Bonus Round 1: AUs

[referees]

SASO 2017 is over, but this round is perpetually open to new fills (no new prompts).


This popular round is back once again! To begin this year's SASO, we encourage you to let your mind run wild with alternate ideas and settings.


Please read this whole post before commenting to ensure that your team gets the most points possible. (There are changes from last year!)

RULES

• Submit prompts by commenting to this post with an alternate universe idea, along with a ship from one of our nominated fandoms. There's a comment template below for your convenience.
  • Your prompt MUST include some kind of relationship. (This is not the sports anime gen olympics.) Platonic relationships are indicated by an "&" between the names (e.g., Izumi & Sakaeguchi). Non-platonic relationships use "/" (e.g., Izumi/Sakaeguchi). Please don't say "Any pairing," either!
• An AU can be a canon divergence, e.g. "what if [character] was the Team Captain instead of the canon captain character?", or a completely different setting altogether, e.g., pop idol AU, coffee shop AU, superheroes AU, etc.
• Fill prompts by leaving a responding comment to the prompt with your newly-created work.
• Remember to follow the general bonus round rules, outlined here.

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

Required Work Minimums:

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.

If you see anyone breaking the code of conduct (e.g., causing drama, being rude) anywhere (not just DW), please contact the mods immediately.

SCORING

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

For prompts: 5 points each (maximum of 50 prompt points per team per round)

For fills:
First 4 fills by any member of your team: 20 points each
Fills 5-10: 15 points each
Fills 11-20: 5 points each
Fills 21-50: 2 points each
Fills 51+: 1 point 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 (see the line of links below this post).

Have a question? Check The FAQ first. If you still need help, feel free to contact the mods. Happy fanworking!

MAYUZUMI’S LIFE IS SO HARD LMAO

***




Mayuzumi becomes officially fed up when Akashi's clothes stealing habits invade Mayuzumi's own wardrobe.

According to Nijimura, it had all started as an innocent request. Nijimura had thrown Akashi's clothes in the laundry after getting too adventurous during date night, and Akashi had suggested it to save Mayuzumi the horror of seeing his boss walking around the living room in his birthday suit. Not that seeing Akashi sitting at the kitchen table with bare legs and Nijimura's large t-shirt hanging off his shoulder was any better.

A lot of factors contributed to Mayuzumi's personal nightmare, yet here he was, living with the man banging Mayuzumi's boss on the regular. Mayuzumi considers himself a fairly reasonable person, so he'd left Nijimura and Akashi various clues about moving their personal activities to a love hotel. Instead, they laughed in his face (well, Nijimura huffed and turned red while Akashi smiled pleasantly), and Mayuzumi had been forced to wear over the ear bluetooth headphones in his own home.

Then came the shirt stealing.

If Mayuzumi was annoyed by Akashi wandering around in Nijimura's clothes, he nearly had a brain aneurysm when he spotted Akashi innocently wearing Mayuzumi's button-down one fated Sunday morning.

"That's mine!" Mayuzumi hisses while Nijimura works on flipping pancakes.

Akashi just blinks slowly and looks down at his clothes. "Ah, is it? Apologies. I simply grabbed these out of the clean laundry."

"Yeah," Mayuzumi mumbles. "My laundry.." He does his best not to linger on the milky smoothness of Akashi's pale legs, or the way Mayuzumi's shirt tail reaches Akashi mid-thigh. Mayuzumi is roughly the same build as Nijimura, and sometimes he wonders if he also has the strength to pick Akashi up and-

Well. Sometimes Mayuzumi tries not to think at all.

"Sorry about that," Nijimura grumbles as he slides a plate in front of Mayuzumi. "Want some?" He's already dropping pancakes onto Mayuzumi's plate without waiting for his reply.

Akashi chooses then to stand up and walk over to the griddle. "You have batter on your cheeks, Shuuzou," he says smoothly, tiptoeing to thumb at Nijimura's cheeks. Mayuzumi's shirt rides up and up and Mayuzumi promptly chokes on the water he's drinking.

"Are you okay?" Akashi asks as he appears immediately by Mayuzumi's side. His hand runs soothingly down Mayuzumi's back while Nijimura laughs at them. By the time Akashi's fingers end up tracing along Mayuzumi’s nape, Mayuzumi is pretty sure they're On To Him. "Chihiro?"

Nijimura keeps laughing as he turns off the stove. "Stop teasing him already!"

Akashi taps his own chin thoughtfully. "Should I?"

"Just invite him to the threesome and put him out of his misery," Nijimura says easily while wiping his hands on his pajama pants. "This is too cruel, even for you."

"So..." Akashi's fingers are now gripping Mayuzumi's neck. His smile resembles that of a cat who has already caught his prey. "Will you?"

Mayuzumi never stood a chance.
