You hear the sound of sweet faerie song and quiet, almost unnoticeable laughter. Stopping by a large, old tree, you spot the opening to a clearing. It's filled with fog, and the forest looms behind, seeming near endless.

If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask them in our Neospring!

( I ) WHAT IS A ZINE?    _{A zine is a fan-made, unofficial booklet that can contain art, stories, or photos based around a series, theme, or ship.}

( II ) WHAT IS FAE & FLOWERS?    _{Fae & Flowers is a SFW My Hero Academia fanzine centering around the relationship between Katsuki Bakugou and Izuku Midoriya. The theme is about anything from the fae—and the Irish folklore typically associated with it—to all sorts of mythology associated with nature! (See ( X ) for more in depth information on this!)}

( III ) WHAT DOES BKDKBK MEAN?    _{As the base zine is SFW, there would be no way for us to depict a dynamic, whether BakuDeku or DekuBaku. If we are able to have a NSFW addon, we will do our absolutely best to include an even amount of both BkDk and DkBk contributors.}

( IV ) IS THIS ZINE FOR-PROFIT OR CHARITY?     _{This has yet to be decided! We will have a question on our interest check asking if the zine should be for-profit, charity, or free! Please stay tuned for the results for this to be answered.}

( V ) WILL THIS ZINE BE PHYSICAL OR DIGITAL?     _{This project will be digital only, but don't worry because we have some lovely merch planned!}

( VI ) CAN MINORS PARTICIPATE?     _{No, no minors may participate in this zine. All future contributors must be 18+ to be able to participate!}

( VII ) HOW WILL CONTRIBUTORS BE COMPENSATED?     _{Depending on the nature of the zine, (for-profit, charity, or pay for free) all contributors will receive a minimum of a digital copy of the zine!}

( VIII ) WILL THERE BE ADD-ONS?     _{If the interest check results allow it, we would love to have a digital NSFW counterpart to the zine!}

( X ) CAN YOU BETTER EXPLAIN THE THEME?     _{Our theme is broad and could encompass many ideas, not just faeries or their specific folklore. Because of this, we will provide some examples of what you might expect to see in our zine:

            ○ Fae and/or faeries
            ○ Greek mythology
            ○ Any folklore surrounding nature}_{Generally, as long as it is centered around nature and the two girls, anything could be possible!}

( XI ) CAN I APPLY FOR MULTIPLE POSITIONS?     _{Yes, but you will only be accepted for one.}

( XII ) HOW WILL CONTRIBUTORS BE PICKED?     _{We will be choosing our contributors based solely on the ability to showcase their skills in their application. (i.e. for artists, we will be looking at anatomy, backgrounds, use of color, etc. while for writers, we will be looking for pacing, story flow, proper grammar, characterization, etc.)

We will not be taking into account past zine experience or follower count when going through applications. It will be done completely blind and without bias from any of the mods.}
