Bonus Round 3: Gift Tags
This round is CLOSED as of 7PM on July 7 EDT. Late fills may be posted, but they will not receive points.
RULES
- Submit prompts as a gift tag in the format below. You can specify the size and a characteristic of the gift, who the sender is, who the recipient is, and a one or two sentence note from the sender to the recipient. Descriptions of the package and the included note don’t have to be explicit, see below.
- Package: medium sized cube, rattles
From: Kageyama Tobio
To: Hinata Shouyou
Note: These will help you get better. - Envelope: manila, 12''x17'', very thick and heavy
From: Tezuka Kunimitsu
To: Kinjou Shingo
Note: Enclosed - Play without regrets! - Your prompt MUST include a relationship. Platonic relationships are indicated by an "&" between the names (e.g., Riko & Momoi). Non-platonic relationships use "/" (e.g., Riko/Momoi). Please don't say "Any pairing," either.
- Fill prompts by leaving a responding comment to the prompt with your newly-created work. Fillers can get creative with how to interpret the prompt: your fill can be about the character receiving the gift, one or both characters using the gift, what prompted the sender to send the gift—the physical gift itself can even be excluded from your fill. What’s important is that the gift tag is clearly the inspiration for your fill.
- Remember to follow the general bonus round rules, outlined here.

Lure
Sendou's phone is off again. Rukawa will only allow himself one mail before he snaps his own shut, because he doesn't care, he doesn't fucking care.
He picks up a ball, heads out to his bike, rides to the outdoor court. Practises three-pointers with the sun in his eyes, with his phone in his pocket, tight against his hip where he'll be able to feel it buzz.
This is where they play, sometimes, the slap and bump of one on one, Sendou laughing at Rukawa, flicking him between the eyes, wheeling past him for one more basket, one more game.
Rukawa takes a hundred shots, hits sixty-three. He buys a drink from a vending machine, stands in the shade and wipes sweat from his forehead. He wraps his hand around his phone, but he doesn't flip it open.
He switches to free-throws, then lay-ups; it's like walking in his sleep, like breathing. He stands at centre court, bouncing the ball and listening to its dull ring against the cement, while the heat of the day presses on him and sweat runs down to sting his eyes.
His phone rings. The volume's turned too loud and he presses on it with one hand. The vibration spreads up his arm and across his belly. He waits for it to go to voice mail. Then he dashes up the court, launches himself, and slams the ball home, swinging from the rim while the backboard creaks.

"You should answer your phone." Sendou steps back to let him into the apartment.
"You should turn yours on."
Sendou flicks Rukawa between the eyes. Then he puts one hand on the back of Rukawa's neck and kisses him, his tongue pushing at Rukawa's lips until Rukawa opens his mouth and grabs Sendou's shoulder. Sendou takes a step and Rukawa follows, turns, pushes Sendou's back against the wall.
"You stink," Rukawa says.
Sendou runs his thumb along Rukawa's lower lip. "I've been gutting fish."
"Bastard." Rukawa pulls away but Sendou follows up and takes one more kiss, both hands full on Rukawa's face.
"Stay for supper?" Sendou asks. He goes to the sink, picks up a knife.
Rukawa doesn't answer, but he sits on the floor, and watches Sendou's hands as he cooks, wonders, like he always does, when Sendou studies, when he practises.
"I'll come out and play with you tomorrow," Sendou says.
+
Two days later there's a package, long and thin, with a scrawled note Rukawa doesn't read, because he doesn't care. But on Saturday he leaves the basketball in the corner and takes the rod down to the dock.
