[owlmoose]

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 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 ovo_lexa, there is now a Mass Effect Kiss Battle underway! (Now with bonus correct link! Oops.) Check it out.

Alistair/f!Warden, Ten Years Counting, PG-13

[fireeye]

She had returned from the Bannorn the same day he was to set out for Kirkwall. The few minutes they’d had together that day was short and sweet, and full of unspoken promise. The day he’d returned, Nathaniel had been waiting for him, gripping his bow so tightly that his knuckles turned white.

So he’d set out again, immediately. No other choice, really.

The Deep Roads were dry and hot and left his lips cracked and his throat parched. The hardtack certainly wasn’t helping, and to make matters worse, he was almost out of that. Such grousing was chased from his mind by the baying of a hound. Pausing mid-stride, he strained his ears and, hearing the distant din of battle, hurried on.

What he found was beyond a nightmare. Darkspawn had fallen around them. The growling dog yelped a warning; upon recognizing him, the growl became a pained whine. Slumped against the bloodstained flagstones, she was deathly still.

Desperate, Alistair pushed the mabari away. Gathering her into his arms, he kissed her lips, tasting taint where once he’d tasted life. As if roused by a miracle, she stirred. Gasping for air, she reached for the weapon that had fallen from her grasp. He caught her hand in his and squeezed; it quieted her, for even blind, she knew him.

“They’re coming,” she rasped, not even a whisper. Pained, he rocked her gently, feeling darkspawn stronger than he could feel the woman in his arms. “I know.”
