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.

FILL: Team Arakita Yasutomo/Fukutomi Juichi, T

[stereosymbiosis]

Warnings: alcohol consumption and allusions to sex
Word count: 434

“You guys,” Toudou says, their speech a little slurred, “you know what would be so cool? Let’s use code names!” They lift their beer and take a delicate sip, giggling into the can.

“What the fuck do we need code names for? We’re just sitting around, we’re not going to, like, break into a building or --” Arakita is interrupted by Toudou’s beer-sticky fingers pressing Arakita’s lips together like a duck’s bill.

“Shhhh,” Toudou says, very seriously, wiggling Arakita’s lips back and forth until Arakita shoves them unceremoniously back to their seat in Makishima’s lap.

“Maybe this second beer is not such a good idea,” Makishima says as Toudou starts to thread their fingers through her hair, though she doesn’t make any effort to take the beer away from them.

Tadokoro laughs next to her, and it’s like his laugh takes up the whole room. “I can’t believe they had one beer and they’re already wasted.”

“I can,” Makishima says wryly. Fukutomi solemnly nods in agreement across the circle.

“No, seriously, code names,” Toudou says, as though the conversation between Makishima and Tadokoro never happened. “I’ll start! I’ll be...Eagle One!”

“That’s a stupid code name,” Arakita says as they pop open another beer can. It hisses unpleasantly, Toudou observes, much like their personality.

Toudou turns back to Arakita and points and them. “Arakita -- you’re Been There, Done That.” Arakita, just about to take a sip of their beer, pauses comically. Toudou can see a vein pulsing angrily in their forehead and feels oddly satisfied.

Before Arakita can react further, Toudou turns to Makishima, who is much closer than they originally thought. “Oh, hi,” Toudou says, and pats Makishima’s cheek. “Maki-chan, you’re Currently Doing That.”

A rush of color invades Makishima’s cheeks and she mutters “Jinpachi” under her breath, but Toudou feels her fingers settle comfortably on their back and rub slow circles, so they figure it’s all right.

Toudou moves on to Tadokoro, next in the circle. “Tadokoro! You can be It Happened Once In A Dream!” Tadokoro laughs again and is almost about to spill his beer all over the carpet when Kinjou takes it from his grip.

“Kinjou, you’re If I Had To Pick A Dude,” Toudou says, and Kinjou contemplates this for a moment.

“I’m good with that,” he says, passing the beer back to Tadokoro, who has mostly composed himself.

Toudou turns to Fukutomi, whose eyes are wide and shoulders tense with apprehension. “Fukutomi! You can be...Eagle Two!”

“Oh, thank God,” Fukutomi says, releasing a violent rush of air.
