hello! the fic dirty laundry, revealed today, was removed due to use of ai when editing a portion of the fic. we have addressed it with the author, and they have proven to us that other than proofreading, it was entirely human-written (by way of their doc history). after careful consideration by the mods, we decided to remove it from the collection, since we do not tolerate the use of ai in works for our fest in any way. we will not be revealing the author or taking any steps beyond removing it from the collection, as we believe we have handled it in accordance with our fest’s guidelines and done what is within the scope of our responsibilities as mods. thank you for your understanding! and we apologize for any confusion or inconvenience.
