This will be my first exchange event.Favourite Big 3 headcanon: These three balance each other out well - together they boost Tamaki's confidence, bring reason to Mirio's endless positivity, and help rein in Nejire's enthusiastic outgoing persona.

FAQ
What's an exchange?
Gift exchanges are events where you create a gift for someone, and receive one as well! When you sign up for the event, you'll be asked a number of questions in order for your gifter to create something catered specifically to you, and you'll receive the same form for someone else that you'll base your gift off. The more you add, the more information your gifter has to work with!
Gifts are posted anonymously on AO3 (this part is optional) before gifts are revealed a week later! You can post on any site you like, but we can only promote your creation on Twitter and AO3, and remember to post where your giftee will see it too!
How is it different to a bang?
A bang event is a collaboration between writers, artists and betas, all working together to create both a written work and art piece. An exchange is typically done individually, using a form filled in by a giftee. Think of it as a Secret Santa event, catered to a specific theme - in this case, the Big 3!
What are the content restrictions? And why is the event 18+?
As the event is open to all forms of content, we've decided to curate a space to ensure that everyone is comfortable and safe while creating! For anyone who is under the age of 18 - the fandom is a vast space, and there will be other events for you to join.As this is a profiction event, any and all content is allowed, as long as:◊ The content you create does not contain anything that your giftee has listed as "Do not wish to recieve." The aim is to create something your giftee will enjoy!◊ The content you create is tagged with all appropriate warnings.If you still have questions about what content you can create, feel free to contact a mod or our Twitter page for more information.
Do I need a discord for this event?
As this event will primarily be run through Discord, a Discord profile is necessary in order to stay in the loop with event check-ins and announcements.
