Art and banner by

On behalf of all the mods, and I'm sure everyone who's come into contact with our gorgeous banners, we'd like to thank the very talented

cremebunny for not only allowing us to use her artwork but for creating specifically for this fest; ♥ thank you,

suf_sss,

mizorekibishi,

citrus_lime and fya-shellk for giving us permission to use their artwork and

arenee1999 for making the banners for that artwork! You are the loveliest of lovely people and we adore you! ♥

Of course we could not have been such a massive success without our readers, rec-ers, commenters, betas, pimpers, prompters, artists and authors! Your love for great works and Draco Malfoy has convalesced into this utterly brilliant Adaptations fest. I hope you feel as heart-burstingly wonderful over that as we do.

Shall we quantify our success? (I'm going to go with an enthusiastic YES because stats are shiny!)

We had 13 pieces of art and 44 fics! Together we wrote over 565,550 words of brand new bottom!Draco goodness! *Mind-Blown*

Our longest fic weighed in at 58,000 words - congratulations,

talithan, on your epic! *rah, rah, high kick*

Harry Potter was easily our most available top (we all know he doesn't have a life outside of waiting around for Draco to want him though) but we had quite a few rare pairs as well! Remus, Tom Riddle Jr., Ron, Snape and Voldemort all made a play for our dear Draco and a few blokes even managed to get in there before Harry did: Theo, Neville and Blaise. Good job, men! Even some females got in on the action: Bellatrix, Luna and Hermione. Equally well done, ladies!

On the Adaptations side of things, we ran the gamut from television to film to comics to manga to myths to plays to novels to porn to fairytales to short stories to songs. Holy crap, our prompters were creative! Thanks for jumping on our theme and mauling it in the face! (In all good ways.)

A special thanks to our participants who were so inspired they submitted for more than one prompt:

citrus_lime,

olimakiella,

fantasyfiend09,

dragontara and

marianna_merlo!

To those who couldn't meet the deadline, you're welcome - and encouraged - to post your finished products to the comm whenever you complete them! d(^^,)b

( ONTO THE REVEALS! )

Now go forth and glomp your favorite authors/artists with love! We hope you've picked up a few new ones as well and that you'll let them know how much you've enjoyed their creations!

Authors/Artists of the 2013 Adaptations Fest, you are now welcome to reply to your comments and cross-post your stories/art! ~~We'll be adding your names to your fic/art just as quickly as our little fingers are able!~~ Everyone's fics/arts should now be labeled and tagged. If we've missed anyone/mislabeled/misspelled, please let us know!

Also, I'm happy to announce that our lovely mod,

citrus_lime is in the process of making shiny banners for each and every one of our participating fest authors/artists! Huzzah! So, fest authors/artists, do keep a lookout for another post from us with your name on shiny fest participant banners within this week or so. *winks*

Thank you to everyone who participated! You made this fest such a wonderful thing to be a part of! We had such a brilliant time putting all of this together and getting to see all these diverse Adaptations brought to life!

Your humbled mods,

appleling,

calrissian18,

citrus_lime,
