BONUS ROUND 2
Bonus Round 2
The Return of Round Robin Fanadventures
Comments have been screened; we will be tallying the points over the next 48 hours or so, after which we will unscreen the comments. Comments have been unscreened! You may continue the fanadventures on this post as long as you like, though we will not be awarding further points.
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
- 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!
- 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!
- 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">
- For this challenge, there is no minimum wordcount. We are trusting you not to abuse that fact!
- You may not comment twice in a row in one adventure. The point is to hand off the scene like a hot potato.
- 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.
- 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.
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.
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!

CG: IF YOU CONSIDER A ‘GIRLS NIGHT’, WHICH ISN’T EVEN A LOGICAL TITLE CONSIDERING I’M GOING TO BE THERE AND I AM CLEARLY NOT OF THE FEMALE PERSUASION, NOT TO MENTION HOW STUPID THE ENTIRE CONCEPT OF A ‘GIRLS ONLY’ NIGHT IS, A PARTY.
CG: THEN SURE.
GG: that sounds great! :D
GG: don’t worry karkat, I will help you fend off the terrible scary nepeta and ever fearsome terezi
GG: consider me there!
CG: GREAT
You give Jade the details, and it’s half an hour later when she logs off with a “bye karkat, see you tomorrow!! :D”. You are still thoroughly expecting tomorrow to be terrible, even with Jade there. You are in no way looking forward to seeing Jade, nope, only dreading the time you have to spend with a likely tipsy shipper-cat and a definitely tipsy cackling blind girl.
> Skip to the next night.
> Skip to the next night. (FILL: Team Karkat<3Karkat)
> Jade: Come outside.
> Jade: Come outside. (FILL: Team Karkat<3Karkat)
You will in a sec, okay? Sheesh!
Earlier today you decided to alchemize a new dress for the occasion, and fiddling around with the codes took a bit longer than expected, but you're very happy with the results!
It's a strapless white dress with a poofy skirt, patterned with little dogs in all the colors of the rainbow. You're sure Terezi will love it!
You put on the matching stockings before looking in the mirror. You consider brushing your hair, but give up on that after you remember that some of your hairbrush is still stuck somwhere in your hair from the last time you tried. Makeup and the like you don't care for at all, but you put a colorful bracelet on your wrist before going out into the hallway and putting on your jacket and red shoes. There! You're careful to lock the door before you walk up to Karkat, who is still waiting outside your house.
>Jade: Tell Karkat you're ready to leave
Re: > Jade: Tell Karkat you're ready to leave. (FILL: Team Dirk<3Roxy)
Alright, alright, fine. Quit rushing!! Jeez, you're going to run right into him if you keep moving at such a fast pace.
You have a slight skip in your step as you make your way to Karkat, ignoring the slightly bug-eyed look he gives you, and you give him your best smile and twirl in a circle, watching the dress poof out as you do so. You're trying your absolute best not to giggle, you SWEAR. But it's really hard because Karkat's face is beet red and it's just too funny, honestly! It really is!!!
"Well, I guess let's go~" you say after you both have calmed down (you giggling, him trying to calm himself for whatever reason -- you weren't sure why he'd been red as it was, was he angry or something? whatever!!), and you put your hands on your hips. "How're are we getting there? Car?"
> > Karkat: Try your hardest not to ogle. Fail miserably.
