Fic For All or FFA is an ongoing pairing-based Buffy crossover challenge on Twisting the Hellmouth. The rules are very simple;
So what is the FFA? It's quite simple really - choose one of the open pairings, write a story featuring said pairing, and when you upload it, select the FFA pairing it features. You may then choose your own pairing for someone else to write. Stories can be any length - drabble to novel, and the featured pairing does not have to be romantic.
In practice there is a long list of pairings for most Buffyverse characters, the latest shown first, which can be searched by character (e.g. Buffy Summers or by entering the name of the possible pairing (e.g. Loki). If a site user posts a story chapter using one of these pairings they can flag it as using an FFA pairing; the pairing is removed from the list of available pairings. The author can then post a pairing of their own (e.g. Xander Harris/Sif), and hope that at some point someone will write the story. Pairings need not necessarily be romantic, the story simply needs to have both characters interacting. A list of completed FFA responses is available on the challenge page, searchable in the same way.
The challenge is not routinely moderated, but stories must follow the normal site rules and can be reported to the site moderators if e.g. the pairing doesn't appear in the story.
