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!

“Then we shoved a grenade down the chute, and the whole thing, energon and all, went up in a huge—”

“BOOM!” Naruko ended Tadokoro’s sentence with a jump in the air. “That’s it, Old Bot! Make those ‘cons sorry they messed with the wreckers!”

Tadokoro punched his fists together, laughing in turn with Naruko’s excitement, and the metallic clang echoed through the base. Onoda covered his ears, his fingers momentarily separated from his laptop’s keyboard to shield him.

Makishima rolled his eyes and sighed.

“Hey, what’s your attitude problem?” Naruko asked, jumping over to the safety railing closest to Makishima’s work station. “Feeling sorry for the ‘cons?”

Makishima scoffed, dismissing him with a shrug that made the blades on his back sway and clang slightly.

“Come to think of it, almost all of them are flyers, and you’re the only flyer here,” Naruko said, leaning over the railing with an impish grin. “What’s the deal with that?”

“Hey, lay off,” Tadokoro said before Makishima waved him off.

Makishima looked around to notice that Onoda was staring at him curiously too.

He sighed. “It’s nothing. When we got here to Earth, this was simply the vehicle that best matched my previous function.”

“Huh,” Naruko grunted. “So, helicopters on your world just sit around all day mostly?”

“Naruko-kun!” Onoda shouted, looking worried.

“Makishima provides much more value to our team than may meet the eye.” Everyone’s attention was instantly drawn to Kinjou as he strode into the room, apparently having heard the majority of the conversation without anyone noticing. “And his alt-mode is quite useful when the situation calls for it.” Kinjou Prime’s facial expressions were often too subtle to be deciphered easily, but in this moment he was quite clearly smirking, looking directly at Makishima.

He exited nearly as abruptly as he had entered, leaving Makishima to stifle a chuckle.

“Is he always eavesdropping all creepy like that?” Naruko muttered darkly.

“He gets it from his sire,” Makishima mumbled.

Naruko looked up at him, cocking his head to one side as his eyebrows knit together on his forehead. “His what now?”

Onoda laughed, covering his mouth and nearly doubling over on his laptop.

Makishima smirked.

“Uhh…” Tadokoro stepped forward. “Maybe that’s enough Cybertronian lessons for today.”

“No, I wanna know what’s so funny,” Naruko said, his grimace intensifying.

Makishima turned to him, grinning wildly. “Well, if you’re sure you want a biology lesson…”

Tadokoro scooped up Naruko before he could reply. “Actually, let’s go for a drive, kid. I don’t think you’re old enough yet for the talk about the nuts and the bolts.”

“I’m fifteen!” Naruko shouted, becoming slightly muffled as he became encased in Tadokoro’s hummer form.

As they drove off, Makishima looked back to Onoda, and the two of them barely managed to lock eyes for more than a beat before laughing again.
