Bonus Round 7: Free For All

Free-For-All


Let's finish SASO 2017 with a bang. This bonus bonus round allows any kind of prompt imaginable in any format. The sky's the limit!



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


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 literally any kind of prompt, along with any ship/ot3/etc. from one of our nominated fandoms, with the following caveats:
    • Large image prompts should be thumbnailed and linked to, as explained here.
    • Fanart/fanfiction/fanwork prompts are only allowed if you created the fanwork yourself or if you have explicit permission to use it, and proof of permission must be linked to in your prompt header.
    • Quote prompts can come from almost anything, but please don't quote personal conversations you've had or overheard.
    • Reposting prompts is fine, but be respectful and keep crediting in mind. A prompt belongs to the person who posted it to this round, and who can fill it is determined by whether or not they are on that person's team.
      • If reposting a br2 (tic tac toe) prompt, please post each prompt square as its own individual comment. Posting tic tac toe boards wholesale will crash our br scorer and the bonus doesn't apply for this round, anyway.
    • Your prompt MUST include some kind of relationship. Platonic relationships are indicated by an "&" between the names (e.g., Akira & Hikaru). Non-platonic relationships use "/" (e.g., Akira/Hikaru). Please don't say "Any pairing," either!
  • Besides that, if you want to prompt something, regardless of format—even formats not previously allowed in SASO—go right ahead. If you're unsure you can ask us for clarification, but tbh just go for the gold.
  • Fill prompts by replying to the prompt with a 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!

all i have to say about this is that inspiration sometimes strikes in the weirdest of ways, and thats okay o|-(

***

When Kei invites her over, Natsuo is… surprised. She doesn’t want to say she’s shocked but she knows that the way she opens her eyes at Kei, disbelieving and questioning, doesn’t leave much room for other assumptions.

Kei just parts her lips, a smile that could rival light itself with its brightness, and asks in an almost melodic voice:

“Is it the first time a friend invites you over, Na-chan?”

Followed by a laugh at however it is Natsuo contorts her face in response.

“No, it’s not the first time—“ It’s just been…

a while.

Kei’s laughter passes softly, drowned by a hum that acknowledges the reply without pressing any further. It occurs to Natsuo that Kei is capricious in a way — The way she’ll call her out one second, then kindly give her space in the other, with no frequency nor pattern she can pick upon.

Maybe she just doesn’t get her that well quite yet.

“Well, in any case, you are welcome to come home with me.” Sometimes Natsuo is fairly sure Kei’s eyes fall on her with brimming, barely-contained amusement. She thinks she might be doing it now. “I know you have training in the evening so I won’t keep you long. I just want to show you something.”

Kei’s possibly-amused face shifts to excitement. She’s practically vibrating with it. (It’s cute.)

“What is it?”, Natsuo asks, though she already knows the answer.

“It’s a secret.”

—

It might be worth clarifying that when Natsuo thought she knew the answer, she meant that there would be no answer. But even then, what Kei ends up showing her as soon as they’re past the front door and into the living room is… not really what she had expected.

“Ah, she’s just a little, playful”, Kei explains apologetically as she picks up a thin, black cat from between what could only be described as a small chaos of destruction — torn apart news papers and bits of cat food everywhere, a bowl knocked over offering a persuasive explanation to that… she steals a look at the curtains and sure enough there’s little wholes in the fabric, torn around the top in a shape that couldn’t look as anything but a claw-mark. There’s a… corpse, of what probably used to be a mouse toy once upon a time (like maybe this morning) laying gutted with its cottony insides all over the place in such a fashion that it strikes Natsuo as gory.

A fluffy mug getting shoved under her nose stops her casual damage assessment. From above it she can see Kei grinning like she isn’t standing in the middle of a disaster zone.

“Na-chan, this is Nana! I rescued her yesterday!”

(… N-Nana…?)

“Rescued?” The cat wiggles in the air. Kei presses it over her shoulder before it gets a chance to autograph Natsuo’s face.

“Mhm! See, she’s roamed the neighborhood for a while now.” Kei puts the cat own. It immediately sprints towards nothing, jumps like a malfunctioning string in the air, and tackles an unsuspecting sock like it will knock the life out of it that way. “She doesn’t like people and kept killing the birds around. She also beat up a couple of domestic cats, I think? It was really troublesome.” It sounds dumb but Natsuo’s pretty sure the cat is beating up the sock, biting it and clawing at it with its hinder legs, springing to its feet and swinging it around in its mouth, then running across the room with it. “A few neighbors where even talking about putting her down. Can you believe it?”

The cat drops the sock at Kei’s feet, with way more pride than an already dead trophy deserves. Weirder than that though, is that it stops in the middle of rubbing around Kei’s legs to stare up at Natsuo.

And bristle.

“It took a while to get her to trust me enough that it’d come inside, and let me take her to the vet, and all that—“ Kei, either unaware or unconcerned by the glares being exchanged between Na-chan and Nana-chan, wraps up the story. “But now she’s finally here! Isn’t she cute?”

Natsuo can’t help but notice that the cat lets Kei pick it up and hug it unexpectedly easy. Or that it bumps against her lips when she places a kiss on her forehead.

“So, Na-chan, what do you th—“

“Kei, that cat—“ is evil… no, even she knows she shouldn’t say that. “has a terrible personality.”

Kei looks at her, halting in the middle of flattening the little demon’s fur with kisses. Blinks.

Then laughs, like Natsuo made a joke. (Wait, hasn’t she heard that phrase before, actually—? Ah.)

She’d blush if she were the type, and right now she’s doing her best to stubbornly believe that she’s not.

“Maybe I like them that way”, she replies, the end of her sentence muffled against Nana-chan’s whiskers pressing against her cheek. The cat is purring like a motorcycle and isn’t shy about demanding (and stealing) Kei’s attention.

Natsuo is jealous.

ahh this is really cute! thank you! i love kei's sly 'is this the first time a friend invites you over?' and flustering natsuo, but also not making too much of a thing about it. i love kei and natsuo's relationship, and you did a great job portraying how kei wrong-foots natsuo sometimes, and still lets her be herself.

and the cat! the cat is such a great touch, vicious and possessive and a little smug, and of course kei adores her and of course natsuo is jealous. "Maybe I like them that way," she replies !!! so good! i love this! thank you

im glad you liked it! when i was thinking of ways to fill this prompt i randomly remembered my other favourite kei scene (she looking at natsuo and thinking "its like looking at a stray cat :-) ~") and i guess it snowballed from there?

it looked like a fun way to explore them both so I'm glad you enjoyed it o)-(
