CELEBRATING THE HOLIDAY EVERYONE LOVES TO HATE*

Fandom: taking back Valentine's Day since 2008!

So last year bottle-of-shine had a Kissing Battle. The last edition is here (EDITED TO ADD: this is the old battle, not the current one!). It was a lot of fun and might be known around FF-fandom circles as the best Meme ever**.

Pretty much everyone I know is stressed about something, too, so this round of the

FFVIII: SEIFER/XU (OR I CANNOT RESIST THIS PAIRING IT IS LIKE CRACK. SWEET SWEET CRACK.)

[irish_ais]

The first thing that Xu does when Seifer walks through the front gates of Balamb Garden is punch him in the face. It doesn't matter that he hasn't been back since the war ended, nearly six months ago, and it certainly doesn't matter that he's completely unarmed; she hits him, hard, his head snapping to the right with the force of the blow.

Well, she's certainly not let up on the strength training while he's been gone.

"You asshole!" she screams, seizing him by the lapels of his tattered coat and shaking him like he's a dog. "You unbelievable, impossible, selfish, egotistical bastard!"

He endures it--hell, he deserves it, but when she starts yelling at him in a language that he doesn't know, Seifer's had enough. He cuts off her verbal assault in the only way that's guaranteed to work, kissing her thoroughly until her hold's barely relaxed on his coat.

"It's nice to see you, too," he says, when she finally breaks away, and Xu hits him again.

And that, he definitely deserves.

It is very much like crack. This one makes me want to know the back-story. It is tantalizing in its hints. I enjoy the way this one is told through Seifer's perspective subtly. I like his casual observations of the unfairness of her hitting him and also his admiration of her strength simultaneously.

This one spawned meta! Lots of it! Oh god, I will be writing Seifer/Xu until the end of time.

...that 'are' in 'in this case, that is so far from the truth that they are even on the same continent,' is supposed to be an 'aren't'. I WIN AT THIS MISSPELLING GAME!

FFVIII: Seifer/Rinoa

[fiorieart]

Rinoa sighs loudly, rolling over on her side and adjusting her bikini strap. Her beach towel is covered with sand, and as she watches Seifer sleeping next to her, one arm flung over his face to shield it from the sun, she's tempted to stand up and shake it all over him. Anything to get him to wake up already

I accidentally deleted my own entry in my excitement to write Seifer/Rinoa. D:

But I'm glad you like it! :)

FFX: Jecht/Tidus' mom

[xerne]

"Hey, Jecht?"

"Mrf," he answered into the pillow.

She shook him harder. "Jecht. Get up."

"What the hell? What is it?" he said, pushing himself up on the bed.

She was sitting beside him, looking at a little white strip. "I'm pregnant."

Jecht took a long minute to reply. She wondered if he was still drunk from the night before.

"I guess we'll have to get married, then," he said finally.

"You mean it?"

"Sure, why not?" It wasn't quite the romantic proposal she'd hoped for, but she was thrilled enough to lean over and kiss him, letting the paper strip fall to the floor.

Glad you enjoyed it, I like writing Jecht. XD

...which makes me laugh even more, because when my parents got engaged, it went like this:

[scene: 3am at Dad's house]
Dad: ...so maybe we should get married.
Mum: ...are you shitting me???
