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, M

Discussion of sex but no actual sex! Implied Imayoshi/Makishima/Hanamiya. Don't even ask omg.


***


"So, you're still shacked up with Makishima?" Hanamiya asked Toudou pleasantly. He reached out and plucked an apple from the display without looking, somehow managing to choose a perfect-skinned crison fruit.

"Yes, it'll be our tenth anniversary this month," Toudou said politely. While he didn't understand the reason for it, Hanamiya ggave him the creeps despite always being perfectly pleasant whenever they met.

"Oh, congratulations!" Hanamiya glanced around the supermarket, as if checking for eavesdroppers, then asked with a wide grin, "So, is he still so wild in bed?"

"..." Toudou was sure he'd misheard but what could Hanamiya have said? Is his child still dead? Has he trialed his mead? Realizing he was gaping at Hanamiya in a most unattractive manner, he quickly straightened his shoulders and said, "I'm sorry, what did you say about Maki-chan?"

"I asked if he was still so wild in bed," Hanamiya repeated patiently with a tilt of his head to the side.

There was no mistaking it this time. Hanamiya really had asked about Makishima's bedroom habits. Toudou drew himsef up to his full height, hoping the blush on his cheeks would be mistaken for anger instead of embarrassment. "That is absolutely none of your business!"

It would have been a good idea to exit then, storming off in offended dignity, but curiosity compelled Toudou to ask, "And what do you mean, still?"

Toudou wasn't going to admit how vanilla their sex life was to this jeering ape of a basketball player! He couldn't think how he'd never not realized that Hanamiya was clearly just a scheming, maleoven homewrecker!

"Oh, he didn't tell you?" Hanamiya asked, raising a hand to his mouth as if shocked. "...I'm sure he forgot, it was so long ago, he certainly wouldn't lie to you about something as unimportant as a few kinky threesomes he had during his time in England."

Toudou's fingers tightened on the handle of the shopping basket. As a weapon, it left a lot to be desired but there were some gourds over there that looked hard enough to hurt if he smashed them over Hanamiya's head.

"I'm sure they were so unmemorable that he just forgoot about them entirely," he lied, turning to sweep away. If Hanamiya said one more word, Toudou really might just attack him in the middle of the supermarket and then they'd be banned for life and this was the only place that sold his favorite brand of biscuit!

Biscuits were much more important than some fling in Makishima's past. Really. Really

Well that was an unexpected revelation indeed, I legitimately cackled at Toudou's reactions. Poor Toudou trying to keep his composure but only falling further into Hanamiya's taunts is adorable somehow :'D As always your fills really make for a good read, thanks!
