| 12 | ->''"Someday, I'll catch him, then I'll be the one kissing HIM triumpthantly!"'' |
| 13 | -->-- '''Bud Buckwald''', on his arch-enemy El Coyote, ''WesternAnimation/{{Bordertown}}'' |
| 14 | |
| 15 | |
| 16 | So, you've got your enemy on the ropes (literally or figuratively) and you feel the need to really rub it in that you've won. Or, your enemy's got you on the ropes and it's time for desperate measures to turn things round. What should you do? In fiction, one option is the "Take That!" Kiss. (Website/TVTropes makes no guarantees for how well this works in RealLife, so DontTryThisAtHome -- or at least, don't come crying to us if you do and it fails or backfires.) |
| 17 | |
| 18 | Whereas the "Take That!" Kiss is sometimes the most blatant expression of FoeRomanceSubtext, it also can be the ''only'' thing in the characters' exchanges that suggests romantic interest at all. It will typically be more of a taunting/patronizing/desperate/tricksterish/arrogant domination display than a romantic/sexy come-on--though it's quite often played as an ironic version of a come-on, or possibly some kind of complicated double-bluff. |
| 19 | |
| 20 | For related reasons, it's usually not a ShutUpKiss, at least of the core variety that leads to two characters finally getting together, if only for a while, and no slapping need be involved, [[SlapSlapKiss before]] or [[KissKissSlap after]]. If there is {{UST}} or BelligerentSexualTension though, expect this trope to feature somewhere, at least as long as one of the parties is GenreSavvy enough to pick up on it. |
| 21 | |
| 22 | The idea isn't ''necessarily'' specifically to mock or antagonize, though. It usually seems more like a non-verbal TakeThat, though not always aggressive or hostile, and can be more of an affectionate sending-up or one-upping. |
| 23 | |
| 24 | In effect, the "message" can range from "Try anything else, and I'll pull the plug on your career as well as make fun of you in public," (the ''Series/{{Riget}}'' example, below) through "I'm not going to let your hostility stop my aggravating exuberance," (WesternAnimation/BugsBunny, WesternAnimation/WoodyWoodpecker) to "So you just told a memorable fable about the problem of evil that explicitly challenges all I'm thought to stand for, and now you're expecting a counter-argument? Well, actually, I'm just going to do something ambiguous and non-verbal that will nonplus you and everybody else," (''Literature/TheBrothersKaramazov''). |
| 25 | |
| 26 | Though this is most commonly pulled by villain(ish) characters, it can also be done by a Designated Hero, or (as in the ''Film/{{Heathers}}'' and ''Series/{{Riget}}'' examples) by characters whose morality tends to the ambiguous. Examples of full-on good characters doing this are more rare--but see ''Literature/TheBrothersKaramazov'' examples. |
| 27 | |
| 28 | If that all seems a lot to read into an ambiguous and often completely non-verbal act, that hopefully just proves the point, but feel free to intone BellisariosMaxim if desired. |
| 29 | |
| 30 | A common variant is for a character to kiss someone as a TakeThat to some third party. The message here is typically, "No, I'm not into you, and I'll prove it by randomly kissing whoever happens to be available because I'd rather have anyone else but you." Alternately, it could be part of an OperationJealousy, sending the message "If you don't make your move, you'll have to watch me mack on some other lucky bastard", or "You better make your move on them before someone like me takes them". |
| 31 | |
| 32 | Blowing kisses can be a way of achieving a similar, if milder, mocking effect at a safe(r) distance. Compare TermsOfEndangerment and ForcefulKiss. |
| 33 | |
| 34 | See also the more metaphorical type of KissOfDeath, which is rather stronger than just saying TakeThat. Also compare and contrast KissOfDistraction, where the intent is not to taunt but to confuse. |

| 37 | !!Examples: |
| 38 | [[foldercontrol]] |
| 39 | |
| 40 | [[folder:Anime & Manga]] |
| 41 | * ''Manga/{{Berserk}}'': |
| 42 | ** [[spoiler:Griffith/Femto]] gives [[spoiler:Casca]] a ForcefulKiss just before [[spoiler:brutally raping her.]] Normally, it would be whether a kiss in the process of [[spoiler:a rape]] counts as this trope, but since the only point of this horrific KickTheDog moment was to spite [[spoiler:Casca and Guts]] before killing them, you could read the whole ordeal as a particularly evil TakeThat. He also tongue kisses her [[spoiler:while raping her from behind.]] |
| 43 | ** When Guts fights Slan at Qliphoth, after a long and vicious battle, which included getting molested by her, he finally manages to [[ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice impale her with his sword]], seemingly defeating her. Instead, she lets out a laugh while taking great pleasure in the pain Guts is causing her, and grabs his face and [[ForcefulKiss quickly kisses him]] while calling him wonderful. |
| 44 | * ''Anime/DragonBallZ'': Sort of played with in the aftermath of the first encounter with Androids 17 & 18. After the two wipe the floor with all the Z fighters except for Krillin, 18 goes over to the terrified Krillin and gives him a kiss on the cheek. While it was pretty much a mocking gesture (Krillin was the only one who didn't fight) it was the start of a relationship that would eventually see the two of them marry in the future. |
| 45 | * Nakago to Tamahome in ''Manga/FushigiYuugi''. Yep. You read that right. |
| 46 | ** And that was in reference to the one Nakago previously gave Miaka, too. |
| 47 | * ''Manga/FutureDiary'': |
| 48 | ** Tsubaki Kasugano plants one of these on Yukiteru when she thinks she's defeated him and Yuno. Unfortunately for her, Yuno doesn't like that one bit. |
| 49 | ** Later, [[spoiler: Akise]] gives one to Yukki, partly out of love, partly to piss Yuno off. [[GoneHorriblyRight It worked.]] [[OffWithHisHead Maybe too well]]. |
| 50 | * ''Manga/HanaKimi'': While the school doctor Umeda is lecturing the main character Mizuki's homophobic older brother on why he's being unreasonable towards his sister, he grabs him by the neck tie and kisses him (as the author put it) "Just to piss him off". |
| 51 | * In the manga of ''Manga/{{Hellsing}}'' as well as in ''Ultimate'', Pip repeatedly tries to sneak a kiss from Seras Victoria. Usually to [[AmusingInjuries disastrous]] results. But then, during the siege of Hellsing manor, he's mortally wounded (riddled with shrapnel and run through by a scythe), Seras is horrifically injured (missing her arm and both eyes), and he's able to sneak in one first, and last, kiss before he dies... and then proceeds to bust out laughing that he finally did it, before [[HeroicSacrifice offering his blood to her]] so she could heal up, [[TookALevelInBadass become a full vampire]], and avenge the Wild Geese (as well as just about everyone in London). It was not an insult to Seras but to the certainty of death. |
| 52 | * ''Manga/ItazuraNaKiss'': Naoki kisses Kotoko mostly to get back at her after she publicly humiliated him with his [[EmbarrassingOldPhoto childhood photo]], which she did after he publicly ridiculed her feelings for him. Another reason is that she declared she would give up on him and [[spoiler: he doesn't like to hear that.]] |
| 53 | -->'''Kotoko:''' I'm going to forget you and attend college...\ |
| 54 | '''Naoki:''' Then, go ahead and try. ''(kisses her)'' |
| 55 | * ''Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure'': Done by proxy in the first part, where Dio steals Jonathan's beloved's FirstKiss to get one over on him. It [[InsultBackfire backfires]], as she proceeds to insult him by washing her mouth out with filthy water -- the implication being he's so disgusting she doesn't want to pollute the nearby stream. He snaps, backhands her (which causes his cronies to abandon him in disgust), and ultimately this causes him ''far'' more pain than it does Jonathan. |
| 56 | * ''Anime/MonsterRancher'': In episode 44 "Magical Stone Mayhem", Lilim almost kills Holly and Tiger, steals the magic stone, and almost kills the searchers (by having the army of robots shoot them to death). As she's leaving, Genki grabs on to her legs while she's flying away -- only for her to kick him down. He falls 30 feet only to be saved at the last second. Lilim tells him "Thanks again," blows a flirtatious kiss, and then flies off. Also in the same episode after she steals the magic stone from Holly, she gives it a kiss - so in a way it's kind of a "Take That" kiss by kissing the stone and then mockingly telling Holly "thanks". In the uncut version of episode 45, she betrays General Durahan and kills his crew and collection of monsters. After a hard battle, she ambushes him from behind and steals the magic stone again. Before leaving, she blows him a goodbye kiss. It's safe to say Lilim loves this trope so much she'd probably give it a kiss. |
| 57 | * ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'': The titular character experiences a few of these. |
| 58 | ** One occurred Naruto was having a friendly fight against the (soon to be) fifth Hokage, Tsunade. Although Naruto managed to use his brand new technique, Tsunade almost instantly has him against the ropes. When Naruto awaits an earth-shattering punch, he instead has his efforts rewarded with a kiss on the forehead. |
| 59 | ** [[FillerVillain FÅ«ka]] puts Naruto on the ropes when she shows up in several filler episodes and puts on a [[FauxAffablyEvil faux flirtatious attitude]] with him, constantly flirting with {{Double Entendre}}s. She tries to end their fight numerous times with a KissOfDeath that sucks out his chakra, and she successfully kisses him three times but is always thwarted before she can completely drain him of his chakra. The best example of this though is their second kiss, where after FÅ«ka finally manages to catch Naruto by [[TakenForGranite turning his legs to stone]], she continues to act in a fake loving manner just to taunt how helpless he is, suggesting they kiss and make up before claiming [[YourSoulIsMine she'll take his soul as payment for it]]. With him unable to resist her, she takes a moment to [[NoSenseOfPersonalSpace cuddle]] with him, [[VillainousFaceHold cupping him by the face and chin]] and forcing him to look into her eyes as a mock romantic HeldGaze between them, with him glaring at her in defiance while sweating out of fear of what she will do to him while she smirks smugly and giggles at him, until she finally whispers her technique, leans in slowly with puckered lips and forcibly locks lips with him. |
| 60 | *** Ironically, her first kiss with Naruto is more of ''him'' doing it to ''her''. Naruto tricked her into kissing one of his Shadow Clones, which not only let him survive but since Naruto can share the experience his clone feels he was able to feel what a kiss with FÅ«ka was like, essentially stealing a ''real'' kiss from her, and mockingly blows her a kiss himself while saying it actually [[NotBad wasn't bad]], much to her anger. |
| 61 | * In ''Manga/NegimaMagisterNegiMagi'''s rushed anime, Yue Ayase pulls a fast one in front of Nodoka Miyazaki at the end of the 24th episode. |
| 62 | * ''Anime/{{Noir}}'': In the episode where Mireille and Kirika have to confront "The Intoccabile" -- a woman whom the normally unflappable Mireille has been terrified of since childhood -- the Intoccabile comes and speaks to Mireille herself to rub in the fact that Mireille is powerless against her because of her fear. She backs her into a balcony railing and then forces a kiss on her. Mireille tries to punch her, but the Intoccabile just catches her arm. She leaves unharmed, leaving poor Mireille feeling even more powerless than ever, which of course was the whole idea. |
| 63 | * ''Manga/PeachGirl'': Sae is constantly attempting these on Toji, as a way to one up Momo. |
| 64 | ** As a way to get Sae to back off, Momo grabs Touji and plants a kiss on him in front of Sae, while glaring at Sae and declaring that Touji is hers. |
| 65 | * ''Manga/PrisonSchool'': Hana forcibly takes Kiyoshi's first kiss. It backfires horribly on her. |
| 66 | * ''VisualNovel/SchoolDays'': In the final episode, Makoto and Kotonoha do this in order to stick it to Sekai. Needless to say, things get worse. |
| 67 | * ''Manga/SeraphOfTheEnd'' has a variation, a TakeThat Bite. In chapter 46 Ferid drives up in his car and holds out his hand to Mika and Yuu, with a flirtatious look and teasingly saying "I heard you two were being attacked by a dangerous vampire so I came to your rescue. Come take a ride with me. I'll save you." He plays mind games with Yuu and Mika throughout the chapter, and when Yuu turns into a demon to attack Ferid for [[spoiler: showing them Akane's head]] Ferid tells Mika he's "worried for the poor guy (Yuu)" because he's says Yuu could turn into a full demon. He states he has an antidote to cure Yuu and tells Shinoa "Let us go rescue dear Yuu." Mika is adamant to keep Ferid from getting near Yuu and says "I won't let you have your way with him!" Ferid smiles and says he just wants to help Yuu. Mika says he's not going to let Ferid touch him. Crowley engages Mika in a fight while Ferid states cheerfully [[IHaveYouNowMyPretty "Now precious Yuu is all mine."]] Ferid approaches Yuu and blushes saying "Wow! [[ShesAllGrownUp Haven't you grown]] into the [[{{Bishonen}} cute one!]]! Your demon is on the verge of rampage yet you still have [[WhatBeautifulEyes such clear and beautiful eyes.]] No wonder you are the extra special guinea pig." He then lifts Yuu's face by his chin and gets close saying "Perhaps before I heal you I'll take a little sip of your blood." Yuu asks if there's something in it for him if he allows Ferid to suck his blood. Ferid says he got the curse suppressant from Guren and it's the same one he takes. Yuu demands Ferid tells him everything he knows and Ferid smiles, covers Yuu's mouth with his hand, says "Oh, you ''are'' cute" and bites him while gripping his shoulder and hand. He then "cures" Yuu of his advancing demon curse while holding him close and leaning his head on Yuu's shoulder. This was done purely [[ItAmusedMe because he wanted to]] and to spite Mika, since in the series a vampire's bite is. of the KissOfTheVampire variety. |
| 68 | %%* In the second season of ''Literature/SpiceAndWolf''. |
| 69 | * ''Manga/TokyoGhoul'': After Kaneki and Touka escape Mutsuki who is deranged out of love for Kaneki and screams he'll kill Kaneki and Touka both (Touka because she's in the way and Kaneki because he rejected him for Touka) it leans toward this trope when Touka abruptly pins down Kaneki to kiss him and they proceed to have sex. It certainly felt like Touka wanted to make sure she and Kaneki sealed the deal romantically before Mutsuki could snatch him away and attempt to do the same. Them kissing and having sex is almost like them saying "screw you" in regards to Mutsuki for thinking he could come between them. |
| 70 | * ''Anime/UruseiYatsura'': In episode 113, Benten catches Ran in a leg lock after chasing her through the city. To make her let go, Ran kisses her on the mouth, which royally pisses her off. |
| 71 | [[/folder]] |

| 73 | [[folder:Comic Books]] |
| 74 | * ''ComicBook/AndersonPsiDivision'': After Anderson finds herself living out another person's life but fails to stop Judge Death's ascension to an unstoppable killing machine, he kisses her with his rotting lips before she dies. |
| 75 | * ''ComicBook/TheAvengers'': |
| 76 | ** In ''The Avengers'' #189, ComicBook/{{Hawkeye}} did this to Deathbird after defeating her. This went beyond his usual style, but she was an exceptionally dangerous opponent, and he defeated her by himself, and he hadn't had a fight like that in quite a while, so he was riding on exhilaration. |
| 77 | ** In ''The Avengers'' #222, Hawkeye was on the receiving end of one of these, courtesy of ComicBook/SheHulk. He'd been messing with the newly recruited Avenger for a while now, and She-Hulk's response to his latest jabs was to forcibly pick him up, kiss him, and drop him on his ass. Even Clint admitted she's won that round. |
| 78 | * ''ComicBook/{{Batgirl}}'': One issue of ''ComicBook/Batgirl2000'' had Cassandra Cain do this to her father David after he had slapped her and in response, she attacked and pinned him, she then planted one on him to show she had bested him leaving a kiss mark made from her blood on his mouth. |
| 79 | * ''ComicBook/BirdsOfPrey'': ComicBook/BlackCanary did this to ComicBook/{{Batman}} in issue #90 to the amazement of her teammates. |
| 80 | -->'''Canary:''' It was like kissing Dracula but with less tongue. |
| 81 | * ''ComicBook/LoveAndRockets'': Maggie plants a Take That Kiss on Viv after an argument between them, partly over their rivalry over Ray. Viv [[StupidSexyFlanders gets into it]] for a few seconds before punching Maggie. |
| 82 | * ''Comicbook/{{Lucifer}}'': Mazikeen, having just saved the CouncilOfAngels' bacon and ''still'' getting grief from them for being a) female and b) a demon, enlists a human [[LesYay admirer]] for a Take That Kiss: |
| 83 | -->[[spoiler:Beatrice]], I need your help in one more thing. Passion is blasphemy in this holy place. [{{Beat}}] And I have a powerful need to blaspheme. |
| 84 | * ''ComicBook/{{Spawn}}'': In issue #97 after Angela provokes Spawn he prepares to attack her only for her to kiss him, he asks why she did that, she replies because it was the last thing he'd expect from her. |
| 85 | * ''ComicBook/SpiderMan'': |
| 86 | ** In ''ComicBook/TheAmazingSpiderMan1963'' #392, Shriek did this to Spider-Man on one occasion after she beat him up and then sucked out his energy. |
| 87 | ** In ''ComicBook/TheSpectacularSpiderMan'', Queen [[VillainessesWantHeroes wanted Spider-Man as her mate]] and after defeating him, caught him in a hug and flirted with him saying he shouldn't feel bad for losing to her because he could have never beaten her before forcing a big wet kiss on him. She kissed him again while she had him captive and didn't take his resistance well. [[spoiler:It turns out her kiss was slowly mutating him into a giant spider, which she would have full control of and he would serve as her egg sac to give birth to her offsprings.]] |
| 88 | * ''ComicBook/UltimateMarvel'': In ''ComicBook/AllNewUltimates'', Diamondback gave one to [[Characters/MarvelComicsMilesMorales Miles Morales]]. There was a RunningGag later with the constant references to that kiss. |
| 89 | * ''ComicBook/XMen'': [[Characters/MarvelComicsBeast Beast]], [[Characters/MarvelComicsNightcrawler Nightcrawler]], and [[Characters/MarvelComicsRogue Rogue]] have all been known to kiss people in the midst of combat. In Rogue's case, this is a method of attack, since [[BrownNoteBeing her touch drains the victim]], but since ''any'' skin to skin contact works, using a kiss is just her being cheeky about it. |
| 90 | * ''ComicBook/YoungAvengers'': Hulkling once dealt with a bigot spouting biblical quotes about the evils of sodomy by kissing him. |

| 102 | * ''Fanfic/CheerileesGarden'' contains two instances of this in its third chapter, both performed on Twilight by Cheerilee: the first, during the conversation between the two before Cheerilee begins torturing Twilight to death, and the second during Twilight's final moments (during which Cheerilee becomes more and more passionate as she feels her victim's life slipping away; for added disturbance value, it's even implied that [[{{Squick}} Twilight's death gives her an orgasm]]). |
| 103 | * ''Fanfic/DanganronpaInHarmonysWake'': In the fourth trial, Monoponi "congratulates" Diamond Tiara for making a correct assumption about the smoke detectors by [[NoSenseOfPersonalSpace cupping her cheeks]] and telling her he could kiss her. The thought of this causes Diamond Tiara to [[VomitDiscretionShot vomit behind her podium]] at the idea, and several of the other passengers are also disgusted at the thought. Monoponi just laughs at this reaction though, this clearly being what he wanted. This gets a CallBack in the final trial when, [[spoiler:the Mastermind, Cozy Glow, mockingly says she thought she and Diamond Tiara were getting along. She then reminds her that they never got to kiss, and mockingly flirts with her, asking her if she wants to "make up for lost time" before puckering up and making kissing noises at her. Diamond Tara just covers her mouth to stop from throwing up again and begs her no, to which Cozy just shrugs and says it is Tiara's loss]]. |
| 104 | * ''Fanfic/DownAndOut'': When Grace jokes that Simon must have had a crush on her while destroying his novel, he admits he once was in love with her. The confession is bitter for the both of them, and Grace decides to kiss Simon not out of love or passion, but as a cruel reminder that they've lost the chance for that sort of relationship. |
| 105 | * In ''Fanfic/DumbledoresArmyAndTheYearOfDarkness'', Neville [[HoYay kisses Draco]] to humiliate him. |
| 106 | ** Similarly, in another Potter fanfiction, While Draco is taunting Harry for being predictable and a wimp, Harry kisses him in a combination of a ShutUpKiss and Take That Kiss to, what else? Shut him up and piss him off. |
| 107 | * ''Fanfic/TheFlashSentryChronicles'': [[spoiler:Sunset forces a deep kiss on Flash, stunning him.

He reveals this by removing his rubber lips as Ivy stares in [[OhCrap horror]], realizing the sidekick she had been seducing had [[OutGambitted managed to outsmart her and steal a kiss from her]].]] |

| 133 | ** In ''Film/BladeRunner2049'' Luv also gives one to K [[spoiler: after mortally wounding him in a fight]]. This serves as a dark reflection when earlier in the film Wallace kisses a new replicant shortly before he murders her. |
| 134 | * Chase plants one on Caleb in ''Film/TheCovenant'' for a rarer male on male example. Considering the most memorable moments in the movie consist of HoYay, FoeRomanceSubtext and boys in too small speedos, it's not really surprising. |
| 135 | * {{Subverted|Trope}} in ''Film/Daredevil2003''. [[spoiler:As he is about to gut her with her own sai, Bullseye attempts to give Elektra a kiss before doing so. She keeps pushing him and moving him away and as soon as he's close enough to do so, he instead guts her. It follows through in the Director's Cut, while she's in the air with the sai in her gut, Bullseye delightfully succeeds in giving her a kiss.]] |

| 138 | * ''Film/{{Gladiator}}'': Either to emphasize [[FoeRomanceSubtext the twisted sexual tension]] between the two characters or the villain's [[DepravedBisexual depravity]], Commodus plants one on Maximus [[spoiler: while stabbing him in the side]] right before the big BossBattle in the Colosseum. |

| 151 | '''Zorro:''' Not bad at all. ''(plants a kiss on Elena's mouth)'' |
| 152 | * In ''Film/{{Monte Carlo|1930}},'' after the countess rejects Rudolph[[note]](he's a nobleman disguised as a hairdresser, and she's embarrassed to have fallen in love with a servant)[[/note]], he puts on his hairdresser's coat, kisses her passionately, picks her up and dumps her on a chaise longue, and stalks out. |
| 153 | * In ''Film/RememberTheTitans'', [[AmbiguouslyGay Sunshine]] thanks Bertier for his homophobic remarks by giving him a big smooch in front of the entire team. ''In the changing room/showers'' to boot. And then, when Bertier tried to plant a fist in Sunshine's face, the latter not only held his own, but managed to knock the All American on his butt. |
| 154 | * In the 2001 TV movie ''Literature/SnowWhite: The Fairest of Them All'', we get this unforgettable exchange between Creator/MirandaRichardson and Creator/KristinKreuk: |
| 155 | -->'''Queen:''' Mirror, mirror in my hand, who's the fairest...\ |
| 156 | ''(Snow White's head comes out of the mirror and quickly kisses the stunned queen on the mouth)''\ |
| 157 | '''Snow White:''' I am! I am! I am the fairest! |
| 158 | * Leia kisses Luke in ''[[Film/TheEmpireStrikesBack Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back]]'' to spite Han during an argument. Became ''much'' HarsherInHindsight when ''Film/ReturnOfTheJedi'' revealed that they were siblings. In Leia's defense, neither of them had known that at the time. |
| 159 | * ''Film/TalladegaNightsTheBalladOfRickyBobby'': When (homosexual) Jean Girard bests Ricky Bobby in a bar fight, he taunts him saying that he'll go home to France right away if Ricky will just give him a kiss. Of course Ricky declines. But at the end, after beating Jean at Talladega, Ricky plants a big smooch on him, in some combination of this and WorthyOpponent. |
| 160 | * Nefertiri to Rameses in ''Film/TheTenCommandments1956''. An unusual example -- she did it to show how much she loves Moses and hates Rameses. "Did you think that was a promise of what you will have? No -- that was to show you what you will never have..." |
| 161 | * Roger kisses Eddie Valiant in ''Film/WhoFramedRogerRabbit'', after which Eddie exclaims, "Don't ever kiss me again!" At the end, Eddie kisses Roger [[spoiler:to show that he hasn't quite lost his sense of humor]]. |

| 166 | * The bisexual [[GenderBlenderName Sam]] does this to Shadow in ''Literature/AmericanGods'' as a TakeThat to everyone else in the bar they've gone to--he's getting arrested on trumped-up charges, and she's making it clear to everyone that she's not buying it. |
| 167 | * In book 3 of J.R. Ward's vampiric erotica series The ''Literature/BlackDaggerBrotherhood'', there is a venomous exchange of words between HandicappedBadass, Phury, and another male vampire called [[{{Irony}} the]] [[TheAggressiveDrugDealer Reverend]], about the titular brotherhood. The heated back-and-forth at last comes to a head when the Reverend insinuates rather blatantly (and ''very'' derogatorily) that Phury maintains his [[CelibateHero celibacy]] because he is actually gay. Phury responds by [[HoYay planting a kiss on the guy]] that is described as being akin to a "punch between faces." Needless to say, [[YaoiFangirl many readers]] were thrilled at his ironic rebuttal to the accusation. |
| 168 | * ''Literature/BooksOfBayern '': [[spoiler:Selia]] does this to Isi in ''Forest-Born'', "like a girl kissing her favorite doll." |
| 169 | * As indicated above, ''Literature/TheBrothersKaramazov'' has both Christ's kiss to the Great Inquisitor and the kiss Alyosha, inspired by it, plants on Ivan (who responds "That's plagiarism. But thank you.") |
| 170 | * ''Literature/DevilsAndThieves'': Just a day after she and Crowe make-out, Jemmie caught him kissing Katrina at the festival. It was deliberately done right in front of her, and she took it as a harsh rejection of a possible relationship. |
| 171 | * [[Series/DoctorWho The Doctor]] kisses [[SmugSnake Sabbath]] in the ''Literature/EighthDoctorAdventures'' to put him off his guard and humiliate him for stealing the Doctor's [[HeartTrauma heart]]. Admittedly, the Doctor had just [[ItMakesSenseInContext turned into a seal]] at the time, but the whole scene is [[FoeRomanceSubtext filled with subtext]]. |
| 172 | * In ''Literature/{{Holes}}'', this was the outlaw Kissin' Kate Barlow's [[ZorroMark signature]] when she murdered people. |
| 173 | * ''Literature/PercyJacksonAndTheOlympians'': Early in ''The Lightning Thief'', Nancy Bobofit, [[TheBully a bully of Percy's]] overhears he was leaving Yancy Academy and smirks at him, making sarcastic kissing motions with her lips at him to taunt him. |

He arrives slightly late to the party when William De Worde goes to confront his father, and takes the man down with almost no effort, all the while talking about how easy it would be to fall off the wagon (he's a member of the Uberwald Temperance League, and thus is a vampire who has sworn off blood) and cause him no end of misery in the process... then notes that William thinks of him as a good man, and he likes William too much to destroy that image, so he sets him down, gives him a gentle kiss on the forehead, and charges him to make himself scarce before Otto changes his mind. |

| 181 | ** In season 2 there are dueling ones, both directed at third parties: as Leonard ends his date with Leslie, Penny comes back from a date with... some guy, and both of them then proceed to kiss their respective [[RomanticFalseLead alternate partners]] with rather more passion than strictly necessary or actually felt. |
| 182 | ** When Sheldon loses a wrestling match and is pinned down by Penny, Penny and Amy take advantage of his immobility by giving him multiple Take That Kisses all over his face. |
| 183 | ** An interesting case in "The Locomotion Manipulation": [[spoiler:Sheldon is angry at Amy for tricking him into a romantic dinner, and in an attempt at mocking her, kisses her forcefully. However, he apparently finds that kissing is more pleasurable than he thought.]] |

| 188 | ** [[DarkActionGirl Faith]] plants one of these on Buffy's forehead during one of their many showdowns in the episode "[[{{Recap/BuffyTheVampireSlayerS3E17Enemies}} Enemies]]". It was [[HoYay supposed to be on the lips,]] but the [[ExecutiveMeddling network said no]]. |

| 191 | * In "Zugzwang" of ''Series/CriminalMinds'', Maeve's stalker kisses Reid in front of her to prove that she's better than Maeve. |

| 195 | ** [[Recap/DoctorWhoS32E8LetsKillHitler "Let's Kill Hitler"]]: River does this to the Doctor, giving him a peck on the lips as they stand very much in each others' personal space bantering. The fact that it's [[spoiler:poisoned]] only serves to drive home the point. |
| 196 | * ''Series/{{Farscape}}'': |
| 197 | ** In "[[Recap/FarscapeS01E22FamilyTies Family Ties]]", John Crichton plants a kiss on his then-ArchEnemy Crais, when Crais arrives on his spaceship apparently looking to change sides. It's a notable sign of his SanitySlippage. |

He punctuates his statement with a kiss to Carr as he tumbles to the floor in laughter]]. |
| 207 | * ''Series/MurdochMysteries'': The young criminal mastermind James Gillies, who was pinned under Detective William Murdoch towards the end of "Midnight Train to Kingston," passionately kisses the older man on the mouth as a distraction so that he could free himself. There have been hints throughout the series that Gillies is gay, though, so the idea of using intimate physical contact to shock his opponent most likely stemmed from his attraction towards Murdoch, who is TallDarkAndHandsome and very smart. This is James' type, as Robert Perry (his presumed boyfriend in an earlier episode) is also cerebral, calm, good-looking, and has dark hair. |
| 208 | * ''Franchise/PowerRangers'': |
| 209 | ** In ''Series/PowerRangersTurbo'' Episode 28, "The fall of the Phantom", after Divatox has kidnapped Cassie and the Phantom Ranger, she takes the Phantom Ranger's power ruby (which is his life; if he doesn't get it, back he'll die) and gives it a nice, long, passionate kiss, basically telling the Phantom Ranger to kiss his life goodbye. |

(Well, okay, so Krogshøj is just ''one'' of Helmer's nemeses -- the man has a low hostility threshold.) |
| 212 | * ''Series/{{Roots 2016}}'': Chicken George gives one to [[LoveInterest Matilda]] when her preacher father shows up while he courts her. |
| 213 | * In ''Series/ShamelessUS'', after Ian points out that Mickey is too afraid to kiss him. |
| 214 | * In the ''Series/{{Seinfeld}}'' episode "The Kiss Hello" when Kramer tries to foster a better sense of community among the residents of his building by placing everyone's names and pictures in the lobby, the more introverted Jerry blames him for the fact that he's now being greeted by all of their neighbors, often with kisses (a pet peeve of his).

| 218 | --->'''Emily:''' Whatever. Stay here. Don't expect me to care, because I ''don't!''\ |
| 219 | '''Mom:''' It is just for a couple of days, dear, until we get ourself out of this pickle.\ |

| 222 | ''(Emily walks over and kisses the hell out of her girlfriend, then leaves)''\ |
| 223 | '''Mom:''' ''(biting her tongue)'' I-I'm gonna finish emptying the car. |
| 224 | * ''Franchise/{{Stargate|Verse}}'': |
| 225 | ** Sheppard pulls one of these on Teyla in ''Series/StargateAtlantis'' after he wins a sparring match. The fact that he didn't get his ass kicked as usual plus the kiss are clear signs that something is very, very wrong with him. |
| 226 | ** In her first appearance on ''Series/StargateSG1'', Vala beats up Daniel pretty badly and finishes by making out with him, partly out of victory and partly because she was attracted to him. [[SlapSlapKiss Then she headbutts him.]] |
| 227 | * ''Series/{{Supernatural}}'': |
| 228 | ** In the episode [[Recap/SupernaturalS02E22AllHellBreaksLoosePartTwo "All Hell Breaks Loose, Part Two" (S02, Ep22)]], the crossroad demon continues to taunt Dean about losing his brother and his father.

| 230 | --->'''Lilith:''' Your lips are soft. |
| 231 | ** In the episode [[Recap/SupernaturalS06E10CagedHeat "Caged Heat" (S06, Ep10)]], Meg lays a KissOfDistraction on Castiel in order to steal his angel blade. She's very surprised, and swoon-y, when Castiel kisses her back for no reason other than he wants to. |
| 232 | * A rather dark version appears in one season 4 episode of ''Series/TheWire'': Omar Little is [[spoiler:in prison]], and a man tries to assault him with a knife. In response, he disarms the man, pushes him against a wall and kisses his ear, in a display obviously intended to make the man think he is about to be [[PrisonRape raped]]. Instead, Omar opts to just... [[AssShove give him his knife back]], as it were. |

| 246 | * [[Wrestling/StephanieMcMahon Stephanie [=McMahon=]]] once kissed Wrestling/TripleH to embarrass her [[Wrestling/VinceMcMahon father]] for all the...[[ReallyGetsAround people]] [[DirtyOldMan he's]] slept with over the years. Wrestling/TripleH was chosen for a couple of reasons: one, he was the guy who [[HumiliationConga revealed]] her father's misdeeds; two, Hunter and Steph are married in real life, and this was an opportunity for [[FourthWallObserver Triple H]] to murder the FourthWall. (See ReallyGetsAround.) |
| 247 | -->'''Triple H:''' See ya at home-- I meant your brother's a gnome! |
| 248 | ** Stephanie also received [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0UiPdGjDyu8 this]] on more than one occasion from Wrestling/ChrisJericho. |

| 296 | * In ''Literature/YouCouldMakeALife'', when Jake asks David why exactly he hates him so much, David responds by kissing him. According to David's thoughts, he did this because he resented Jake for being a more successful hockey player than him and wanted to prove that Jake wasn't as good a guy as he acted by getting him to act homophobic towards him -- he didn't expect Jake to respond positively to the kiss, much less invite him up to his room to have sex. However, any remotely observant reader can tell that David's claim that he only intended the kiss as a TakeThat to Jake was just a cover-up for his buried attraction to Jake bubbling up to the surface. |

Gambit tracks her down and tries to convince her to come back to the X-Men. They end up in a brief fight when Gambit swipes Rogue's gloves (which she needs to wear to allow her to touch others without harming them). A few pointed jabs and a couple of [[AnguishedDeclarationOfLove anguished declarations]] later, Gambit offers to return her gloves, but then turns her around lightly, places one of the gloves over her mouth and kisses her through the glove, adding, "Who says we can't kiss?" |

| 331 | * ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheCloneWars'': A deleted scene shows Assaj Ventress running her lightsaber into Commander Colt's gut then kisses him. Watch it [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=esbI1HTzRHA here]]. |

| 333 | ** In "[[Recap/SupermanTheAnimatedSeriesS3E11TheDemonReborn The Demon Reborn]]", Talia forces a SadisticChoice on Superman by disabling a train's breaks and blowing up the track it is on, telling him he can either stop her and let it crash or stop the train and let her escape.
