well HELLO FRIENDS????? after MUCH delay which is MY OWN FAULT, i am here to present to you the tiny fandom event of the year: Final Fantasy Kiss Battle 2022!!
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 but at least i'm sometimes funny). 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!

Date: 2022-02-15 06:22 pm (UTC)(There's a scene in the FFIII DS opening where Luneth is speaking passionately about something and Ingus shoves his shoulder and Luneth gets a GRR face, and I was SO DISAPPOINTED that's not in the actual game anywhere. would love to see this scene!)
Re: FINAL FANTASY III
Date: 2023-01-01 03:55 am (UTC)(tbh that intro’s accurate to their dynamic, just not in the way you’d expect)
“Where do you get off being so damn uptight?!”
Ingus’ dismissive glance did not change as Luneth continued to rant about the soldier’s behavior. In truth, said behavior was in direct response to the silver-haired boy’s behavior; Luneth was rather casual in addressing the soldiers and staff of Castle Sasune. Refia already gave him grief for addressing Princess Sara as if she were a random traveler, although Sara actually seemed rather interested by it. Luneth addressing the king in a similar fashion, however, was what prompted Ingus to pull him aside.
Ingus hadn’t really expected much of a reaction given that Refia’s scoldings seemed to go in one ear and out the other, but he was surprised when Luneth retaliated with his own list of grievances. Ingus started off unamused by Luneth calling him a coward, but over time he seemed somewhat intrigued by Luneth’s yelling.
It was almost adorable.
As if to emphasize his annoyance, Luneth took a few steps forward, gesturing angrily. Ingus wasn’t phased and gave him a light shove backwards. The Sasune soldier was rewarded with a glare from the Ur youth.
”I oughta kick your ass for that.” Luneth pouted. This resulted in a raised eyebrow from Ingus, which made Luneth even more annoyed. “Don’t look at me like that! I will!”
“You are a village boy. I am a trained soldier. I doubt it.”
“That’s not as good as you think. Your moves are too obvious. I would see them coming.”
Ingus paused, as if to process that information.
“...Too obvious, you say?”
“Yeah!” Luneth huffed. “I bet you Sasune guys all fight the same. You’re all trained the same anyway.”
Ingus stared intently at Luneth. He marched over to Luneth and locked eyes with him. Luneth felt himself hesitate under Ingus’ icy blue eyes, but he held his ground and kept his purple eyes trained on his opponent.
There was a long silence. Then, Ingus spoke.
“Very well then. I am going to attack you. Let us see if you can truly predict what I will do.”
“Of course I will!” Luneth boasted. “You’re not so tough.”
If Ingus had a reply, he thought the better of it. Instead, he held his gaze with Luneth. Luneth remained at the ready, ready to intercept any arms or legs that came at him. And yet, Ingus did not move. The staring contest between the two was likely no more than a few minutes, but it felt like an eternity.
Luneth started getting restless. What is this, some sort of psyche? Did Ingus simply want him to walk away? Was he just doing it to waste ti-
Ingus attacked.
In the split-second between the initial movement and the attack, Luneth cursed himself; He hadn’t considered the possibility of Ingus going for a headbutt, since what kind of trained soldier did that? All too late did Luneth notice that Ingus wasn’t going for a headbutt, but actually:
Smooch
The boy from Ur went wide-eyed as drew Ingus back, entertainment in his eyes betraying his stoic disposition. Luneth timidly put a hand to his lips as his face went scarlet.
“W-what was that?!” He said, a little too high-pitched for his liking.
“You said that you could predict what I was going to do.”
“Yeah, b-but that-I mean-that wasn’t-!” Luneth seemed unable to articulate his words before catching himself. He looked at Ingus, a smirk slowly appearing on his face. “Fine, you win. I really wasn’t expecting that. But just you wait! I’ll get you back for that. You won’t even see it coming!”
The boy in the purple sweater turned back to Ingus one last time before leaving. As he moved to follow, the soldier couldn’t help but notice that Luneth’s demeanor seemed to have perked up.
