Bonus Round 7: Free For All

[referees]

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.

Bonus round shenanigans all happen in the comments below. Brand-new works only, please.

Required Work Minimums:

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).

The sudden tug on his backpack nearly tripped Himuro. The first time it had happened, he had thought someone was trying to take his bag and nearly punched them before realizing it was just Murasakibara. Now he was used to it, but it was no less startling.

"I'm not going anywhere, Atsushi," he said, shrugging his shoulders to resettle his backpack before it slipped and set off a chain reaction that would inevitably end with him tripping over at least one of their suitcases.

"Don't want to lose you," Murasakibara mumbled.

"We're almost to our gate; I'm not going to lose you." Not that it was easy to lose Murasakibara anywhere, Himuro thought. Towering over the crowd and having bright purple hair tended to make one stand out.

"I could lose you," Murasakibara said. "Like in the amusement park."

Himuro sighed. It had been an ill-fated date several years earlier. He had wanted to ride the roller coaster. Murasakibara hadn't. Murasakibara had agreed to wait by the exit to the ride, but apparently there were too many people who liked like him, at least to Murasakibara's opinion, and Murasakibara had declared afterward that he was never going to let Himuro get lost like that again.

Ever since, Murasakibara had taken to latching onto him like a limpet whenever they were out in any sort of crowd. If he could find one in the right size, Himuro was of half a mind to get one of the backpacks with leashes attached they always saw kids wearing. He saw the way Murasakibara looked at them longingly in store windows sometimes.

He nearly tripped again when his backpack came to a sudden stop without him as Murasakibara was distracted by the display of the snack stand by their gate. He reached back and removed Murasakibara's hand from his bag, lacing their fingers together instead.

"Did you want a snack for the flight?" he asked.

Murasakibara's bag was already full to bursting with food for the trip, but he bought a few more snacks just to be safe. Himuro couldn't even fault him for it; eleven hours was a long time to be sitting on a plane.

Last-minute provisions acquired, they walked the rest of the way to their gate still hand-in-hand. Himuro couldn't say he minded at all. He would never understand people whose default was to think Murasakibara was intimidating (well, except people whose only experience was Murasakibara in Serious Mode). Himuro was always put more in mind of a giant teddy bear (who also made a great pillow, which Himuro planned to take full advantage of on the flight so long as Murasakibara didn't fall asleep on him first).

This is full of such wonderful images, oh my goodness, and it's absolutely lovely and there are parts that make me laugh every time I read this (Himuro almost punching, the backpacks with leashes) and they are so fond and comfortable and

Thank you so much for sharing!
