A lot can be said in just three words, and we're challenging you to do just that in this bonus round! From your "I love you"s to your "red, white, blue"s, you'll have just three words to prompt and be prompted.

This round is now closed!

However, it is perpetually open to new fills!

Rules

Submit prompts by commenting any three words of your choosing! This can be a phrase or a list of words. Example:
- Please don't go
- Morning, flower, kiss
- Past, Present, Future
Prompts can be in any language as long as you provide an English translation!
Fill prompts by creating fanworks inspired by all three words, or only one or two! The choice is yours.
You cannot earn points by filling your teammate's prompts or your own! (That said, we won't stop you from doing so for fun!)
You must use the prompt/fill headers below, and you cannot leave any line blank!

Format

Required Work Minimums:

400 words (prose)
400px by 400px (art)
- Traditional art is also allowed with a good quality photo/scan
14 lines (poetry)
Playlists - 5 song minimum with artists. Link to either a video playlist, or each song separately. Be sure to warn for content in the music videos, and you may find linking to lyrics helpful. You may also write an explanation of why you chose each song.
Moodboards - 9 photo min, source all photos, and no fanart allowed (unless it's your own)
If you’d like to use a different medium, please contact the mods if you have any questions about minimum requirements.

There is no max work cap.

"Do you ever miss dancing in girl-pairs?" Shizuku asked one night. The two girls sat in the studio, still dressed in their practice clothes, backs against the mirror. It was late.

Chinatsu bit her lip.

"Sometimes," she answered. "Of course. I fell in love with dance that way. I-" she paused, and her mouth twisted into something bitter and sad. "I loved dancing with my friends."

Shizuku fought the urge to reach out, to cover Chinatsu's hand with her own. I understand, she couldn't say; she didn't know Chinatsu well enough yet, but Shizuku knew what it was like to talk about dance and have your heart twist at the same time.

"Well," Chinatsu continued brightly. She slapped her thighs. "You can't do girl pairs forever, right? Professional dance doesn't allow it. And Tatara is a surprising leader."

"He is," agreed Shizuku. "I've danced with Kiyoharu my whole life, and it was so strange, dancing with Fujita that time. But he made it to the next round even though he'd never danced before." She shook her head, smiling. “I wonder what it would be like, though, if dancesport allowed girl-pairs.”

Chinatsu sucked in a breath. Then she laughed.

“It would be ridiculous! Would they both wear dresses, do you think? Or would it be like in juniors, where the leader dresses like the men?” She laughed again. “Although, I do miss leading, sometimes.”

Shizuku hummed and leaned forward to rest her head on her knees. She thought about Chinatsu in a tail suit, one that emphasized the breadth of her shoulders and length of her legs, her eyebrows darkened and hair pulled back in a chignon. And then she let herself picture Chinatsu's hair loose around her shoulders-- that would never be allowed, of course, but then, neither would a professional girl-pair-- heavy and bright, swinging out like the skirts of a dress and tickling Shizuku's hand where on her shoulder. She imagined Chinatsu confidently leading, the two of them shining and drawing all eyes to them, the best dancers on the floor.

“Shizuku?” Chinatsu was standing in front of her, looking worried. “Are you all right?”

“Oh.” Shizuku hadn't even noticed Chinatsu moving. “I'm fine; just tired.”

“It's late,” agreed Chinatsu. She held out a hand. “Can I ask- why were you asking about girl-pairs?”

Shizuku took Chinatsu's hand, allowing her to pull her to her feet.

“No reason.”

THIS IS SO CUTE and also sad and tender, thank you!! i love the (loud!!) unspoken thoughts and the dialogue!!! Excellent<333
