VERY IMPORTANT
This contest is ONLY open to the winners of round one.
The contestants are as follows:

descending-angel
Eddie

Also, only new writes this time. No pre-writes.
As well, REMEMBER TO PUT YOUR USERNAME IN THE AUTHOR NOTES.
You guys had no problem with that last time though (:

Now onto the contest:

Prompts.

Every good writer should be able to be inspired by some type of material, whether it be a line, a name, a title or a picture. I'll give you some of these and you can choose whether to use one or six of them. But please, for every prompt you use, mention it in your author notes or you will not get points for it.

I have a marking rubric this time:

Prompt use: /15
Creativity: /10
Spelling/Grammar: /10
Message/Point of the Story: /5
Rule following (including author notes): /5
Authenticity: /5

Note: Writing a fantasy story does not affect authenticity. Everything must seem real to your story and not necessarily to reality.

Okay prompts:

Images. (These are all taken from Google. Everything belongs not to me, but to their rightful owners):

So as you can see from the song titles and images, it seems very easy to make a romance, but it's not required. Rules for this contest are:

Swearing, erotica and gay stories welcomed as long as all three are classy and not cheaply done.
Any genre allowed.
No prewrites.
Remember to include username and prompts in your author notes.
Eight of you will continue on.
I will raise point value if all of you enter before the final date, so get on each others backs.
Contest closes on set date, no exception without reasonable excuse from either you or I.
Only those mentioned can enter.
Between 200 and 2700 words please.
I will mark you all on the same criteria (see above)
One entry per contestant.

And go. (:
