sportsanime | Bonus Round 4: Quotes

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.

Poem, 19 lines

Permanently deep, down and down and down he drowned,
darkness seeping into all corners until all he could see was the night;
splashes of red and purple the only contrasts seared with pain.

It lessened over time,
colors still desaturated to different shades of grey and brown,
the ache tugging less on his muscles the more time he spent stretching them to fullness,
yet collected rage needed someway to manifest itself and escape his clutches.

Showing its form with teeth and claws in the frustration of pitchers under his care,
the bite of harsh words doing nothing to calm the ache inside his chest,
finding himself sinking deeper and deeper still until the hope of one last chance
seemed altogether unattainable and grey.

Then the unthinkable happened,
a light appeared so bright and shining that all Chris could do was hurl it as far away as possible,
crush its blinding aura to stop the stinging of his eyes and ringing in his ears,
but no matter what he tried the first-year stuck by his side.

Positivity simply infectious until he could see them returning;
deep blue of the sky, green of the fields and yellow of the brightest sun.

The start of recovery thanks to one stubborn pitcher who would never let him fall again,
Chris silently thanking him all the way back into the light.
