Bonus Round 3: FSTs

[referees]

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

Profess your love for your favorite ships with the power of song! In this round, we ask you to create fan soundtracks and use them as inspiration for new fanwork.

Please read this whole post before commenting to ensure that your team gets the most points possible.

RULES

• Submit prompts in the form of a short playlist (1-6 songs) and a ship from any of our nominated fandoms. Submit only the track listing and a link to where they can be listened to; the idea is for others to interpret what you present. You may also link to lyrics if you would like.
• Your prompt MUST include some kind of relationship. Platonic relationships are indicated by an "&" between the names (e.g., Lilia & Sara). Non-platonic relationships use "/" (e.g., Lilia/Sara). Please don't say "Any pairing," either.
• Create content based on the playlists of others! Fill prompts by leaving a responding comment to the prompt with your newly-created work.
• Fills may be in any form you choose (except for another FST of course) as long as they are inspired by/fit the mood of the soundtrack they are filling for.
• Remember to follow the general bonus round rules, outlined here.
• Here is a prompt/fill index for your convenience.

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).

i hate that i instantly knew all the songs on the list even without clicking through the links lmao o(-(

There are things about a relationship that Oikawa misses, from the quiet comfort that comes with someone’s physical presence, to the shared laughter and a sort of emotional intimacy he doesn’t get with anyone else, not even with Iwa-chan or Makki or Mattsun.

Learning to breathe again was the hardest part, in the aftermath. Oikawa’s never been good at functioning outside of a relationship; he knows this. He needs someone else to remind him to eat, to sleep, to stop him from pushing himself too far. He had been lucky to have Iwa-chan for the first eighteen years of his life, but that had stopped when they parted ways for university. He’d muddled through the first few months of university, then landed himself in a series of not-so-serious relationships, until Kageyama had happened.

The thing with Tobio-chan had gone up in flames, like he’d known it would. They’d gone too hard too fast, and combined with their past, it was a recipe for disaster. Mattsun had told him that they were a burning tyre fire waiting to happen, and he wasn’t wrong. It lasted longer than Oikawa had thought it would, in all honesty, but he was almost certain it would end badly when they started. It didn’t stop him from trying though.

For all his faults, Kageyama had been blunt and earnest, and that had been something Oikawa had appreciated. He’d been the one to tell Oikawa I don’t think this is working in that painfully honest way of his, even though Oikawa had been happy enough to gloss over the cracks in their relationship. Oikawa wonders when he’d gotten so smart and perceptive about these things, when Oikawa himself was still happy enough to deny it.

So Kageyama had walked out, and Oikawa had been angry with him for it. It didn’t matter their relationship had been difficult and fraught with tension as much as there had been good times; he hadn’t been ready for it to end then, and not in the way it did.

With space between then and now, Oikawa supposes Kageyama had been right to walk out. It doesn’t make it hurt any less though, nor does it absolve him of the things he’d said to Kageyama then. Many of them were unkind, some downright cruel. He knows he owes Kageyama an apology, but he wonders if he deserves forgiveness, after what he’d done to Kageyama.

Perhaps it was best to let things lie, and let Kageyama be free of him.

gently clasps your tswift hands in mine, it's okay friend

BUT ALSO I'M SO EMOTIONAL ABOUT THIS, this is such a heartbreak to read, but I can't help but feel so warm because oikawa and kageyama? are so much more mature here?? it's hard to qualify, but even if it ended as badly as it did, oikage seem to have grown so much since their fraught high school days, which is good, and I can't help but feel so tender about that. they're trying, by god, they're trying. I love how you show they tried.

and I sincerely love how much detail you layered into their characters here, how some of the things that once drove each other nuts is a good thing now, oikawa recognising that tobio being blunt and earnest can be good, and I ULTIMATELY LOVE OIKAWA THINKING THAT HE NEEDS TO RIGHT THIS WRONG THAT HE'S DONE. it's ok oikawa, tobio probably misses you, too.

idk I made these prompts from the softest part of my heart and I'm so happy you wrote something so perfectly atuned to that. thank you for such a lovely fill.

[dynamite]

it's ok, tswift comes for us all in the end lmao

BUT NO IT'S GOOD, IT'S GOOD, I MEAN, THESE ARE PRETTY MUCH BREAK UP(/MAKE UP) TYPE SONGS AND LIKE, I like that there is definitely angst there, but things feel like they're gonna be okay? like you can learn and move on, and that's what I love to read. it can be good going forward. it can even maybe be good again some day.

oikage is always going to be complicated!! and a hard road is not necessarily a bad one. so thank you again for such a nice fill that walks this line. <3
