  1. Summary

    Tagging this was tricky but to clarify, this is not a modern *AU* but a fully post-canon setting with the XC3 characters in high school. It's not really about the plot of the games but references will be made to everything - 1, 2, 3, and all DLC expansion campaigns.

    Witness the XC3 characters dealing with traditional high school/teenage dramatics rather than world-ending threats. They've earned it.

  2. Summary

    New Class VII focused fics. All the stories are related to the formation of their polycule (sans Altina). But they are teenagers and it's complicated.

    very slightly AU as the first fic was written before Reverie. everything else is "canon compliant" post-canon.

  3. Summary

    Trails AU fics. Separate stories that are connected by the same macguffin/frame artifact. I have listed them in chronological order, but each fic is separate.

  4. Summary

    XC3 stories of varying length, taking place during the events of the game. Sometimes canon compliant and sometimes not. They don't share continuity but my personal takes on these characters will likely be consistent from one to the other.

  5. Summary

    Stories that take place after the end of the game in one version of a post-canon rejoined universe. Loosely shared continuity. Fics written before Future Redeemed are obviously non-canon in places. I will incorporate FR elements in later stories as relevant.

    The main emphasis is characters grappling with their memories of their time on Aionis, and what it means for their current selves.

    Summary

    With Gladio’s attention on what’s left of the wasps and mandrakes, slicing through them with reckless abandon, Prompto leaves his cover, guns down a second mandrake, takes off at a run for Noct.

    He’s only a few feet away when a shadow leaps down on him from above.

    The ground beneath his feet erupts. His body is flung forwards, SMG falling from his hands. He flips over, lands on his back roughly, grunting as he does, his ribs screaming out in protest. He struggles for breath, writhes in agony. Above, there’s a flash of silver in the orange light; a blade, heading right for his face. With a yelp, he rolls over, scrambles away, fingers digging into the mud for purchase. He risks looking up and pales.

    Iggy raises his spear and attacks.

    or: whilst traversing the Malmalam Thicket, Ignis gets a little bit... confused.

    Summary

    No one else is looking at the screen when the newscaster announces the discovery of facilities in Niflheim before the screen is filled with the image of a hundred identical people walking tentatively out into the sunlight.
    Noctis huffs behind him, mutters, “It’s always Niflheim.”
    Gods,” Prompto whispers before he can stop himself. His voice is rough, almost wet—he doesn’t understand what’s going on.
    Prompto doesn’t know if it’s what he says, or maybe something on the television finally catches the attention of his boyfriends but all at once, they react too. Gladio swears, two then three times in a row, and Prompto gets it, wishing he was less frozen, so he could join in too.

    Alternatively: Prompto finds out he’s a clone at the exact same moment as the rest of the world.

    Summary

    Ignis pulls a whistling kettle off of the stove. Noctis twitches at his side, a threadbare sock tickling his thigh under a heavy knit blanket. Gladio must be nearby, too; Prompto can hear the deep rumble of his voice, sending a shiver down his spine unbidden.
    Maybe there’s no one here at all.
    He’s lying still enough to be dead, he thinks.
    At least he can hardly feel the cold anymore.

    Prompto can take care of himself. He's mastered the art of it in the years he's spent on his own, carefully weaving a delicate veil of explanations for the prince and his entourage.

    He can juggle his classes, his work, and the endless piles of bills in the entryway. He can get by on the meager scraps left for groceries when rent is due.

    At least until a frozen pipe and an ever observant advisor make it impossible to keep up the farce.

    Summary

    Prompto was sitting on a concrete barrier nearby, cleaning his camera lens. He looked up as Noctis approached. "Got what we need?" he said, tone neutral.

    Noctis shrugged, puzzled. "No luck. Shop's closed." He looked back over his shoulder. "Apparently some kid robbed them blind just a while ago. They're still sorting things out."

    Prompto tapped his foot, ducking and adjusting a dial. "Huh. That's weird. It was open when I went yesterday," he said.

    (The bros, unbeknownst to Noct, sometimes have to do some less-than-wholesome things for his sake. Kinkmeme fill, complete.)

    Summary

    One Thief’s struggle to take it easy - Ren takes Goro on a tour of Tokyo the day before everything ends. Extremely inspired by Ferris Bueller’s Day Off.

    “Oh, Akechi,” Joker says, smiling like a nightmare, “the question isn’t what are we going to do. The question is what aren’t we going to do.”
