- 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
Minimums
Required Work Minimums:
400 words (prose)
400px by 400px (art)
14 lines (poetry)
There is no max work cap.

- Find a guide to tagging HERE.
- 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.

in the park
There are three boys standing over him as he has his back pushed down on the grass. They tower over him, though you could easily tower over them all, and their bags and picked-up sticks look like cheap props to an unsightly play. You see their taunts and laughs, and though you were never one to intervene in other people’s business, you see him desperately holding back tears, face snot-ridden and red with embarrassment. Looking at the three boys, you think, how lame.
at practice
You watch as her serves, over, and over, and over, again; with the intention of catching up to you, and orange and blue, three of you already on the court while he feels thrown to the side, as though he is worth less. You watch as he works, over, and over, and over, again; as his back moves further and further out of reach, time on the court increasing but it never feels like he’s with you, only distant, and so, so, far away.
He is never there on the other side of your study table anymore, and somehow you stop seeing him at his class for lunch.
His back moves further and further out of reach. You wonder when it began to vanish.
in your kitchen
He’s bustling about your kitchen, his back towards you as he boils water to make you both hot tea. You are seated at your dinner table, the world a glassed prism in front of you. You can’t remember the last time he’s come over, studies and looming university choices separating the 20 minute walk between your houses into miles that seem to stretch on forever.
The high-pitched boil of the kettle is the only sound between the two of you, and words surround the two of you like a distant memory instead of an actual reality. Something within you boils just as ugly, like heat-burned red, a mark of vibrating fury. You wonder if these words will ever leave your lips; if there will be a chance to hold him again as he sleeps, sleepovers from when you were younger much mee than a whim. There are pillows untouched and blankets left vacant between you and him, movies unwatched and a singular secret unshared for half your friendship.
When he turns and places the cup of tea in front of you, you let 96 degrees scald your tongue, consigning your desires to the burn down your throat. Swallow these words, you convince yourself. It is what must be done.
at home
Here are a list of things he’s left behind: a scratch on your PS3 from fifth grade, tickets to a theme park not long after you first met, faded pictures from middle school games your parents insisted for you to take, a forgotten, rolled up sock in the back of your closet, an old dinosaur cup from when you were eleven, a bunch of mock test papers underneath your desk and a dusted, blotted out version you.
after a party
You’re sitting in a car, with a beautiful boy who won’t tell you that he loves you, but he loves you. His eyes are two dams about to break, desperately holding back tears, face snot-ridden and red from embarrassment. You feel like you’ve done something terrible, like you’ve stolen a child from a widow, like you’ve robbed riches from a bank, like you’ve snatched the first kiss from your best friend, without his permission, in front of everyone at a frat party and you did. Oh, you did.
You’re sitting in a car with a beautiful boy and though you want nothing than to pull him into your arms and hug him for as long as forever, you’re trying to choke down the feeling, to resist, but he reaches over and touches your chin, makes you look directly at him, and with his smile you feel like you’ve risen up to heaven, this moment lasting longer than your lifetime.
With his kiss you feel like you’ve died a thousand times over, conscious transcending through a thousand rebirths, all within those few seconds you could feel his lips, soft, pressed against yours, and he whispers your name like it’s the only prayer he’s ever known, as though years that have passed since meeting in the park have amounted to just this one kiss.
For you, it feels like, yes— this is it.
