Summary
It took six months for Violet to realize Arthur was actually dating her. That they were a couple - that he was completely smitten with her and trying his damnedest to get her to notice that he wasn’t just being nice, he was actively pursuing her in hopes that she felt the same. She didn’t seem to understand his advances and even though it was adorable, Sol, was it frustrating. But he could tell she felt something because the way her glowing ruby eyes lit up when he was around melted his damaged heart and made him ache.

Summary
Because Eternalism, there's at least one reality where Violet is Vermillion, a male drifter with not a spot of red on him -- all green from being stuck in the envy spiral and named by his counterpart Emerald (Emmy). 'Mill realizes later and laughs that his name is actually a shade of red which meant Emmy probably meant it as a joke. The irony is not lost on him.
A series of What If pieces of Vermillion - 'Mill - Marty/Drifter and Arthur Nightingale.

Summary
“Lost in your own head again, Marty?” Arthur broke his concentration, and he shook his head looking up at the Excalibur protoframe with a heavy sigh. Funny thing, he liked Marty more than Vermillion - but only when this man called him that. To everyone else he was ‘Mill --but to Arthur, Marty made him feel this tingly sensation in his chest.
Arthur Nightingale, sure their relationship started out tumultuous - an exalted blade through the hand - yet, to be fair, if someone had invaded his mind he’d be sore about it, too.
Vermillion blew out a long breath and stretched, standing to meet Arthur’s gaze, those deep green, glowing eyes meeting his."

Summary
"The dark waves are seething and gurgling, licking the caramel sand like a thirsty animal laps up the water by the stream; and they whisper words of wisdom in their mysterious oceanic language few can understand. They spew well-polished stones and pieces of colorful glass onto the shore, underwater treasures tangled in a mess of rotting seaweed. But among the usual aquatic gifts, there’s one in particular that differs from other inanimate objects; it is a body of a young man, pale skin shining under the bright moon light with an almost otherworldly glow."
Verso Dessendre finds himself laying on the familiar shore, water in his lungs and a ringing silence in his head. How did he end up in the Canvas again, and why does it look so different from what he painted years ago, as a child?

Summary
Monoco’s station was just as it had always been, Gommage or no. The painted curves of it flowed and trailed, one long brush stroke after another. The snow stayed, and so did the grandis, the gentle petals of iron, the curve of playful trains.
Only Monoco had left. Only they had changed. And then they’d returned, and for what? To scavenge the chroma of corpses long gone to rest? To scrape the paint from a hundred abandoned creations?
Verso was tired.
“Yes,” he said, “I could have saved him.”
Or: Maelle brings Gustave back, and accidentally ties his soul to Verso. This changes things.

Feu sur ma peau (DISCONTINUED) by Araushnee
Fandoms: Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (Video Game)

Summary
Gustave sits at the cliffside with Maelle tucked to his side. He’s writing— because of course he is. Writing was the gift he had been born with. Stories came to him as easily as breath to his lungs. Use of words had been forged into his very soul even when he was denied so. Even now, while he does not remember.
Verso never understood it, though perhaps his kind were never meant to — creating worlds with lavish vocabulary over the graceful stroke of a brush — and yet he never found them any less beautiful when written by him.
In another life, Verso — the true Verso — had risked everything for those pretty words, in another world where the blending of art and literature was forced apart, made forbidden and long thought impossible.
In this life — or unlife, perhaps — he can only stare at both parts of his heart with a hollowed soul and memories of fire upon his skin.
(In which Gustave lives, and Verso’s Canvas harbors one more grief-stricken soul.)
9/25/2025 - DISCONTINUED. Left the fandom. No motivation to write this any longer. Do not read if expecting it to update.

Summary
“Get off of me,” Blue hisses out. “What is wrong with—?”
Arthur presses impossibly closer—he smells like blood and gunpowder and Efervon. The part of Blue’s brain that is ruled purely by the fight-or-flight stress response that carried her through the grueling death march of Duviri is spiraling at his proximity—Thrax Centurions were always a longsword away, and the Archons were slayed with a bow. She’s unrehearsed for such close quarters—can’t remember the last time someone touched her this long, this intentionally, without killing her. His skin burns where it touches hers.
“What’s wrong with me,” says Arthur, in a voice that seems too quiet for how much anger it holds, “is I’ve either finally fucking snapped, or you are a Sol-damned liar.” He shakes Blue’s hold on his wrist free and pins the offending hand to the wall so quickly Blue doesn’t even have time to fight him. “So, which is it, Drifter?”
Or:
The Drifter keeps looping through 1999 with the Hex, but only Arthur remembers they’ve done this before. AU.
