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.

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.

Oikawa Tooru / Iwaizumi Hajime + Seijou Volleyball Club, etc.

Tales of Symphonia AU. One of the characters is the Chosen of a dying (or flourishing) world and the other character aka-their-best-friend is direly misinformed as to what that means.

MAKE ME CRY ON THIS ONE OKAY.

oh...I

[internal screaming at all these video game prompts from my FAVORITE VIDEO GAMES]

Did...did you have a preference for which pairing/team???

hhhhhhh I'M SO EXCITED, SOMEBODY KNOWS THIS GAME—

i, um. preference. i…………HELP I LOVE THEM ALL okay, in a perfect world i guess it'd be the futa/moni pairing? but not many their right mind write for datekou ~~the side-est of side-teams~~ so aside from that, i really do not favor any one pairing over the other?? i love them allllll ugrh

p.s. regardless of which pair you go with you can just pick and choose any others hq!! quest-style instead of sticking to one volleyball team's roster, if you need supporting characters ;A;

I...LOVE DATEKOU A LOT TBH Aone is My Son (and would make a perfect Regal y/y/y/y/y) but I'm not that good with futa/moni sadly ;;;;

But I will give this my best shot!! it'll probably end up all mixed like HQ!! quest to throw in all the characters BUT THIS PROMPT...I CRY...

ALL OF THESE THINGS ARE SO OKAY WITH ME, YOU DON'T EVEN UNDERSTAND

eeee thx u for considering this prompt of mine ;___;
