RULES

All prompts will be organized by fandom, using Master Links. When leaving prompts, please put it under the right canon! If in a compilation canon, please include 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 2014

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'!

Dear Lord! I never expected someone to actually fill my prompt, thank you so much! Disturbing indeed, but I knew what I was getting into when I asked for this pairing xD I very much enjoyed your story, the narration is exquisite and it has so many powerful metaphors.

I really like your characterisations, Madeline in particular. I like that she was an intelligent and educated young woman and Gestahl’s schemes stripped her not only of what she had, but what she was. (As he’ll later do with her daughter.) And Madeline’s father being Gestahl’s former associate is such an interesting concept! The first time I played the game I was expecting that Maddie would turn out to be someone from Gestahl’s past, either his daughter or an unrequited love, but the game fell short of my expectations, so I really love what you came up with here, something like this makes Maddie’s on-screen death even more dramatic and meaningful: Gestahl got his payback, and later Maddie’s own daughter would return him the favour.

I also love how and where you included the quote from the prompt, that was such an excellent touch ;)

Oh god, and that “sex” scene was bloodcurdling! I think you managed to keep Gestahl in character even through this one. He’s impatient and demanding and at the very bottom only cares about power and control, not about satisfying his primal urges, which was perfectly conveyed here, though poor Maddie had to suffer through Gestahl’s failed display of dominance. And I can see Gestahl sort of compensating for this failure with his later actions.

The ending was perfect, and I love how it ties in with the game’s main storyline. Absolutely fantastic!
