Bonus Round 6
Bonus Round 6
Recs
Hey, shippers! This is the last bonus round, which we’re all very sad about. So let’s talk about some of the awesome stuff created throughout the HSO!
Rules
- Rec at least three fanworks from the main or bonus rounds! They do not have to be connected to each other in any way.
- You may not recommend material created by members of your own team.
- Each recommendation must include at least three full sentences about why it’s awesome. Please use the format specified below.
- You may recommend as many sets as you like, so long as each set has at least three recs in it.
Title & Rec Format
If you are doing a fill, 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.
The content of the post should be in this format (extend as necessary):
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 fills (as stated here):
First 5 entries in each post: 30 (per entry)
Entries 6-10 in each post: 20 (per entry)
Entries 11-15 in each post: 10 (per entry)
Entries 16+ in each post: 5 (per entry)
If you have any questions, please ask them at the FAQ post here, or email them to us (homestuck.shipping at gmail). Otherwise, we cannot guarantee that we will see them in a timely fashion!
FILL: TEAM BRO<3GRANDPA
Team: Eridan <3< Sollux
Creator: kephra
Why I’m recommending it: Are you even looking at the pairing? The pairing is why. It's so fucking hilarious--Serenity's waggling eyebrow and horrible pick up line! And wow the look on Hearts Boxcars' face is positively adorable and I'm not even a huge fan of his character. I also really like the art; I'm especially fond of the lighting. Everyone should look at this (but beware: it is a flashing gif). This is a masterpiece.
Rec 2: BR1 Dirk<3John fill
Team: Equius<>Nepeta
Creator: fiveforchibis
Why I’m recommending it: IT'S A MY LITTLE PONY AU. Like, the amount of detail that went into this in incredible, especially for a bonus round fill. First of all, it has a fucking prologue, and it's separated into three long comments of pony puns and magical creatures (Nepeta makes an appearance) and magical environments and Dirk and John being absolute dorks. I had so much fun reading through this--and the author also included images of pony versions of Bro and John hnnnnnnnnng. It's all about John's quest to get his cutie mark and you will not be disappointed.
Rec 3: BR1 Feferi<3Vriska fill
Team: Kanaya<>Karkat
Creator: draconicalgorithm
Why I’m recommending it: Feferi<3Vriska needs more support because it's pretty great. And this author perfectly establishes why that is--they are fantastic together. So snippy and energetic and perfect. The writing on this fill was really strong--suspenseful and captivating at the beginning, ridiculously hilarious at the end. It's the most perfect horror movie parody ever. The poor killer. He's just so clumsy. XD
