( The Tipping Point )

I always find it harder to thank someone who I owe a great deal than someone I only owe a little. So if there is any good explanation for why it took me so long to post this, that is the only explanation I have. How do you adequately thank someone for giving up so much of their time and their talent for so many years? How do you express how much of a difference their hard work made to someone else? To a *lot* of someones? While I never thought the Snarry ship was in danger of sinking, our fandom would be so much poorer without DJ and her Snarry Games crew. And I don't have enough words to express the true depth of my gratitude. I realize that deep thoughts aren't really my forte. But I couldn't let this opportunity go by unacknowledged. So, thank you, DJ, from the bottom of my Snarry-loving heart. You've made a real difference in our community and we all owe you a debt we can never repay.

OMG DJ.

One of the bestest fests ever and it felt not just like a part of my fandom-life, but also you and your co-mods were wonderful, amazing examples of why fandom is so awesome. It's not just the canon, it's also the people working behind the scenes to make this experience interactive, fun, welcoming and creative.

I AM RAMBLING, LOL. Pictures say things better than words. Since this last fest was a blend of many things - new and old fans, art and fic, Snarry and other fandoms - I figured I could keep going with the trend and tailor it specifically for you!

However...not everyone agreed with my idea....

Dear DJ,

The Snarry community wouldn't be half so strong or so fun without you. Thank you for bringing us all together year after year. The stories and art produced during the Snarry Games are second to none!

On a more personal level, you renew my love for the pairing even as canon made it near impossible. Thank you so much for letting me be a part of it! It's been such an honor and a pleasure. Seriously, I can't thank you enough! I've just had so much goddamn fun making art and meeting people. Like, it was AMAZING to meet you in person. ;laskdjfadsf I'm incoherent.

So in thanks, I realized I never did any uh.. porny art for the Games.
So...( here it is )

Thank You!

Title: Our Queen
Artist: Venturous
Media: Pencil, PS
Rating: R for naked boy
Acknowledgments: Being a part of the Games for two years has meant so much to me, DJ, I can hardly find ways to express it. Fandom has reignited my art life and given me confidence I never had. So I need you to know that the gift you gave the world is no small thing, and that the ripples go forth, touching lives. **sniffle** Our Dear Boys felt that a proper title was in order.  Thanks to all of Teams Cauldron and Phoenix, Snitch and Dragon, and to Alphonse Mucha for the inspiration for this drawing.

Current Mood: artistic

Thank you for giving us the Snarry Games all these years! It's the fest I've always looked most forward to - so much fantastic Snarry fic and art! Taking part has always been an honour and one of my best fandom experiences. ♥

ETA (Sept. 29): I felt like playing a bit more in Photoshop - as if you needed two half-arsed artses instead of one. Um. ( But hopefully, it'll make you smile... )

DJ-

I was thrilled the first year I got into the games via the raffle, that I would get to be in a fest with so many other authors who I adore. Every year since, I've been just as thrilled to be included again. It's an honor, and I love the friendly competition, the teamwork, the artwork, the stories -- Everything. I really can't imagine all the work you put in to make the Snarry_games happen, but Thank You.

I'm not an artist, but in previous years when I've tried to write something as a thank you, it hasn't happened (my muse being passed out on the couch from the games fic), so I drew you a little something instead.

Title: Topping from the Bottom
Authors: plantinshadows
Team: Snitch

Title: Pop Goes The Voldie.
Authors: Acid and Sinick.
Team: Snitch
Rating: G
Word Count: 320
Summary: The caring between Snape and his familiar isn't all one way.
Authors' Notes: This ficlet and artwork is for DJ, who has given the Snarry fandom a truly legendary gift: literally years and years of wonderful stories and artwork, from hundreds of participants. Without her genius for inspiring and encouraging fellow fans, we would ALL of us be so much poorer.

Current Mood: thankful

DJ, I can't fathom the amount of work that goes on to put on our beloved Snarry Games. "Thank you" just doesn't begin to cover my graditude. Because I'm an artist, not a writer, and therefore cannot wield words as well as pixels, I made this for you.
