THE AVIARY is a multinational hub for adult creators and fans who want freedom, fun, and connection. We have gathered a multifandom community where writers, artists, musicians, and fans gather for inspiration, feedback, and everyday connection. The world is a troubled place, and we unapologetically live our lives, but reach out to those screaming in the void and in need of sanctuary. We host events, giveaways, and engage in plenty of chaos; from simping over favorite characters, gushing about OCs, swapping fic recs, and art.

We are:

We are open to anyone who values creativity within the limits of our values and rules.Whether you're looking to share art, memes, fics, collaborate, or just vibe, there's space for you.Don't like? Don't look.Do like? Come hang.

Community Rules

These apply to all of our sister servers

AI Policy

Plagiarism OR Killing the environment and destorying communities with extra steps

GPTs/Generative "AI" use is not permitted in this server.

Adult Spaces

Trying to Keep Discord Safe for Minors and Adults Alike

Please keep NSFW talk in NSFW spaces. Discord has NSFW policies and we do not want anyone getting dinged over a misunderstanding.This is a balancing act. We offer a variety of age verification options from GPDR/CCPA compliant tools to human reviews with multiple options to protect your information..Absolutely no minors

Spoiler Policy

Don't be a dick

If you’re posting or discussing spoilers, please be sure to use the spoiler function in Discord. We are Multi-Fandom, and this applies to all fandoms.If sharing something potentially triggering, please use the Spoiler function.

Kidness and Respect

Respect our people

Hate of any kind will result in a ban from the server. This includes slurs, doxing, threats, and general belligerent behavior.Be respectful. Disagreements are natural, and discourse is permitted in specific channels, but ad hominem attacks, trolling, or otherwise creating a hostile environment will result in removal and ban.We do not apologize for having lives outside of Discord in this server; if you're "late to the party", please don't be afraid to comment anyway, and do not apologize. You do not owe an explanation.

Emotional Labour

Respect our energy

Please try to keep emotional labor asks (trauma dumping, venting, political discourse, etc) to the Heavy Topics section.

Creative Respect

Don't Like, Don't Look
Thou Shalt Not Steal

We have artists and authors on this server; plagiarism, or attempting to pass off someone else’s artwork as your own (art theft), will not be tolerated.We use symbols to denote general themes you might encounter in any creator’s channel, such as Explicit and Dead Dove content. You are expected to take full responsibility for your own wellbeing.Lastly, this extends to art and fandom channels. We have taken steps to split characters and ships into their respective categories to support the Don’t like, Don’t Look policy. If you want to have a discourse about this, there is a Fandom Discourse section.We have paid, and custom emotes/stickers! Anyone caught taking screenshots and uploading them to another server will be removed. Doing so devalues an artist’s work and undermines their livelihood.

FAQs

I’m a little put off by the age verification requirement. What is expected of me?

Good instincts! And believe me, we get it.

It’s good to be wary about putting your personal information out there! But the reality is that we have to keep Discord safe - for minors and adults.Trust us when we say we don’t want your personal information. This is why we offer a variety of options, ranging from a GDPR/CCPA-compliant tool to human verification. Within the Human verification option, we provide several methods to verify that you’re of legal age. We allow you to hide all information that is not relevant to our purposes (such as your legal name, biometric data, identification number, etc) - effectively, no more than what you’d do when giving your ID to a clerk when buying alcohol. We also offer options that do not require your ID (though they still need human verification).We don’t need your information; we want to confirm you’re an adult.

Why don’t you mark the community as Age-Restricted?

It’s really dumb

Marking the entire server as “Age-Restricted” actually limits access. Yes, this means minors can’t access the server, which is good, but we have several members of the server who are iOS-only.**For whatever reason, on iOS, Discord requires you to use a desktop device to bypass the blocked feature. However, we have members on our server who, by choice, do not have a computer.Further, at present, Discord’s “age verification” for the US is simply a checkbox confirming that you are over 18.

About the specified user-

STOP, YOU HAVE VIOLATED THE LAW

An explanation will not be provided, nor is it owned. Follow the rule as written, or don’t join. Simple as that.

There’s an Aviary Author’s collection on AO3 - is that you guys?

Aha!

Yes! That is us!Two of our members, Sanguine_Tenshi and Null, maintain it. It is entirely optional, but if you’re in the server, you are welcome to submit your link to the collection HERE
