Bonus Round 6: Remixes
The goal is in sight, participants! Let's finish strong by drawing upon the thousands of fanworks you've created this summer and putting them in new lights.
Please read this whole post before commenting to ensure that your team gets the most points possible.
RULES
- Choose a fanwork created by other participants in a previous main or bonus round of SASO 2017 and create a new piece based on it. You could create a fanart of another work, an FST inspired by a piece’s style, a podfic of someone else's work, retell another person’s fanfic from another point of view, create a new fanfic inspired by a great piece of art... go wild! Sequels do count as remixes, with limits: "And then the same thing happened again" is not ok, but "And then some totally new thing happened" is fine, and please don't create only sequels.
- You cannot remix your teammates' works. You cannot remix your own works. You can remix fills that were created to your own prompts.
- You can remix a remix, but if we see any remix chains we'll be upset, so do this with moderation and restraint.
- You must have permission from the original creator. There's a blanket permissions post here (feel free to add yourself to it!), or you can leave a comment on their original post asking for permission.
- You must include the dreamwidth link to the original work in your post.
- Since all fills are based on previous works, there will be no prompts for this round. Simply post your fill as a comment in response to this post.
- Remember to follow the general bonus round rules, outlined here.

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 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!

Like all the times before it, it is Midorima who finds himself outside Akashi's door. Their days in middle school had him in this very spot, waiting to be let in, on the occasion that Akashi would invite him over to play (shogi, or music, or both.) In Midorima's opinion, the school grounds would've sufficed for doing either of these things, but Akashi would insist on his company, and Midorima has always found it difficult to deny Akashi much of anything.
Now, his company is not warranted or asked for, but he still finds himself outside Akashi's door; still finds himself waiting to be let in, in a metaphorical sense as much as in the physical. The Winter Cup is over, and so is the part of their lives they have all spent pretending they aren't friends. Or so Midorima hopes.
Much of it hinges on this moment—on this door, opening, and on Akashi, smiling upon seeing Midorima at the entrance to his room. (Midorima still knows the way to it by heart.)
"It's been a while, Midorima," says Akashi, sweet as a greeting, soft as an an apology.
Unlike all the times before it, they do not play either shogi, or music, as if to say that they will have other times ahead to revisit their old routines. Midorima seems to have walked in on one of Akashi's calligraphy sessions, all his previous work not strewn about the room but piled neatly beside him after they have dried. Nothing but silence passes between them as Akashi hands him his own parchment, brush, and inkwell, and nothing but wind whispers in the room as they sit across from each other, legs tucked neatly underneath themselves.
Akashi smiles again, quick, familiar, and lacking the sharpness he'd worn this past year. "Shall we start?"
Midorima nods, and the two of them bow their heads and busy themselves in their own worlds—or at least Akashi does, because Midorima cannot ignore his presence if he tried. He takes a breath, glancing down at the blank piece of paper he'd been given, wondering if he has anything significant to write.
In the end, he takes the brush and carves out a single word in black, stark against the whiteness of the parchment. His strokes are bold, as if he could cover every mistake the two of them have made, every regret they've harbored, everything they could ever be sorry for, in a few lines of heartache and ink.
When he's done, he sets the brush aside, waiting, once again, for Akashi to notice. Spring, his paper says, with the sort of bravery only beginnings ever have.
He wonders if it will Akashi will smile upon seeing it, and he wonders what that smile will say now.
