I'll be editing this to add new fanworks as they're linked in the comm or added in the prompts post. Please let me know if there's anything I've missed or got wrong.

There's also a Festibility collection at AO3.

Note on warnings: the prompt post says that authors need to either warn for common triggers, put "No warnings apply" (if that's the case), or put "Author does not warn" in the subject line.

Right now, we have:

sick and tired of being sick and tired by anonymous, Glee, Rachel, G, "no warnings apply"

The Uncertain Trumpet by bliumchik, X-Men, Scott Summers, "no warnings I can think of"

Learning to Fly by sqbr A: TLA fanart, Teo, Toph, "No Archive Warnings Apply"

Nobody Bleeds for the Dancer by alexseanchai, Supernatural, Dean, "self-injury & reference to torture & suicide"

After the War by saystheheart, Iron Man, Tony Stark, "Warning: Mentions of canon violence in the first Iron Man movie. Some self-loathing on Tony's part"

A Matter of Secrets by jalendavi_lady, A:TLA, Zuko, Toph, PG, "Advisory: Includes discussion of disabilities by people who grew up in a heavily ableist culture and by teenagers tripping over the English language. "

The Better Part of Valor story by Teresa C. , podfic by juniperphoenix, Highlander, "Content warnings: none"

The Booth in the Back by gorgeousnerd, Supernatural, Dean, PG-13, gen, "PG-13 for creature-related violence and strong (but non-ableist) language"; "Author Chose Not to Use Archive Warnings" on AO3.

What He Means When He Talks About Running by anonymous, DCU, Wally West, gen, "No warnings apply"

More Barnabas Collins than Nick Knight by jadelennox, Community, Abed + ensemble, gen, G, "No warnings apply"

Heart of Steel by milleniumrex, DC Comics, Kara Zor-El/Cassie Sandsmark, PG-13, "Contains some ableist language from a character dealing with a new disability, as well as from a villain. This fic is aiming for a realistic look at dealing with quadriplegia, so there will be some dark parts in the early going, including brief discussion of suicidal urges. Contains discussion of underage sexuality, but no sex scenes."

Sister by terajk, Halloween, R for graphic violence and language, Warnings: "Character death (murder), psych system abuse, ableist language."

The Case of the Maiden Tribute by katta, Sherlock Holmes (2009), R, Warnings: "Graphic depiction of violence, nongraphic depiction of sexual child abuse" -- author would like to note that it's not primarily focused on the disability element

Awakenings by stainless, Transformers, PG, "Warnings: Not too much, really. Maybe a bit of violence, since there's fighting, but it's not very dark. And a few bits that I suppose could be suggestive."

Ship Duty by anonymous, Vorkosigan series, Ivan, gen, "Warnings: None apply so far, but unfinished. I'll note if it changes. Um, this is the first fanfic I’ve ever posted, so that’s the warning; Part 3: "Warning: I'm referencing (non-graphic) abuse in the past by Serg Vorbarr and Ges Vorrutyer, and some really horrible (but typically Barrayaran) treatment of the victims afterward. So par for the universe, but still warning-worthy." ETA: Now complete and posted in full on AO3: Ship Duty by miss_lanyon.

Forward Momentum by azurelunatic, Vorkosigan series, Miles, gen, warnings: "references to past surgery."

to this earth we fall by gloss, Marvel comics, Bucky Barnes & Nick Fury, PG. "Note: Both characters were born well before WWII and their worldviews are...not quite in synch with modern attitudes; readers should be warned for ableist language and convictions."

This Time is Different (And Better) by katta, Threshold, "no archive warnings apply".

Gaps by terajk, Avatar: The Last Airbender, Zuko & Azula, PG-13, "Warnings: Language, ableism."
