seventheHELLO 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!
REMEMBER It's only fun if everybody plays, so if you leave a prompt, try to fill someone else's!

Date: 2021-02-14 06:42 pm (UTC)You've been in the lab all morning, trying to get through this one test. The exhaustion is getting to you. You want to go home and sleep, but there's so much left to be done.
You barely notice your husband walk into the room, until he steps behind you. His hand is steady and reassuring on your back. "Any results from the second run?" he asks you quietly.
"Not yet." You manage a smile. "I'm giving it another ten minutes."
He hums softly, squeezing your shoulder before walking away. It sends a shiver down your spine; he always knows what to do with his hands, no matter what they are doing. It's one of the reasons he does so well in this profession.
He's been almost kind to you ever since your argument with Vincent - a perfect husband, perhaps one day a loving father. You know why, and you know how little it has to do with you, but still... it's comforting, when you spend so much time standing on your feet, staring at tiny displays.
"After this run, we should rest. It's been hours, after all," he says as he comes back from checking another readout. He leans over behind you and kisses you on the temple. His lips are cold and cracked, his eyes gleaming under the harsh lights. He is not good at being romantic and it is strange to see him trying so hard.
Still, she smiles. This was still more than she'd hoped for, when she'd followed her mind instead of her heart. "You're right. Let's go for lunch afterwards."
