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 Is it from a speech or a historical document?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
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).
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.

There are two of me, you know, Atsumu likes to say, and Osamu always looks at him the way he looks at a pudding cup he can’t open, like the plastic’s sealed so tight he has to bite down into the rim to make a dent. Little teeth marks, all around their edges.
Sure, Osamu says, and they do not speak any more of it.
/
There are two of him and the other one is a tug at the end of a pinky finger. He is not a promise but the smiling reflection of one, the thing you find when you turn a promise inside out, a red-threaded oath that finds its unerring way home when you do not want it. Atsumu first meets him in the school courtyard, under a maple tree. He is tossing a ball upwards and catching it as it falls. He does this so many times that he never sees Atsumu coming.
What are you doing?
Becoming better, says the boy with a smirk that makes Atsumu lick his own lips.
His accent draws skid marks in the space between them, and his voice is smooth as otoro. Osamu sounds nothing like this. This is not his twin. That makes it okay, Atsumu reasons, when the volleyball drops and no one is around to see his own miss, when he smiles back and presses their identical bruised knuckles together and says, show me what better is.
/
Would you like to meet him? he asks Osamu, in the middle of the night. He asks it when they are lying in their bunks and he knows from the sound of Osamu’s breathing that Osamu has yet to fall asleep.
Osamu’s answer never changes. He has said it so often that Atsumu can mouth the words along with him.
No. One of you is more than enough.
Atsumu grins. Some people think you’re me.
Osamu rolls over, grunts into his pillow and keeps his silence. Atsumu does not say what they are both thinking, that some people think he is Osamu too, that there are three of him and only one of them gets to be real at any one time.
/
He will swallow that voice like otoro and it will slide down his throat, shameless and decadent. He will want more. He will always want more. Little teeth marks, all around their edges.
He will step on a shoelace that’s come undone, feel the ground give way beneath his feet as they lean into the shade of another tree. There is nothing sacred between selves who know each other far too well. There are two of him and one will melt in the heat of all that desire. There are three of him and two will link pinky fingers and make promises to be broken. At the end, it all leads back to him, there is only him.
