Bonus Round 4: Quotes

[referees]

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

An oldie but a goodie—in this round, we draw inspiration from famous words said by other people.

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

RULES

• Submit prompts by commenting to this post with a quote attributed to a specific person or character, along with any ship/ot3/etc. from one of our nominated fandoms.
  • Example: "That which does not kill us makes us stronger." -Friedrich Nietzsche
  • The quote can come from almost anything—famous people, poetry, songs, books, movies, etc.— but please don't quote personal conversations you've had or overheard.
  • Your prompt MUST include some kind of relationship. Platonic relationships are indicated by an "&" between the names (e.g., Natsuo & Yuzuko). Non-platonic relationships use "/" (e.g., Natsuo/Yuzuko). Please don't say "Any pairing," either!
• Fill prompts by replying to the prompt with your quote-inspired fanwork.
• 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).

FILL: TEAM PRINCE OF TENNIS, T

[fickle]

Ship: Imayoshi/Hanamiya + Hanamiya & Hinata/Kageyama
Fandom: Kuroko no Basuke, Haikyuu
Major Tags: tags omitted
Other Tags: tags omitted
Word Count: 433 words

Implied domestic violence though knowing Hanamiya and Imayoshi, it was probably just kinky rough sex. Also emotional manipulation.


***

"That looks awful!" The little redhead said, leaning in and eyeing the scar on Hanamiya's throat. He reached up and traced over it with unsteady fingers, eyes glazed and a little hazy behind the sunglasses.

He was very drunk, Hanamiya judged. Why else would he be wearing sunglasses inside a bar? The calloused touch of his fingers gave away he was an athlete of some sort though he was so short that Hanamiya had trouble imagining what he could play. Ping Pong, perhaps? It was tennis for little people.

Hanamiya tilted his head a litte, just enough to show off the fading bruises near the corner of his mouth where one of Imayoshi's punches had landed poorly.

As soon as the redhead saw it, he gasped, his free hand flying up to his mouth. "What happened to your mouth?"

His rich brown eyes fixed anxiously on Hanamiya's face, the small redhead radiating concern. "Is someone beating you up?"

"My boyfriend can be a litte moody," Hanamiya said, ducking his head and letting his eyelids lower in feigned shame. "It's not really a big deal."

"Yes, it is!" The boy insisted. He took Hanamiya's hand within both of his and squeezed tightly. "If someone's hurting you, you shouldn't stay with them! You should tell the police! Come on. You can come with me ad Tobio right now. We'll take you to the police and help you move your things out-- do you have anywhere to stay? If not, you can live with us!"

Hanamiya bit the inside of his cheek hard to stop himself from laughing at the boy's naivete. How could he invite someone he'd just met to move in with him? He had no idea who Hanamiya even was!

He caught sight of Imayoshi returning towards him and gave a quick, warning shake of his head which the redhead misinterpreted as being for him.

"No, really! It'll be okay." He beamed up at Hanamiya, perfectly confident in the role of self-assigned protector. "You do't have to live like this, you know. You're very handsome. There'll be plenty of other men out there who'll love you and treat you right."

Oh? Was that a hint of attraction in the boy's words? Breaking up happy couples was more of a sideline for Hanamiya rather than his main form of entertainment but he might be willing to devote himself to this case full time. The redhead was cute and living with them would be an interesting way to spend the next few weeks.

No relationship could last more than that with Hanamiya meddling in it.
