I hope your assignments are, by and large, well suited to you!

Sometimes you and your recipient are not a great fit. Or sometimes you're excited about a request during sign-ups, and the moment you get assigned to it, you wonder what you were thinking. So: swaps.

If you would like to swap to any other participant, please get in touch before 11:59pm EDT, Thursday 25 September - mod.modzilla@gmail.com. Most swap requests can be granted.

After that time passes, you can still swap your assignment in the following circumstances:

-The request you want is a pinch hit. You can swap to any pinch hit until the January deadline.
-Your assigned recipient has an incomplete letter. You are welcome to swap to another recipient, whether they are a pinch hit or not, until the January deadline.

I think I've responded to all the swaps requests I've received so far - please contact me again if I've missed replying to you.

Fandom: Knives Out (2019)
Pairing: Marta Cabrera/Ransom Drysdale
Word Count: 10,500
Rating: Teen
Warnings: No archive warnings

Summary: Ransom was the only one of the Thrombeys who hadn't been haunting the patriarch's doorstep with demands and pleas ever since the party. Maybe there was a little more to him than the façade of a spoiled rich kid who valued nothing and no one besides himself.

Characters: Shane, Farmer
Word Count: 11k
Rating: E
Warnings: CNTW

Summary: He'd never had much to do with their northern neighbour, though Marnie had always spoken highly of him, so he stuck a forkful of trout in his mouth instead of replying. So there was a new farmer in town. So what? They'd probably barely meet. It wasn't much to do with Shane.

You should now have received an assignment! Please contact me (mod.modzilla@gmail.com) if you have a problem with your assignment, or you got two assignments (!), or if you just have a question about your assignment, whether it's a question for me or a question for me to pass on to your recipient.

You are welcome to email me to ask to swap your assignment. Because assignments were out late, I'm extending the swaps deadline to September 25. I usually confirm swaps towards the end of that period, but may be able to confirm sooner.

The following pinch hits are due at 11:59pm EST on Saturday January 24th 2026, and pinch hitters are also asked to check in in November 2025. To claim, please reply with your AO3 name, and let me know which recipient/PH number you want. You're also welcome to claim by emailing mod.modzilla@gmail.com.

If you already have an assignment and want to swap your assignment for a pinch hit, please say so - otherwise I'll assume you want both assignments.

I will reply to claims on this post after approximately a day - this is to give priority to people who are looking to swap.

Minimum requirements: An art gift must be a completed comic at least 10 pages or 40 panels long; a fic gift must be a story at least 10,000 words long. You can also fulfil a pinch hit by giving two complete half-length works, if your recipient has opted into that for the fandom(s) you are creating in. Any work must be for a fandom your recipient has requested and one character/relationship/worldbuilding tag requested in that fandom, and must avoid their DNWs.

triplecrownofexchanges

Hi everyone, thanks for your patience through many delays and silences. Unfortunately, we're writing to inform you that no one on the Triple Crown Committee is able to run a Triple Crown raffle or other event this year. We know everyone looks forward to it — we do too — and we've tried to find some way to make it happen, but we just don't have the capacity to do it.

If you're interested in independently organizing a raffle or other event for Triple Crown winners, we're happy to chat with you about that. We won't be able to do much by way of practical support, but we can provide a list of verified 10k+ "winners" of the three Triple Crown exchanges and promote your event in Triple Crown venues. Please reach out to highadrenalinemod@gmail.com to discuss taking this on.

Good luck to everyone with Fic in a Box assignments and swaps, Five Figure Fanwork Exchange assignments, and hopes and dreams for High Adrenaline! And thanks for your understanding.
