  • 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.

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

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.

***

It’s only two minutes after the train pulls out, and all the crowd’s gone from the platform, that Shinsuke emerges from behind the magazine stand with a lantern in his hand.

On the bench, there’s an onigiri someone left behind. It’s still wrapped up in plastic with a Lawson’s sticker on it. Atsumu had complained that packing was hungry work and he was starving, and Shinsuke had told him to be patient, poured out the last of the tea to share. Osamu had made it that afternoon. The dusky flavour of oolong and salt’s still darkening the back of Shinsuke’s throat.

Shinsuke stops to pick up the onigiri and holds it up to the lantern. It’s a plain rice ball with ume, nothing special, except for that unspoken farewell glowing faintly from the inside. Illuminated by his light, there’s a vein of longing that runs straight down the middle of the onigiri and splits the pickled plum in two. This will satisfy Atsumu for the rest of the night. For Shinsuke, there is greater prey; he can smell it, a lingering emotion near the edge of the platform that makes all his senses tingle. There's nothing quite like the taste in the air when a late train’s just left and there have been so many people here, so many people with their mouths full of goodbyes, some they could not say, some they made a mess of saying, some they left behind like this onigiri. They are survivors, this little band of Shinsuke’s. They have found a shrine to feast on more than prayers.

Shinsuke finds Osamu lurking where his lantern guides him. He’s sitting with his legs dangling over the tracks, hair streaked with sky and dust.

“I found this,” he says, and holds out his hand as Shinsuke comes up to him. There’s something in it that pulses like gold and ashes in the dark. Even from a distance, Shinsuke can tell how strong it is.

“I’ll trade you an onigiri for it,” Shinsuke offers.

Osamu raises his eyebrows. “Are you sure Atsumu doesn’t want it?”

“You’re hungry too, aren’t you?”

“Yeah. But he’s noisier about it.”

“I don’t play favourites based on noise,” says Shinsuke, and sits down next to Osamu, who takes the onigiri from his hand. In its place, he presses a plastic spoon into Shinsuke’s palm. It is mostly smooth and a little sticky. It is still warm where Osamu has been holding it, round the handle.

Shinsuke closes all his fingers around it and brings it to his mouth.

The first thing he tastes is the tea. Ren is fond of gently poking fun at him for it, that it is always tea, with him, that he could pick a memory of the mildest sencha from the mere whiff of a cup that once held a single leaf. This is oolong and salt, achingly familiar, and beneath all that, the unmistakable flavour of caramel pudding.

Shinsuke opens his eyes and looks at Osamu. He is sitting with the onigiri still unwrapped in his lap, staring out at the tracks. He does not meet Shinsuke’s gaze.

“You didn’t find this one,” Shinsuke says. “It’s yours, isn’t it.”

Osamu shoots him a knowing look from the corner of his eye. He stretches his arms overhead, yawns, and glances back towards the magazine stand. Aran’s fronting the counter today, and Atsumu, probably, is somewhere at the back trying to sit on his luggage to close it.

“Well, I’d better go feed Atsumu before he leaves,” says Osamu, putting the onigiri in his pocket.

“Wait,” Shinsuke murmurs. He takes the jacket from his shoulders, places it around Osamu’s. “It’s a cold night. Take this. And this too.”

He bites down on the half of the spoon that’s in his mouth and breaks the handle off with a decisive snap, careful to leave no trace of his own lips on it. It is all Osamu, all Osamu’s loves and considerations, little cruelties and things he took for granted, kindnesses bigger than Shinsuke can swallow, for they are not meant for him.

“Give it to Atsumu yourself,” Shinsuke says, quietly.

Osamu turns away so Shinsuke’s lantern cannot catch his face. He stands up, and leaves, his smile a fleeting thing that disappears in the wake of a future train.
