BONUS ROUND 4

Bonus Round 4


Mobius Double Reacharound FST - Revisited



Hi shippers! Welcome to Bonus Round 4! Bringing back a favourite from last year! (Sorry for the delay, we're very busy!)

Here’s how this is going to work: somebody will submit a selection of 3-6 songs without comment. Then somebody else will come along and create a companion fanwork to fit the soundtrack!

Rules
  1. If you are submitting a soundtrack: submit only the track listing and download or youtube links. The idea is that people should ~interpret~ your selections!

  2. You are not allowed to fill soundtrack prompts with your team's ship, nor are you allowed to fill your own soundtracks. (Filling your team's soundtracks is okay!)

  3. Soundtracks count for 5 points each, for a maximum of 100 points per team.

  4. Fills may be in whatever format you choose (except FST, of course) so long as they link the songs by mood and/or lyrics in some kind of narrative.

  5. Post your fill as a comment to the prompt post, using the title format described below.

  6. This challenge will run until 11:59PM EST August 3rd.



Title Format

If you are starting a new thread, please use this format in your title.

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 we cannot guarantee that it will be counted.

If you are filling a prompt, use this format in your title.

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 we cannot guarantee that it will 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
For prompt posts: 5 points each (maximum of 100 per team)

For Fills (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 scored content must be created/assembled 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 like falling asleep.

You meet a lot of people when you do, in the dream bubbles. Old friends, new friends, people who you love, people you hate. Sometimes they attack you, a foreign intruder into the only safe space the dead have left. Sometimes they greet you warmly, arms open. But you think the worst is when you meet someone who has forgotten you, or who doesn't know who you are, despite the fact that you hold them in a special place in your heart. You think you've met enough doomed Jades Johns, and Daves to last all of your own doomed lifetimes.

The space in between the dream bubbles is eerily comfortable for you, perhaps because of the unique history you and the Horror Terrors share. It's a lot like you imagine space would be: endless and quiet, and you feel as if you are floating and flying and falling all at once.

But it's not completely quiet. You can hear subtle slithers and unhappy writhing, and sometimes a shriek or scream in the far-off distance, or even a loving voice whispering your name. "Rose Lalonde..."

It's warm, though. Unlike the cold space of the Universe you've left behind, it's warm. Like a tropical island.

You see a bubble close by glowing warmly and you press your hand against the surface, breaking through slowly, unobtrusively. It's taken a while, but you've become practiced in coming and going through the dream bubbles unnoticed.

But when you break through, she's there.

"Hello Aradia." This is not the first time you've met, far from it.

"Rose." She says, smiling sweetly. You've gotten used to seeing that smile in your dreams, and it's comforting, "I know you just got here, but I was going to go on a, well walk isn't the right word, but I was going to look around. You're welcome to join me!"

Aradia was there during your first trip into the dream bubbles. She was there when you met your doomed friends and nearly broke down into tears. She was there when you spotted a glimpse of your mother, when you saw John's father, everyone. Never did she judge you for your reactions or your confusions or emotions.

"Sure thing," You say, "Anyone in particular you've been wanting to see?"

"Well," She grins, and you catch a glimpse of white teeth, "I was hoping to run into you. And here you are!"

"Me? Really?"

"You're good company! So now I have someone nice to explore with."

Aradia's smile is pretty radiant, you think. It's a pity that she couldn't be travelling on the asteroid with you all; it would be nice to spend time with her outside of a transient-horror-dream-scape.

"Shall we?" You say, reaching out your hand.

She takes it, guiding you out of the bubble, and you think that the screams of the horror terrors are particularly quiet and unnoticeable when she's with you.
