    Summary

    Kaveh sighs again, and this time his features knit together and he squeezes his eyes shut. “Can you stop being clinical for two minutes and hear what I’m actually asking you?”

    “I am listening.” It’s true. “And I do understand.”

    “Do you, now?”

    “I do.”

    Kaveh pinches the bridge of his nose. The frustration there isn’t feigned or overblown—it’s real, deep in the lines of his face and the tension drawing his shoulders. “I’d want you to be here,” he says again, but quieter.

    “I will be here,” Alhaitham answers. “And it’ll be with the cure.”

    When an expedition gone wrong leaves Kaveh with three days to live, Alhaitham and Cyno fight to find the cure while Tighnari fights to buy them time.

    Sometimes it does take a village.

    Summary

    Ferdinand was a general. In theory. Edelgard had promised him continued command of his battalion, and a general needed a certain measure of wealth to supply his horses, his servants, his armor and rations and lodgings and, she’d promised.

    But his father sat rotting in a cell, or worse, and it could be nothing more than a fable they thought him simple enough to believe. What did promises matter?


    When the house of Aegir collapses around him, Ferdinand struggles to forge a path forward. He quickly discovers he can't manage it alone -- and neither, perhaps, can Edelgard.

    Summary

    "I guess we are sort of stuck together now, aren't we? I hate to say it, but we'll need to learn to get along better if we're fighting on the same side."

     

    After re-emerging as Emblems in a single Bracelet, Claude figures that he, Edelgard and Dimitri will need to learn to get along better. He'd anticipated 'getting along better' would mean learning joint strategies, or compromising on who would participate in what battles and when.

    He had not anticipated that sharing an Emblem Bracelet would also mean sharing their memories and their tragedies, and that makes things a lot more difficult.

    Summary

    After a whole year of being missing and presumed dead by suicide, one day Miles Edgeworth quite literally just walks back into Phoenix's life. Understandably, Phoenix has quite an emotional reaction to this.

    OR

    I was deeply unsatisfied with how nonchalant Miles's return and Phoenix's reaction were in canon, so I rewrote the whole scene :') The first few lines of dialogue are lifted straight from the game script, with some slight tweaking on my part.

    Summary

    “I don’t know, Polly,” Trucy says at last. “On one hand… she’s my mom. She’s our mom. I’ve missed her since I was very little. And I know she had no idea we existed for the longest time. But…”

    “But she knew, and she waited so long to tell us,” Apollo finished. “She made Mr. Wright keep her secret, too.”

    “Yeah,” Trucy sighs. “Polly, I… I want to know her. Daddy- My old Daddy, that is- and Uncle Valant told me such amazing stories about her. I’ve dreamed of knowing her most of my life. And she was so nice when we met her as Lamiroir… but it hurts.”

    “Betrayal hurts,” Apollo echoes. “When someone keeps a big secret from you, it… it hurts.”
    --
    The day Thalassa Gramarye finally decides to break her silence, and the fallout that follows.

    Summary

    The Hollow Knight was never intended to live.
    The Hollow Knight had never been given the chance to live.
    -
    Hornet doesn't know how to be a caretaker. Hallownest doesn't remember how to be a kingdom. The higher beings left in its dying territory don't know what to expect of the god in the Abyss.
    And through it all, a vessel that wished to be pure now doesn't know what they should be wishing for in a world that changed so much while they were contained.
