sportsanime | Bonus Round 7: Recs

You've created so much during this event, so here's a round to celebrate each other's achievements!

This round is CLOSED as of 7PM on August 24 EDT. Late fills may be posted, but they will not receive points.

RULES

Recommend at least three fanworks from main or bonus rounds. Your recommendations don’t have to be connected in any way, and you do not need permission to recommend a work.
Don't rec your own work. You can recommend things created by your own team, but please spread the love to other teams too.
Each recommendation must include at least two sentences explaining why that fanwork is awesome. Please use the format specified below.
You may recommend as many works as you like, as long as they are posted separately in groups of at least three.
There will be no prompts for this round. Simply post each fill/recommendation list as a comment in response to this post.
Remember to follow the general bonus round rules, outlined here.

FORMAT

Bonus round shenanigans all happen in the comments below. Brand-new works only, please.

Format your comment in the following way:

If FILLING (all teams):

FILL: TEAM [YOUR SHIP]

Replace [YOUR SHIP] with the name of the team you belong to
- Write it exactly as it appears on the team roster (without brackets) or your team will not receive points
Copy and paste the following form into a comment and fill it out. Delete things in brackets, and leave the HTML alone. Title: URL: Creator(s): Rating: Major Tags: Why is this work awesome?: -- Title: URL: Creator(s): Rating: Major Tags: Why is this work awesome?: -- Title: URL: Creator(s): Rating: Major Tags: Why is this work awesome?: [you can copy-and-paste this format to include more recs in your comment if you'd like.]

Posts not using this format will be understood to be unofficial discussion posts, regardless of what they contain. They, like all comments in this community, are subject to the code of conduct.

SCORING

These numbers apply to your team as a whole, not each individual teammate. Make as many fills as you want!

For fills:

First 3 fills by any member of your team: 20 points each
Fills 4-10: 10 points each
Fills 11-20: 5 points each
Fills 21+: 2 points each

All scored content must be created new for this round.

Etc.

If you're hunting through the prompts looking for what to fill, a good trick is to view top-level comments only.

Why is this work awesome?: Futakuchi is a ghost who annoyingly haunts Yahaba's apartment. this is exactly the kind of thing i was hoping for when i made the prompt :> i love mundane magic or magical realism AUs, where the people involved are more concerned abt getting on with their lives than the seemingly out of the ordinary thing that's happening, and that's definitely present here. Yahaba and Futakuchi are both perfect, i like imagining how their weird roommate situation might work after this.

Why is this work awesome?: Kuroo lets the ghost of his childhood best friend Kenma possess his body for energy reasons. i think i had an extended Twitter discussion with a friend about the story behind this art - how long ago did Kenma die and how long have they been doing this? did Kuroo's parents worry abt him not growing out of his imaginary friend phase back when Kuroo was still too young to realize that other people probably wouldn't believe him when he talked abt Kenma? WHAT IF HE EVENTUALLY DECIDES TO LET KENMA GO BC THAT WOULD BE BETTER FOR HIM??? so it's safe to say i love... the concept... i love Kuroo's face and pose, too, arms spread out and looking so caring and a little worried, like he's not the one who's about to give his goddamn life force to a ghost.

Why is this work awesome?: Kuroo lets vampire Kenma feed on him. i love so much about this - the quiet intimacy combined with Kuroo's clear discomfort at what's happening despite having done it plenty of times before (i assume) and despite encouraging Kenma to do it; the physical descriptions of Kuroo's blood coming out of him; Kuroo being vulnerable, closing his eyes as Kenma bites him, nnngh. i like how it's a counterpoint to how these sorts of scenes typically go, which is kinda sexual, with the bitee being soooo into being bitten and swooning into the vampire's arms, i like that there was nothing romantic or particularly special about this. and then ofc both of them caring abt each other, Kuroo being giving to the point that he might hurt himself and Kenma not letting him.
