Bonus Round 2

The Return of Round Robin Fanadventures

Hi shippers! Welcome to Bonus Round 2.
Round Robin Fanadventures generated so much awesome stuff last year that we decided to bring it back!

For those who are new to HSO, this is not actually that complicated a concept, but it might be a little tricky to explain, so bear with me. The point of this round is to create a bunch of fanadventures that are for a team other than your own.

Rules

1. If you are starting a new adventure: start a new thread using the title format defined below. Include either text or 1-2 pieces of embedded art setting a scene (or both!), and finish with a command (==> does not count as a command for new threads). Then sit back and wait for someone else to contribute!
   
2. If you are continuing an adventure: find a thread that does not center around your team's ship. Then comment using the title format defined below. Include either text or 1-2 pieces of embedded art continuing the scene (or both!), and finish with a command (this can include ==>, though generally we would prefer otherwise). Then sit back and wait for someone else to contribute!
   
3. For ease of reading, we suggest using standardized image sizes. 600x400 landscape is a pretty good size! But as long as it's the same as the other images in the thread, people will have an easier time following along. The HTML for inserting images is <img src="http://yourimageurlhere.com">
   
4. For this challenge, there is no minimum wordcount. We are trusting you not to abuse that fact!
   
5. You may not comment twice in a row in one adventure. The point is to hand off the scene like a hot potato.
   
6. You may not introduce or create for your team's ship into a fanadventure. If someone else introduces your team's ship to a thread, you can still contribute to that thread so long as your contributions do not involve your ship.
   
7. This challenge will run until 11:59PM EDT July 7. After that time, even if it's just by a minute according to the LJ timestamp, no submissions will be accepted for points.

NOTES:

• Audio posts are fine, so long as you include a transcript.
  
• Please make sure to check that your titles are correct!
  
• You may answer commands that have already been answered. Think of it like a 'choose your own adventure' game!
  

Title Format
If you are starting a new thread, use this format in your title.
New [THEIR SHIP] Game (FILL: TEAM [YOUR SHIP])
Replace [THEIR SHIP] with the ship you want this particular fanadventure thread to be. Remember that you cannot create a fanadventure based on your own ship. Whatever ship you choose must be represented by a HSO team not your own. The only exception is gen adventures, which are permitted.
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 it may not be counted.

If you are continuing a thread, use this format in your title.
[COMMAND] (FILL: TEAM [YOUR SHIP])
Replace [COMMAND] with whatever command the previous fill has specified.
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 title is not in this format it may not 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
(as stated here)
First 5 entries per team: 30 (per entry)
Entries 6-10: 20 (per entry)
Entries 11-15: 10 (per entry)
Entries 16+: 5 (per entry)

All fanadventure content must be created new for this round.

We would prefer that any questions about this challenge or anything else in the HSO be emailed to us at homestuck.shipping AT gmail!

New Dave<3Kanaya<3Rose Game (FILL: TEAM TEREZI<3VRISKA)

[mishfin]

Your name is DAVE STRIDER and you swear they are doing this ON PURPOSE.

Dave: Investigate immediately.

Dave: Investigate immediately. (FILL: TEAM DAVE<3ROSE<3TEREZI)

[artillie]

guys
hey
dudes
hows the research going


Were Making Progress
Its Slow But Its Progress

sweet

Real smooth. Real cool. They are definitely fucking with you.

Kanaya's nearly as tall as you are but she's sitting, and so you can at least look over their shoulders as they work. The text is an incomprehensible scrawl, half-Alternian and half-English, but they're picking through it faster than you'd be able to. Rose rests her head on your upper arm and pats your hip. (Her negligee-thing used to be a set of curtains on the fifth deck, you're sure of it.)

What brings you down here so late, Dave?

DAVE: Be the coolkid. Make your move.

DAVE: Be the coolkid. Make your move. (FILL: TEAM DAVE<3ROSE)

[psonu]

You've got this. Simple Q&A. Small talk. You're good at this, right?





You... Uh. What?

Kanaya: Take the wheel.

Kanaya: Take the wheel. (FILL: TEAM ARADIA<3ROSE)

I Do Believe Karkat Mentioned That It Would Be Best For All Members Of Our Party To Have Read The Same Book For Discussions So That We May Have Healthier Interpersonal Relationships Knowing Our Differences Perhaps He Is Here To Pick Up His Copy Of Troll of the Rings: The Party of Ringthieves Who Manage To Make Strange Conciliatory Passes At Each Other Consistently To No Avail

I don't know how you managed to say all of that in one breath.

You Should Know From Experience How Long I Can Hold My Breath

Oh my! How scandalous to mention. ;)

uh

Also I Am Dead And As Such Dont Require The Function Of My Lungs

So How About It Are You Here For Your Book Club Book

Are you going to join us in our long, deep, meaningful discussions on the things that truly matter into the wee hours of the morning? Awakening with the understanding that through these interactions you truly know us?

There is no way in hell they aren't fucking with you.

> Dave: Make rash decision about hypothetical book club.

Dave: Make rash decision about hypothetical book club. (FILL: TEAM DAVE<3ROSE<3TEREZI)

[artillie]

fuck yes sign me up buttercups
rose is the lingerie de rigeur because ive got some sexy shower curtains all ready to get torn up
the law of averages or whatever says one of you guys has to have a thing for rubber

lets do this ladies

So maybe you do have functioning lungs. Maybe you've thought real hard about testing their capacity, and not just by seeing who's the most long-winded. Maybe you're 100% not joking at all about the shower curtains.

Rose: Call his bluff?
