sportsanime | Bonus Round 5: Clue

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

Sometimes, all you need are a few little details to imagine something bigger. This round is inspired by a classic board game with a cast of colorful characters, but for SASO your only limits on "who", "where", and "with what" are what you can imagine (and the SASO fandom list, of course)!

This round closes on 5 August @ 7PM EDT. (Countdown Timer.)

Please read this whole post before commenting to ensure that your team gets the most points possible. (There are changes from last year!)

RULES

Submit prompts by commenting to this post with the format of a Clue mystery - "[character] in the [location] with [item]", along with any ship/ot3/etc. from one of our nominated fandoms.
- Example: Sawamura Daichi in the teachers' lounge with the Hello Kitty! lunchbox
- The person in your prompt MAY be a member of your ship, but is not REQUIRED to be part of your ship. They must still be a named character from a SASO-nominated fandom.
- Your place must be a physical location, not a state of being or a state of being. However, this location is not required to be real, nor must it be from the same setting as the characters.
- The "item" used must be a physical object that the character can hold or manipulate.
- Unlike the board game, your prompt is NOT required to imply murder. The scenario implied can be anything at all! (As always, please tag properly!)
- 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 Clue-inspired fanwork.
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).

Underage drinking, kissing, nothing all the bad. I can only really write Lev and Hinata out of that list of ships but I gave the others quick cameos as best as I could! Except Kenma. He only plays electronic Spin The Bottle.

***

When the bottle came out, the entire Nekoma team groaned.

“What?” Hinata asked, mystified by the reaction.

“That’s Russian rotgut,” Kuroo supplied. “Lev’s family makes it at home. One spoonful is enough to get you drunk.”

“Really?” Hinata’s eyes widened as he stared at the bottle of clear fluid. “It doesn’t look that bad.”

“It’s not,” Lev said with a booming laugh. “Here, try some!”

He poured a generous slosh into Hinata’s glass of soda and then into his own. Hinata sipped at the drink cautiously and then said brightly, “It doesn’t taste like anything! It’s fine!”

“Will you have some too?” Lev asked, waving the bottle at the Karasuno team. Before anyone could think of a way to refuse, Hinata said, “Of course they will!”

In the end, both teams were made to toast to each other and drink; about ten minutes later, Lev announced, “The bottle’s empty! Now for its other use.”

This time, the groan from the Nekoma team was much quieter.

“What other use?” Hinata asked curiously, having happily consumed most of his drink and cuddled up to Lev.

“Spin the bottle,” Lev said as he put it down. “I’m very good at Spin the Bottle.”

“How can you be good at Spin the Bottle?” Kageyama asked, trying to figure it out. Did Lev had good wrist action that made the bottle land on whomever he wanted?

Lev grinned at Kageyama companionably. “I’m very good at kissing!”

Asahi, who had been quietly enjoying his drink, choked at that loud statement. Nishinoya had to pound him on the back until he stopped coughing.

“So! Are you ready? I spin first. Whomever it lands on, I kiss. And then they spin and kiss whomever it lands on!”

“We know how it works,” Tsukishima said irritably. “You don’t need to explain it to us.”

“Good, good,” Lev said, generously. “Then do you want first spin?”

“No.” Tsukishima glared at him for even suggesting it. Undaunted, Lev reached over and spun the bottle, ignoring the protests from people that they hadn’t agreed to play, they were all guys, they had a significant other, they had a cold or they were allergic to kissing (Asahi might have panicked just a little at the thought of kissing someone other than Nishinoya).

The tapered end of the bottle pointed at Hinata; Lev’s grin widened. Before he could even say anything, Hinata had climbed onto his lap, grabbed his hair and planted a sloppily enthusiastic kiss on him.

The game ended right then and there since Hinata refused to stop kissing Lev long enough to give the bottle another spin.

i want to read about kenma and his handheld spin the bottle game now. 'what are you playing??'

anyway LOVE how wary of lev all of nekoma is, love that they're playing no matter what protests he's getting, love that hinata's just going with it all. but my favorite part is kageyama wanting to know how to excel at spin the bottle.

Kenma's handheld game lets you name the NPCs and he's named them all after his team. You win when you manage to kiss each player and the goal is to beat your last score. The difficulty comes from the fact that they all have randomized dialogue options where you have to give the correct answer in order to make them willing to kiss you. XD

KAGEYAMA WANTS TO BE THE VERY BEST LIKE NO ONE EVER WAS. TO KISS THEM IS HIS REAL QUEST, TO WIN THIS IS HIS CAUSE.
