14 Feb 2012 - happy Valentine's day.

Author's Notes:

Serenity - formerly sb1 has a poll up, go and have a look.

Still working from my ipad. I have no formatting of any kind (italics, bold, indenting, centring, autocorrect, em dashes, anything like that). Limited spelling and its mostly US, no grammar whatsoever. Doing my best.

IT IS WITH GREAT PLEASURE THAT WE ANNOUNCE THE WINNERS OF

THE 2011 KRYALLA ORCHID AND STAR OF AIRDRIE'S

ROB/STAR FIRST KISS CONTEST

It was a very close competition and we are so pleased with the amount of entries we received. Some people broke out of their ships to enter, wrote in the fandom for the first time and other went even further: they gathered the courage to post their first stories. All entries were fantastic and which made the decision very difficult.

1st - ilusweets with "A shocking moment of clarity" This piece was chosen for its naturality. Moments in time that could have easily appeared in the show. The description was elegant, the emotion entrancing and the final kiss flowed with everything we love about Robin and Starfire, while oozing romance, it delivered normalcy at the same time. Just delightful.

2nd - Ravy-ruh with "Without her" "Without her" was so full of emotion it was hard not to be affected by it. Loaded with the real possibility of losing her without her ever knowing what Robin felt, the first person technique added a new dimension to it, dragging the reader in to become part of the story. The execution of the description provoked a real kinship with Robin and even though Starfire had no lines, her part in this was just magical.

3rd - menamebephil with "The Unbearable Solemnity of Being (Fifteen)" It was the humor in this one that was a real pleasure. Found at every turn, every line had the element of fun. The acknowledgment of teenagers in love/lust was adorable. Even though it was AU, it still felt like the Titans, which can be a difficult feat. The inclusion of bromance was icing on the cake. The kiss was simple and contained all the awkwardness we remember of our first kisses in high school.

Honorable mentions:

Katergator - "Robin's Favo(u)rite Holiday" For being a good sport and her unofficial entry.

.Faith-o-saurus. - "If I ain't got you" She gets real credit for having a costume party and not having ZombieDick make an appearance, If I ain't got you was a fun read.

TheForceisstrongwiththisone - "Gotham Love" The relationship between Raven and Starfire really shone here, which we adored. Starfire's inner thoughts were perfect and Raven's care was touching. The kiss was nice too.

Serenity - formerly sb1 - "First Kiss" Starfire's unconditional love for her sister continues to burden her and again Robin is there for her, but when she makes a move to leave again, he's not about to make the mistake he made in 'Sisters'. We loved the completeness and emotions of this one shot, and how the pair settled in nicely after a wonderful first kiss.
