Final Fantasy Kissing Battle 2013

RULES

This year, we're creating Master Links for each fandom. When leaving prompts, please put it under the right canon! If in a compilation canon, please leave the important details!

To leave a prompt: leave one prompt per comment, with FANDOM: CHARACTERS/RELATIONSHIP in the subject line and your prompt in the body.

To leave a fill: reply to the comment in question. Please use the subject line of your comment to label your work: TITLE (if relevant), FANDOM, CHARACTERS/RELATIONSHIP, RATING (ANY KINKS, WARNINGS, FLAGS).

There should be kissing! All kinds of kisses are welcome: gen, shippy, smutty, chaste, familial, friendly, angry, happy! We’re pretty open to anything you want to call kissing. We are fans of all of it.

Fanart, fanfiction, drabbles, doodles, live action movies -- whatever you want to supply, we’d like to have it.

Be kind to others regarding character or ship choices and prompts. This should be fun for everyone!

Prompt early, prompt often, and leave as many as you want.

Prompts can be filled multiple times!

To leave a blitzkrieg kiss: If you have something but no one has prompted it yet, blitzkiss away! Just reply to the comment for your fandom, and make sure you use the subject line to label your work.

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'!

Strength.

[I just want some hawt knight-on-wizard action, damnit! i'm going to regret saying that aren't i?]

"Jelana? You okay? I didn't hurt you, did I?"

Jelana, for the third time in the past hour, pushed herself up from the muddy earth, almost dropping the sword in her hand, and wondered why she was inflicting this on herself. "I'm fine, Alia," she groaned, checking to make sure that she wasn't bleeding this time. The last time she'd fallen, her comrade had managed to give her a good scratch on the arm - not an overly painful one, and easy enough to clean and heal, but it had stung her pride, if nothing else. "Just... a little out of my element."

"Well, let's stop and rest a while, then." She heard Alia sheathe her sword. "I was starting to get tired, anyway."

Jelana bit back a groan. Her arms had been aching ever since this had started, but she was determined not to complain. She might not be as strong or as fast as her companion, but she wasn't going to quit. This had been her idea, and she didn't like giving up on anything. "If you insist," she said, trying to hide her gratitude behind gruff resignation.

She didn't know why she'd bothered; Alia noticed, like she always did. But she didn't call her out on it; she just smiled and handed her a flask of water. "Here," she said quietly. "It's nice and cool. Kelia's doing, of course."

"Thank you." Jelana did her best not to drink too quickly, for all that she was parched. The lands around the kingdom of the elves were temperate enough, but she had been under considerable strain. She'd learned to fight with her staff, if not to any degree of effectiveness, but wielding a sword was something else entirely, and she was so clumsy with it! She couldn't help but hold the damned thing as far away from herself as she could, terrified that she would fall on it during a bungled maneuver.

Alia led her over to the shade of one of the tall oaks and sat her down, still in view of the camp where the others waited. They had to stay close, in case one of those damned giants tried to swat them off of what they'd decided was their lands. If she'd been an elf king she would've wiped them out by now.

"Okay, hon, you are looking entirely too tense lately!" Alia stripped off her gauntlets and gloves, flexing her calloused fingers. "Turn around."

"Huh?" Jelana blinked at her companion, startled out of her brooding.

"Turn around and lean back so that I can give you a back rub!" Her green eyes gleamed under her helmet.

"Shouldn't we wait until we're back in town?" Jelana asked, blinking.

"We're safe here, silly. And it's just a back rub, not anything like that! Not like the other girls wouldn't understand anyway, right?"

Jelana turned away then, but mostly because she didn't want Alia to see her blush. That had been an awkward few moments, when the others had caught them kissing at the inn in Coneria. She'd thought Kelia would never stop teasing them. At least Lora had responded with some degree of composure, although she'd still grinned whenever she saw the two together.

It never bothered Alia and it shouldn't bother her. The four of them had agreed to watch each other's backs, hadn't they? They would've found out sooner or later, and it wasn't as if either of them had any problems with it. But having her personal life on display like that made her stomach churn, even when there was no reason for it.

"So tense, even when you're worn out," Alia murmured, her hands expertly finding the knots through her robes. Jelana couldn't keep herself from making a soft, grateful sound, almost a moan, despite her exhaustion. "Why won't you ever relax, darling?"

"Someone has to keep things together," Jelana murmured, softly. "Where would you all be without me?"

"Hmmm." She chuckled a bit. "But you're getting better, though. Remember when we sparred for the first time, before we met the others? You were sore for days after that!"

"I remember. I can't believe how much you tolerated my complaints." She had to smile at the thought. "And how you kept reminding me that I'd feel better if I kept at it."

"Well, you do, don't you?"

"I suppose," she said, and turned her head to kiss Alia as she leaned forward, a swift kiss on the lips. "I should thank you for your persistence. The Orb of Water chose you well."

Alia frowned slightly. "How so?"

"Well," Jelana answered, before leaning in for another kiss, "You always wear the stones down, in time."

"Mmmmm," Alia answered - there was little she could say besides that, under the circumstances. "We should perhaps go back to our tent, if we're to keep at this."

"Agreed." Jelana smiled. She wasn't even sure she'd object to the teasing.

ahhhhh, adorables ♥

Awww! Also, I am totally going to take this as backstory for why the White Mage/Wizard is able to use the Masamune. It might take until the final dungeon, but all that sparring will pay off!

Awww. I seem to have come down with a case of the fuzzies!

A Patient Warrior combined with a Determined Magic-User makes for such a fascinating dynamic. :D
