Re: Etiquette question about gift exchanges

[(Anonymous)]

A frequent exchange participant here: use all the inspiration. As long as you fill the main prompt it's okay. At the end of the day, YOU are the author. You write the fic. The prompt is there to guide you, not constrict you.

This exchange only allowed for one prompt, sadly, but usually there are more, so that the author can choose which one to fill. And people borrow elements from those other prompts. Sometimes - if all the prompts are revealed as part of treats segment - they even incorporate elements of other people's prompts.

Or, you know, write those exchange fics as integral parts of their already established fic series.
