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.

So long as Karasuno wins Nationals then the ends have justified the means.

Even if Sugawara spent most of his third year on the bench.

Even if his total playtime throughout the whole tournament was no more than ten minutes.

In the end, if Karasuno wins then he won as well.

Because that’s all that matter in the end right? Them winning was the goal everyone wanted.

Sugawara wasn’t selfish so even if it came at his expense he would do what the team needed in the end to win. Even if the last toss of his teams' high school career would come from another setter, even if the last spike Asahi hits was tossed by another setter who still had two more years to make it. Even if the ball Daichi received would go to someone else.

In the end, as long as Karasuno wins Sugawara wins too.

He can’t complain, he told Ukai to keep Kageyama in for the good of the team, it was his own choice. And then he still got more playtime than Kinoshita, who might as well not even show up in uniform.

So there was no problem. Even if he was only put in for one set and only used to throw the other teams' spikers off. He might never play a full set as a setter again, he knew it was a possibility, but the reality is only now setting in.

With every set, every volley, every point that goes on the board Sugawara’s high school volleyball career comes closer and closer to ending and all he can do is sit there and watch it happen. In the end, he agreed to this, to become a backup, a sideliner in his own story.

Sugawara is little more than a bystander in the end. He can give as much advice as he wants and can tell people what he’s noticed all he can but if he’s not the one acting on it, he’s taking the chance that another person’s decision could outweigh his last minute.

In the end, as long as he isn’t the one on the court his words just weren’t as important as the others who were on the court. Sugawara's previous experience no longer mattered when he wasn’t a player. He and the bench were becoming close friends. Kageyama was better than he ever could be, but he’d been accepted that as a fact.

In the end, as long as the first year pair brings Karasuno to win Nationals then the ends have justified the means.

At least that’s what Sugawara tells himself.

Oh, poor Suga...

Thank you for the fill!
