Oh, what a great idea! May I have a totally gen card, please? :D (I'm still writing stuff for my fic bingo card, but I can't resist this!)

(By the way, can we use recs that are already bookmarked at the Historium AO3 collection? I've added some great stuff there that I'd love to rec more widely, but I also totally get if this is for new recs, and it would be a fun challenge too!)

Thank you!

Here's your card:


And here's the HTML, if you want it.

may i request a gen card, please?

vetoing: amnesia, child/ren, and idiot.

question: what does "there should be bugs" mean? also, is there a due date? does "there's no time limit for claiming banners" imply there's no time limit on the bingo itself?

There's no time limit on the bingo at all, so take your time and have fun. :o)

question: what does "there should be bugs" mean?

It's just me being silly. You know how, in historical films/tv programmes, everyone has great teeth and clean hair despite bathing once a month being the height of hygiene? There are some scenes you just know they would have been crawling with bugs or inundated with flies but, nope, there's never one to be seen.

Anyway, here's your card. Enjoy!
