Bonus Round 4: Quotes

[referees]

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

An oldie but a goodie—in this round, we draw inspiration from famous words said by other people.

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

RULES

• Submit prompts by commenting to this post with a quote attributed to a specific person or character, along with any ship/ot3/etc. from one of our nominated fandoms.
  • Example: "That which does not kill us makes us stronger." -Friedrich Nietzsche
  • The quote can come from almost anything—famous people, poetry, songs, books, movies, etc.— but please don't quote personal conversations you've had or overheard.
  • Your prompt MUST include some kind of relationship. Platonic relationships are indicated by an "&" between the names (e.g., Natsuo & Yuzuko). Non-platonic relationships use "/" (e.g., Natsuo/Yuzuko). Please don't say "Any pairing," either!
• Fill prompts by replying to the prompt with your quote-inspired fanwork.
• Remember to follow the general bonus round rules, outlined here.
• Here is a prompt/fill index for your convenience.

Bonus round shenanigans all happen in the comments below. Brand-new works only, please.

Required Work Minimums:

• 400 words (prose)
• 400px by 400px (art)

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!

Re: PROMPT: Team Daiya no Ace

[starianprincess]

I was thinking Isashiki-nee-san (should we reuse Kaede for this? or is this their older sister, the first daughter?) asks Ryou to take photos for reference, which results in tooons of blackmail material.

tetsu is only allowed to do erasing?
There was an unfortunate incident. It's a good thing Jun was there to stop him. Now, every time they come over, they pull up a tiny desk for Tetsu in one corner of the room. And Chris sighs, says it can't be helped.

YOU'RE MAKING ME DESPERATE, TOO. NOW WE'LL BE DESPERATE TOGETHER.

Major Tags: none

Prompt:

There was an episode, one of my favorite moments in Star Trek, when Captain Kirk looks over the cosmos and says, "Somewhere out there someone is saying the three most beautiful words in any language." Of course you heart sinks and you think it's going to be, "I love you" or whatever. He says, "Please help me." What a philosophically fantastic idea, that vulnerability and need is a beautiful thing.

Re: PROMPT: Team Daiya no Ace

[hailing]

I'm thinking Kaede!! she greatly appreciates Chris' feedback and suggestions, he's like a second editor. Meanwhile... Ryou... oh my god. He probably gets Jun and a cooperative Tetsu and a very reluctant Tanba to pose and enact manga scenes for him. Too much power... (They'd let Tetsu snap photos but he doesn't. stop. he likes the camera too much it's distracting)

TETSU HAS A TINY LIL DESK FOR HIMSELF LMAO save that boy
