They are his legacy – his true one, stripped of all the heroics and stories of gods and destinies – and are as vital a part of his journey as Ignis’ penned recipes, Gladio’s books with annotation-filled margins, or Prompto’s stacks of photographs.

A perfect afternoon at a forgotten pool.


Notes:

Happy 2nd anniversary everyone!! I cannot imagine my life without ffxv and this fandom, it’s what got me back into writing and through it I’ve met some of my closest friends. This game has had such an impact on us all and I wanted to capture as much of those feelings in this piece. It’s possibly my favorite thing I’ve written thus far. I really hope you like it!

Enjoy~

shiro is a real estate agent with a problem. a ghost problem.


The trick to getting blood out of carpets is a fresh bottle of club soda, a generous sprinkling of salt, and patience. Failing that, some diluted ammonia will usually do the trick. Right now, though, Shiro thinks that the only solution to deal with it would be to tear the carpets out altogether and lay plastic down over the bare concrete floor until he can call an exorcist. A career change, he thinks to himself as he scrubs the high pile with a stiff brush, might be in order if he can ever make this sale.

Be that as it may, the blood isn’t going to handle itself.

Shiro blows a stray lock of hair out of his eyes as he kneels back on his knees, blotting over the stain with a clean towel. A loud bang from upstairs rattles the chandelier, unsettling some dust bunnies from among the delicate crystals. It’s a testament to how numb he’s become to all of these sorts of events that Shiro doesn’t even flinch. He picks up the scrub brush and gets back to work.

Fic rec for @pillarspromptsweekly [B21] and a comment on a fic you read a while ago [O10]

I think this was the very first fic I read for this fandom, back in June, when I searched AO3 for stories featuring death godlike Watchers. It features a sweet Watcher who’s unused to—and bewildered by—physical contact due to his godlike nature. It really got me thinking about my own death godlike Watcher, and it encouraged me to start writing about her. This fic also features a hefty dose of Aloth jealousy and pining, for fans of that~

When the Watcher accompanied him to Ondra’s Gift to port, Aloth
felt the words unsaid like an endless chasm between them. In spite of it
all – every moment of death defied, every footstep of the Leaden Key
tread between them, and every kind word – and they all rose up like a
tidal wave, crashing against his chest. The salty winds of Late Spring
upon the sea whipped his cloak and tossed the Watcher’s smoke adrift,
and Aloth nearly broke his –

“Fye, all this carry’n oan, when ye could jist -”

Heart in his throat, Aloth shut his mouth with a snap and
reached out over the chasm, pale fingers a-tremble with embarrassment as
he took the Watcher’s hand in his.

“Thank you. Again. For everything.”

Instead of allowing Shamus Kelley to get undeserved exposure by promoting his queerbait-y articles, here is an excellent article about actual representation in Voltron.

All In A Day’s Trade is now up on AO3!

This fic is intended as a short insight into the mind of the one and only Dino Ghiranze, very early on in the timeline of FFXV.

This work was originally created for Compendium: A FFXV Charity Zine. This zine was
to raise money for Cancer Research UK, and focuses on the various
characters in the world of FFXV, with writers and artists from around
the UK contributing. Copies of the zine are available to buy here:

Bagginshield Summer Adventure – Fic Rec

I’d like to thank all participants of the Bagginshield Summer Adventure once more for joining! Since some fics have already been published, I decided that it’s time for a fic rec 🙂 I’ll keep updating it, so make sure to have another look at it soon 😉

And now to the fics!

Let’s go on an unexpected walking holiday in @mandysimo13Hiraeth

Join Bilbo and Thorin on their way into the holiday – despite fear of flying! – in @aquilea-of-the-lonely-mountains Pareidolia

Then it’s time for a walk on the beach that will bring back some memories in @tea-blitzs The Sands of Time on the Beach of Eternity

And if we’re already there, how about collecting sea shells like in @anironsidhs Day at the Beach

A holiday is also a good chance to buy some souvenirs, like @rutobuka shows us in this piece of art …

Of course there are enough possibilities for adventures back at home, like at the market – as @emsiecat shows us in Market

… and there’ll be more adventures to come 🙂
