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
- 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.
- Look through the prompts and fill whichever you like!
- You may not fill prompts for your ship, nor may you fill your own team's prompts.
- 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!
PROMPT: TEAM TEREZI<3VRISKA
FILL: TEAM DAVE<3TEREZI
You trail after her on legs that don't feel like your own, on legs that feel stiff and dead, your waist wrapped tight in case you unravel. Your steer clear of your memories, you don't want to show her and anyway, you suspect she already knows. She accepts you for the things you've done and pities you for what you could have been and somehow that hurts worse than the constant ache in your middle. You pick through her life instead, you haunt the corners of her room and bury ghost fingers in yarn as she knits, knits, purls, dainty hands deftly crafting simple beauty and all you ever did was destroy.
You don't know where she goes when she's not dreaming. You sit cross-legged in the floor of her bedroom and wait, watching blood seep across your wrappings, remembering the whir of the engine, the flash of silver as you were cleaved in two, until she comes again.
She doesn't say a word, just presses her lips together, unwinding your stained and tattered scarf to replace it with another, tyrian purple and the shade makes you sick, but it's soft against your clammy skin, and it smells just like her, and you wish you could ask her to stay.
