Activity #98 Checkered

This is a pretty straightforward theme: show some kind of checkered or grid pattern in your icon. The pattern can be there in the source, e.g. someone wearing a plaid shirt or standing in front of a wire fence or playing a game of chess, or you can add it using textures.

( Some inspirational material under here )

* You can make as many icons as you like (if you need a goal, five is a good number :))
* There is no minimum, 1 icon is enough to enter this activity
* Please submit your icons (and URLs!) to this post, all in one comment (if possible)
* Everyone can participate, you don't have to be a member of this community

* I will collect all the icons from the comments and make a result post
* Everyone can leave comments on the inspiration and activity result posts
* There is no voting

Deadline: Saturday, October 18th, your end-of-day

Yuletide 2025 Nominations Closed

Thank you for your nominations! Nominations are now closed. We have 6078 fandom nominations to sort through: that means that at least 1216 people nominated, but probably more. This is lower than our highest ever number of nominations received previously - 6257 - but higher than last year's 5950 nominations.

So, what happens next?
First there's a pause. We review the information we have already and get our ducks in a row. Then, when we begin to approve your nominations, it won't be in any obvious order. The approvals interface shows us fandoms at random, rather than according to who nominated them or when the nomination was submitted.

Help us get through approvals faster - please keep an eye on this community for questions about nominations we find confusing. In turn, if you are confused by how we've approved your nomination, you can ask us about it. If you submitted evidence close to the end of nominations, we may also have follow-up comments for you; however, we won't be accepting any evidence for new canons now that nominations are closed.

While we approve fandoms, you can:

Promote your rare fandoms here at a promo post!

Start writing your letter, if a letter is part of your approach to signing up!

When your nominations have been approved, let other participants know at the nominations coordination post on DW!

Euphemisms (Transformers [Bay Movies], Thundercracker & Scion [OC])

Title: Euphemisms
Fandom: Transformers [Bay Movies]
Pairing/Characters: Thundercracker & Scion [OC]
Content Notes: none
Prompt: September Twenty-six - 6 & 7 - double meaning

Thundercracker looked up as Scion came in, that same heel-lifted walk 'Screamer used, and he knew the rust-bit would hate to be reminded of the similarity.

"I cannot ask any other Seeker," Scion said with a huff. "And I'm not about to ask Powerglide; he already thinks I am lacking knowledge.

"Do you have a language program with … euphemisms?"

Thundercracker wanted to smile, even laugh, but the rust-bit was dead serious, and the look implied Scion had missed something thrown at him and been humiliated by the response.

"Yeah. Give me a moment and I'll send you a language file."

latetreatbonanza | AO3 Collection

Description: Do you have a late gift that you started a long time ago and need a little push to finish up? Post it for Late Treat Bonanza! Late Treat Bonanza is an event designed to motivate people to finish up old gifts for a deadline. You can add your late gifts to our collection, which will keep it hidden until everything gets revealed all at once on December 25th! We also provide a 1-week anonymous period to make it a Secret Santa-like gifting occasion. If you've been having trouble finishing up a late treat, maybe this event will provide you the motivation you need!

Even if you aren't planning on making anything, if you've signed up for exchanges and other gift-giving events in the past, you may want to sign up to indicate your interest in receiving late gifts. People already working on treats or looking for some old requests for inspiration might be motivated to create something for you!

* Note that Late Treat Bonanza is now running once a year during this Christmas time period, so get your late treats in now while you can!

Schedule:
Sign-ups end/works due: 24 December 23:59 PST (UTC-8)
Creator reveals/collection closed: 31 December 23:59 PST (UTC-8)
