BONUS ROUND 1

Bonus Round 1


Genre-Mixing


Hey, shippers! Welcome to your very first bonus round proper--we hope you have lots of fun with it! This time around we're going to be asking you to mix it up a little--each fanwork posted for this round will be a mish-mash of two different genres, blended together in a delightful incestuous slurry to create an UNSTOPPABLE CREATIVE CONCOCTION--er. Or. Something.

Yeah, we're genre-mixing. That's what we're doing this round.

Rules
  1. Submit prompts! Prompts should consist of two different genres and one ship. This cannot be your team's ship! These are worth 5 points each, for a maximum of 100 points per team.

  2. Look through the prompts and fill whichever you like!

  3. You may not fill prompts for your ship, nor may you fill your own team's prompts.

  4. Fills should be posted as replies to the prompts which they are for, following the format below. They may be any medium.


Title Format
If you are starting a new thread, please use this format in your title.

Replace [YOUR SHIP] with the name of the team YOU belong to; please use the characters and quadrant, not whatever portmanteau or nickname you've come up with.
If your team name is not in this format and in the title we cannot guarantee that it will be counted.

If you are filling a prompt, use this format in your title.

Replace [YOUR SHIP] with the name of the team YOU belong to; please use the characters and quadrant, not whatever portmanteau or nickname you've come up with.
If your team name is not in this format and in the title we cannot guarantee that it will be counted.

Posts not using this format in the title will be understood to be unofficial discussion posts, no matter what they contain. They, like all comments on the comm, are subject to the Wank Policy.

Scoring
For prompt posts: 5 points each (maximum of 100 per team)

For fills (as stated here):
First 5 entries in each post: 30 (per entry)
Entries 6-10 in each post: 20 (per entry)
Entries 11-15 in each post: 10 (per entry)
Entries 16+ in each post: 5 (per entry)

All scored content must be created/assembled new for this round.

If you have any questions, please ask them at the FAQ post here, or email them to us (homestuck.shipping at gmail). Otherwise, we cannot guarantee that we will see them in a timely fashion!

Rose grinned down at the page in her fanfiction journal, taking another swig from her cosmopolitan before setting it down beside her. "Perfect." she whispered ominously, her words slurred as she reached for another lilac pen. "Dave's hand r...reached for John's throbbing ochinchinchinchinchin. 'Dave-kun!' he exclaimed." she spoke as she scribbled.

(Gosh your prompts are really good so I filled another.)

“You have a trollsona?!” squealed Nepeta, hopping to her moirall’s side, grabbing her hand and looking her in the eyes. “You have to show me!”

“Oh, uhm, well... No offense, lovely, but she’s sort of... private.” Calliope mumbled, eyes on the ground. Should she have lips she would be biting them right now, instead settling for scratching at the back of her head awkwardly.

“Oh. Okay, I guess, I just thought it might be fun. I showed you my adorable fursona...” she snuggled up against Calliope’s green pyjamas, nestling her warm head against the cherub’s cold body.

“Well, yes, that was very cute and I’m glad I got to see her, it was nice!” Calliope placed a hand in the troll’s black hair, stroking absently. “But... I’m bloody sorry, darling, but I just don’t feel comfortable showing her to you.”

“I’m your meowraill, Callie, you show me anything.” Nepeta smiled encouragingly. “But if you don’t feel comfurtable with that then I can respect that.”

“Thank you, Nepeta. You are a very good friend.” she thought for a moment. “Or should I say furiend?”
Nepeta tacklepounced Calliope, excitement clear in her eyes. “You used a catpun!” She thought for a moment. “You nefur use catpuns, you always say you don’t have that animal where you’re from.... You’re not trying to make up fur not showing her to me are you?”

“Well... I’ve had that one stored for a while, now seemed like a good time to use it, that’s all.” Calliope shrugged, eyes down.

“You don’t have to make up fur anything, Cattie!” scolded Nepeta. “If you don’t want to show me your troll then you don’t have to. It’s your decision.”

“Catti... Oh, Call... Right. I understand, Nepeta, I just feel... Sort of guilty!”

“Noo, you shouldn’t fureel guilty.” Nepeta booped Calliope’s nose and grinned. “How about we watch the Lion King again to clear your mind?”

“Oh, but we already watched it several times tonight; in fact it’s the only film you brought with you, sweetie.”

“Yes, but I left the sequels at home, this place is super far away from there and it takes a long long time to get back so we’ll just have to bare with it.”

The two watched the film in silence, Calliope hugged Nepeta through Mufasa’s death scene and they both giggled at the stupid jokes they’d heard three times already this evening.

“Callie?” whispered Nepeta.

“What is it?”

“Why don’t you want to show me your trollsona?” Nepeta adjusted herself to face the cherub, shifting her blue dressing gown and smiling.

Calliope looked at her for a moment before moving her gaze toward the ground. “Because she’s everything I’m not.” She awaited Nepeta’s response but none came. “She’s beautiful and smart and popular and she can feel emotions that I never could - should you have not awakened the feelings of moiralliegance within me I don’t think I could ever have felt the blessed things. So that’s why I can’t show you to her, Nepeta. Because... I’m worried you’ll,” she paused and closed her eyes. “I’m worried you’ll prefer her to me.”

“What? Meowrail, I would never ever ever prefurr anybody to you, you’re purrfect and pretty and really smart!” she exclaimed, the movie ignored as she hugged Calliope and kissed her on her hard cheek.

“I’m sure you’re just saying that, I’m pitiful enough, certainly, but I could never be loved.” she sighed, facing Nepeta head on and smiling weakly. “But that’s okay, really, because I’ve got you and you’re all I need!”

Nepeta smiled, holding Calliope’s claw loosely. “And that’s why I can’t do anything to risk losing you.” sighed Calliope. “Because you’re all I need, but you’re also all I have.”

“Okay, Calliope, I’ll do my best to be the greatest meowrail ever. I promise I will never leave you, ever! So you don’t have to show me your silly old trollsona because all I want to know is the real you.” grinned Nepeta.

“Really?” Calliope stared at her, shocked.

“Really!”

“Gosh.” Calliope smiled nervously. “Oh, by the way, look at these two friends of mine. Shouldn’t they just bleeding well go and get on with it and kiss?”

“Wow, yes, they totally should. Oh and also those two, yes, they would be so adorable together.”

“I know right!”

After spending hours talking about shipping their friends in inexplicably creepy ways, the two fell asleep in each other’s arms, a smile set on Calliope’s face and a lightness in her chest, knowing that at least one person in the world preferred her to her creation.

He looks you up and down, mouth a bracketed line; hands frozen on keys, fingers drawn up at the knuckles, pointed like needles. Hunched over his husktop, there's a slight sickly glow cast across his face from the screen, and somehow he is less attractive than you would have imagined but only in the ways that don't matter. There are bags under his eyes--he looks in desperate need of sleep. At least, more and better than he's getting as is. You hold your tongue.

"Hey," he says, eventually, and his voice is like versed in a language of sighs. 'Hello' you say, quietly, the tone of talking to a small beast, and together then you settle back into uncomfortable silence. His video glitches, a little: the yellow of his eyes spills out in miniscule squares. M/JADEBLOOD/EIGHT SWEEPS, the ad had said, A GROSS FUCKING MESS. His shoulders are hunched and his nails are bitten down to the quick (and yet still marked, a sheening green): he looks so on-edge you could probably scrape your skin on every one of his joints. DIAMONDS ONLY, NON-NEGOTIABLE. "Fuck, you know, I've never--"

Without thinking you run your fingers along the top of your husktop. You immediately feel ridiculous. "-- never done this before. I swear." He looks at you very earnestly, digs his teeth into his lower lip, and your chest burns, something like a sinking feeling.

"It wouldn't matter if you had," you say; you try to sound comforting and it comes so quickly to you it is in some way alarming, perhaps. "There is nothing wrong with -- with wanting somebody." You forcibly shelve the curiosity of to whom this justification is aimed. (Pale Intentions Only, in a granite, anonymous grey. Everyone has their vulnerabilities, you tell yourself, everyone, for something.)

His hands slacken, laying palms-flat against the keyboard, and you can see better now the bones of his wrists jutting out behind his skin. You can picture with such clarity his ribs, his back, all of him angular; you can picture your hands on his hair. His face against your shoulder.

He looks like he has nothing at all to say that would not suffocate him. For a moment he stares at you, so unsure of himself, so lost, before his shoulders drops, his everything unravels. "Yeah," he says, "I guess not."

You’re dreaming about LOWAS when you find him, dead eyes wide open and white. He’s very still, for a guy with a sword pinning him to the ground, he doesn’t twitch, not even when you wrap two hands around the hilt and tug, not even when the sword slides free with a sickening squelch. He just sort of lies there, quiet except for the labored breathes rattling out of his chest, and you wonder if the dead can still feel.

He keeps pretty quiet, and he keeps the sword. The steel is stained with his blood, his clothes are stained with his blood, and you wonder what Dave would say, if he knew you were hanging out with his dead Bro nowadays.

His memories aren’t what you’re you used to, they’re not like everything else you’ve seen flitting around in the dream bubbles. It’s all faced-paced strife, edge of your seat action. His sword glints as it arcs, your gun is cold and smooth in your hands as the two of you face down enemies in half-shadow. It’s constant motion, with him, nothing ever stops and you’re swept right up in it. You wonder, sometimes, who he really is, who he was, who he might have been once, but you’re a witch, not a seer, so you stand up by his side and wait for the next attack.

Tags: Psychological Horror, Incest, Suicide Attempt, Language, and general weirdness. I seriously don't know where this even came from.

---

You're holding on tightly to Rose's hand as the two of you race down the dark corridor. Neither of you know what's behind you, and you can't look back, because it's right behind you and it's going to kill you if it catches you.

"Don't look back," you say over and over. "Don't look back, don't look back, don't look back -"

Rose doesn't listen. She never listens.

You hear her scream.

---

"Rose, this might be one of the stupidest things you've ever asked me to do, and I've done a lot of crazy things for you."

"Why do you say that?"

"Because it's ridiculous. Because fortune telling is nothing but a bunch of old cons telling people shit they already know and want to hear someone else say."

"You only believe that because you've never heard an authentic fortuneteller at work."

"Fuck yeah, I haven't. Because fortunetelling isn't real."

---

"It's just as the cards said," Rose manages as you finally get her to calm down. You think you're safe, now - you think that it can't reach you there. Damn it, you hope you're right. You really do.

"Don't think about that," you say through gritted teeth. "We've gotta come up with a plan -"

"Transformation. Devils. Evil. Change." She's still got that reading stuck in her head. You can't seem to pry it out of her. "We made this happen, Dave. We made it come here."

"Rose. Damn it, look, Rose -"

She looks up at you with empty eyes. "I brought it here."

---

"Oh, dear. You're going to have a very dull life, with that attitude."

"Look, all I'm saying is if a bunch of cards could tell the future, everyone would be doing it by now, okay? We'd already know which countries were gonna start shit someday, which would be all of them, so we would've nuked each other out of existence by now. I don't even know why you think that's a good thing."

"It's not that simple, and stop pretending that you don't know otherwise. This isn't about that."

"So what's it about?"

"Guidance."

---

"I have to consult them again."

"What?" You grab her wrists - you don't want to hurt her, but you have to stop her from doing anything crazy. Again. "Rose, look, they got us into this mess, what makes you think they can get us out?"

"What makes you think that anything else can?" Below her tight mask of control lies barely-concealed panic.

"Look, sitting around and staring at your cards isn't going to help. We have to run -"

"There's nowhere to run, Dave - you saw the cards. Ten of Swords, inverted - he's coming for us. He'll find us wherever we go."

You shut up. How are you supposed to argue with her when she has an answer for everything you say? You can't stop her from pulling out that damned deck and shuffling the cards; all you can do is wait.

---

"Okay, wow. This is just a great fucking time all around."

"You're not the one interpretating this reading, Dave. You have no place to say."

"C'mon, so far we've got freaky devil guy, the grim reaper, and a shitload of swords. I can't see how this could possibly be a good thing, do you?"

"It's not meant to be taken literally. Death is a sign of change, and the Devil is the sign of bondage. The swords usually indicate a combative nature..."

"Rose? Hey, c'mon. Not funny."

"I wasn't joking. Didn't you hear something?"

"No, besides - wait. What was that?"

"..."

"...shit."

---

Rose isn't putting cards down carefully in a pattern this time, like she was before. She's shuffling wildly and throwing them down, and you see them land - a pair of lovers, a bunch of wands, a lady with a sceptre -

"Rose," you finally snap, grabbing her wrist. "Stop it. Please."

She looks up at you with frightened - and somehow mocking - eyes. "I can fix this," she starts.

You pull her in and kiss her. It's the only way you can think of to shut her up. "We've got to keep going," he says. "We'll be fine if we keep going. Everything will be fine."

She stares at you for a moment longer. "All right," she says, at last, and leans in to kiss you again, and it's weird but you keep doing it, because at least if she's kissing you she's not panicking. And it's weird, but somehow the running and being terrified and shit makes it better, and you're really getting into it.

She loses her balance, and you're too tangled up in her to catch you, and suddenly, you're falling.

"You're right, Dave," she says over the roaring. "Everything's going to be fine."

You black out before you hit the ground.

---

"What IS it? What is that thing?"

"I don't know! This is supposed to be symbolic, not literal -"

"Well, tell him that! Maybe he'll disappear if you tell him he's not real!"

"I don't understand -"

"Come on, Rose. We have to run!"

---

You aren't sure how you both survived that. You're somewhere in the darkness, and Rose is resting with you, her head in you lap, and it occurs to you that you have no idea where you are.

Whatever she did - whatever crazy plan she had - it worked. But now you're lost, completely fucking lost, and you haven't been able to find a way out.

Two nights ago, when she was asleep, you took the cards out of her pockets and buried the motherfuckers in the sand. You wonder if she's noticed yet.

You don't know. But you know it had to be done.

The moon was almost at the top of the sky, and Vriska Serket was in a resistance 8ase. The citadel was 8lowing up, and she thought to herself ‘I must go there to defeat the enemies!!!!!!!!’, and so she went.

She walked really fast down the road to where the City Seventeen was, and on the road she saw an officer.

“WH3R3 4R3 YOU GO1NG?” Said the officer.

“Noooooooowhere.” Said Vriska Serket. The officer got out a cane, and Vriska Serket pulled out a weapon and they proceeded to duel.

Vriska Serket was fast and smart and she flew over the officer 8ecause she had awesome wings. She got wings 8ecause she was the 8est at everything and had all of the levels. The officer shook a fist at her, 8ecause Vriska Serket was too good to be caught 8y a stupid con8ine officer who was really, R8ALLY stuuuuuuuupid and who was 8lind too.

“1 H4T3 YOU, VR1SK4 S3RK3T.” Terezi Pyrope said, and Vriska Serket laughed at her 8ecause she was so stupid and flew off towards the citadel to save the humans.

==>

“Hahaha, that was the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard.”

Vriska stuck her tongue out at Terezi, despite the fact she couldn’t see it, and waved the sheet containing her story in the air.

“This is art! It’s better than those things you call drawings, anyway.”

Terezi grinned at her in return, all teeth and malice.

“If you’ve got time to write that, you’ve got time to stand watch from the lighthouse in case a dropship comes.”

Vriska growled, low in her throat, and Terezi laughed in response.

The rest of the residents of the resistance base just got ready for another night of screaming and shouting.
