Generative AI has made visual storytelling widely accessible, yet current prompt-based interactions often force users into a trade-off between precise control and creative flow. We present One Kiss, a co-creative comic generation system that introduces "Affective Steering". Instead of writing text prompts, users guide the tone of their story through emoji inputs, whose semantic ambiguity becomes a resource rather than a limitation. Unlike traditional text-to-image tools that rely on explicit descriptions, One Kiss uses a dual-stream input in which users define structural pacing by sketching panel frames and set atmospheric tone by pairing keywords with emojis. This mechanism enables "Genre Flux," where emotional inputs accumulate across panels and gradually shift the genre of a story. A preliminary study (N = 6) suggests that this soft steering approach may reframe the user's role from prompt engineer to narrative director, with ambiguity serving as a source of creative surprise rather than a loss of control.
