FAQ

✦ What is a "bang?" ✦
A Big Bang is a collaborative event where creators in a fandom team up to make content. Writers will submit a pitch for their concept, and artists and betas will apply for the ones they most want to collaborate on.
✦ How is a bang different from a zine? ✦
Zines tend to be more formal projects where contributors must apply for a position. The end result is a physical or digital product usually intended to be sold. Bangs have no composite final product, they're entirely free, and there is no application process involved — so long as you meet the requirements below, you are welcome to participate!
✦ Why is the bang labeled 18+? ✦
Counting the Seconds will include sfw, nsfw, and problematic content. To avoid any minors coming into contact with any 18+ material, only adults will be permitted to participate in this bang.
✦ Can I still join if I turn 18 during the creation period? ✦
Absolutely not. You MUST be 18 at the time of sign up if you wish to participate. Anyone lying about their age will be removed from the bang and blocked immediately for both their safety and the safety of our contributors.
✦ Will problematic content be permitted? ✦
Yes. We will be permitting all content — sfw, nsfw, and problematic — but we require all works be properly tagged with content warnings.

MODS

Mod Min

Organization / Time-KeepingPAST EXPERIENCE
I planned weekly hangouts and gaming events on Discord for a year and a half before joining the BnHA fandom, but this will be my first time organizing a bang event!
FAVORITE MONOMA SHIP
MonoShin is a fantastic ship (they're snarky boys constantly up against the same kinds of prejudice), but a close second is MonoKiri (who doesn't love a good love/hate relationship)
FAVORITE MONOMA HEADCANON
He's a rich boy with parents he rarely sees who buy his love with material items. Some kids get hand-wrapped gifts for their birthdays; Monoma gets daddy's credit card in the mail.

Mod Protege

Art / GraphicsPAST EXPERIENCE
I've been drawing every day since I could hold a crayon.
FAVORITE MONOMA SHIP
MonoShin. They were introduced at the same time, both have manipulation quirks, and both feel like their childhood dreams are becoming a burden.
FAVORITE MONOMA HEADCANON
He's a little touch-starved due to years of people denying his contact for fear of "quirk theft." He feels Class B is the pinnacle of UA because he hasn't had that sort of treatment since making it into the class.

Mod Kaley

Graphics / Social MediaPAST EXPERIENCE
I just recently joined the BnHA fandom space, but it's been an incredible experience. I've previously moderated Apples and Unicorns: an Eri Zine and Brat: a Bottom Bakugou Zine, and I've been a contributor for a couple other events.
FAVORITE MONOMA SHIP
MonoShin and MonoShinZawa. Can't get enough of this manic gremlin with his lazy cat boyfriend(s). He needs someone chill enough to go with the tides of his hysteria.
FAVORITE MONOMA HEADCANON
I'm a huge fan of half-French Monoma who feels particularly contentious towards Aoyama, who he pegs as a try-hard who's overcompensating and falling into stereotypes.

Mod Fox

Writing / BetaPAST EXPERIENCE
This is my first experience as a Bang mod but my writing experience is extensive, from creative endeavors to my career as a journalist.

He's an excellent cook!

Writing / TranslationPAST EXPERIENCE
BnHA Pro-Ship Hub (general mod), HQ Monsterfucker Bang (general/social media), BnHA Staycation Zine (shipping mod)
FAVORITE MONOMA SHIP
He has such fun chemistry with so many characters, it’s hard to pin him down with just one!
FAVORITE MONOMA HEADCANON
Underneath all that bravado and confidence is a bundle of nerves and anxieties.
