Bonus Round 2: Tic-Tac-Toe
Please read this whole post before commenting to ensure that your team gets the most points possible. There's a lot of text here, but if you read carefully and follow the instructions step by step, you will be okay.
RULES
Please refer to the first comment thread of this post for an example of how this round works.PROMPTING
- Select a ship to create your prompt card about. Platonic relationships are indicated by an "&" between the names (e.g., Haruki & Kazuma). Non-platonic relationships use "/" (e.g., Haruki/Kazuma). Please don't say "Any pairing," either!
- Visit this card generator.
- Here is a visual guide to using it.
- The large text box is where you can list prompts if you have your own ideas. Please list at least 9 prompts; you can list more if you want. (The generator says you need at least 24, but it's lying.) Single words or short phrases are better than sentences.
- Otherwise, you can use the dropdown menu found right below it. Note: some of these prompts lists are NSFW. (NSFW prompts are a-ok as long as you tag for it.) If you don't like some of the options that appear in a prompt list, you can delete them.
- Text prompts only, please. Also, each card square must be unique—don't list the same prompt 9 times.
- In "Configuration Options," make sure you select 3x3 and (Normal prompt). This is the most important step!
- Leave the tic-tac-toe card with its default colors, so everyone can read it clearly.
- Click the "Create a bingo card" button.
- Scroll down to see the card that was created for you. If you don't like the prompts it picked, you can reroll by clicking "Create a bingo card" again.
- When you're satisfied, scroll further down the page until you see a textarea box full of HTML.
- Copy and paste the HTML from the box and into the body of your prompt comment, then post!
FILLING
Fill prompts by selecting an individual square to create fanwork for, then leaving a responding comment to the prompt with your newly-created work. (Optional:) If you can fill three squares from a prompt in a horizontal, vertical, or diagonal line, you get a tic-tac-toe (and an additional point bonus)! You can also just fill prompts as you please and get standard points.
- Prompt squares are labeled as follows:
A1 B1 C1 A2 B2 C2 A3 B3 C3 - If you're trying for tic-tac-toe, you cannot combine squares into one fill. If your fill can satisfy multiple squares, pick the most relevant square: e.g., one square is sailing and another is pirates and you make a fill about pirates sailing, it's mostly pirates so put down the pirates square.
- Each fill must stand alone as an individual piece, but all your fills can slot into a larger universe if you'd like.
- You cannot fill a prompt square more than once, but you can fill every square on a tic tac toe card if you want to.
- You cannot work with your teammates to get a tic-tac-toe. Only individually achieved tic-tac-toes get the bonus.
- Multiple people can fill the same prompt square. You cannot "block" others from getting tic-tac-toe.
- Remember to also follow the general bonus round rules, outlined here.
- Here is a prompt/fill index for your convenience.

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 for each tic-tac-toe card (maximum of 50 prompt points per team per round)

I am actually genuinely into this paisley suit

There was no way Tadokoro Jin could be a spy. He was large, and loud, and talkative. He crossed personal boundaries easily. He had a temper. More often than not, his lies tended towards “loudly denying something was happening while it very clearly was happening.” You knew where you were with Tadokoro.
Makishima Yuusuke was...more likely to be a spy than Tadokoro, but not by much. He was more awkward than charming. His looks, combined with what passed for his sense of fashion, were highly distinctive. On the occasions he attempted small talk, he either over-generalized or over-personalized. People very rarely knew where they were with Makishima, but they could feel reasonably confident he wasn't about to steal their secrets.
Tadokoro finished arranging the plate of delicate pastries, took a step back to scrutinize them, nodded, and waved for the server to wheel the dessert tray into the ballroom.
“That Takahashi-kun sounds like a real jerk,” he said. The boy sitting on the counter laughed.
“He is a jerk! A big jerk!”
“If I were you, I'd--” Tadokoro paused. He couldn't tell a kid to hit another kid, right? “I'd tell him what a jerk he is.” The boy laughed again. Crumbs covered his pajamas. There was a roar of laughter from the ballroom, and he stopped, looking guilty.
“You all done with your sweet bun?” Tadokoro asked. The boy nodded. Tadokoro swung him down from the counter and gently pat his back. “All right, go back to bed then. Good night.”
“Good night, Tadokoro-san!” the boy replied, and left the kitchen. Tadokoro smiled fondly for a moment, then sighed. He checked the clock.
Time to make the rounds.
He took a moment to straighten his shirt and make sure his pants weren't covered in flour. Then he stepped into the ballroom.
Dozens of elegantly dressed men and women filled the room, glasses of expensive alcohol in hand. Despite the string quartet playing a lively waltz in the corner, no one was dancing. They spoke in small groups, with one person occasionally leaving one group to join another.
Thus, life and death deals were made.
Tadokoro pasted a big smile on his face and looked around for the host of tonight's party, who had employed Tadokoro's catering service. And he looked for-
There. Gamely trying to talk to an elegant woman wearing a look of fixed politeness was Makishima. No doubt he had been responsible for the laughter earlier that evening.
Tadokoro walked as carefully as he could around the edge of the room, smiling and nodding vigorously every time he caught someone's eye. Large men like him always drew people's attention.
“Good evening,” he said, each time. “Good evening.”
Finally, he reached Makishima.
“...and grapes are the worst fruit, really,” Makishima was saying. The woman nodded, her eyes glazed.
“Excuse me,” Tadokoro interrupted. Makishima turned around and the woman fled, murmuring something about getting another drink. “Back of the house, second floor,” Tadokoro muttered. “It's under his desk in a safe. You can crack it, for sure.”
“Ah, our host will be making a speech shortly,” Makishima said, his voice carrying. “Try talking to him after.”
Tadokoro nodded, looking embarrassed, and went back to the kitchen. This time, he avoided everyone's eyes.
Tadokoro finished loading his van, said goodbye to the servers, and drove around the corner.
Makishima stood on the sidewalk, shoulders hunched.
“Hey, good-looking,” Tadokoro said, opening the passenger door. “Need a ride?”
Makishima snorted and scrambled in, letting his head fall back against the seat. He sighed.
“That was exhausting,” he groaned.
“Oh yeah, I'm sure. Must be tiring, drinking champagne and eating delicious food and refusing to dance.” Makishima glared, and Tadokoro laughed. “I know, I know. You hate being the distraction. You picked a good suit for it, though. What's that pattern called again?”
“Paisley,” Makishima said, not without some relish.
“Yeah. Looks like a pond. Did you get it?”
“Of course,” Makishima smiled, taking a thumb drive out of one of his pockets. “Right where you said. How did you know it was under the desk?”
“His kid woke up and came into the kitchen, so I gave him a sweet bun and talked to him for a bit,” Tadokoro shrugged. “He said he wasn't allowed to go into the office after his dad caught him playing under his desk.”
Makishima looked at him fondly.
“You never fail to amaze me, Tadokorocchi.”
There was no way either Tadokoro or Makishima could be spies. They stood out too much, weren't smooth enough, lacked the stealth people associated with the profession.
That's exactly what Kinjou counted on.
