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.

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

Spread the word! Tell your friends!

FINAL FANTASY KISS BATTLE 2015

We will be running the Kiss 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'!

Last chance in the Calm Lands

Something broke in Auron in Zanarkand. Braska watched him stumble down Mt. Gagazet, all his slow, certain grace gone, as if he had to remind each muscle to move one by one. He didn’t sleep anymore. He ate only when Braska reminded him.

Braska could only watch his friend suffer, afraid that comforting him wouldn’t be a kindness. After all, he was the cause of Auron’s suffering, and there was only more of it to come. They had come too far to turn back now, Jecht’s sacrifice made, Jecht himself only the glimmer of a thought in the back of Braska’s mind.

On the last morning, Braska strode through the fields of the calm lands to the spot he had already chosen, Auron following close behind.

“Braska?”

No “my lord,” just “Braska.”

Braska stopped. Before he could turn, Auron had grabbed him by the collar of his robe, his brown eyes wide and wild. He stopped there, staring, unsure of what to do or perhaps losing his nerve. Braska made a move to reach out to him, and Auron pulled him down, crushing their lips together.

The kiss was all desperation and no art, and it occurred to Braska that Auron had probably never kissed anyone before. Braska placed one hand on Auron’s hip and the other on his neck to give him a first, and last, lesson. The hairs on the back of Auron’s neck stood on end as Braska touched him there, and as Auron realized Braska wasn’t pushing him away, he deepened the kiss, pulling the two even closer together.

Braska didn’t know if this kiss was the fruit of some long unspoken passion or merely an outpouring of Auron’s obvious devotion. It didn’t matter now. Braska could only accept and return what couldn’t be said with words.

“Forgive me, my lord, forgive my selfishness,” Auron gasped when their lips finally separated.

“You are many things, my friend, but never selfish,” Braska laughed.

“It’s taking everything in my power not to throw myself on the ground and beg you not to do this. Damn Spira and damn Jecht and damn Yevon, I would keep you for myself.”

Braska’s heart tightened in his chest. Jecht had already given his life for him. What did he ever do to deserve such reckless devotion?

“I wish I could die in your place,” Auron said.

“I know,” Braska said sadly. “But I need you yet, and Yuna will need you. Please, Auron, if you love me, protect my daughter. Guard her as well as you have guarded me.”

“I do love you.”

After a time, Auron calmed and shook himself. He raised his sword, ready to guard his summoner with his own life and body one last time.
