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.
FORMAT
Bonus round shenanigans all happen in the comments below. Brand-new works only, please.Required Work Minimums:
- 400 words (prose)
- 400px by 400px (art)
- 14 lines (poetry)
- 8 tracks (fanmixes)
Format your comment in one of the following ways:
| If FILLING: | If FILLING as a TEAM GRANDSTAND participant: |
FILL: TEAM [YOUR SHIP], [RATING]
| FILL: TEAM GRANDSTAND, [RATING]
|
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!

me @ me: why are you like this
***
There are nights when the wind calls to him, when he grabs his jacket and starts the bike, bends low over it as he rides to nowhere, rides to feel the wind sing and scream at him.
These are not nights for calm, for contemplation. They are nights for feeling, raw and open and endless, a sharp reminder he’s still alive, he’s still breathing.
He thinks Nao understands, with all his soft smiles and unassuming demeanour, cups of tea and textbooks piled high. He listens to the things Kyousuke doesn’t say, reads in between the lines and never asks for more than Kyousuke is willing to offer up. He also knows something of quiet losses, concessions and giving up things you love. It’s why Kyousuke offers sometimes, lets Nao come along with him on these nights.
Kyousuke is no strange to letting someone ride pillion, from days when he used to let Heath, and sometimes Tomoe ride with him. Tomoe usually preferred to run, and Kyousuke wants to pretend that the thought of Tomoe doesn’t still hurt sometimes, like a slowly healing wound. Their friendship is a gradual recovery, hesitant and careful in a way that Tomoe is usually not. But Kyousuke knows sometimes it is better to wait for the wind, and to let it propel you forward where you are normally afraid to go.
They zip past lights and through tunnels, until they can see Tokyo Bay, stretched out in twinkling lights and dark waters. Nao’s arms are tight around his waist, warm against his back and Kyousuke thinks that the rides feel different on the nights Nao comes with him. It is still screaming singing, rushing through his veins. But it is also a feeling of understanding, of not being alone in this, in a desperation to feel like he’s living.
He drives, bending low as they pick up speed.
They pull into the driveway a couple of hours later, the sky faintly lighter with the promise of a clear, cloudless day. Nao heads up to their apartment while Kyousuke wheels his bike into the storage area, pulling its cover over it.
There’s coffee waiting on the kitchen counter when he gets upstairs, freshly brewed and with just the right amount of milk. Nao’s sipping his own cup at their dining table, offers a smile when Kyousuke walks in and hangs up his jacket. He takes it and joins Nao, who looks surprisingly chipper for someone who will have classes all day despite being up half the night.
But this is one way of being alive too.
