This Round is CLOSED, but is perpetually open to new Fills.

Submit prompts by commenting to this post with a time and place, along with any character/ship/group/etc. from one of our nominated fandoms. Your prompt can include characters from any animanga title regardless of your team affiliation.
- Please format your prompt like so:
TIME: [Time]
PLACE: [Place] - The place can be any real or fictional location.
- The time can be as specific or vague as you want.
- Your prompt MUST include one or more specific nominated fandoms. Please do not prompt “Fandom: Any”.
- If your prompt includes a relationship, make sure to use the proper notation. Platonic relationships are indicated by an "&" between the names (e.g., Natsuo & Yuzuko). Non-platonic relationships use "/" (e.g., Natsuo/Yuzuko). Feel free to add additional clarifications as needed.

If Prompting
Please use the following subject line for prompt:
Prompt: [Your Team]
Replace [Your Team] with the name of the team you belong to. Nickname or Official Name are both acceptable
Copy/Paste the following into the body of your comment. Delete all instructional text in parentheses.
NSFW Prompts
EXPLICITLY NSFW PROMPTS must be posted to the After-Hours comm. To join, click here.
After joining, you will be able to access the AfterHours BR1 post.
“Explicitly NSFW” means that the prompt includes outright sexual content (whether in a photograph, drawing, or in words), and prompts that in the additional requests are asking for explicit fills. Prompts are posted with the same HTML format, in the same manner as a SFW prompt, just under the designated post for that Bonus Round in the After-Hours comm. See ‘Filling’ for the procedures for NSFW Fills.
If Filling

Required Work Minimums:
400 words (prose)
400px by 400px (art)

- Copy/Paste the following into the body of your comment. Delete all instructional text in parentheses.
NSFW Fills
All NSFW fills MUST be posted in the corresponding Bonus Round post in the After Hours community. To join, click here.
After joining, you will be able to access the AfterHours BR1 post.
If filling a prompt that has been posted on the after-hours comm, simply reply to that prompt. If filling a SFW prompt, let the prompter know by replying to the original prompt on the main comm with a link to your fill on the corresponding after-hours Bonus Round Post. Please DO NOT use the Fill subject line or Fill header when cross-linking. This will cause the BR scorer to count your fill twice.
Scoring
The scoring for bonus rounds depends on the number of people (n) on your team. You’re welcome to make as many prompts and fills as you like!
For prompts: 5 points per prompt, limited to 5 times the number of team members (5n)
For fills, where (n) = number of members on you team:
- First 5n fills: 20 points each
- Fills 5n to 10n: 10 points each
- Fills 10n to 15n: 5 points each
- All fills after 15n: 2 points each
All scored content must be created new for this round.
Additional Information
If you're hunting through the prompts looking for what to fill, a good trick is to view top-level comments only (see the line of links below this post). We’ll also have a prompt/fill database up and running soon that will help you filter through BR posts.
A Tip: We all want SportsFest to be a fun and safe environment. If you notice someone has made a mistake in their required tagging, or any other html or rules related aspect of their comment, do let them know, message them privately rather than replying - if you reply, they can’t edit the comment! If you aren’t comfortable letting the commenter know directly, contact a mod and we will make sure they update the required tags.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact a mod.

“Look at how the fountain captures the light,” Aomine said, all smiles. I gave him a half-grimace and nod, because it’s only fair, somehow. “Isn’t it, Mayuzumi?”
“How splendid,” I said, hoping he’s dense enough to ignore the bite. Then I was completely and utterly ignored regardless as he ran towards Kise, hand outstretched, as the fountains sang higher with music that seemed to emanate from the very grass beneath. Tacky, but I did live on his coin. I didn’t say a thing to the gardeners and servants and what-have-you milling about. They probably had no idea I lived there anyhow, which was the way I liked it.
I wasn’t sure why Aomine wanted me here. Maybe as decoration, as suited his needs, but who needs decoration that can talk?
At least the butler had eyes sharp enough to pass me a drink. Heaven knows I’ve enough years on me to know at once there was something very wrong happening here, but I’ve never been one to divulge my opinion. The truth was not what Aomine wanted—not what Kise wanted, though that is what I’ve suspected for a long time coming. I took a large gulp of champagne and tried to forget.
(If the water splashing over my head was any indication, residual salt stinging my eyes in a way that’s making me regret everything—I heard the shutter click and slow churn of film, and wondered how long it would be until I heard an angry shout come my way and push me into the deep for the last time.)
I won’t pretend to know Kise as well as a good cousin should, mainly because I’ve never cared to. And so it was strange then, watching him, watching Aomine in his silken bespoke suit splash around in the shallows where the Hudson lapped the beach so slowly it could be molasses. Two ill-mannered young friends dallying about on a lazy Sunday. Their smiles made me blanch; I knew a little about lost years, but when I looked at them my mind ceased all activity.
It’s as if I’m being told something, but it’s something I couldn’t figure out—until it was too late.
I remember wondering too when I saw them from the balcony as the colors whirled in and out of my vision—words that I couldn’t pronounce slipping like fish through smooth waters out of Aomine’s mouth. When had he known how to say those words? And then I remember the day he took me to meet Akashi, and shuddered.
(—There’s the devil you don’t see and the devil you can’t look away from, and I’m not sure which one I’d locked gazes with, back then.)
Kise with his golden, glittering eyes seems to take the world in some kind of wonder, his gaze following Aomine as they rounded the hall together—Aomine with each lazy wave flinging out gold and silver and every color of the rainbow as they descended upon Kise’s fair head. I was getting dizzy just looking at them, though the wine could not have helped any. Kise had been laughing, I’m sure, at least until he started crying.
I couldn’t look away.
I couldn’t look, but Aomine could, and I saw him stoop down and curl his fingers around Kise’s cheeks in a way that certainly gave no indication that Kise belonged to another. In that moment he was wholly intent upon gazing at Kise, and Kise at him, and though I could not see either of their faces I knew it was time to go.
Aomine was the sun, burning furious and bright and yet, as I watched from the shadows, there was a sadness about the two of them that I could not let go of even as I exited from the balcony. What it was I could not tell you even now, years after the fact, but it was in that moment I made up my mind to wash my hands of the affair.
That I did not follow through remains a regret.
