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!

>Jake: say hello to the lovely lady. (FILL: TEAM Dave<3Jake)

[geronimogal]

Gosh, what a beautiful gal she is. Right up there with Neytiri and Lara Croft on your list of gorgeous babes! Well, almost as beautiful, maybe if she was blue...wait haven't you already said this??
You're mumbling a bit about her but you might just be a bit too far for her to hear and now she has her goggles up and golly if her eyes aren't the prettiest you've ever seen.

You start going off into a tangent over how lovely the girl is and then comparing her to your favourite actresses and your mouth isn't quite working how it's supposed to. Nor is your brain. Maybe you should just be the lovely lady.

=> Be the lovely lady.

=> Be the lovely lady. (FILL: TEAM TAVROS<3VRISKA)

[dymentia]

You are remarkably successful at being the lovely lady. Your name is Feferi Peixes and your favorite thing is to be in the ocean. It feels like home to you.
This guy just took notice of you. You think he's really cute, but he's mumbling so much, most of the things he says make no sense. This boy seems to need a little conversation help. You take interest in his surfboard.

FEFERI: So, you surf, )(u)(? )(OW -EXCITING! T)(ink you could s)(ow me some of your moves?

> Jake: Show her your moves.

Jake: Show her your moves. (FILL: TEAM JOHN<3VRISKA)

[tehstripe]

Talking doesn't seem to be working well for you, you decide that you'll show the girl your moves. After all, the way to a woman's heart isn't through words, it's through... well, you don't remember the rest of that statement right now, but it doesn't matter. What does matter is that you're going to impress her, no matter what.

Unfortunately, one does not gain skill at surfing simply because one is out to impress a girl. You paddle out into the waves, and just as you manage to get your feet on the board, a large wave washes over you, and you wipe out.

Badly.

You would probably be really embarrassed, were you still conscious.

> Feferi: Save the boy!
