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.

NSFW Fills

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.

***
At the very heart of Kobe, there’s a shrine only Shinsuke can see.
It’s full tonight. Of course it would be full, tonight of all nights, when he’s finally decided to come face the last of his trials. It would be here in the capital of Hyogo, right by the port where the rest of the world is waiting. Beneath the stones that line the shore, the beer-soaked grubby pavement that leads to the bar, something is straining to break free.
From the rooftop, Shinsuke surveys the city. It’s just as he heard: Kobe does not sleep. They have not slept a single wink since the earthquake. Not the big one, but the quiet one that happened in the aftershocks, the one that swallowed dreams and memories and buried them in the broken concrete that littered every neighbourhood. The tide has not washed all things away. These still remain. When he says the heart of Kobe, he means it quite literally; the pulsing is unbearable and the city’s heartbeat is roaring and it will be swept away if he does not do something—
Shinsuke takes a deep breath, touches the intricate tattoo on the back of his hand. A mosaic of entwined foxes wind their way up his arm, a sleeve that warns off everyone who thinks he’s small and makes an easy target. He can’t see them, but he knows the rest of the boys are nearby. Atsumu, probably skulking round the other side of the rooftop. Osamu, lurking in shadows. Suna under the street lamp opposite the bar. A fight’s breaking out inside now. Shinsuke can hear shouting, something hard shattering on the floor.
He kneels, claps his hands together and presses them to the roof of the building.
For a second, the sea stills. For a second, the glass flying out the bar’s front door hangs, suspended in the air.
The shards fall to the ground one by one. They clatter at Suna’s feet as he finally peels himself away from the street lamp, walks out into the light and looks up at Shinsuke. “Impressive,” he says.
The waves crash upon the docks. Shinsuke keeps his hands where they are.
He watches as all his tattoos fade away, melt into the cracks of the city, those they can see and those they can’t. A new tattoo replaces them: just one fox, now, a lone animal with silver-tipped ears and tail, running ghostlike across his clean, unmarked skin to perch on his shoulder.
Shinsuke stands up, breathes out. At his feet, the city sleeps at last.
Atsumu saunters up to him, hands in his pockets and a grin on his face. “So have you conquered the city, Kita-san?”
“Or freed it?” Osamu murmurs, materialising like a phantom out of moonlight and thin air.
Shinsuke smiles. As he opens his mouth, the fox tattoo leaps into it and eats his answer whole, sinew and all.
