Bonus Round 1: Quotes

SASO 2015 is over, but this round is perpetually open to new fills (no new prompts).

PLAY BALL! For this round, we'd like you to take inspiration from songs, sayings, poems, and other kinds of famous words.

Because this is our first full round, please read this post carefully before proceeding!

This round ends at 7PM on June 13 EDT. Countdown Timer.

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: "Hi-ho, Kermit the Frog here!" -Kermit the Frog
- The quote can come from anywhere. Famous people, poetry, songs, books, movies, your neighbor, etc.
- Your prompt MUST include some kind of relationship. (This is not the sports anime gen olympics.) Platonic relationships are indicated by an "&" between the names (e.g., Yachi & Kiyoko). Non-platonic relationships use "/" (e.g., Yachi/Kiyoko). Please don't say "Any pairing," either!
Fill prompts by replying to the prompt with your quote-inspired fanwork.

When our ghosts grew
up, they grew together like
twined tree branches, more
inseparable from each other
than from us.

That's probably the reason
for this ache
behind my heart, the place
where my ghost used to be

before it left with you.

And I don't blame you
for the pain, it's not
your fault,
but I hope their happiness

can help you be happy too.

it felt like both a new door opening,
and a door closing shut
for him as the new star player
walked in, immediately making the
relay team with his accolades and
high praises from the coach

no room for bitterness as rumors
put to rest once he entered the water
and blew through it like a torpedo
first years, second years, third years
alike all came up to congratulate him
and i did as well, caught up in the moment

it wasn’t until later,
with deep regret did it register,
another spot on the team given away,
tunnel-vision became my reality,
as i continue to chase the backs of
my teammates and yearn for the day
we stand up there on equal footing.

It's the only time
I disobeyed you:
I picked up the phone.

I'm not dead
you're not

and I hoped that wasn't disappointment
in your voice.

I tried to remember
that I left for a reason,
but your voice on
the phone is enough
to send me running back.

No matter how
far I go it doesn't
make me any less yours.

too transparent were my feelings
that i took a vow of invisibility
no need to have a shadow like me
stand next to a bright light like you

they look upon you like you are
the biggest star in the galaxy
gravitating toward your center
pulled into your orbit, and star belt
but as stay here on earth, our humble planet
appreciating the star with billions of others

the hardest game of hide and seek,
a game i’ve rigged for you to lose,
after all, there’s no point in looking for
someone who’s already gone.
