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

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!

Re: ==> Skip the tap and go to NannaSprite to make cookies! (FILL: TEAM JOHN<3KARKAT)

[twinsky]

This rap is being very annoying. Being all mushy and shit, you are trying to write a rap! Not some cheesy love song song.

Stupid John, look at the things he does to you making your ill beats into mushy love poems. Yuck.

You'll just have to work on that later! For now you go off to find Nannasprite who is supposed to help you bake cookies.

You have no idea how they'll turn out considering you've never cooked before but you think NannaSprite, being part Nanna and part clown, should be a good baker, she is always making those cakes after all.

Oh there she is! Perfect timing.

==> Commence baking process

==> Commence baking process. (FILL: TEAM KANAYA<3VRISKA)

[ephemeraldelusion]

==> Commence baking process.

Well, that is what you WOULD do if you had gone oblivious to the fact that Nanna was HALF-CLOWN.

As soon as you turn to speak to her, you find yourself covered in a copious amount of creamcheese icing.

Oooh, so not cool.

You forgot that her cakes had a little spring to their step.

DAVESPRITE: uh yo nanna
NANNASPRITE: Yes? What is it?
DAVESPRITE: im gonna need your help for a sec here
NANNASPRITE: Really? Hoo.
DAVESPRITE: so i wanna make some cookies and shit
DAVESPRITE: because cookies are the bomb and all that
DAVESPRITE: but i honestly know shit about baking
DAVESPRITE: and you are the baking master so i figured that
DAVESPRITE: well
DAVESPRITE: that youd be the sprite to come too
NANNASPRITE: Well you'd be right about that!
NANNASPRITE: Come on, let's get going.

You see a twinkle in her eye... damn, no tricks at all. Nanna sure is an observant one. Oh well. Who cares if she figures out what it is for?

You got some cookies you need to lay a beating on right now.

==> Beat those cookies good.

==> Beat Those Cookies Good. (FILL: Dirk<3Jake<3Jane<3Roxy)

[playerprophet]

Beating happens alright. Nannasprite beats you to a pulp with her epic pranks. A few handshake buzzers, a prank candle and four pies to the face later, you figure she's going pretty easy on you. And in the end, you get the goods.



So far, so good.

==>Time to Alchemize some Candles

Re: ==> Time to Alchemize some Candles. (FILL: JOHN<3KARKAT

[twinsky]

You get the cookies and wrap them up, in some nice blue and yellow paper to, to match that goofy windy boy. You leave a couple behind for Nannasprite and whoever else wants some and head off. When you look back to say good-bye shes looking at you with a knowing smile, your cheeks go a deeper orange and you fly a bit faster. While it doesn't really matter to you that shes knows that doesn't stop it from being embarrassing to note.

You fly all the way to alchemizer, thanking the gods, haha you know a bunch, that John has yet to cross your path. You make quick use of it zapping up a bunch of candles, scented, shaped and of all colours, into existence. That was easy.

There are two things left to do, not counting picking the movie because John can do that, before you can ask him out.

And that is, write the rap or make the dinner.

==> DAVESPRITE: Choose one.

==> DAVESPRITE: Choose one. (FILL: ARADIA<3FEFERI))

[hoodedscarlet]

Considering you have a sneaking suspition that if you attempt to finish your rap it's going to turn into yet another mushy love song, you decide that cooking is the way to go. Luckily, the time on this ship, along with several cakes to the face means you can now somewhat cook.

Somewhat.

Jade has agreed to help you cook the meal; an extra pair of hands in the kitchen is always helpful when creating masterpieces such as the one you will serve John, not to mention when you had explained your plan she had cackled before saying she knew exactly what to cook. Frankly, as long as it tasted alright and wasn't chicken (because that would be just plain insensitive), you're good.

Now, if only you can find the girl...

=> Davesprite: Seek out your friend.
