Bonus Round 3: FSTs

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.

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

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!

oikawa doesn't even show up in this sorry; spilled a little too much poetry in this one
***
Oikawa has always been moving forwards in a straight line, steadily, readily, without hesitation, without looking back. He strides ahead with his head lifted high and large eyes bright with determination. He’s absolutely beautiful when he’s going after his heart’s desires, and Hajime has always been captivated by this boy.
Except Oikawa moves with an unstoppable force, forwards, forwards, pushing harder and faster until he’s always walking on edges, running towards the horizons he will stop at nothing to conquer. Hajime has grown up believing he would always orbit around this star of a boy, but somewhere between the twists and turns of seventeen and those brightly lit orange courts, Hajime realized his centre of gravity has changed. While Oikawa continued onwards, racing farther and farther away, Hajime remained.
And one day, Hajime finds himself alone.
Oikawa’s bags were packed and train ticket booked, only a brief hug and flimsy promise to stay in touch and then he was gone. Their friendship is strong enough to withstand the long distance between them, but Hajime isn’t quite so sure that he himself is.
He wakes up late for the fourth day in a row. His alarm continues to scream, but Hajime can’t find the will the reach over and shut it off. He’s not sure what day it is. Only that it’s been too long since Oikawa was gone.
When Hajime manages to roll out of bed, it’s too late to go to class. He sits there, hair a mess and morning stubble itchy on his skin, staring down at his phone. His lockscreen is still that stupid selfie Oikawa took on their graduation trip, the one where their faces are smushed together and Hajime’s eyes are barely open and Oikawa’s peace sign is taking over half the photo—but Oikawa’s smiling wide, brown eyes sparkling, spelling out happiness for the world to see.
Hajime really misses that smile. It’s not the same through his laptop screen.
He wonders what it would be like if he had decided to go with Oikawa. If he’d tried a little harder, chased him down like he used to, when they were still scabby-kneed brats, with a bug in hand and wild summer energy driving him forwards until Oikawa’s shirt is fisted underneath him. If Hajime had been a little braver, followed the burning fire within his chest when Oikawa told him he was moving across the country, and told him, I’ll go with you. I’ll follow you wherever you will go.
But Hajime didn’t. And Oikawa never asked him to.
So now here he is, in this crappy little apartment because he’s afraid that if he moved, his feet might just carry him to Oikawa, never mind how they’re both grown now and they both lead separate lives. He doesn’t dare move because what if Oikawa changes his mind? What if he comes back? Comes back to me. Hajime can only keep up with Oikawa’s various social media accounts and the tv, respond to Oikawa’s emoticon-punctuated texts when the guy finds the time to send them.
Oikawa has always been a one-way train, the mysterious asteroid speeding across the sky, taking the universe by storm.
But Hajime—Hajime has only ever known how to stay.

the opening line and the way it's immediately followed up by the twist in the second paragraph, ugh. and this line was beautiful --> but somewhere between the twists and turns of seventeen and those brightly lit orange courts,
/Their friendship is strong enough to withstand the long distance between them, but Hajime isn’t quite so sure that he himself is./ iwaizumi is such a steady presence that it's hard to think of it being a downside at all, but then you poised this possibility and ahh ;;
