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).

I can never escape from Kuramochi always chasing, and Ryousuke (eventually) giving in.

***

It bothered Youichi far more than he would like to admit when Ryousuke was ignoring him at the bar, the pink-haired bartender setting down his usual with a wink before moving around the rest of the bar with ease.

A wink aimed at a pretty brunette in the corner before she smiled back flirtatiously, her gin and tonic appearing in the blink of an eye before she handed him far too much money and told him to keep the rest as a tip.

His attention next grabbed by a gorgeous blond man, obviously flirting to try and get himself an extra shot in his drink. Ryousuke doing his best to hide a grimace before filling the drink with far too much ice and soda in vengeance before handing it over with a smack on the bar top – fingers lingering on top of Ryousuke’s unwillingly.

It made Youichi’s heart twist more than a little in his chest. Memories of endless rainy nights spent staring out his front window, watching as neighbours dashed from their doors to cars and back again trying desperately to avoid the rain – all except for one pink-haired fool who would only walk slowly, face upturned into the spray with a keen smile on his face.

Made him think of the endless attempts to make conversation in passing on the street, once he actually found out the man worked only down the street from their apartments. Youichi spending far too much time at his own job distracted before facing numerous consequences.

“Kuramochi! If you burn a side dish one more time tonight, you're going to spend the rest of it cleaning instead of cooking – understood?” His head chef threatening before turning back towards the stove top in a huff.

I can't continue on like this… need to put up or shut up before I end up doing something far worse, like burning up the kitchen perhaps…

This was the main reason why he was here, one pink-haired, overly appearing to be flirty, yet seemingly one of the hardest individuals Youichi had ever tried to talk to in his life. He had no issues talking to everyone from his friends, to co-workers, to cute girls who sometimes hit on him at the bar… but nothing hit him so brutally hard as Ryousuke’s steely gaze.

A gaze he missed following him outside as he escaped the crowd of people, Youichi pulling out a smoke from the pack in his pocket before lighting up in the chilly air.

“Better watch out – that will be the death you.” That whispered voice chilling Youichi straight to the bone, causing him to momentarily pause his inhale – lungs burning with the effort of holding still instead of exhaling the poison coiling in his lungs.

“Maybe that's exactly what I'm looking for-“

Shocked to silence by his own admission, by the way Ryousuke only leaned closer to breathe the same air. Slim fingers grabbing away the cigarette in Youichi’s fingers, a set of pouted lips taking a slow breath on the rapidly dying cigarette – the way the burn only spread deeper as Youichi felt just how plush those lips were against his own.
