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
  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.

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!

You are MARQUISE SPINNERET MINDFANG, scourge of the sea and hunter of all things shiny and valuable. You are currently questing for PRECIOUS 8OOTY that's somewhere out here, though it's probably going to take a while to find. Your loyal mount is 8EAUTIFUL SLAVE GIRL WHOSE NAME IS PACK8EAST. There's many reasons you chose not to buy an actual packbeast, it's cheaper, maintaining one is a pain, but most of all, you're having a lot of fun this way. You're sure you'll be able to find the PRECIOUS 8OOTY using the map obtained via PERFECTLY LEGAL MEANS. Eventually. You're a patient woman after all.

Respectably, Mistress Is This Really Necessary. We Have Been Traversing For Quite Some Time And There Seems To Be No Sign Of Anything Even Remotely Similar To The Markings On Your Map.

Oh come on now, don't 8e 8oring! Look, there's something up there in the distance, let's get going! The reward is well worth our efforts, Pack8east!

You Mean That Oasis We Passed Nearly Half An Hour Ago? I Really Would Prefer If You Wouldn't Call Me That.

Hush! Onward!

Alas, the oasis appears to have been a mirage!



The Marquise seems displeased.

You make your way back. This is getting ridiculous. Actually, you passed that mark about an hour and a half ago, now it's just stupid. Stupid night-long booty hunting.
The sun's almost up too, so you guys will need to stop and camp out soon before you encounter any-

Oh.

Oh hell.




Oh hell no.
