Bonus Round 7: Free For All

Free-For-All


Let's finish SASO 2017 with a bang. This bonus bonus round allows any kind of prompt imaginable in any format. The sky's the limit!



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


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 literally any kind of prompt, along with any ship/ot3/etc. from one of our nominated fandoms, with the following caveats:
    • Large image prompts should be thumbnailed and linked to, as explained here.
    • Fanart/fanfiction/fanwork prompts are only allowed if you created the fanwork yourself or if you have explicit permission to use it, and proof of permission must be linked to in your prompt header.
    • Quote prompts can come from almost anything, but please don't quote personal conversations you've had or overheard.
    • Reposting prompts is fine, but be respectful and keep crediting in mind. A prompt belongs to the person who posted it to this round, and who can fill it is determined by whether or not they are on that person's team.
      • If reposting a br2 (tic tac toe) prompt, please post each prompt square as its own individual comment. Posting tic tac toe boards wholesale will crash our br scorer and the bonus doesn't apply for this round, anyway.
    • Your prompt MUST include some kind of relationship. Platonic relationships are indicated by an "&" between the names (e.g., Akira & Hikaru). Non-platonic relationships use "/" (e.g., Akira/Hikaru). Please don't say "Any pairing," either!
  • Besides that, if you want to prompt something, regardless of format—even formats not previously allowed in SASO—go right ahead. If you're unsure you can ask us for clarification, but tbh just go for the gold.
  • Fill prompts by replying to the prompt with a 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).

Have a question? Check The FAQ first. If you still need help, feel free to contact the mods. Happy fanworking!

Post-apocalyptic AU remix of a fairy tale? :D Warnings for char death before the fic starts!

***

“Don’t go into the dark woods,” the little wolfboys are warned. “Red Riding Hood hunts there.”

There’s a cursed clearing there, in the dark woods, hidden in the tangle of trees whose crowns block out all light and who make a shadowed hunting ground for Red Riding Hood. Mothers nip their cubs away from the dark woods, growling to keep their litter from ever straying there, and elder wolves pass the tale of warning on to the cubs.

“Long ago,” Fukotomi says, “There was a Generation of Miracles. They achieved too much for humanity and so humanity crumbled. They ran away to the stars, they mutated, they turned on each other and in the end, they tore down the Miracles.”

The wolfboys shiver, fur standing on end and their noses twitching as they draw closer together.

“All except two. The Phantom vanished and Red turned into a hunter. He killed the humans who’d killed his pack, and then he kept killing anyone he found. He lives in the crumbled castle now and if he sees you, you are lost.”

His gaze sweeps over the pack, resting on each member briefly. “If you hear the crunch-crunch of a two-footer, run. Nothing lives in the deep dark woods but Red Riding Hood.”

*

Arakita, of course, goes into the dark woods as soon as he’s old enough to hunt alone. He’s not afraid! And it’s been so many many moons since Red Riding Hood was last spotted. Perhaps he’s dead. Perhaps Arakita will be the one to find his bones and he can bring them back in triumph and take the ruined castle for himself.

(He doesn’t actually know what a castle is but he thinks it must be like a large den. If it’s very large, maybe he can even make a pack of his own.)

He walks deep deep into the dark woods, prowling on four silent feet, sniffing the air for anything. The reek of the lichen and the soggy-wet smell of rot is overpowering, though, so he shifts back a little, taking on a more human face and build. His eyesight is good in this form, sharp black pebble eyes that sees everything, and he--

Red eyes, scarlet as blood, tinted pink like poisonberry, lock on his from across a clearing and Arakita knows himself to be lost.

“Come to me,” Red Riding Hood says, voice so calm and commanding but nothing compared to his eyes.

Arakita drops to his hands and knees and crawls.
