F.A.Q.
FAQ PT-BR
Disclaimer:
Obviously, I claim no ownership over the characters Aries Mu and Taurus Aldebaran. They rightfully belong to Masami Kurumada, I have no legal connections to Saint Seiya even less the companies behind it. I’m only here to promote fan events, without any profits in mind.
1. Who can participate in the event?
Anyone who is a fan of Saint Seiya, the couple in question and happens to stumble upon this blog. Regardless of their artistic skills, this is meant to be for fun and not at all a competition.
2. Is this a Tumblr exclusive event?
Not at all! Tumblr just so happened to be my primary social media when I kickstarted all of this. People from all sorts of places are more than welcomed to participate in it! Just make sure to post your entries in at least one of the social medias we are also at, which can be found in our specific page/tab for it!
3. What type of submission is allowed?
We don't want to restrict in any shape or form, how people will go about their entries! We'll accept everything! From drawn pieces to literature, as well as edits. Really, people's only limits are their own creativity!
When we say we are an Aldemu event, it also means we accept other facets of this relationship. A piece doesn’t have to be entirely focused in their romance! A piece that’s focused on their friendship will be accepted! Just be careful to not stray away from the main topic (e.g.: fanfic that is focused Alde and Mu’s friendship, which mentions in the passing Dohko/Shion will be accepted [note that Alde & Mu are still the focus of the fic]. Whereas a fic about their friendship that implies/mentions Mu being in a relationship with or is developing feelings for Shaka, won’t be allowed. [The aforementioned ship clashes with this one. You must abide exclusively to what you set out to write about]).
4. What isn’t allowed to be submitted?
✘ Any form of ship bashing/hate/harrassment/fan-policing. We all have our own preferences. Don’t like? Don’t interact with it. This goes double for anyone who doesn’t like Aldemu, and happened to stumble upon here. There will be no tolerance to any attempts at harrassment of any participant.
- Yes, sending messages like “X participant likes A/B/C ship or does unrelated stuff outside of the events! You need to ban/deal with them” falls under participant harrassment. Any message we receive like that will be deleted, and whoever sent it will be blocked.
✘ Any form of content that promotes hateful ideologies/hatred towards minorities/etc. This isn’t a place for anything of that sort.
✘ AI generated content. All we ask is that your piece was entirely made by yourself, the use of AI is forbidden. Anyone caught using it will be immediately booted out of the event.
✘ Edits shouldn’t contain fan-made work. Unless you have the artist’s permission to use their work. Zero tolerance for art theft. Trying to claim you couldn’t find a source for a fanwork featured in the edit, or say that “google/pinterest are the sources”, only makes matters worse.
✘ 18+ EXPLICIT CONTENT MUST BE TAGGED APROPRIATELY, AND ABIDE TO ANY PLATFORM’S TOS. With that said there are a few limits when it comes to Explicit content. So, don’t post any entry that contains any of the following:
- Lolicon/Shotacon. NO sexual depictions of either Mu or Aldebaran as underage whatsoever, be it in Written or Visual form. If an entry contains any content like that, it will result in an instant ban from the event, the user will be blocked from all of our social medias, and they won’t be allowed to associate with us anylonger in the future;
- Minor/Adult type of interpretations for Aldemu, those are also prohibitted.
- Watersports/scat/ABDL/etc. anything having to do with excrement/bodily fluids like that are a strict no.
✘ Things that don’t stick to the event’s main theme. I don’t think it would make much sense to submit, a piece that’s tied to an entirely different ship, to an Aldemu event. Try stay true to the main attraction, don’t bring up other ships that would clash with this one (different ships for either character).
