Bonus Round 4: Quotes

[referees]

A shipping olympics favorite, this round uses quotes of all sorts to fuel your creative endeavors.


This round is CLOSED as of 7PM on July 21 EDT. Late fills may be posted, but they will not receive points.

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: "You must be the change you wish to see in the world." - M. Gandhi
  • The quote can come from anywhere. Famous people, poetry, songs, books, movies, your neighbor, etc.
  • Your prompt MUST include some kind of relationship. (This is not the sports anime gen olympics.) Platonic relationships are indicated by an "&" between the names (e.g., Makoto & Rin). Non-platonic relationships use "/" (e.g., Makoto/Rin). 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.

For fills:

First 3 fills by any member of your team: 20 points each
Fills 4-10: 10 points each

All scored content must be created new for this round.

Etc.

"they are surely gods who speak to him
with steady voices

a glance from him drives men to their knees
his sigh brings cities to ruin

I wonder if he dreams of surrender
on a bed of white flowers

or is that the mistaken hope
of every would-be conqueror

the world was not made for a beauty like his"

"And I hate to say I love you
When it's so hard for me
And I hate to say I want you
When you make it so clear

You'd say I'm sorry believe me
I love you but not in that way"

“When the sun rises in the west and sets in the east," she said sadly.
"When the seas go dry and mountains blow in the wind like leaves.
When my womb quickens again, and I bear a living child.
Then you will return, my sun-and-stars, and not before."

Kaden: What’s awkward? And why are you petting me?
Azura: …Er, I was walking through this field when I saw you over here taking a nap. Ever since the other day, I’ve been wondering what your fur felt like. This is so embarrassing, but I didn’t think you’d wake up! I just barely brushed you!
Kaden: Is that so?!
Azura: Kaden, I’m so sorry! I didn’t mean to disturb you.
Kaden: Disturb me? Of course not! Get over here. I’d be honored to have you stroke my fur. I had no idea you were into foxes!
