FINAL FANTASY KISS BATTLE 2021!
Feb. 3rd, 2021 11:13 am![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
HELLO FRIENDS????? Remember those fandoms we all used to be in? and producing things for? Well, baby, it's time for a nostalgia run, so buckle up your chocobos and get ready to roll. We haven't done a Kiss Battle in years and lassarina and I for one think it's TIME TO DO SO.
This event is open to everyone, even if we aren't DW circlefriends! (feel free to friend me too; i promise i'm not crazy that's a lie). If you aren't on DW, you can still play via anon or OpenID!
The Kiss Battle is simple. Players leave prompts in comments under each specific fandom, using generalized fandom nomenclature: a relationship of some sort, and a concept to inspire other players.
- For romantic relationship kisses, we use X / Y
- For platonic relationship kisses, we use X & Y
- Absolutely open to relationships with more than 2 people involved! X / Y / Z (/ A / B ...) welcome to this party!
- Prompts can be a word, a sentence, an image, a song lyric; it's a suggestion, rather than a request
- it's a kiss battle! there will be smooches!
Players then go looking for smoochin' prompts they'd like to fill. Fills can be fic, art, interpretive dance, whatever you're inspired to; they can be filled in a responding comment, or as a link (to AO3, tumblr, etc). FILLS GOTTA HAVE A KISS IN 'EM. IT'S A KISS BATTLE. What counts as a "kiss" is up to you, though -- you can be creative!
- Fills should use the comment header to let people know what the fill is; please use a format like "X / Y, (title), (rating), (any content warnings that might apply)"
- "Aerith/Tifa, memorial, G"
- "Cloud/Squall, just in time, R (blood)"
- Prompts can be filled multiple times! Don't worry if someone got there first; we love Two Cakes up in this event! The more kisses we get, the better!
- You can fill as anon if you want/need for any reason
- You can of course crosspost anywhere you'd like
It's a very simple game, and is meant to be played in good faith without anybody being a shitbag about pairings or characters. We're all too old for this.
FANDOM LINKS Fandoms with compilations and expansions should fall into their titled macrofandom. For example:
- FFXIII also includes FFXIII-2 and Lightning Returns (FFXIII-3)
- FFX also includes X-2
- FFIV includes the After Years
If you need to specify a certain microfandom / singular canon, please do so in the prompt or in the comment header!

You can also join the Final Fantasy Old Folks Home Discord and come gripe about those kids on our lawn and the old days where you had to level grind by hand lmao. Open to all FF fans!
BLITZ KISSINS If you already know what smooches you want to write, you don't need to wait for a prompt -- just comment into the relevant fandom thread with your kiss!

Date: 2021-02-03 08:37 pm (UTC)* i'm queenlua pretty much everywhere: here on DW, also on tumblr, also on AO3
* i'm most familiar with FF9, 10, 12, 13, and 15, but i'm reasonably familiar with 6, 7, and 8 as well, and i adore them all
* currently i'm into the Ace Attorney games & also Fire Emblem: Three Houses, but i'm down to talk about basically any of my fandoms at any time, lol
* idk if i "ship" much in the conventional sense; i will ship anything and everything that brings out interesting dynamics between characters; tbh any really messed-up or messy relationship is bound to get its hooks in me
that being said: i would die on a battlefield for the entire cast of FF9. i'm never going to be able to get over how ridiculously attractive FF13 Fang is. i think it's impossible to play FF15 without shipping basically all the dudes with each other, in every permutation, at some point. FF8 cracks me up because they're all fuckin serious business soldiers and shit but they're all also like 17 and act it. god all these canons are so good sighs into hands
* if you follow me on DW, it'll be mostly book reviews and sometimes video game reviews and very occasionally pretentious bullshit. if you follow me on Tumblr it'll be shitposting and birds and snark. you're welcome to lurk or say hi or whatever, i'm just here to vibe yaknow (that and rewrite the same fuckin FFXV fic over and over for years while crying, you know, very normal fanfic author moods)
sup broskis
Date: 2021-02-03 10:53 pm (UTC)Slightly less than faves: FF15, FF4, FF6.
I really want to play but haven't yet for no great reason, my shame is great: FF9.
Re: FINAL FANTASY FRIENDING THREAD
Date: 2021-02-04 02:56 am (UTC)other socials: Uhhh I'm
FFs: all of them except 11, pretty much. My faves are FF6, {The Ivalice Alliance}, FF4, FF9, FF14, and then the rest wobble around in some order below that.
Fandoms: FF generally, Marvel, Dragon Age, Mass Effect, Shin Megami Tensei, Persona (yes they're separate)
Favorite Characters and Ships: Kain, Celes, Balthier, Locke/Celes, Kain/kicking with pointy boots, Balthier/Ashe (but only with sharp edges), Auron/Lulu, Seifer/Quistis, Seifer/Irvine
other: my journal has a weekly post for chatting about games we're playing! I talk about writing and my life and yell about tech stuff sometimes. I love to read books as well as fanfic. I'm terrible at watching TV shows and movies unless it's Marvel and even then it's hard. I love suffering and knights and history and I am like a kitten: enthusiasm and energy in bursts and then I fall over.

foisting uponsharing with others. Fair warning. ;)Re: FINAL FANTASY FRIENDING THREAD

Final Fantasy things I know: FFVI, FFIV (still haven't played TAY,) FFV, FFVI, FFVII (including AC and FFVIIr,) FFVIII, FFIX, FFX, FFXIII... there are so many I still need to get caught up on.

(Some) Favorite FF ships: Barret/Tifa (OTP forever), Setzer/Daryl, Freya/Amarant, Quistis/Rinoa and more... also a whole bunch of OT3s because I ship so many of those.
Anyway I'm far more active on Tumblr because their format is just easier for me, as I'm working 12+ hours a day including weekends at times. Very little time to write long posts and whatnot. But I do hang out and try to read here, when I can. :)

Date: 2021-02-13 10:50 pm (UTC)Listen. Quistis/Rinoa has been growing on me and I accidentally left it out on my FF8 pairings because I forgot. LOL But yes. I love them so much, together.
I also followed you on my tumblr! I'm not nearly as active on there as I used to be, but I wouldn't mind poking around and seeing how you're doing on there if it's fine! c:
Re: FINAL FANTASY FRIENDING THREAD
Date: 2021-02-13 10:42 pm (UTC)Hi there! My fandom name is
SapientesGladio on AO3. I had a tumblr with that name but because it's 2-FA is locked under an old phone number, I have no access to that account anymore. You're definitely free to look at it. It's a relic of the past considering the layout has Ditto from Drakengard 3.
is my twitter. I am a shit poster, live tweeting and chaotic person on there. If you're interested in chatting there, you're more than welcome to! I want more Dreamwidth friends tho. LOL
My pronouns are she/her & they/them! I don't mind either, frankly.
FFs I'm familiar with: I'm taking this from a lore and writing wise perspective, otherwise I've played FFs (II, IV, VI-X-2, XII, XIII & XIII-2, XV, Tactics/WOTL, Crisis Core, Dissidia [PSP & Opera Omnia] & Bravely Default). I'm most familiar with VII, VIII, XII, XV, and Dissidia. Presently most of my content has been FF8 related but I'm shifting towards Apex Legends (momentarily, I need a break from my other projects).
Currently active fandoms: 13 Sentinels, FF8, Dissidia, and Apex Legends for the moment. I'm enjoying reminiscing with people that know where the namesake of my fandom name comes from. Haha
Fav FF characters: Zack, Ramza, Delita, Fang, Aranea, Zidane, Squall and Selphie.
My favorite ships of all time are:
IV: Cecil/Kain/Rosa, Cecil/Kain, Kain/Rosa
VII: GainsHart/AerTi (Aerith/Tifa) & Valenwind (Cid/Vincent)
VIII: Lion's Rapture (Squall/Selphie), Burning Lion's Wall (Squall/Selphie/Zell - Timber Trio), Romantic Dream (Seifer/Rinoa), Laguna/Raine, Julia/Caraway & Laguna/Kiros
IX: Garnet/Zidane (
XII: Larnelo (Larsa/Penelo)
Dissidia: 589/59/58/89 (Bartz/Squall/Zidane and their pairing variants - Dissidia) 2/4 (Firion/Kain) 8/10 (Squall/Yuna)
There's probably more but.... I don't remember them and these are the ones that come to mind.
I am a strange creature. LOL If you're into homeskillets just trying to vibe and also creating chaos, I'm that gal!
Re: FINAL FANTASY FRIENDING THREAD
Date: 2021-02-17 04:04 pm (UTC)other social accounts you'd like to share (tumblr, AO3, insta, etc): I'm twistedsinews on Tumblr, which is where you can find me most often. FireEye on AO3. I have a Discord account, but I have a difficult time keeping up with it for some reason I'll just forget to turn it on forever and a week. Streamlining my online presence is actually on my list of projects for this year, but who knows if I get to it. I'm also on the fic exchange circuit pretty regularly.
FFs you're familiar with: I-X, IV: TAY, X-2, XII, Tactics, Tactics Advance, Crystal Chronicles, Mystic Quest; Legend of the Crystals, The Spirits Within, Unlimited... and I know I'm missing at least one, but I mostly hang around in I-VI and Tactics these days. (I'm probably going to give XIII and XV a shot one of these days, and I am sorely tempted by XIV because apparently young Doga & Une??)
fandoms you're active in at the moment: At any given time, I mind find reason to write (random old game/movie/series/book I love). These include a bunch of other Square and Enix titles. Other than that, I'm currently trapped in Cyberpunk 2077 'ow, fuck you game, why in eternity's name was i born with feelings??' hell.
favorite FF characters or ships: phew... a lot. too many!
Top Fave Characters: Arylon, Leila, Elia, Rydia, Faris, Terra, Agrias
Top Pairings: Light Warriors/Light Warriors, Leila/Paul, Doga/Une, Rydia/Kain, Faris/Butz, Terra/Locke/Celes, Agrias/Mustadio/Orlandu
...for real, I multiship and polyship and routinely go, 'hey I like that character and this character what would hapPEN IF I MAKE THEM KISS' for... you know, science.
something fun or witty idk how do people make friends: idk either sev i am over here trying to convince the fictional characters kiss what more do you want from me
Warning Label: I can and will swear like a sailor. I have a fun mixture of anxiety rolling around in my brain, including the social kind. I can be pretty quiet and terrible at staying in contact, maybe as a result idk, but I am making more of an effort these days. I can and will send virtual hugs for no reason whatsoever.

Re: FINAL FANTASY FRIENDING THREAD
Date: 2021-02-28 07:27 pm (UTC)Fandom name: Inky
Pronouns: she/her
Socials:
I'm most familiar with FFT and FFIX-- I've seen friends play FFVII and FFVII, as well as general familiarity with other titles. I hope to play more of the games but admittedly I do like to stay in my corner of sad noseless pixel people (FFT is a very good game in my humble opinion). I also play Opera Omnia! I'm bad at it, but I play it!
Active Fandoms: Final Fantasy, Dishonored, Legend of Dragoon, Elder Scrolls, and Pokemon to name the biggest, longest lasting interests ;D
Fave FF Characters: ok here we go, tier list time!
Absolute Faves- Ramza, Delita, Mustadio, Argath (yes you read that right), Laguna, Yuna, Tidus
Yeah they're cool~- Cait Sith, Steiner, Kain (put here for a friend YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE), the Figaro brothers, Zell, and honorary mention Hat Guy
Opera Omnia-induced Faves- Machina, Prishe, Vayne, Y'shtola, and Warrior of Light.
Fave FF Ships: ohhhhh boyyy i can generally ship a LOT but these are off the top of my head
YES! tier- Yuna/Tidus, any combination of Ramza/Delita/Argath, Dycedarg/Ruvelia (you can blame
Sure why not?- Argath/Tietra, Ovelia/Valmafra & Ovelia/Agrias, Mustadio/Roguish Mischief (Mustadio/Ovelia or Mustadio/Ramza, alternatively), and light-hearted and one-sided Relm/Edgar (puppy crush... this one is 'fresh off the presses' new and I'm not sure how I feel about thinking it's cute)
Extra credit: As a fan that hasn't actually played TOO many of the games, I'm open to suggestions of where to go! Currently I'm going to try and play my copy of FFIII I got a few years ago!

Date: 2021-03-16 12:39 am (UTC)I've also found this super late ;; but hey! sharing still.
your fandom name / pronouns: Notho or Ñire! (She/Them)
other social accounts you'd like to share
twitter: https://twitter.com/FFNotho
AO3: https://archiveofourown.org/users/Nothofagus_antarctica/
I have a Deviantart too, but most of my art there is animal/nature themed: https://www.deviantart.com/nothofagus-obliqua
FFs you're familiar with I'm an old person, but very much a baby FF fan still ;; FFIV+Interlude+After years, Opera Omnia (albeit I fell very behind with this one), soon FFVII and others!
fandoms you're active in at the moment Not really active nowadays! But I used to be deep into the Saint Seiya/The Lost Canvas one. Right now I wanna focus on FF, I have SO much content yet to discover!
favorite FF characters or ships I adore everybody from FF4. They're all precious sweet children. My top favourite is Edward, but I also adore Cecil, Kain. Tellah, Golbez, Rosa, Rydia and others!
I also really enjoyed characters from other games in OO, but I'd love to play their original games as well!
Fav pairing? CecilxEdward
Sad sweet traumatised bois who need and deserve many many hugs.
(but I honestly have a LOT of ships! xD even bizarre ones. And I also ship everybodyxEdward basically, as I adore this child like there's no tomorrow)
something fun or witty idk how do people make friends
I don't consider myself a very good writer, but I pour a lot of love into my stories. I'm very much nature oriented, for they're related to my main hobbies (hiking+wildlife watching+botanics) so some of this nerdism will most likely show up somehow. I enjoy all styles, from fluff to angst to slice of life and slash.
Also, I'm always eager to met new people, I'm a bit shy at first but very talkaltive and really fond of leaving comments to stories and fanarts!
Re: FINAL FANTASY FRIENDING THREAD
Date: 2021-08-08 07:09 pm (UTC)* Please call me Duncan or Bravo, either is fine for me. I'm a cishet guy (he/him), so I kinda feel like a unicorn in this space. In a good way, I guess.
* I'm Bravo_Figaro on AO3, @ MasterDuncan7 on Twitter, and master-duncan on tumblr
* I've played FF6-FF12, but FF6 is the only one that really took root in my mind. I waste time and money on the various FF mobile games, so I've got a passing familiarity with nearly everything.
* I've just picked up the idea of participating in fandom a few months back. I'm only here for FF6 at the moment.
* It's so tricky to pick a favorite from FF6 - after the Figaros, of course. I thought I didn't ship anyone in particular, but my Terra/Sabin fic got me on board for them.
* Fun Fact! As a child I first had access to the Japanese Famicom FF6 game. Somehow played through and beat that (knowing no Japanese). It was wonderful to play FF3 a year or two later and learn what it was that I already loved.
Edit: seems that discord invite expired. I'd love to join if that's okay :)
