Hello everyone; I’m excited to announce that I will be offering my services for character art & full illustrations. I know in these trying times art is a want, not a need, but I am thankful you took the time to stop and consider. Sharing to spread the word would be lovely 💙

Event planning for Decimum Anniversarium is in full swing! We're hosting a FFXV Cup Sleeve event this Nov 29 for the celebration of the 10-yr anniversary of the game's release Come check out the interest check if you would be interested in joining the festivities whether your from PH or int'l!

The FFXV anniversary is coming up fast and it’s making me feel inspired to make merch again of all of the things that remind me of the joy this world has brought me over the years. If you could have one thing as merch, anything, anyone, from FFXV, what would you wish for? #FFXV #FF15

Please note that the creative period could start sooner pending how fast we get through the pairing period! :> We've also gone ahead and made some addendums to some of our FAQ answers, and added a new rule that you can see in the images below (alt text for screen readers):

Rules Expansion

We have made an addition to our rules with this being one of them:

If you have received something, please take the time to show appreciation for the gift that was made for you. This is, as stated before, a free event, and everyone is volunteering their time and effort willingly to make something nice for someone else within the fandom. Please repay that effort in recognition of their gift to you by saying something nice in the form of a comment or nice tags pending on platform.

We, unfortunately, had a couple incidents where people worked hard on their submissions that seemed to receive no acknowledgment from the recipients they were for, and we would like participants to please not leave the person who did your gift hanging, or feeling like it was disliked. We can't control how you feel in the end, and it will always be unfortunate for everyone involved if the work is disliked, though we would like it if everyone at least extended the courtesy of acknowledging something was made for you.FAQ Changes and Updates

We have expanded upon some of our FAQ answers for, hopefully, better clarity on our carrd:

What is allowed in the exchange?

[…]

We ask that all OC creators that enjoy seeing their OC or OC x canon ships to not feel shy about being resolute in asking for content of your creations born of love for the setting we've all had the joy of experiencing and creating for. This exchange is about spreading joy and hopefully receiving joy in return. That includes your OCs if you love them and having them in the world of FFXV.

This was added as an addendum to this segment because it felt like a lot of people were really shy about asking for any FFXV OC content. While we do recognize that, yes, this is a space where we want to celebrate our favorite canon characters, we also want OC creators who have their FFXV characters know that they are allowed to also celebrate their own creations. Please be kind to OCs; they were created out of love for their creators' experiences with FFXV to play in the world of Eos in their own way.Is this event meant to be anonymous?

Nope. You don't have to be anonymous if you don't want to be. We do, in fact, encourage you to reach out to your gift recipient just to make sure you're on the same page as one another (and also to make sure that you have the right person). […]

If you want to keep your work and submission a surprise until you're done, or until the deadline, that's still fine. If this is the case, we're always open to having you contact us to be a middleman in contacting your recipient to keep them aware of any complications, or ask for any needed clarification so that you retain your anonymity.

Due to some miscommunication last year between participants, we had an instance where there was a mix up in who was receiving what, and a participant ended up being the recipient of two gifts. While we're not going to enforce reaching out if you want to keep your submission a surprise, we are always happy ourselves as the moderators of this event to act as messengers between two people to keep the anonymity aspect.

This extends to any participants wishing to drop out for any reason at all; if you do not want your recipient to know who you were, but still want to communicate that you're dropping out for us to find a pinch hitter, we will keep you anonymous to your recipient so that your privacy is ensured.What is the minimum word count for written entries?

1,000 words is the very bare minimum of what we'll be comfortable accepting as a finished ficlet. With the increase of time for 2026's Gifts of Eos, we hope this will be more than enough time to write something that meets that, or surpasses that.

This word count will not apply to things such as lyrics or poems, which generally tend to hover around an average of ~150 - ~170 words. Same consideration for haikus as they are meant to follow a 5/7/5 format and could not reach that if it is one on its own. That said, we do recommend maybe writing multiples of said forms of writing instead of settling on one or two given how small a word count they usually average at.

We've gone ahead and bumped up what we'll allow as the bare minimum of word count for a finished ficlet for the event is, as well as are encouraging people that are more inclined for poetry or song lyrics to do more than just one or two pieces for the event.

Hello! We have a start date for GoE's second year #FFXV fan exchange! Aug. 1st until Sept. 30th will be our sign-up period! We hope that this two month window will be good for everyone. In addition, we also upped the creative period from October 8th to January 31st with grace until February 15th!

#StarVents Day 6. Yesterday was hell but we pulled through it. I was awake for over 20 hours from the moment hubby messaged me at 2am until 10pm when I finally got home and collapsed into bed. Hubby ended up going into surgery around 11:30am yesterday. It went well and he’s okay thank god.

#StarVents Day 5. Another rough day. Hubby was in pain and nauseous for most of yesterday. Woke up at 2am to a message from him telling me the doctors scheduled him for some sort of procedure to figure out what the heck is going on in his system at 7:30 this morning…once again well before

#StarVents Day 4. Hubby had a very rough Day 3. His pain got worse than he was doing on Day 2 and right before I had to leave him last night he started feeling nauseous, which I cannot imagine is a good sign. He messaged me at like 3am to say he’s had a very bad night and requested stronger

#StarVents Thanks for all the hugs and support everyone. I might not directly reply to everyone because I’m tired a bit overwhelmed but I’ll continue posting updates under this tag. Heading up to the hospital now to begin day three of this nightmare.

#StarVents I forgot to tag this as a vent yesterday but I’m going to occasionally vent/update about my ongoing situation here. So if you don’t want to see that you can mute the tag above to avoid it. I feel like the universe at large has it in for me. It took 12 hours to transfer my husband

Sitting next to my husband in the emergency room for the 2nd time in the last 3 months, waiting for him to be transferred to a regular room because he’s being admitted & I can’t stop worrying about how the hell we’re going to be able to pay what will likely be thousands of dollars out of pocket. 😭
