  • 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

Minimums

Required Work Minimums:

  • 400 words (prose)

  • 400px by 400px (art)

  • 14 lines (poetry)

There is no max work cap.

Format

FILL: [Your Team], [Rating]

  • Replace [Your Team] with the name of the team you belong to. Nickname or Official Name are both acceptable
  • Replace [Rating] with the rating of your fill (G-E).
  • 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

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 was rly hard to chose between drawing and writing it TT

On one last « Nice kill » the training match ended. Akaashi sighted. It was the same court, same exercises, and ultimately the same volley nerds. But it lacked that one person to tie everything up. Ever since the third years graduated he was worried for Bokuto. He wasn’t sure that someone else in this world was patient enough to bear with his mood swings or with his outstanding personality at all.

Agasheeee my new team’s setter is so mean !! How are you doing ? I miss you !

The locker room was drowned in an unusual silence. Only a few words were spoken between the first years. Reading this email reminded Akaashi of how different things were now here. And he hated himself for that. Bokuto was annoying, sometimes simple minded, but he shone the most. So they were all genuinely attracted by his light. But Akaashi was not confident enough to do that, as he always thought of himself as a sidekick. There was this lone unsent email waiting in this drafts folder, sealing away the thoughts he didn’t have the guts to utter. When he finally decided to go home, the door lock sound echoed in his head as a distant call from the past. As he was pulling it out, the key felt heavier and sharper. Nobody could tell whether that silhouette in front of the clubroom was inhabited during that split second.



Tears of joy and hard to understand cheerings were covered by the delighted crowd. From the court, all sweaty and exhausted Akaashi could not see his beloved upperclassman. Fukurodani won the Interhigh but Bokuto had a exam that day. The blinding lights and overwhelming shouts drove him nearly to collapse. Bokuto promised, he said that they would share this victory, with everybody.

[16:34] FROM : bokutowl

SUBJECT : heyyyy
how was the match ?? did you win ??
i’ve just finished, i’m coming over !

In the locker room, the team was happier than ever. Laughter could be heard from miles and clothes were thrown all over the place. Akinori and Komi who were watching from the beginning in the stands joined them. Little by little, every piece of the past clicked. Time, place, people, they were all put together to create this familiar and heartwarming atmosphere Akaashi missed so much.

An unexpected tide of leftover feelings emerged when he saw Bokuto in the distance. It’s the first time he ever saw Bokuto wearing both dark rings under eyes and ear to ear smile. He directly hugged him with a distorted “Akaashi”, maybe was it the first time he greeted him in this way ? Today the world was at his feets, he swore that he would say it. After match, where ever it is, to Bokuto. The stage was set but the actors stood still. Behind the scene, third parties were whispering the lines but nothing could be done. Time froze. Shivers were earthquakes in this strange limbo.



It was definitely tiring to stare at the ceiling, being hyper aware of your body touching your pajama, your own hand running on your cheeks. In midnight’s realm, Akaashi could mistake it for Bokuto’s hand, delicately brushing his skin from his fingertips. A cup of the most bitter coffee, at college, right before classes, it was supposed to wake Akaashi up for the day.

YOU HAVE NO NEW MESSAGE(S)

The future that seemed so far when he was in first year of high school was now his everyday life : being home alone, cooking for himself, scheduling household chores. So the small things he was clung to before were only drifting away. It used to be one message per day, at least. Akaashi wondered whether he should be the one to start the conversation for once. The sudden ringing pulled him out of his flip phone’s pale screen. Fukunaga and Semi, hands full of beer cans and food, greeted him.

- Tonight’s party night ! No time for gloomy thoughts ! said Semi when he noticed his friend’s anxious look.

So he saved another email in his drafts folder, pilling up over the old ones.

I'M SAD. The slow drift away from each other as Bokuto lives his own college life and Akaashi withdraws inside himself... :(

I really love this line: "The stage was set but the actors stood still. Behind the scene, third parties were whispering the lines but nothing could be done."

Great fill!!
