Bonus Round 2: Tic-Tac-Toe
Please read this whole post before commenting to ensure that your team gets the most points possible. There's a lot of text here, but if you read carefully and follow the instructions step by step, you will be okay.
RULES
Please refer to the first comment thread of this post for an example of how this round works.PROMPTING
- Select a ship to create your prompt card about. Platonic relationships are indicated by an "&" between the names (e.g., Haruki & Kazuma). Non-platonic relationships use "/" (e.g., Haruki/Kazuma). Please don't say "Any pairing," either!
- Visit this card generator.
- Here is a visual guide to using it.
- The large text box is where you can list prompts if you have your own ideas. Please list at least 9 prompts; you can list more if you want. (The generator says you need at least 24, but it's lying.) Single words or short phrases are better than sentences.
- Otherwise, you can use the dropdown menu found right below it. Note: some of these prompts lists are NSFW. (NSFW prompts are a-ok as long as you tag for it.) If you don't like some of the options that appear in a prompt list, you can delete them.
- Text prompts only, please. Also, each card square must be unique—don't list the same prompt 9 times.
- In "Configuration Options," make sure you select 3x3 and (Normal prompt). This is the most important step!
- Leave the tic-tac-toe card with its default colors, so everyone can read it clearly.
- Click the "Create a bingo card" button.
- Scroll down to see the card that was created for you. If you don't like the prompts it picked, you can reroll by clicking "Create a bingo card" again.
- When you're satisfied, scroll further down the page until you see a textarea box full of HTML.
- Copy and paste the HTML from the box and into the body of your prompt comment, then post!
FILLING
Fill prompts by selecting an individual square to create fanwork for, then leaving a responding comment to the prompt with your newly-created work. (Optional:) If you can fill three squares from a prompt in a horizontal, vertical, or diagonal line, you get a tic-tac-toe (and an additional point bonus)! You can also just fill prompts as you please and get standard points.
- Prompt squares are labeled as follows:
A1 B1 C1 A2 B2 C2 A3 B3 C3 - If you're trying for tic-tac-toe, you cannot combine squares into one fill. If your fill can satisfy multiple squares, pick the most relevant square: e.g., one square is sailing and another is pirates and you make a fill about pirates sailing, it's mostly pirates so put down the pirates square.
- Each fill must stand alone as an individual piece, but all your fills can slot into a larger universe if you'd like.
- You cannot fill a prompt square more than once, but you can fill every square on a tic tac toe card if you want to.
- You cannot work with your teammates to get a tic-tac-toe. Only individually achieved tic-tac-toes get the bonus.
- Multiple people can fill the same prompt square. You cannot "block" others from getting tic-tac-toe.
- Remember to also follow the general bonus round rules, outlined here.
- Here is a prompt/fill index for your convenience.

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 for each tic-tac-toe card (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
Tic-tac-toe Bonus: 2 points each for the first 12 achieved by your team
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!

Early morning is a time for contemplation, and for yearning. Kunimi knows this even as he finds himself at the water’s edge, his windbreaker wrapped firmly around him. He’s barefoot despite the cold, toes curled into the sand. He appreciates the quiet of the pre-dawn, though usually he’s still asleep at this time. It’s oddly soothing in the easy rhythm of the waves crashing, fog still hanging heavy over the water.
It’s strange being at a seaside town in the off season, when people are few and the winds are strong, but he’s not made of paper and so easy to blow away. He walks a little further, a little closer to the water’s edge. It’s as good a place to stop as any, so he sits, burying his toes in the sand.
It doesn’t take very long before he can spot someone else on the beach, plodding towards him. Kageyama is barely awake when he joins Kunimi, hair still mussed from sleep. He settles down next to Kunimi and leans on him, head heavy on Kunimi’s shoulder.
“You’re up early,” Kunimi murmurs. Kageyama grunts in response, pressing closer to Kunimi.
“Missed you.” he mumbles, barely audible.
The thing with being a professional volleyball player is that Kageyama is more often gone than not, and their relationship consists of texts and missed calls, blurry photos and fuzzy video calls when they can manage. Neither of them are inclined to talk very much, and very often, calls involve them sitting in silence until one of them falls asleep. He can feel Kageyama’s absence almost like it is a physical thing, the third party in their relationship that he and Kageyama work around without words.
Kunimi understands this, and yet- something in his chest yearns for Kageyama when he is gone, like a sunflower reaching for the sun. It’s rare that they’re even in the same city, never mind together long enough for them to go somewhere else. So he laces his fingers through Kageyama’s, watches the tide roll out even as the horizon starts to lighten and the fog starts to dissipate.
He knows that on some level, Kageyama looks to him as an anchor point, a certainty in a life that is uncertain. He has dreams and ambitions to chase, pedestals to stand on and the world to prove himself to. Kunimi has smaller ambitions, things like earning enough to pay the bills, trying not to kill their newest houseplant and remembering to cook meals regularly instead of living on conbini food or leftovers his mother packs him. They’re so different, Kageyama with his bold ambitions and Kunimi’s desire to be left alone, but they fit together in a way Kunimi finds hard to explain, for all his purported brilliance.
But there’s no real need to explain it, he supposes. Some things just are.
“M’cold.” Kageyama mumbles, pressing closer to Kunimi. His arms slide around Kunimi's waist, hands tucking into the pocket of Kunimi's windbreaker. Kunimi sighs and wraps an arm around Kageyama, muttering about idiots who didn’t dress for the weather.
A faint hint of red starts to tint the sky, and they watch the sun rise together, breathing deep.

I love your Kunimi so much in this ;___; you depict him so tenderly. His contentment in solitude by the beach is such a lovely scene, but what I love most of all is that you turn it around with that line about Kageyama's absence being a physical thing, the third party in their relationship!! what a suckerpunch of a line. I love that Kunimi, who was always fine being alone, has learned to open up enough and let someone else in, to want someone else around and to feel the void that their absence leaves behind. Your Kageyama is so soft here and it's just, such a sweet moment of two very different people fitting together in ways that surprise them both. They're both people who appreciate silence and sincerity, and this moment is full of both <3
