  • Be sure to check back often -- new kissing action could be showing up everywhere!

  • Spread the word! Tell your friends!



FINAL FANTASY KISS BATTLE 2013



We will be running the Kissing Battle on Dreamwidth only. There are two main reasons for this: 1) Dreamwidth’s comment limit is huge, allowing for longer kissing masterpieces; and 2) Dreamwidth still supports subject lines for comments, which are vital to a meme like the Kiss Battle. However, the Battle is open to everyone. Feel free to participate with your Dreamwidth (account creation is invite-free right now~!), your Livejournal or other OpenID account (see here if you want to set up an OpenID), or anonymously.

Have fun! Get smoochin'!

[BlitzKiss!] Tactical Retreat, FFV, Fariz/Butz, PG-13

[personal profile] fireeye 2013-02-08 06:59 am (UTC)(link)
Faris guts her opponent, then spins to catch him as he falls at her back, the rough handling tearing a strangled sound from his throat. By the time she straightens to heft him over her shoulder, the world has mercifully faded to dim shadow.

The pain ripples through his body. Butz is vaguely aware that they’re on the cave floor, vaguely aware the Faris is angry, or at least that she has already called him every epithet in the book, and then some. Vaguely aware that her arms are wrapped around his shoulders as raw magic courses through him, and very, very aware of that same excruciating magic shooting down every nerve.

Choking down a mouthful of his own blood, Butz tastes fresh air. He opens his eyes to bright, warm daylight streaming through the cavern, and has to squint to focus on the capricious pirate hunched over him. He licks at the dried cut in lips, and his eyebrows arc, quizzical.

“...y’love me...”

Faris snickers – a haggard, wheezing sound. Magery was not her strength, and she had too swiftly poured herself thin.

“How would ye know?” she asks, voice stronger than her laugh. Her arms tighten around his shoulders, and she rocks them both gently, not unlike the sea. “Ye have naught but wind ‘twixt yer ears.”

“Heard you.” His eyes drift closed again. A chuckle bubbles up from within his chest, mingling with a dry, rasping cough. “Said y’love me.”

“Y’be daft,” she scoffs. Her chin comes to rest against his shoulder. “Ye’re dyin’.” She nuzzles against his throat, mouth meeting his yet unsteady pulse. “Ye’re hearin’ things.”

“Fffh-” His first attempt at her name comes out as a hiss of air against his teeth, and he has to catch his breath before he can try again. “Faris?”

There’s a breath of air against his neck, warm and weary. “Aye, lad?”

A thin smile graces his lips as he blinks at the wavering summer sunlight on the cave ceiling, reflected from a deep wellspring. He reaches to pat her shoulder, and his hand comes to rest comfortably between her shoulders.

“Love you, too.”

Cut Loose, FFV, Lenna&Faris, PG

[personal profile] fireeye 2013-02-09 08:29 am (UTC)(link)
The pendant’s chain wrapped around her hand. She flicked her wrist, and it twirled the opposite direction, coiling around her fingers until the pendant struck her knuckles. Back and forth.

At Lenna’s approach, the pirate caught the pendant in her palm, lowering her hand. She sighed deeply, then shifted her weight, and dashed the contents of her pipe, letting the dimly lit sparks and ash fly free on the evening wind. After an extended examination of the flute, she packed it away in a pocket.

At long last, when Lenna didn’t speak, Faris did. “Need somethin’?”

“If you knew, why didn’t you tell me?” Lenna asked. There was a softness to her voice. A strength, too. No doubt, royals perfected that type of thing.

“Had an hunch,” Faris admitted. “Didn’t know, not like ye say it.”

Lenna nodded. “Are you going to be alright?”

Faris’ lips moved in answer, but no sound came out. She chuckled, breathless.

“Ye remember,” she asked, rolling her voice deeply under her tongue, as though burying the words would bury the pain. “When I were young and foolish; I burned up my arms all over. And ye were such a tiny thing, barely even knew how to talk yet, but ye snuck in when they laid me up and ye kissed the bandages, sayin’ it would make all th’ hurt go away.”

Lenna clasped her hands together, tilting her head ever so slightly as she listened with rapt attention. Faris doubted she did remember; she had no way of knowing, either way – that little girl was a ghost of a memory, and here she had a queen.

“Well.” Faris scratched at the nape of her neck, and sighed. “Ye can’t heal everything with a few kind words. Those burns still hurt, and so does this.”

Closing her eyes, Lenna breathed deeply in, then deeply out. “Sarisa-...”

“Now look here,” Faris interrupted, and her sister’s eyes snapped open. “We ain’t been family longer than we been strangers. Let it go, princess.” Shaking her head, she turned away, and put distance between them. “Let me be.”

(so faris is apparently annoyed that i haven't paid her enough attention lately and is eating my brains, send help)


The tavern door creaked open with a steady thump, prompting Butz to look up from the loose leafs of sheet music. He glanced a second time, when he realized it wasn’t another wayward scholar out for a midnight snack.

“What time is-...” The clock on the far wall fielded the answer, and his question changed to, “Where have you been all day?” As she passed the table, she dropped a bag in front of him, which clinked as it settled heavily. Without thinking, he reached for it. “What’s this?”

“Highway robbery.”

“You’ve been robbing people?” His forehead creased in contemplation as he weighed the purse in his hand. “I thought we weaned you off of that.”

“Naah.” Faris reached over the bar, pulling out a bottle at random. She blew at the host of flyaways that scattered in her face as she righted herself, then pushed them into place behind her ear.

“They tried to rob me. End o’ th’ damned world – two worlds at that – an’ catchpenny jackals still can’t let it lie.” She jabbed a finger at him around the neck of the bottle she’d purloined. “Do ye know how much paper an’ ink be involved in collectin’ bounties?” Not waiting for an answer, she scoffed and shook her head, then started to work off the wax seal with her fingernails. “Not bloody worth it, I’m tellin’ ye.”

Faris took one swig of the bottle’s contents and choked. Managing to swallow the mouthful, she eyed the black-blue glass with suspicion and set it aside.

“So you’ve been out... what, fighting would-be bad guys?” Reaching behind the counter again, Faris pulled forth a dusty brown bottle. She brushed it off and worried at the seal. “Alone? All day?”

“Better’n sitting around, scratching my arse,” she replied before sampling the contents of the brown bottle. Judging by the way her face twisted up, it was hardly more agreeable than the blue, but she took a second, less than scrupulous gulp out of it anyway. “An’ a far sight better’n waitin’ for Exdeath to pull somethin’ else I love into the vast empty nothin’ while a bunch o’ misbegot scholars sit around scratchin’ each other’s.”

Butz rolled his sheets back into their case, haphazard and out of order. He joined her at the bar, folding his arms on the counter. It took him three times, but he managed to start, “Look, Faris, I know you’re hurting-...”

“Do ye really,” she muttered, twisting to set her back to the bar.

“Yeah, I mean...” Butz glanced at the bottle on the counter for inspiration, then back to Faris. “Reina was your sister, and that’s gonna hurt, and she was my friend-...” He winced; no, that wasn’t the way to say it. “Okay, so maybe I haven’t had as much tangled up in this as you do, but I know what it’s like to lose someone close, and I...” Crud. He’d had time to plan this all day, why hadn’t he? “I guess what I’m trying to spit out is, I care, alright? I care, and I don’t know what I can do to help, or if I can help, but I’m here for you and want to help you through this.”

Regarding him coolly, Faris took another swig off the bottle. Butz sighed, rubbing his eyes. “If I can.”

Faris swirled the liquor, then set it aside. “Th’ kid asleep?”

“Krile?” Butz scratched behind his ear, glancing to the stairs. “I-... yeah. Why?”

“‘Cause.” Without warning, Butz found himself shoved against the bar, at a complete loss, with a pirate’s teeth scraping against his lips. Keeping him pinned in place with her knee, unnecessarily at that, Faris leaned back to shrug out of her jacket and throw it aside. Voice raw, she murmured into his throat. “I could use somethin’ a wee bit harder than rum right now.”
