Recursive Exchange is a fanwork exchange for requesting fanfiction and fanart of other fanworks! Recursive fanfiction is frequently called "fic of fic" and (in a fannish context) recursion essentially means treating a fanwork as a canon source material.

Minimums will be 1000 words or a finished piece of drawn art. Original Works stories count as fic for this exchange.

question!
is there a policy on orphaned works without explicit permission statements? are they off-limits here on account of verifiable permission being generally un-obtainable?

[recursivemod]

Our feeling about nominating orphaned works: orphaning a fanwork on ao3 is the same as setting it free. So in the absence of a clear "please don't make transformative works for this/I'd rather forget this existed completely" note on the work, we'll allow orphaned works to be nominated for the exchange!
