Just Married - A Marriage Trope Exchange

(Update: The pinch hit has been claimed! Thank you very much, pinch hitter.)

As we still have one unclaimed pinch hit, the collection opening will be delayed by 4 days (to August 22 11:59pm UTC). We will extend the delay if necessary until the pinch hit has been filled, and will post updates as they're available.

This pinch hit is due August 21, 11:59 PM UTC (countdown), or negotiable. This is 24 hours before the new collection opening time.

CLAIMED - ( PH 3 - fic - The Equalizer (TV 2021), Highway to Heaven, Honest Thief (2020) )

Thank you to all pinch hitters who have turned in gifts! We have a pinch hitters' prompt post.

Assignments are due August 11 (countdown), just under 3 days from now!

Gentle reminder that the Just Married fic wordcount requirement is 1,500 words, and not 1000. Please also check that your assignment work:

is posted, not saved as a draft

is for a fandom, relationship, and marriage trope tag your recipient requested

does not contain any of your recipient's DNWs

We also have some new pinch hits. These are due August 15, 11:59 pm UTC, four days after the assignment due date.
