Bonus Round 3

[centrumlumina]

Tale as old as time, true as it can be...

Bonus Round 3 is now open! This time, the theme is fairy tales and childhood favourites. Entries should be inspired in some way by classic fairy tales, Disney films, or other childhood classics.

If you have an idea for something you’d like to see, please leave a setting, 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.

This round is now closed.

"You have got to be kidding me. I get all this way and you're telling me there is no gold?"

Bela sighed, exasperated. All that trouble to get to the damn island, two whole weeks of planning and surveillance before the dragon finally left to feed, only to get inside and find that there was absolutely no treasure. Just a loud, rude little girl.

"Excuse me!?"
"Yes, excuse you. I'm sorry I even bothered. What a waste of my time. If I had known I would be halfway to China by now. I hear there's a wonderfully rich emperor who has fallen sick about to be buried with a mountain of precious ivory. I hope to God when I get there I don't find another one of you instead."
"Another one of me? Look here lady, you can't just blow me off like this. You have to take me back with you. I'm sure my father will pay you if I get home safely."

Bela gave a skeptical glance to the skinny blonde.

"Oh really?"

Jo frowned, hands on her hips. She had been following Bela around the castle for twenty minutes now as the thief searched the place for any valuables that someone might have left behind.

"Yes really. My father is a king, and he is a good king. The people respect him. Anything you wanted, he could get for you. Just take me with you. Get me out of here."
"No."
"Why not!?"
"How long have you been here?"
"... two years."
"How many people have come to rescue you?"
"What does that matter?"
"If your father could really get anything he wanted, don't you think he could have gotten someone to rescue you by now? No, thank you. I will take my chances with the Huns."

Suddenly Bela felt the cold bite of steel against the back of her neck, but before she could react the princess had shoved her up against the wall.

"Don't you talk about my father that way. So what if there hasn't been anyone to rescue me? Men are cowards. Now if you want gold, I can get it for you, but you will help me off this damned island first."

Bela was surprised to find that the princess was so strong, and apparently very quick with a knife. She made a small noise of agreement and Jo let her up from the wall.

"Alright fine. We should get going then, before the dragon gets back."
"You didn't kill the dragon!?"

Bela laughed.

"Of course not. Why would I? It's so much easier to steal from a dragon than it is from a king."
