Bonus Round 1: Time & Place

Who, when, and where? Send your favorite sports animanga characters to any time and place you want—but the filler decides what they do there.

This bonus round will close on June 29th, 2018 at 11:59PM PT. (Countdown Timer)

 

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

 

Rules

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.
  

Here are a few examples to get your creative juices flowing:

TIME: Victorian Era

PLACE: The catacombs of London

TIME: Monday morning

PLACE: The coffee shop down the street

TIME: The last pitch

PLACE: Koshien

TIME: June 16th, 2018 at 4:20 PM

PLACE: 42 Wallaby Way, Sydney

Fill prompts by replying to the prompt with your time and place-inspired fanwork.

Please make sure to adhere to the specific prompt/fill formats!!! Otherwise, the BR scorer may miss your fill. If you make a mistake, please edit your post, or delete and repost if editing has been disabled.

“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.

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
  
  

Confused? Don’t worry; math is hard. Check out the Bonus Round Point Widget to help you figure out the point scale for your team.

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.

Ahhhh my summer SASO/SportsFest pairing, again we begin our fleeting summer romance.

***

"Weeelcooome," Ukai drawls when the shop bell rings, barely looking up from the inventory spreadsheet he's trying to fill out. When he does glance up, he freezes, pencil slipping out of his grip, because Takeda is standing in front of him.

Takeda with no glasses in a dark, sharply pressed suit. Ukai whistles before he can stop himself.

"Ukai-kun?" Takeda squints from the doorway.

"What's the occasion, sensei?" Ukai asks, giving up entirely on inventory and propping his chin in one hand. Not like he'd expected different, because Takeda was cute in his teacher get-up or even in his practice tracksuit, but in a suit he was…a lot. "You clean up pretty nice."

"O-oh, thanks." Takeda blushed faintly as he drifted closer to the counter, nearly taking out the newspaper stand. "My homeroom is doing a ballroom dancing lesson as their cultural festival and today was their dress rehearsal, so a few other teachers and I agreed to be guinea pigs."

"Didja have fun?" Ukai asked, even though the answer was plainly yes. Takeda nodded vigorously, rattling off half a dozen dance names that Ukai had never heard of, nor knew the English words for. What the heck was a 'fokusu totoro' anyway? Ukai interrupted, "Surprised you managed any of that without your glasses."

"Oh, well, haha." Takeda rubbed the back of his hair sheepishly. "I wore my contacts, but I'm not used to them and one popped out during the lesson. I had to toss the other one too because only having one in was giving me a splitting headache. Hey, do you want to come? To the festival?"

"You wanna dance with me, sensei?" Ukai asked, raising an eyebrow. He let it hang in between them, suggestive if Takeda wanted it to be or a joke if he didn't. It was their thing, the thing in between them that was definitely not nothing but wasn't exactly something yet either. "Doubt I'd clean up as nice as you."

"Bet you would," Takeda replied, more mischief in his eyes than usual, or maybe it just looked different without his glasses in the way.

"Fill like your principal might have a thing or two to say about you doing the Totoro with me," Ukai retorted, and Takeda laughed so hard he snorted and had to lean on the counter. Ukai wanted very badly to reach over and ruffle Takeda's hair, hard, or maybe just run his fingers through the strands. "But maybe I'd take an invite to the afterparty, if you wanted some help walking home in your condition."

"So long as you don't mind that the afterparty refreshments will consist of the one and a half beers in my fridge, you're on." Takeda grinned.

"Think we can probably do a little better than that, seeing as we're standing in a convenience store," Ukai pointed out wryly. "But other than that, you got yourself a deal. It's not even a school night, we might get you to two and a half beers."
