Summary
“It’s selfish, wanting you both, isn’t it? Tell me I’m being selfish, and I’ll never bother you again.”
The Paintress has been defeated, Lumiere’s dead returned to them, and everything should be back to normal, right? Life, painted or no, is never that simple. Lune finds herself longing for someone she thinks she can’t have.

Summary
Heustienne de Vimaroix is the epitome of a perfect dragoon, right up until the moment she is flung from a dragon's back and into the lair of a band of heretics. Her story ends differently, though, if Lady Iceheart is the one to recover her. Heustienne is torn between new allegiances and her old loyalty to her home; and at the heart of it all, she cannot tear her eyes away from the beauty of the lady of Frost. Things will not end how she thinks they will.
Or, Heavensward gave us two beautiful Elezen ladies that I believe should have met in the story, and by gods I'll make them kiss if I want to.

Summary
The aftermath of one hundred years of suffering would never be easy. But - maybe, just maybe, the two of them would have a chance.
A short, generally super fluffy oneshot ft. domesticity and the inherent beauty in knowing someone's heart. Mild BotW spoilers, no TotK spoilers.

Summary
“I gather I’ve you to thank, by the way. On the subject of saving skins.”
She watched his ears turn an odd shade of pink as he swallowed, clearing his throat. “Well, I-” he muttered, his voice quiet. “I couldn’t leave you to die, could I?”
_
In which Estinien and the Warrior of Light confront feelings long repressed. Two stubborn dragoons, and the end of the world as they know it looms on the horizon. This can only go well, right?

Summary
If she has ice in her heart, then he has nothing but flames, burning bright with vengeance. They should cancel each other out, but instead they are irrevocably drawn to one another.
(A collection of short one-shots surrounding the Estinien x Ysayle pairing. Will probably contain minor alluded spoilers to the FFXIV main story. Continually being added to! Also takes part in the same universe as my other Estinien x Ysayle fic.)Series

Summary
Seyka’s smirk turned devilish. “Well. You could invite me into your room, with its spectacular candle-filled ambiance. We could always test your bed. Learn to relax together.”
Aloy might die. “Really? Just going straight to that, huh?”
--------
A collection of vignettes, where Seyka shows she has hobbies outside of surviving mortal peril, and Aloy was not prepared for her maybe-gf to be SUCH good friends with her friends.
Set post Burning Shores. The epilogue we all deserved.

Summary
The girl’s shoulders hunch again. An expression is battling on her face. Guilt again, and fear, and shame. And then faintly, in the soft turn of her cheek, commiseration. She watches Gustave for a long, sad moment, and then turns to a new page in the notepad. She starts writing something, and then stops, glancing furtively at Gustave before scribbling it out. On a new line she instead writes in big bold letters:
Maelle.
OR
Gustave is the local mechanic of Lumiere, an idyllic coastal village far away from the chaos and conflict of Paris. Struggling with his recent injury and the loss of a good friend, he's not quite prepared when a family moves into the abandoned Manor on the edge of town.
He's definitely not prepared for their children.

Summary
They stay that way for a long time, Catra’s face tucked into Adora’s shoulder, Adora gently cradling Catra’s head. Adora is careful not to hug Catra too hard or make her feel restrained, anticipating the moment that Catra will start to pull away — but Catra doesn’t. She hangs on so tightly it hurts, her claws digging through Adora’s jacket and into her back, latching into her like she did when she was a kitten and didn’t know how much her claws could hurt. Adora tries not to wince, tries not to move a single muscle, worried that if she does the spell will break and Catra will struggle away, appalled at having shown weakness.
But Catra doesn’t let go. And so neither does Adora.

Summary
“We old men must adapt to the times.” Verso thumbs across her cheek, fond and careful. “You’re way ahead, of course. So cutting edge you make them bleed.”
“Gustave gets eye strain from arcane journals. As I have told you,” she teases. “Such things tend to happen with age. You’ll have to grow used to it, now that you’re mortal like the rest of us.”
Age is always a strange topic for them. For everyone in the city. Verso no longer dyes his hair, and silver spills forth with every wash. His beard is salt-and-pepper. Lune longs to join him in that. Visible signs of age fills her with triumph. A satisfying sense of spite, even.

My take on the Maelle ending, and what it might mean to live in such a world.
