Bonus Round 3: FSTs

[referees]

SASO 2017 is over, but this round is perpetually open to new fills (no new prompts).

Profess your love for your favorite ships with the power of song! In this round, we ask you to create fan soundtracks and use them as inspiration for new fanwork.

Please read this whole post before commenting to ensure that your team gets the most points possible.

RULES

• Submit prompts in the form of a short playlist (1-6 songs) and a ship from any of our nominated fandoms. Submit only the track listing and a link to where they can be listened to; the idea is for others to interpret what you present. You may also link to lyrics if you would like.
• Your prompt MUST include some kind of relationship. Platonic relationships are indicated by an "&" between the names (e.g., Lilia & Sara). Non-platonic relationships use "/" (e.g., Lilia/Sara). Please don't say "Any pairing," either.
• Create content based on the playlists of others! Fill prompts by leaving a responding comment to the prompt with your newly-created work.
• Fills may be in any form you choose (except for another FST of course) as long as they are inspired by/fit the mood of the soundtrack they are filling for.
• Remember to follow the general bonus round rules, outlined here.
• Here is a prompt/fill index for your convenience.

Posts not using this format will be understood to be unofficial discussion posts, regardless of what they contain. They, like all comments in this community, are subject to the code of conduct.

If you see anyone breaking the code of conduct (e.g., causing drama, being rude) anywhere (not just DW), please contact the mods immediately.

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 each (maximum of 50 prompt points per team per round)

For fills:
First 4 fills by any member of your team: 20 points each
Fills 5-10: 15 points each
Fills 11-20: 5 points each
Fills 21-50: 2 points each
Fills 51+: 1 point each

All scored content must be created new for this round.

Etc.

If you're hunting through the prompts looking for what to fill, a good trick is to view top-level comments only (see the line of links below this post).

Have a question? Check The FAQ first. If you still need help, feel free to contact the mods. Happy fanworking!

Kise knows how easy it is to hide behind a pretty face, a laugh or a smile that isn’t quite so real but enchanting anyway. He knows sleight of hand, sleight of voice; he knows all of Himuro’s tricks and yet, there are parts of him that Kise can’t see through no matter how much Kise turns up the charm and tries to needle them out of him. It’s vexing; Kise’s not patient and he’s not used to dealing with people resisting more than a token amount. But then, if he knows how Himuro operates it goes both ways to an extent.

Himuro doesn’t call him on it; he pushes back with the sense that there are teeth that he’s hiding, guarding; Kise’s daring him to bite and draw blood, show what’s under this porcelain mask. Himuro defers, demures, pushes again, but he’s going about it all wrong. For someone like Kise, that’s only going to spur his determination on. Maybe other people leave well enough alone, but Kise’s just going to keep chipping away, pulling back like he’s digging in his heels at tug of war.

Himuro lets him stay over at night, falls asleep first, shadows of his lashes on his cheek (he’s let Kise see his other eye at least, but that seems to make him even more inscrutable, tricky like a layered puzzle, simpler at the crust of it). He drapes his arm over Kise’s waist, and it means nothing when he turns away in the morning.

Kise wakes up, cold with a dry throat; Himuro’s sitting up and he freezes like a feral cat at the top of a wall, just a microsecond before he oh-so-carefully pretends to relax. Kise’s sick of this shit. He pulls himself up into a sitting position, pulls the covers away from Himuro and wraps himself in half. Himuro looks tired, leaning on tense arms, light from the street casting streaks across his face.

“We’re never getting anywhere if you don’t let me in,” Kise says, leaning his head on Himuro’s shoulder.

Himuro’s body is still tense, as if in releasing it everything would crack, and maybe it would; maybe he’s held together with cheap glue.

“Everything about me’s boring,” says Himuro, a lie so unconvincing Kise’s almost impressed he’d tried it. “What if I don’t want you to get tired of me?”

His tone is too light, a loose piece of paper flying away in the wind.

“The only thing I’m tired of is this,” says Kise.
