A bit of a slower chapter after the chaos of the castrum. Kris is still... being Kris unfortunately LOL, but slowly, surely, the walls are coming down a bit. He'll probably need a couple pushes to get all the way there, though.

Nothing is that easy.


CWs: minor character "brainwashing" (in-game it's called tempering)

I'm back at this fic again, finally! We're at about halfway through the Bozja storyline, which means that it's time for Castrum Lacus Litore, and all the trauma that comes with that. It's also a long set of cutscenes, so I've made a fair amount of concessions to make this chapter not absurdly long.

(That and, well, with the changes I've been making to the story I have to cut some things anyway lol smile)

CWs: none

Get Your Words Out (GYWO) does a monthly prompt challenge, and this month, you'd get a flower assigned to you and you'd go from there. I ended up getting speedwell, which I struggled with at first, but once I got the other names and saw they're often used in wedding floral arrangements, I knew what I had to do from there :)

Also, don't the twins deserve to be annoying little siblings excited to help? I love them

Tataru is truly the most terrifying person. She doesn't care if you saved the world, you better pull your weight. Kris learned his lesson real quick.

Ah, the middle chapter, where we have to set everything up. With Ultima Thule being such a tightly written area, I didn't want to change much of anything—and I hope anyone who's reading this has finished 6.0, because there will be spoilers, lol.

I used the perspective changes to skip around :)

So, I don't usually write out a whole fic before uploading chapters, but this one is an exception. The end of Endwalker is very, very important (as anyone that's gotten through it should know) and writing into that bit can be very difficult. Anyway, I finished this up, and I hope you enjoy :) It's three chapters, and here's the first, which takes place before the day itself.

It's time for the second Gen-uary Jubilee prompt, and yes, it's another post-EW chapter, technically! This time, we could choose between coworkers or enemies, and I decided coworkers would be more fun.

I mentioned G'raha helping Kris to learn how to aetherically summon a greatsword so he didn't need to carry on around, so I made this one about that, as well as various other bits of Kris's lore that's only been kinda implied. Shame Kris is a bit of an idiot huh

This is my piece for the first Gen-uary Jubilee prompt from #ficwip, siblings or best friends. The boys very much consider the twins their little siblings (regardless of that fleeting crush, lol). Also, this is my chance to push my trans Alisaie agenda. You can't convince me otherwise!!

We're finally pushing more into the Bozja story. Lots of tension overall as Mikoto gets kidnapped... but for a change it's not the boys at each other's throats. Maybe the hurt feelings are cooling down a bit? (If they are they won't admit it)

Poor Cid, honestly, lol. He's gotta deal with two grumpy Viera acting like children towards one another. Anyway, this chapter is more or less to get everyone and everything in place, so I can start getting into the real action soon. :)

An emotional reunion.

Here comes the  a n g s t

Originally, I wrote the actual 'reunion' as a prompt for Vierapril. Some things with the boys have changed since then, and now I have the proper context of the Bozja story (I had forgotten some details at the time). Don't worry though, it's still painful. :,)

It's finally time to start the Bozja fic! This is one of the most important bits for both of my boys, and it is angsty. They have a lot to work through, after all, since Kris went MIA for four years going around doing Warrior of Light stuff. I'm not sure how long this one will be, but we'll be going through the whole Bozja story in the process!

Of note, I've moved the Bozja storyline from post-Shadowbringers to post-Stormblood, and Cid's around more. That's the important canon-bending stuff!
