Bonus Round 4: Quotes

Quotes


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).

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

***

it’s a cliché but the way they fit together is less of a fit and more of a clash. Something like “unstoppable force meets unmovable object”. something like that but in the poetical, cosmic sense of the expression, which must surely exist — too fast paced for anyone but them to follow, but in this stage for two either you lose or you manage.

Hits don’t run out, neither do the exchanges, but at times (only at times) they wear down enough for words to fit in. Those do run out — Then, sometimes, their mouths follow.

It’s never a kiss, it’s a tangle, limbs itching to overpower and convoluted thoughts that knot together, caprice a nest of snakes that know only to swallow,
Tongues spilling with the taste of iron, of ink, the craving an itch too bloody to be red. they come out full of scratches, full of
reawakened absence dribbling heavy down an emptiness that wasn’t filled, but that was never the goal was it? it’s a hunger too deep to be sated with the missing pieces of some old puzzle.

It’s a roadmap of words exchanged that are known before they’re said. 1. “What did you want?” 2. (Not what you would like) “My time’s worth”, like they aren’t teetering the edge of ‘priceless’ and ‘a waste’.

It’s a rendez-vous of the type Natsuo stands, a different kind of fight, so nothing tender gets the chance to surface;
(though sometimes their nails just manage to scratch tender tissue — One of their gorey bits, and it startles them like they aren’t full of them)

It doesn’t feel like looking for something in the wrong place, and maybe one day they’ll be able to fill the vacant spaces with the other’s help. Sanae thinks that sometimes, not that she wouldn’t bet money on it. Mostly she’s just sure they’re both on this ride because a rope’s been weaved too tight for them to withdraw— so they keep walking, trailing the cage. lunging forward is by now only one thought away. Or maybe they’ll find an out this way, tear a way out this way — maybe the exit is just one collision away, maybe that’s what they’re meant to find in the space between them where only developed instinct and umbrage fit. she thinks that, but Natsuo’s sure she’s carved her name in the inner of her ribs. an itch over a place that was supposed to be her’s, just not like that.

It’s a certainty, so it doesn’t matter that’s not a pretty one. History is hard to kill; At this point, they shouldn’t even think to try.

It’s the way Natsuo’s hands are cold, how her touch drags like daggers. She’ll laugh, sometimes, her eyes brimming with amusement, with victory. She definitely thinks that this is the kind of game she wins by default the moment Sanae agrees to play.

Sanae bites down until her teeth force that laugh to strain. it’s a warning and a promise.

If you cut, I’ll cut deeper.

oooh thank you! this is so raw, and you really are so great at turns of phrase that convey their weird, antagonistic relationship ("the edge of 'priceless' and 'a waste'" SO GOOD). thank you!
