What is OruFrey Week?
"OruFrey Week" is a weeklong event dedicated to the ship between Orugio [Oru] and Qifrey [Frey] from the manga Witch Hat Atelier, written by Kamome Shirahama.First, there will be a Prompt Poll sent out on Twitter and Tumblr, usually open for around 2 weeks. We encourage as many people as possible, whether or not they plan on participating, to fill out the poll. The seven most popular options end up being the prompts for the week that year.Then, the day after the Prompt Poll closes, the prompts for that year will be announced. Each day of the week will have one or two corresponding prompts. From there begins the Creation Period.The Creation Period is just the time between the announcement of the prompts and the actual ship week itself, usually around 4-6 weeks. This gives everyone some time to create their pieces in preparation to post them during the actual week of the event. The idea is to create something that encapsulates the prompt and involves OruFrey.You can create as many or as few pieces as you like! If a prompt for one day of the week does not interest you, then you can skip that day and focus on making pieces for the other prompts throughout the week.Then, during OruFrey Week, everyone will post their corresponding pieces on their designated days! Remember to tag your pieces with the relevant Witch Hat Atelier tags, as well as '#OruFreyWeek2024' !
