Adopt An Unown! [Latest Pinch Hits]

Welcome to our Adopt An Unown thread, aka the pinch hit post! Please familiarise yourself with our rules before picking up a pinch hit.

To claim an Unown, please comment on this post. Anonymous commenting is on, meaning you don't need a Dreamwidth account to comment. Comments are also screened, so no one else will see them besides the mods. Please include the following information in your comment: the AO3 name where you will post your work, your email address, which Unown form you are claiming, and whether you are claiming them as a writer or a podficcer.

Here's an optional commenting template:

AO3 Name:
Email:
Unown form:
Writer or podficcer?:

Please only claim one Unown at a time. When you've posted your completed pinch hit to the collection, you may claim another if you like. Please also note that the maximum number of stories an author can write for this event is two, including assigned stories that were not pinch hits. There is no maximum for podficcers. We will email you at the address you provide to let you know if your adoption has been successful. Adoptions are given on a first-come, first-served basis.

Writer Pinch Hits

The following Unown need a writer! The deadline for these pinch hits is Sunday 22 March at 20:00 PM (UTC).

~~Unown G~~ CLAIMED!

Once an Unown has been claimed, it will be crossed out above.

Podficcer Pinch Hits

The following Unown need a podficcer! The deadline for these pinch hits is Sunday 29 March at 20:00 PM (UTC). The number beside the Unown form's name corresponds to the story's word count; seeing as our podficcers can't see the works they're claiming beforehand, we hope this information is helpful.

Warrington-Runcorn New Town Development Plan community

warrington_runcorn_ntdp is a new fan-run community focused on the music of electronic project Warrington-Runcorn New Town Development Plan.

Anyone is free to join, even those who have never listened before! Although if that is you, I'd recommend checking out the project's Soundcloud, Bandcamp, and Youtube to get acquainted :D

Discussion on the community will include, but is not limited to, avourite songs/albums/album artwork, physical media, how you discovered the music, recommendations for similar music, etc.

The current rules are pretty standard: no harassment/discrimination against any other Dreamwidth users; no NSFW/explicit content unless it's directly connected to the community's theme; and please keep any posts/comments on topic as much as possible. Anything else can be decided on in the future.

I (

oceangrey) am the current only moderator/admin, but if anyone else wants a similar role just message me or comment on the community's pinned post!

Withnail & I communities

withnailandi is a community for everything related to Withnail & I (1987). Fanworks/recommendations, meta/discussions, whatever, all are welcome here! Another related community is

withnailandinsfw, for any more explicit fanworks/discussions.

Although not entirely new (made in October 2025) both communities are unused as of yet, due to most of the fandom being on other platforms. Feel free to join whether you're a casual fan, or if it's your favourite film of all time, or if you're somewhere in between!

withnailandi is open for anyone to join, and

withnailandinsfw is set to administrator-approved due to the community's content.
