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)

Fills 5-10: 15 points each
Fills 11-20: 5 points each
Fills 21-50: 2 points each

“Boy, this sucks,” Suga laughs ruefully, soft hair falling into his eyes as he digs through his backpack one more time for his missing keys. He can picture them perfectly on the low table of his shared dorm, exactly where he had left them this morning, but Suga has always been a man of hope, and he hopes that maybe he remembered this wrong.
Rain is falling down in sheets, silver and hazy and drenching the world into an unknowable blur all around them; but Suga’s laughter sounds like silver in the rain, too, and he’s pressed so close and warm, Daichi can’t say he minds the cold and the wet that much at all. Even if they are squeezed a little tight under the dangerously old metal awning that hangs over the front door of Suga’s dorm apartment, and Daichi can feel the back of his shirt humid and sticking uncomfortably to his skin as he tries to cover Suga as much as possible from the sudden spring downpour. There is still no telltale metal jingling of keys.
“Today is just not your day, is it,” Daichi says, voice rumbling in amusement as mischief tugs at the corner of his mouth. “You know, I’m going to forever treasure that look on your face from Psych this morning, when you plugged your laptop into the screen and everybody saw that photo of you last summer from when--”
“That was for charity,” Suga groans as he shakes his bag in frustration. His roommate was only going to be back in an hour, and they would be locked out until then. “Charity! A good cause! But I guess a monster like you would know nothing about that.”
“But you love this monster anyway.”
Daichi freezes, too slow to stop these easy words from tumbling out into the sheets of rain and the silver air and the leftover silver of Suga’s laugh; and the words hang there in the close space between them, like the echo of a small silver bell.
Suga freezes, too.
It’s their first year in university together, in this city so far from the green hills of their home, and for all the hours into the night they spend talking to each other, hearts overlapping in the soft evening, it’s not something that ever really comes up. It’s never had to be said, so easy and so difficult all at once.
“I,” Suga says. “Um,” Suga continues.
“Can’t let me win at anything today, can you,” Suga grins, poking at Daichi’s arm, jokingly, so achingly sincere, Suga’s soft laughter falling sweet and fresh like the rain in spring, and it’s everything in Daichi not to turn away blinded from the brightness that lights up Suga’s face, his smile, the press of his warm hand in his.

these lines: hearts overlapping in the soft evening and It’s never had to be said, so easy and so difficult all at once. like that entire paragraph basically, is just so. hnnng. and the way you described suga's laughter and just, suga in general, like yeah daichi, i get it, who wouldn't be in love with suga when you see him like that. the warmth between them even with the rain on daichi's back, the hopeless locked out situation and the accidental blurting of a little confession, the easy teasing between them.......
GOSH this was such a nice read, so refreshing and lovely, thank you for this wonderful fill!!
