Rules

• Submit prompts by commenting a quote of your choice. The source may be a book, a speech, song lyrics, a movie line, popular tweets, memes, etc.
  There is no hard rules regarding the quote's length but please don't put the entire work in a single prompt.
  
• It CAN NOT be taken from a private conversation or another fanwork.
  Quotes from other Sportsfest participants or yourself are NOT allowed either as the intentions can be easily misunderstood or create an exclusionary environment through private jokes.
  
• Prompting images is allowed but it MUST include a transcript of the text/description of the image for accessibility.
  
• Please give credit to the author of the quote whenever possible.
  
  Examples:
  •

  • "Que será, será" [What will be, will be]
    ― Jay Livingston and Ray Evans, Que será, será
    
  • "Would you like an adventure now or shall we have tea first?"

I read the quote and my brain immediately went to Adventure Zone. I dunno either.
***


“I can’t do this. I can’t not again.” Ennoshita refuses, the transparent bubble surrounding him shimmering in the light emanating from his staff.

”We have to. You know we do, we just need to get to the ship and then we can start over again somewhere else.” Daichi stands at his full height looking up at him challengingly.

”If we leave we’re destroying this world and damning them all. Is that what you want Daichi?” Ennoshita counters.

”And if we stay here then we all die and it’s all for naught.” Daichi reminds him with one hand on his spaceship.”The world is destroyed and we die along with it. That bubble of your /might/ protect them, but what happens if it doesn’t. Then we’re dead too and the Hunger wins, is that what you want?”

”But what if my bubble does work? Then we’ll be safe.” Ennoshita insists not letting down the sphere around him.

While those two were going back and forth the other people in the room were looking at them in various stages of concern. Team Sweep Flips, Hana and Kiyoko were barricading the door so nothing could get in but had their eyes glued to the exchange. Kageyama, the boy genius, looked terrified knowing that if they flew away his world would end right then and there. “Senpai?”

That was enough to jostle the wizard out of their stupor. “No. Daichi, Chikara we don’t need to do this, there’s always a third option. Just this once. Just this once we need to make sure everyone lives!”

As if hearing their wizard speak jolted the other two int action. “Koushi’s right!” Bokuto says trying not to trip over his own axe and back him up. “There’s gotta be something else we can do. We can’t just destroy this world.”

”Yea!” Oikawa points out, “We’ve spent so much time on this planet, I don’t want to just let it get destroyed without working to save it.”

The liech overhead sends a ghostly thumbs up to his twin. “I’m technically already dead but he’s got a point.”

”Semi you are literally an elf shaped ball of magic, that’s not exactly dead.” Suga bickers back.

”I’m incorporeal dingus, so technically I’m a ghost.”

”Ghosts can move chairs, can you move a chair?”

”I can cast a fireball on your-”

Daichi clears his throat before the twins start. “And how do you expect us to do that. The hunger will be here any minute and quite frankly I don’t see how now is different from any other time.”

”I’ve got an idea, it involves both Chikaras barrier and Daichis ship but if it works we can save this world and every other world from the Hunger for good.” Suga says with such convection that it gets Ennoshita to drop his barrier.

”Alright Suga, tell us your plan.” Ennoshita asks still looking weary,

”Gladly.” Suga says before filling everyone in the room in on his plan.
