Bonus Round 2 is now open! This time, the theme is speech only. Entries should consist entirely of speech, although this can include script format.
If you have an idea for something you’d like to see, please leave a situation, the characters involved and any other details as a PROMPT below. Then read through everyone else’s prompts, and leave a FILL for any which catch your eye. Fills can be in any media, and they need not be long, but please put a little effort in – if anyone starts spamming this post for points, we’ll be able to tell.
You should place PROMPT/FILL, your team name and a brief summary in the comment title. NSFW prompts and fills should mention this in the summary or at the top of the post. Please note that NSFW includes any level of sexual content.
You will be awarded five points per prompt for the first two prompts you leave. The first three fills posted for each prompt will receive 15 points, the next three 10 points, and the next three 5 points. Prompts with ten or more fills will no longer receive fill points.
You can post prompts or fills for any ship this round, including gen/platonic ones (which should be indicated with an & as above). However, you may not fill your own prompt. We also encourage people not to fill prompts from their teammates, although the points will not be deducted if you do.
Bonus round fills can include links provided they are publicly viewable. Works can also be cross-posted to other websites, as there is no anonymity requirement in bonus rounds. However, works posted directly to comments will be limited to 16,000 characters by the Dreamwidth comment limit. Longer works should therefore be divided between multiple comments.
Remember, Team Chuck can participate in bonus rounds. Please note that only two prompts will receive points this round, although you can leave more if you wish to.
Edit: This round is now closed. No further points will be awarded.
PROMPT: Balthazar/Castiel (Team Castiel/Lucifer)

“Who else?”
“Why are you here? …where am I?”
“Limbo, I think. No one’s ever been clear about where we go when we die.”
“…”
“Don’t worry, Cassie. I’m sure you won’t stay here for very long. You never do.”
“No one will bring me back from this. Not after what I did…”
“Don’t look at me like that. You know I could never stand to see you sad.”
“Don’t pretend that still matters to you.”
“You’ll always matter to me.”
“You betrayed me and I killed you for it. I don’t understand how either of those things gives you any inclination to care for me.”
“What upsets you more? That I betrayed you or that you killed me?”
“…how can you expect me to answer that?”
“Truthfully.”
“Truthfully? I don’t know how to put it into words, Balthazar. How might it feel to have your wings ripped from your body? Is that an honest enough answer?”
“It was never my wish to cause you pain.”
“Then why did you?”
“Look at yourself. Look at where you are, what happened to you. Take that into consideration when you think about what I did, and maybe you will answer your own question.”
“…you could not have been certain this would happen.”
“I wasn’t. I didn’t need to be.”
“…”
“Is it so hard to believe I would do everything in my power to keep you safe?”
“…no.”
“Killing me was merciful, though; I don’t think it would have been easy to carry on with you hating me.”
“I never said I hated you.”
“Don’t you?”
“Balthazar…”
“Don’t. The guilt will crush you if you let it.”
“You were doing what you’ve always done, and I killed you for it. What am I becoming? I never wanted this…”
“You didn’t know. It’s not so bad here.”
“You should be alive.”
“I died protecting what I love the most. There are worse ways to die.”
“Worse than being killed by the brother you loved?”
“Yes.”
“What could be worse?”
“Not getting to see you once more before I died.”
“…I’m sorry…”
“I know. You’ve already been forgiven.”
“I don’t deserve to be. I don’t deserve you.”
“Do you realize I’ve been protecting you almost since you were created? We’re old, Cas. All that time, everything we’ve been through, that doesn’t just go away. If I had to die, I’d rather it be by your hand.”
“Balthazar, I-… what’s happening to me?”
“They’re taking you back… just go, Cas. Don’t fight it. You don’t belong here, not yet.”
“No, I’d rather stay with you.”
“I’ll be here. I’ll wait. Just promise you won’t forget me?”
“…never.”
