German bros week 2023 is now officially over! Thank you to everyone who participated. I really appreciate the few who were able to create something for this week, as I gave very little time to prepare and understand it was probably hard for people to create fast enough. As always you can still create and submit for this week even though it's over. Feel free to view the month of October as German bros week as you'd like :)
And another thank you, this one for anyone who reblogged or liked or commented on the submissions. These all help encourage us creators to keep creating year after year.
if you are creating something just make sure to @ this blog and use the germanbrosweek tag. There is no time limit, you can even go back and create content for the older prompts if you’d like!
With that I hope everyone enjoyed this year’s second German bros week! Hopefully next year’s will be better and I'm able to get the prompts out faster!

German Bros Week Day 4: Monsters
@germanbrosweek
Gilbert has been a lone vampire for centuries, but when he found a little orphan boy he decided to take him in and change him once he was old enough to understand what that means.

Ok so this is for German bros week @germanbrosweek day 6 nightmare I didn’t proofread it but it is what it is.
It was 3 am and Gilbert Was sleeping soundly until he heard a knock on his bedroom door. He sat up and slowly made his way to the door. Barely awake he opens it. When he does his younger brother walks in and quickly sits on his older brother’s bed.
“Ludwig… why’re you in here?”
“I, I had a nightmare…”
“Ok, you’re 12. You know that right.”
“Ja…”
“You’re too old to be sleeping with me when you have a bad dream.” Gilbert says as he moves his brother off the bed.
“No, bruder!” Ludwig whines
“Nope, don’t bruder me. I want to sleep alone.” He says pushing his brother closer to the door
“Please.”
“Nein.”
“Please I won’t kick you in my sleep this time!”
“Nope, you can sleep on your own.”
“But I cant.”
“Yes you can.”
“No seriously, the nightmare was really bad.”
“Sure..”
“Seriously i can't sleep..” Gilbert stops pushing his brother out of his room and sighs.
“Fine, fine. Whatever.” He lets Ludwig crawl into his bed and reluctantly follows his younger brother. “You owe me.” He said in an annoyed tone.
“No I don’t.” His brother quickly replied.
Gilbert rolls his eyes and smacks him with a pillow. Ludwig then quickly grabs a different pillow and hits him back. Soon enough they were having a pillow fight. Gilbert throws a pillow and it hits Ludwig square in the face. He fell onto the bed but he quickly gets up. He then jumps up to smack Gilbert in the face with a pillow.
“Hey!” Gilbert laughs. “No fair.” He then grabs two pillows, and hits him with them at the same time. They both start laughing and then the door slams open. They both jump. “Oh, sorry vati…”Gilbert says
“BOYS! It’s too late to be doing this.. it’s 4 am. Go to sleep.” Germania says sternly. He shoots daggers at Gilbert and slams the door. Gilbert and Ludwig look at eachother.
“Well, let’s actually go to sleep.” Ludwig nods in agreement and they get ready for bed. Gilbert then realizes he never really asked him about his nightmare. “West-“
“Don’t call me west, it’s annoying.”
“…nein. What west is a nice nickname.”
“It’s not… it doesn’t make sense.”
“It does, plus if you could choose your nickname what would you want it to be.”
“….I don’t know ”
“So west stays. Anyways, what was your nightmare about.”
“You died.”
“WHAT?!… sorry, what.”
“Ja..”
“That’s why you wanted to sleep with me?” Ludwig nods seemingly like he’s somewhat ashamed. “Don’t worry, I’m too awesome to die.” Ludwig rolls his eyes.
“Goodnight.”
“Ok night west.” They then both drift off to sleep.

German Bros Week Day 6: Nightmare
@germanbrosweek
AO3
Ludwig stared at his brother's body. Gilbert was cold and still, his red eyes staring into nothing.
"G-Gilbert?" Ludwig stuttered, seeing but not believing. Gilbert wasn't really...he couldn't be..."But I am," said Gilbert. The words didn't come from his body. Ludwig turned around. In front of him was Gilbert.
"This isn't funny," Ludwig said, sternly. Gilbert just gave him a look while Ludwig assessed what exactly was in front of him. It was Gilbert, but he was transparent. He was taller too somehow. Ludwig looked down and saw that Gilbert's feet were hovering above the ground. He let out a small gasp.
"I'm dead, Ludwig. Want to know why?" The ghost-Gilbert asked, his voice laced with ice. Ludwig just stared. How was...this couldn't be real! His heartbeat still got faster though.
"It's because of you. You've destroyed me, Ludwig. You let Prussia die, your own brother." Ludwig couldn't speak. Gilbert couldn't be dead, he couldn't, he still had to be alive! It was a cruel joke or maybe he was hallucinating! This didn't make any sense and yet...it did.
"Yes brother," Gilbert spat the word like he was saying an enemy's name.
"You killed me. You let my nation die, you let me become mortal. This is all your fault. If you had been stronger, better, I would still be there with you! But now I must go on to the afterlife and leave behind the many adventures I COULD'VE HAD!" Gilbert screamed. His red eyes burned with fury and hatred. Ludwig stepped back in horror.
"I...I..." He couldn't get himself to speak. He didn't know what to think. Gilbert had died, and Gilbert hated him. Ludwig felt tears prick his eyes. Maybe if he had been better, Gilbert would still be alive! Maybe he could've brought Prussia back!
"Farewell Germany. Have fun taking what would've been mine," Gilbert hissed before starting to completely fade away.
"Wait!" Ludwig called, desperately. Gilbert couldn't leave! He needed to apologize, he needed more time! Ludwig fell to the floor devastated when Gilbert only shot him a final glare before vanishing. Tears slipped down his face, and Ludwig hated himself for being so weak.
Ludwig opened his eyes and slowly sat up. He was in his bedroom. It was nighttime. Of course it had only been a dream! A bad dream. A nightmare. Only a nightmare, Gilbert was alive and well. Ludwig hadn't failed him after all. Ludwig rubbed his eyes, surprised when he felt wetness. Had he really been crying in his sleep? Ludwig wanted to scold himself, but he couldn't. It had been a horrible nightmare, one that would make anyone cry. Though would Gilbert have cried? Ludwig wasn't sure. His big brother could be pretty emotional, but he almost never cried. Would Ludwig be worth crying over? Maybe he could go ask-
Nein! Ludwig didn't need to go wake Gilbert up! He was a grown man, he could figure out his own problems! The blond sighed. He should've been getting back to sleep. It had only been a nightmare, he didn't need to keep thinking about it, but the stupid thing wouldn't leave his mind. He didn't even want to be thinking about it! He still did though, and the more he thought about it, the more worried he got about Gilbert. Before realizing what he was doing, Ludwig grabbed his pillow and headed to his brother's room.
He walked in quietly, knowing Gilbert was a light sleeper. He felt immense relief when he saw Gilbert's chest slowly rise and fall. Gilbert was there, and he was alive. It had only been a nightmare after all. That was it, confirmation, Ludwig could go back to his own bed now. Yet he couldn't. Something could happen. He could get another nightmare or a nightmare could happen in Gilbert's room. Ludwig couldn't take that chance.
"B-Brother?" He stuttered, taking a few steps closer. Gilbert groaned, the familiar name pulling him from his sleep. He sat up and let his eyes adjust to the dark.
"Hey Lud, what's up?" He asked, sleepily. Ludwig wasn't sure what to say. He was being ridiculous, Gilbert was fine. Gilbert didn't need him. He didn't need Gilbert.
"You okay?" Gilbert asked, worriedly. Ludwig was grown, he just had to lie and go back to bed, that's all he had to-
"I had a nightmare," Ludwig found himself admitting. Gilbert moved over patting the space next to him.
"Come on," he said. Ludwig moved forward then stopped himself. Gilbert has taken that better than he expected, but that didn't mean he should act like a child. Gilbert patted the space again.
"It's alright, kleiner," he coaxed. Ludwig slowly got into the bed. It was just too tempting. He adjusted, moving closer to Gilbert and keeping his pillow close by. Gilbert moved an arm around Ludwig and planted a kiss on his forehead.
"Want to tell me what your nightmare was about?" he asked.
"Please no."
"Alright, but I'm right here if you need to. Got that? I'm here if you need me."
"Thank you, big brother," Ludwig whispered, too comfortable to care anymore. He could act like a kid again for one night. It has been a horrible nightmare after all. He shut his eyes and slowly drifted back into sleep. Gilbert laid awake, glad to have Ludwig close to him and hear his soft snores. He would ask Ludwig more about the nightmare in the morning. For now they could lay in peace.
Gilbert sighed to himself as a selfish desire crossed his mind. He hoped Ludwig would get more nightmares in the future. He wanted Ludwig to come to him, so he could offer his brother comfort. He hadn't been able to do it for a long long time with how quickly Ludwig had become an adult. Gilbert really missed it, but that wasn't his only reason though. He hoped that the longer Ludwig seeked comfort from him, the longer Gilbert would be needed. The longer Gilbert would be needed, the longer he would get to stay and watch his little brother grow.

German Bros Week Day 2: Forget
@germanbrosweek
Title: Slipped My Mind
Summary: A short and silly little fic for the prompt forget and Germany’s birthday.
“You forgot?!”
“Yes.”
“How could you forget?!”
“I’ve been very busy!”
“Okay, but who forgets their birthday?!”
Germany rubbed his forehead in frustration. “Like I said, I’ve been very busy. I forgot it was now October at all.” A glance over to his desk calendar confirmed he’d still not changed it from September.
“Still! Forgetting your own birthday?!” Prussia yelled, waving his hands for emphasis. “That’s crazy!”
“Japan often forgets his own birthday as well mind you.” He pointed out.
“Yeah but he’s several thousand years old. Time is different for him.”
“And it’s not for you?”
Prussia’s posture changed to that of one of smug confidence. “That’s because I’m awesome and a day all about me must be remembered!”
Germany shook his head. “Whatever. We can do something this evening. Maybe go have dinner at a nice restaurant and afterwards the bar.”
“Okay. And you will let the wait-staff sing to you this time.”
A grumble.
“I’ll take that as a yes!”

I’m just gonna change it I don’t care anymore
Maybe day 5 can be reworded as "Teach" or something other than "Tame" - Learn/Educate/Coach? Student/Teacher? Tutor?
I think it's an odd phrasing for a platonic prompt, personally.
Though, I didn't read it as sexual, but - I immediately thought of violence/abuse/controlling toxic relationship when I saw it, and I don't think that was how I was supposed to interpret it either. - lol
I hope this doesn't come across as rude. I just think that a different word would better convey the theme you are aiming for.
No that’s fair, I’ve been talking to a few friends on Discord and they said it was a bit romantic leaning. And I I do see that now, I was just thinking “oh yeah it can be interpreted either way” but I’m just too aromantic for my own good lol /lh
I’ll do a quick little poll to see what all of you think. I probably won’t wait until the final results though as the event is soon and I don’t want to keep taking more time away from you.

Wrt day 5, can you please confirm what you mean by not allowing incest prompt fills? Often, there are prompts that would otherwise be immediately understood as a romantic shipping prompt, this one especially. Do you allow pruger/gerpru so long as theyre not explicitly headcanoned to be siblings or do you have ideas on how that prompt could be platonic? Thank you!
This is a platonic week so no I do not take ship, although again no disrespect to those who do ship them.
When I came up with day 5 prompt I thought of Prussia saying that quote to a young Germany who he is abusing in hopes he’ll become less of a wild nation and more of a soldier and empire. With the word prompt by itself I thought of them “taming” or training their new pet dog. This isn’t to say you need to do these, but that I’m sure you can find ways to make them platonic.
I’m very aro and love taking things that normally would be seen as romantic in media and making it platonic. Sun and moon symbolism, soulmates, these prompts. I also did not see how that quote would be interpreted as only ship.
If you want to do the prompt as ship you can but I won’t reblog it. If you can’t think of a way to take one of the prompts for that day and make it platonic that’s alright, you don’t have to do every day. But I’m sure there are ways to turn it platonic and I believe in you!
Hopefully this doesn’t come across as rude, I was just trying to explain my pov
