Bonus Round 2: AUs

Bonus Round 2: AUs



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


This round is made for exploration of all those "what-if?" scenarios, like "what if my favorite sports anime was actually a spaghetti western?" or "what if everything was the same except everyone was actually a car?"


This round ends at 7PM on June 27 EDT. Countdown Timer.


RULES
  • Submit prompts by commenting to this post with an alternate universe idea, along with a ship from one of our nominated fandoms.
  • An AU could be a canon divergence, e.g. "what if [team] didn't win the Inter High in season 1, but [other team] did instead?", or a completely different setting altogether, e.g.s pop idol AU, coffee shop AU, superheroes AU, etc.
  • Fill prompts by leaving a responding comment to the prompt with your newly-created work.
  • Remember to follow the general bonus round rules, outlined here.

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.



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 3 fills by any member of your team: 20 points each
Fills 4-10: 10 points each
Fills 11-20: 5 points each
Fills 21+: 2 points 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.

This is ridiculous.

Warnings: None.
Sequel to THIS

The first time it happened, Sousuke honestly wasn’t as surprised as he should have been.

Of course the damn beetle could talk. Of course. Why wouldn’t it?

Sousuke regretted keeping the thing more and more every day, but when he told Rin as much, he’d just laughed and said “So give it back to Momo, then,” even though they both knew he wasn’t going to do it.

Granted, the first time it happened, Sousuke’d had a long day and was about ready to collapse in bed, so he wasn’t exactly operating at top mental capacity. But when he went to feed Pyunsuke that evening, the beetle had waved his antennae at the bowl, then sighed and said, in a surprisingly deep voice, “Jelly again?”

His reaction was probably a testament to how tired he was. That, or it was the result of spending too much time around Rin and Momo and those Iwatobi weirdos – nothing really caught him by surprise anymore. So instead of thinking he was going crazy, or screaming, which might have been the logical reactions, Sousuke just dumbly replied, “What else would there be?”

He used the same high-protein jelly that Momo recommended. It came in a variety of flavours, but after some observation, Pyunsuke seemed to prefer the “fruit” flavour (though what fruit it was supposed to represent, Sousuke had no idea), so that’s what he’d been feeding Pyunsuke for the last odd month.

Pyunsuke flicked his wing casings. “I’d kill for some real fruit,” he said. “An apple? Can’t I have an apple?”

Sousuke muffled a yawn on the back of his hand. “Sure, whatever. I’ll get you one in the morning.”

Pyunsuke settled into his jelly happily enough after that, and Sousuke shrugged it off and went to bed.

In the morning, he was convinced he’d dreamed the whole thing. He considered telling Rin about it, as they jogged together, but he knew Rin would laugh at him. Rin laughed at everything he did, where Pyunsuke was concerned.

(Rin didn’t know that Sousuke had, on more than one occasion, overheard him cooing at the beetle when he thought he was alone)

It wasn’t until Rin was down the hall helping Nitori with his English homework that Sousuke finally had time to take Pyunsuke out for a stroll around his desk top. He reached idly into the terrarium, intending to scoop the beetle up the same way he always did, then jerked in surprise when Pyunsuke bit down on his finger.

“What the hell!”

He shook his hand, and Pyunsuke detached himself to squat indignantly on Sousuke’s desk.

“You said I would get an apple.”

Sousuke just gaped at him for a moment, then scrubbed a hand down his face and groaned. “Oh god. That really happened.”

Pyunsuke clicked his mandibles, and Sousuke briefly considered his options.

“Alright,” he said, holding out a finger for Pyunsuke to climb up, then transferring him to his shoulder – the beetle scrambled up easily. He loved sitting on Sousuke’s shoulders. “Let’s go to the cafeteria.” Pyunsuke waved his forelegs happily.

“Oh goody,” he said, in that absurdly deep voice, and Sousuke silently lamented what his life had become.

I think you should do that.
