NOTE: This discussion post is closed. Go HERE for the new discussion post.

Use this post for discussion of Minna's comics! Feel free to post about the most recent SSSS updates, or about earlier developments. aRTD discussion is also allowed here.

Discussion does not have to be limited to the comic itself; if you just want to gush about how hot Sigrun is, or open up a thread for fanwork prompt requests, or discuss SSSS/aRTD in the context of multifandom fanwork exchanges, that's okay too!

In order to easily see the most recent posts, I suggest using Flat View.

Re: Fests and Exchanges

Yeah, that's a good distinction to make. I actually had to revise my Smut Swap fic per mod order because it wasn't explicit enough and sat there trying to work out how Lalli of all people could be made to comply with that particular demand. Women? Piece of cake, depending on the character, but that's not exactly a gender-specific thing.

I'd be excited to see you there, anyway. SSSS seems very exchange lite, which is surprising to me because there are so many active fans considering it's a fairly small fandom. But hey, maybe we'll be getting there.

I went with the surnames you suggested for Ellu and Sisko, at least that'll give people a clue which family they belong to. (Even if Minna went for non-traditional naming, wouldn't this still be probable? In case of the Hotakainen and Hollola families either the husband took the female surname (Saku), and even if the husband kept his own name (Eino), the child seems to take the mother's surname (Veeti) - though of course I don't know if the reverse of the woman keeping her maiden name and the child taking the father's surname is also possible, google didn't help with that).

Liiiiiists:

SSSS:

Stine
Esko's wife
Ulrika Västerström
Elvira Västerström
Mia Västerström
Kirsten Madsen
Mette Madsen
Mathilde Madsen
Marianne Madsen
Nordic Council Lady

aRTD:

Sini Kuitunen,
Astrid,
Puppy-Fox's Mom
Ellu Viitanen
Sisko Kinnunen

ETA: Talked Ju into nominating some.

Another associate would like to know if it's okay to nominate some of these as groups? For example, the Madsens we can probably knock out in one slot as "Group: Kirsten Madsen & Mette Madsen & Mathilde Madsen & Marianne Madsen" and that way whoever requests them can ask for them as a group or individually if they want. It'll also free up spots for the other characters. (As for Kitty (not sure if animal characters are allowed?)), not sure what to put her name down as since Minna said a name if forthcoming?

Re: Fests and Exchanges

Nomming the Madsens as a group would make a lot of sense, since there isn't much in the way of canon material to distinguish them.

Re: Kitty, I'd put her down as "Crew Cat" or something like that, myself (she doesn't seem to have a set ao3 tag at this moment). But you make a good point about whether animal characters are allowed - I'm pretty sure that intelligent/talking ones like the aRTD haltija characters are within the guidelines, but someone like the SSSS cat, not sure....

Re: Fests and Exchanges

[greatandgrey]

Okay! :) And it fits the guidelines, so...we'll go with that! :D (I did the same thing with Reynir's sisters in my own nominations.)

So for SSSS, you can cross out:
Group: Kirsten Madsen & Mette Madsen & Mathilde Madsen & Marianne Madsen
Stine
Esko's wife

(I might need to page the mod again concerning the Crew Cat, although I'm getting shy from privately sending them so many questions already.)

I'll poke my associate about Sisko Kinnunen too. :)

Aaah, that is awesome, thank you so much! ♥ And good point about Kitty. I just tend to consider her such a character that it didn't occur to me that she... probably isn't, really. And she can still come into the fics, anyway, so no need there. :3
