Summary
It starts with a sparring match. The ring of metal on metal, the pounding of her blood in her ears and sweat stinging her eyes, mud on her knees. It starts with the two of them, breathless and flushed, tucked away in a secluded corner of the Grove, wondering when a sparring match became something else.
Or: Aloy experiences a sexual awakening, Kotallo offers therapeutic sparring, Erend earns his "World's Best Big Brother" badge, and Beta discovers an old-world musical tradition called "AC/DC".

Summary
When Kotallo lost his arm, it was more than just a limb that he had lost. It was his prowess with a bow. It was his utility as a Marshal. His arm was gone, his life a ruin, and nothing would ever be the same.
It did not occur to him that this could be a good thing.
It did not occur to him that he could find new purpose in his life. It did not occur to him that an outlander with hair like blood and a spirit as fierce as blazefire would help him find that purpose.
With Aloy as his witness, Kotallo would find himself again, and nothing would ever be the same.
********************
In other words: a wish fulfillment fic where Aloy and Kotallo fall in love over the course of the game. Canon scenes and dialogue blended and padded out with introspection, cozy conversations, smut, and all the GAIA Gang bonding that we deserved. ❤Series

Summary
The tides of war can change in an instant, but what about the heart? An Aloy/Kotallo story. Slowwwww burn. Kotallo doesn't understand the Nora girl when he first meets her, but when she sees him for him instead of what he's missing following the Embassy, he begins to understand that an honorable death isn't the only thing worth living for.
