Dragon Age Kiss Battle!

As hinted/threatened, here it is!

Dragon Age Kiss Battle!


Based on the Kiss Battle that has run in the Final Fantasy fandom for the last few years (credit to [personal profile] seventhe for the most recent variation on the rules), this is just a fun way to celebrate February with lots of fun kissing fanworks. Any kind of kiss is welcome -- het, slash, femmeslash; shippy, familial, gen; cheek kisses, mouth kisses, kissing of... other things; serious fic, fluffy fic, silly fic; fanfic, fanart, whatever you come up with; anything goes!

The post will open to prompts and comments at approximately 9AM Pacific Time, Tuesday February 7th (Click here for the time in your timezone). I don't anticipate closing it at any point, so come by any time! Update: posting is now open!!

Update: I have created a master list of fic, here! If new stories are added, I will link them from the master list.

Update, Feb. 5th 2012: This is the 2012 kiss battle, and as of now it is closed to prompts. If you are interested in participating in the 2013 round, check out the info post!

THE RULES:

  1. To leave a request: Post a comment with a pairing (or moresome) and, if desired, a prompt. Put the pairing/characters in the subject line and the prompt in the body of the comment.

  2. To respond: Reply to the prompting comment. Include characters, rating, and title in the subject line.

  3. Multiple responses are both allowed and encouraged!

  4. There is no limit to the number of prompts you can post.

  5. Please, be kind to others regarding pairing choices, prompts, or anything else. This game is for everyone! :)

  6. Anon commenting is on, as is OpenID, if you neither have nor want a Dreamwidth account.

  7. Send your friends! :D


If you have questions, please ask them here. Thanks, and happy kissing!!

Update: Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] ovo_lexa, there is now a Mass Effect Kiss Battle underway! (Now with bonus correct link! Oops.) Check it out.

I Won't Say Goodbye: Warden Tabris and Shianni, unbelievably PG

It had been something of a tradition, a silly little thing that they had heard about once. One of the elders was talking about running away to join the Dalish - in the end, they found out, he had been killed on the road, but this was much later because you just did not tell wide-eyed children that kind of story - and he was sat in the middle of a group of younglings as he packed his few trinkets into a bag. The actual packing, of course, was taking much longer than necessary as he weaved them tales of tradition. Looking back, Shianni wonders how much was really true and how much was bullshit he had been told as a youngling by some foolhardy elder who had ended up dead on the road.
Nevertheless, this one thing had stuck.

"You're leaving."
Your cousin lets out a frustrated huff of air. "Yeah."
"I... is it wrong that I want you to stay? Just for a little while."
"I wish I could, Shianni, but I don't really have much of a choice. Duncan says we need to be out of the city by dusk."
"I know." You let out a deep sigh as you regard your dearest cousin, armed and ready for a fight. It looks natural on her. You wish you were so prepared for your own battles. "I love you, cousin."
She smiles, taking your hands gently in her own. "Love you too." Kissing the back of your hands in turn, she squeezes your fingers gently. You mimic the action, the taste of her skin already dusty under your lips. "I'll be back. Promise."
"Keep your tracks hidden and your memories of home worn," you say.
"Sing of my victories and remember my peace," she replies, and you embrace one last time before she walks out of your life.
