Summary
After the defeat of the Absolute, Tav and the Emperor navigate a situationship.
Contains nebulous magnetism, comical circling, gentle bickering, and certainly no development of any feelings whatsoever, as that would be ridiculous.Post-canon, complete. Spoilers through the end of the game and naturally for the Wyrmway questline.

Summary
“Dion. I know the Empire has asked much of you. That it still does. But when all of this is over… you can be whatever you wish to be. Not a Dominant, not an Emperor, not a soldier. Just… you.”
You. Dion’s mouth felt suddenly dry. Who was he, really, without those things? For as long as he could remember, he had built his life around Bahamut’s wings. He had desired that life, grown into it. Perhaps his bones were crooked and he ached with every step, but it was part of it, was it not? What was life without a little pain?
“When that time comes, whatever you choose – know this. You will not be alone. You will never be alone again.”
---
Dion wakes to an Empire in ruins. His wings clipped and his home destroyed, he must find a way to live again and atone for his sins. But destruction seems to follow him wherever he walks, and the hardest task is learning to forgive himself.
Re-telling of post-Twinside until the end of the game and after, from Dion's POV. Mostly canon compliant with missing scenes, filled in. Angst with a happy ending.

Summary
"Buddy, I think it's upside-down," Prompto pointed out, peering around his elbow at the paper.
"It's not, I'm navigating," Noct snapped, wrenching it away. "You turn maps to navigate."
"Which marker are we heading for?" Gladio said, sounding weary.
"Which..." Noct looked closer. "Why the hell are there two markers?"
(One morning, the boys all come down sick. They all, independently, decide that they're going to hide it from everyone else. Laughter through tears is the best medicine. Kinkmeme fill, complete.)

Summary
[Noctis had told his friends he remembered very little of his decade in the crystal.]
[Noctis had lied.]
Trapped in Reflection, Noct discovers Bahamut isn’t quite the benevolent deity he’s made himself out to be. Feeding on death, the Draconian waits in anticipation for Noct’s final sacrifice. And as the sun rises at last, Umbra offers Ignis, Gladio, and Prompto an alternative—but with a catch.
Now, back in a world of light, the four of them discover that behind every happily ever after is a big flaming mess of new problems—from angry gods, to relentless Niffs, to the fallout of a decade spent in darkness, to trying to figure out what exactly is wrong with Noct.
And, as each man battles his daemons, Noct himself finally learns—once and for all—that no one is an island.

Summary
It seemed that the more Ardyn said of himself, the less Lunafreya understood. Yet, curious as she was, she did not dare to pry. The most she could guess, knowing so little of his past, was that he was referring to his odd brand of Starscourge. She had encountered many whose belief had been shaken by this plague, but it had been restored again as soon as she had laid hands on them to draw it out. It was understandable that Ardyn, the one person she could not heal, had lost his faith altogether. (Chapter 12)
Tenebrae and Lucis have been allied against the empire for centuries, but they are fighting a losing war. After a decisive battle, Niflheim forces Tenebrae to surrender and takes the rebellious Prince Ravus captive. Fearing for the life of her brother and the safety of her people, Princess Lunafreya takes matters into her own hands and goes to Gralea to plead their case. However, Emperor Aldercapt’s clemency comes at a price: Lunafreya must replace her mother as Oracle, break her long-standing engagement to Prince Noctis of Lucis, and marry Chancellor Izunia of Niflheim instead.

Summary
“I don’t know how to tell you this, Prompto,” Ignis said, in a soft, horrified voice, “but you may have befriended a daemon.”
----------
Prompto discovers that he has a real way with words when it comes to daemons. What happens, then, when he meets a man who might in fact be several hundred daemons in a suit? Shenanigans, that’s what.

Summary
Astarion is near the docks when he feels Cazador's compulsion on him snap. He doesn't think twice. He just takes the next available ship out of Baldur's Gate. Its destination: The City of Splendors. Waterdeep.
*
Gale takes back the glass, now empty, and then seems to fidget a little. “There is something I wanted to get your opinion on- but it can wait until you’ve recovered. You don’t look well at all- no offense meant, of course.”
“None taken,” Astarion says sweetly. “Please go on. Tell me exactly what it is about my appearance that you find lacking.”

Summary
Updates Sundays.
The Red Raids are in full swing. Decimated by the constant raids from the west, the Nora have managed to negotiate a ceasefire treaty with the Carja, at great cost.
Aloy is only a week out from the Proving, and she's impatient to win the boon of the Matriarchs to learn the answers of her origins. But a tacked-on condition of the ceasefire treaty promises to change her life forever, bringing her to new lands where danger lurks at every turn. Along the way, she must navigate her way through a hostile royal court, deal with her strange husband who burns hot and cold, and figure out how to execute a plot which may be her only hope of one day returning home to Rost.

Cloud curls up and keeps to his own, but never minds if he finds himself next to someone. But there’s also one more thing he does in his sleep. He’s a talker—ask him a question and he’ll respond, even if it’s the wackiest answer you’ve ever heard.And one sleepy morning, Zack and the others decide to have some fun with that.

All Cloud wanted was to wait out his enlistment and move on with his life—to put ShinRa behind him. If he got to piss off some of their personnel in the meantime, great.
He hadn’t been prepared for Genesis Rhapsodos to walk into his life and get him conscripted into SOLDIER.

Summary
Zack Fair, bored and restless in the basement of the Shinra mansion and worried about his superior officer, who's so absorbed in old documents that he's forgetting to eat and sleep, goes poking around the place and finds a coffin.
Vincent Valentine wasn't sure what he'd thought would happen if he ever met Lucrecia Crescent's son, but he didn't expect that their first conversation would be about how you go about forging the contents of a research journal.
Hojo is disappointed that Sephiroth destroyed his "mother" and left Nibelheim sane, and switches to his Plan B. Which involves waking something else that should never have been touched.
In the background, the Planet is arguing with itself as the echoes of a two-thousand-year-old civil war begin to reverberate once again.
And in the middle of all this, poor Vincent is wondering if it's creepy to be attracted to the son of a woman you once had a terrible crush on, and, if not, how you go about suggesting you're interested in a romantic relationship to a man whose survival has always depended on maintaining his emotional isolation.

Summary
Actor, business man, even singer and fashion model when it struck his fancy, Sephiroth had a schedule worse than the President's, enough whims to put a pregnant woman to shame and a demanding and largely overbearing personality. For his personal assistant Cloud Strife, he was a nightmare. Then there was that creep Hojo on TV, blabbering wild stories about mutants...
