Bonus Round 2: Quotes
Bonus Round 2: Quotes
Sometimes you just have to keep with tradition! Keeping with the SASO roots that SportsFest was born from, Bonus Round 2 is all about quotes.
This bonus round will close on July 13th, 2018 11:59PM PT. [COUNTDOWN]
This Round is CLOSED, but is perpetually open for new FILLS.
Rules
The Rule of Thumb for this round is prominence - did a published author or poet write this line you’d like to quote? Great. Is it from a speech or a historical document? Cool. Did your friend say something funny on twitter the other day? Not so much.
Please DO NOT prompt screenshots of private conversations, Discord convos, or conversations between you and your friends. This can easily and unintentionally bring the prompts into inside joke territory, and can create an exclusionary environment.
Quotes from other SportsFest participants (or yourself) are NOT allowed in this round (for similar reasons to above, and the fact that you could just make anything a quote).
Please give credit to the original speaker of your quote whenever possible.
If prompting with a screenshot, it is polite to post a transcription of the text below the image for accessibility.
Please use your best judgement, and if you’re unsure if something qualifies - ask! The mods are here to help.
And to reiterate, Your prompt MUST include one or more specific nominated fandoms. Please do not prompt "Fandom: Any".
A Few Examples:
“Today is far from Childhood -
But up and down the hills
I held her hand the tighter -
Which shortened all the miles-
- Emily Dickinson, ‘One Sister Have I In Our House’
“Til this moment I never knew myself”
- Elizabeth Bennett, Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice
“SHE DOESN’T EVEN GO HERE!
- Damian, Mean Girls
“It's a quarter past midnight
As we cut through the city”
- Quarter Past Midnight, Bastille
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. “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.
Once you have joined the Afterhours community, you can find the corresponding post HERE.
If Filling

Required Work Minimums:
400 words (prose)
400px by 400px (art)

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).
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. 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.
Once you have joined the Afterhours community, you can find the corresponding post HERE.
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.

Mihashi woke in the night during the first training camp of their second year with a warmth at his back and a heavy weight over his side.
It wasn't an alarming sort of weight—more of a comfortable pressure across his chest. He blinked into the darkness around him, trying to make out the features of the room. Across the room was the faint glow of someone's phone charger. Through the curtains, he could also see the dull glow of the porch light. He lifted his head a little bit to get a better view of the room, and—
Oh. Abe was sleeping on top of him.
This had never happened before—not at camp, not at sleep overs, not ever. Mihashi glanced wildly at Abe's futon next to his, just to confirm that it really was empty, and then peered back at Abe on his chest. Abe's arm was slung up around Mihashi's front almost protectively, while Abe's shoulder rested against Mihashi's side. Also, Abe wasn't wearing a shirt. Mihashi let his head drop back down to his pillow, swallowed, and tried to hold onto the warm, safe feeling he'd woken up with and not the panic beginning to bubble up low in his chest.
It was just Abe, after all. Just Abe.
Just Abe.
But then, it had always been "just Abe", hadn't it? And Mihashi went and fell for him anyway.
Mihashi takes a couple deep breaths and tries not to focus on the part of his shirt that's risen up underneath Abe, or the way Abe's bare skin feels against the exposed skin of his arms. It's a bit of a losing battle. Now that he's aware of what's going on, not thinking about Abe is almost impossible.
He looked down at Abe's face again. In the dim light of the shared room, he could see the way Abe's brow smoothed in his sleep, how relaxed he looked. Mihashi had to fight the urge to reach out and touch the soft hair had fallen into his face, to reach out and feel the soft curve of his jaw. He had no idea what he'd say, if Abe woke to find him doing that. Maybe he wouldn't say anything at all. Actions were always more successful communicators than words, when it came to the two of them.
Instead, Mihashi shifts onto his side, letting Abe's arm slide into place around his midsection. Abe shifted in his sleep and slid closer to Mihashi's back. Soon he was pressed in close, a comforting heat surrounding Mihashi like an embrace. I'm here, the touch said. I'm here to stay.
He let himself drift back asleep like this, spooning into Abe's chest. If Abe awoke before him in the morning, they'd both probably be embarrassed, but for this moment, it was worth it. He wouldn't trade this for anything.
