100x100)
1 graphic work bigger than an icon
Wildcards
At the beginning of the challenge, you will get five wildcards. You can use them in three different ways:
1. If you have missed a week, you can play a wildcard, and you are allowed to complete five extra squares in the following week(s).
2. Swap two prompts from your card (example: prompt N5 goes to I2)
3. Delete a prompt from your card and use one of your choice from the prompt list.
Team Challenge
If you have signed up, please visit your team Alpha or Omega to play.
You can still sign up here until September 10.
Posting for week one officially ends Sunday, September 14 17.00 UTC. There is a grace period until the week is finally called 'closed'.

Hockey RPF: Game Plan by thehoyden
Sep. 5th, 2025 11:21 amdenynothing1 posting in fancakeFandom: Hockey RPF
Pairings/Characters: Sidney Crosby/Evgeni Malkin
Rating: Explicit
Length: 10,281 words / 1hr podfic
Creator Links: thehoyden on AO3, exmanhater on AO3
Theme: Food & Cooking
Summary: Unlike Nealsy, Evgeni can cook his own food when he has it. He’s perfectly capable of making breakfast. His kitchen is well-equipped, and he’s got some good basic cooking skills down. In short, he is not going to starve to death if left to his own devices.
None of this seems to matter to Sid.
Reccer's Notes: This is a story about seduction by breakfast. As the title says, there is a clear game plan at work here -- possibly more than one. Much of the charm of the story is in how oblivious the determined seducer is to the effect he is having and how bewildered his target is that it's not clear how willing he is to be seduced.
Bonus: the descriptions of the ever-more-elaborate breakfasts are fantastic.
There's an accompanying podfic by exmanhater that is a delicious listen as well.

SGA: Clean Plate Club by yin_again
Sep. 5th, 2025 12:52 pmmific posting in fancakeFandom: Stargate Atlantis
Characters/Pairings: John Sheppard/Rodney McKay, Evan Lorne, Simpson, Radek Zelenka, Laura Cadman, Sam Carter, Daniel Jackson/Jack O'Neill, Stackhouse/ Markham
Rating: Explicit
Length: 7963
Content Notes: no AO3-type warnings apply
Creator Links: yin's old site on Wayback, yin_again on AO3, yin on LJ
Themes: Food and cooking, First time, Complete AU
Summary: Rodney looked at the prep area and nodded decisively. "How do you feel about waffles?"
"I love waffles," John said with a grin.
Reccer's Notes: This is the initial and main story in yin's Clean Plate Club 'verse, in which John's a sought-after photographer and Rodney's a chef turned food stylist (he prepares and arranges food for perfect photo shoots). It's a fun meet-cute with clever dialogue, great characterisation and a very hot first time. It's enormous fun, even if the "hero food" meticulously arranged by Rodney is actually dressed with glycerine and motor oil!
Fanwork Links: Clean Plate Club on Wayback (scroll down a little and you'll see this fic and the others in the 'verse.)
And yin also recorded it as a podfic, here.

ONE DIRECTION: LEAVE IT TO THE BREEZE
Sep. 4th, 2025 11:28 amdenynothing1 posting in fancakeFandom: One Direction
Pairings/Characters: Harry Styles/Louis Tomlinson, Niall Horan/Zayne Malik
Rating: Explicit
Length: 81,459 words / 9.5hr podfic
Creator Links: hattalove on AO3, frecklebomb on AO3
Theme: Food & Cooking
Summary: Louis couldn’t be prouder of his bake, but there’s something—there’s something. Something about Harry Styles and the earnest way he measures, pours, mixes, scrapes. Something about the tip of his tongue poking out of his mouth as he knocks the air out of his batter.
Or, a Great British Bake Off AU in which Louis cares about winning and winning only, Harry is made of sunshine and rainbow sprinkles, and Niall sticks his nose into other people's business. Also featuring Liam as Louis's best friend-slash-concerned mother, and Zayn as a macaron connoisseur.
Reccer's Notes: I love GBBO AUs to pieces and this is one of the very best I've found. This story features characters in their early 20s who love baking for a variety of reasons. They are mostly charming but can be very stressed and vulnerable. They find joy in being good at what they can do with batter and dough, but can also be tough on themselves as well as others. IOW you've seen these characters on the show itself at times. : )
There's an enemies-to-lovers progression happening for one half of the main pairing that is exasperating and very human until it reaches the point where it's also very hot and very fun. The writer deserves a cake stand and a big bouquet for managing to weave all these elements together into a very satisfying story.
There's a marvelous podfic version of the story by frecklebomb as well. It's one of my favorite listens.
