A week to celebrate and denigrate the under-appreciated, underrated, and under-explored Peter Pettigrew. December 5th-11th, 2022.

Eligible content:

Ao3 Collection:

Art
Fics and drabbles (100 word minimum)
High quality meta
Any works submitted early will be unrevealed until the start of Wormtail Week (Dec 5). All works must be completed.
Tumblr:

All of the above plus:
Headcanons! Casual meta! Fic ideas! Fic rec lists! Moodboards! Playlists! Memes! WIPs!
Go wild with Peter-centric content
Post Dec 5-11, tag your post with “Wormtail Week 2022” and @ us, and we’ll reblog it
Other notes on eligibility:

Any and all ships are welcome.
Peter being fat and having explicit, kinky sex with anyone and everyone is more than welcome.
Peter does not have to be involved in the main romantic/sexual pairing of the fic, but he should be the main character. (Eg a fic where Peter learns of Remus/Sirius, and we get insight into Peter’s character.)
Dead dove content (noncon, incest, gore etc) is welcome, please tag it thoroughly and keep it behind a spoiler bar if on tumblr.
We will happily share and prompt Peter-centric meta about fandom, including criticism of Peter-related tropes or faceclaims. However, we won’t reblog/share content that includes personal attacks on people or groups in fandom.
Eg: “This is why writing Peter as ace can be rooted in acephobia and fatphobia” - great! “This is why anyone who writes Peter as ace is an acephobic and fatphobic bigot!” - not so much. “People who ship x or stan y are ugly and stupid” - certainly not.
The exception to this is personal attacks on JKR herself, which are splendid.
Note: this will be a relatively hands-off modded event, and we will not be monitoring the accuracy of tags. Do your best, act like adults.

We know Peter gets way less attention than other characters so in the lead up to the fest, feel free to tag us in reblogs of Peter-centric content, and we’ll reblog it here.
