“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.

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.

For prompts: 5 points per prompt, limited to 5 times the number of team members (5n)

- 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.

***
When the day is over and the sun has finally set behind the hills, practice ends, and the boys go home.
Yuu walks back home with Hanai. They have study plans, or at least that’s what Hanai thinks. Yuu actually wants to play video games until he goes stupid, tickle Hanai until he can’t breathe, and then fall asleep on top of him, but Hanai doesn’t know that.
Yet.
They’ve been doing this for a long time, more times than Yuu can count. Walking back to his place after practice, shoulders bumping together as Yuu says things that make Hanai’s ears turn pink. He likes it when that happens.
He likes a lot of things when it comes to Hanai.
Even though the Tajima household is only a few minutes away from the school, Yuu takes the long way when Hanai comes home with him. He’s never really thought about why, only that he wants to, and that’s reason enough to keep doing it.
The front door is unlocked, like always, and he shouts a quick hello to his mother before racing up the stairs, Hanai following, albeit more slowly.
“Why do you have to run everywhere?” He grumbles, dropping his bag outside Yuu’s door and settling on the floor in a heap.
“Why should I waste time going places when I can spend time being there?” Yuu kicks a dirty sock at Hanai and pulls a notebook out of his bag, glancing at the clock. 6:37.
He’s going to pretend to study for exactly twenty three minutes, and then wheedle Hanai into playing video games.
Hanai pulls his own notes and a workbook out of his bag and begins to steadily copy down math exercises, and for what feels like an hour to Yuu, they study quietly.
The next time he glances at the clock it’s 6:45 and Yuu groans, throwing his arms across the table in despair. He stares at Hanai, who’s blinking very slowly, and then closing his eyes. His head slips off his hand and bangs on the table and Yuu instantly barks out a laugh.
Hanai glares at him, rubbing his forehead.
“Aw, don’t be mad. Want me to kiss it better?” he coos mockingly, reaching over the table with grabby hands.
“You’re such a dumbass,” Hanai snaps, smacking Yuu’s hands away. Yuu retaliates by climbing over the table and pushing Hanai to the ground, pressing a big, wet, open-mouthed kiss to Hanai’s forehead.
He struggles against Yuu, who doesn’t weigh very much, but stays pinned.
“Why are you like this, Tajima?” he groans, cheeks dusted with pink.
“Because I like you,” Yuu says simply. He hadn’t really been planning to say that, he was going to say “because you’re fun to mess with,” but his mouth has more of a mind of its own than his own brain.
“What.”
“You know, we’re friends, and I like you, but I also like you more than that. Like, I think I wanna kiss you and stuff sometimes? On the mouth, not like what I just did, and I wanna hold your hand and call you by your name, like Takaya and Ren do with each other. I dunno.” Yuu sits back on his heels, which is also where Hanai’s legs are, and in a rare moment of maturity, watches and waits for Hanai to respond.
It takes him a minute.
The first thing that happens is Hanai’s face turns completely red. Then he slaps a hand over his mouth, like something was going to burst out of him that he didn’t want to. A noise escapes anyways.
“You—” and then he rolls over, pressing his face into the floor and sending Yuu toppling in the opposite direction.
Yuu isn’t sure how much longer he can wait for Hanai’s brain to catch up with the rest of him, but he sits on his hands and watches Hanai’s back anyways. He glances at the clock.
6:51.
“I…” Hanai starts again, and Yuu straightens. He goes quiet for a long time again, and then, finally, says, “Okay.”
“Okay?!” Yuu throws himself on top of Hanai. “So you like me too? For how long? Do you want to kiss? Have you ever thought about me at night? I’ve thought about you a couple of times but I—”
“Yuu!” Hanai hisses, shoving at his shoulder. “Why can’t you just— ugh!” Hanai grabs Yuu by his collar and tugs, pulling until his nose smashes against his cheek and Hanai is pressing a close-mouthed, stiff kiss to Yuu’s upper lip and half of his cheek.
It’s the most amazing thing he’s ever felt.
They both sit up, after a minute, and Yuu thinks his face might split in two from smiling so hard.
“Azusa!” he chirps, watching Hanai’s face grow red. “Azusa, Azusa!”
“Stooooop,” he moans, pushing his burning face into his hands. “Why do you keep saying it?”
“Because I like you. I like your name and your face, and you’re really good at baseball and you’re also really smart. I like everything about you, Azusa.”
Azusa peeks out between his fingers.
“You’re going to kill me if you keep saying stuff like that.” Yuu smiles, softer this time, and gently pries Azusa’s fingers away from his face, and presses a chaste kiss to his forehead. Then each cheek, ducks back to his fingertips for good measure, then his nose, and finally, kisses Azusa like he’s read about in magazines, like he’s thought about girls kissing him, and more recently, boys, specifically the boy right in front of him. Yuu cups Azusa’s face in his hands, drinking in the feeling because he knows if he goes too fast, this thing between them might break.
His mom always tells him he goes too fast, but this, this is something he’s going to slow down for.
Azusa finally breaks away, leaning his forehead against Yuu’s and breathing deeply, but smiles, and Yuu knows this is way better than playing video games.

You wrote Tajima perfectly, I could totally hear his dialogue, especially his little bursts rapid-fire babbling (that I love so). Also him formulating his Sneaky Plan on the way home, because that's exactly the kind of planning I believe Tajima does outside the baseball field.
Hanai's adorably dramatic reaction to the confession was also vivid and wonderful and no wonder Tajima likes this dumb boy so much.
AND!! *glances up at comments* Look at you helping convince other people to join the Oofuri fold with your amazing Tajihana! Truly doing a writer's best work. ;A;
