Bonus Round 4: Official Art

This round is CLOSED. Late fills can be posted, but they won't receive points.


Memorable canon moments, bizarre omakes, tantalizing magazine spreads—this is the round to explore them all. Bring out your screencaps, promotional art, and manga pages, and let's talk about what really happened.
Please read the rules carefully before posting!

RULES

• Submit prompts in the form of a canon screencap from one of our nominated fandoms along with a ship. Screencaps can be from an anime or manga, as well as any other kind of offshoot media, e.g. official art, drama CD covers, light novel illustrations, magazine covers, and/or caps from games. Doujinshi, fan-made games or any other fan-created work should not be prompted, even if you receive permission. Only prompt screencaps that are taken from a piece of canon media.
• Keep your prompt concise. Don't prompt a whole manga chapter, for example.
• Upload the cap somewhere (imgur works well) and post here with the images themselves or a link to them.
• Your prompt MUST include some kind of relationship. Platonic relationships are indicated by an "&" between the names (e.g., Riko & Momoi). Non-platonic relationships use "/" (e.g., Riko/Momoi). Please don't say "Any pairing," either!
• Fill prompts by leaving a responding comment to the prompt with your newly-created work inspired by the cap.
• Fills can be directly connected to the cap, e.g. panel redraws or writing fic that fleshes out the moment that was capped or that fleshes out what happened directly before/after, but fills can also be more indirectly linked. As long as the work is somehow inspired by the cap, it counts.
• Remember to follow the general bonus round rules, outlined here.

"Hello!"

They shoved their foot in the door just as she closed it - and Doubashi regretted the fact that she hadn't thought to look through the window first. The hat should have tipped her off.

"I'm here, from Best Industries, to inform you about the amazing sales going on in your area right now!" Her unwelcome guest went on with their pitch, as though she wasn't grinding the edge of her door into their foot. Just what their shoes were made of, she couldn't begin to imagine - and she couldn't ask, because they'd probably say - "It's all a part of our amazing clothing line!"

"What?" Internally, she groaned. No one was ever supposed to allow a sales person a question to answer.

"Well, what you were thinking about, of course!" They shoved their eye against the crack in the door, positively radiating at her, likely catching. "I'm perfectly equipped for the field only because of our brand! Best Boy is just one part of what we have to offer. From hats, to shirts, to bags, to shoes, to pants, to pottery, to paintings, to spare tires, to hats -"

"You already said hats." She snorted and thought about opening the door a little wider to slam it against their foot properly. Even if their heels were made of steel, something had to break first - be it her door, or their foot. "I'm not interested."

"Oh, no, maybe not in this part of our brand, but there's something for everyone!"

"Who the hell needs garbage that says 'Best Boy' all over it?" She kicked their foot with her own, wincing, wishing she had put on more than just slippers before answering the door.

They shoved through papers through the gap in the door. "We have things that say Best Boy, Best Girl, man, woman, baby, biker, dad, mother, sibling, sister, aunt, grunkle, nibling, borth-"

"What the hell is a borth!?" Doubashi couldn't help but screech at the absurd term they had to have made up on the spot.

Unfortunately, they managed to scrape their hand through, scraping their knuckles to the point of blood gently trickling down the side. "It's real!"

That wasn't an answer - and nor was the folded up snap-back with the words 'Best Borth' gracing the top.

She stared for a long moment, reaching out to take it as she said, "Who would wear trash like this?"

"Me, of course!" The moment she touched it, they ripped their hand back. "Ah, you can't have it. It's mine."

"I don't fucking want it!" Doubashi ripped back the door to slam it into their face and they just about tripped into her, tumbling into her apartment over the floor.

"Great! I'll just write you up for a different order, then? Best hulk, maybe! We've got it all, miss!"

She picked them up by the collar. "Get the fuck out of my house."
