Summary
This was a personal invitation, and not even an invitation to finish the beef, to settle the bet; Adam was so impressed with Langa himself that he, the still-undefeated God of S, just wanted to skate together for fun. Maybe, with all the insistence on privacy, he would even be willing to teach Langa some of his tricks. Even Reki would have to admit that that was cool—is what Langa would tell himself if Reki wasn’t the reason he felt so guilty for even finishing reading the message once he’d guessed who’d sent it.

Summary
Set shortly after MSQ 5.3 during the Ishgardian Restoration, spoilers. Aymeric & G’raha Tia, omnicrafter!WoL, with background unrequited Aymeric/WoL and unrequited G'raha/WoL.
It is a good thing that he is aware of G'raha Tia's role in preventing the Eighth Umbral Calamity, Aymeric decides grimly. Otherwise, he would have found the man to be without any redeeming qualities whatsoever.

Summary
For a man about to die, the king looks surprisingly calm. His eyes are shut lightly, no creases on his face beyond the wrinkles that have marked it for years. He doesn't even open them when he coughs.
In front of him, his hands are unshackled and clasped in prayer. Closurei, as the Sanctists used to say. Louis watched the last of their churches burn months ago. After the fire had devoured the final plank of wood, he stood in place for what could have been hours, staring.
