Summary
Long ago, two Titans, the very worlds people lived on, began to fight. The Bionis and the Mechonis clashed, and many lives were lost… Locked in a battle that only ended as their souls began to drain.
An attack devastated the lives of both Titans, leaving them all with more wounds than any would like to admit. But a shaky peace was found, in the middle of what was now known as Sword Valley. The leader of the Machina and the last of the giants came to an agreement; Zanza would be forever locked away, and they would live their own lives. Sword Valley would be neutral territory, only the Mechon on it allowed to remain. For if anyone from the Bionis or the Machina were to step foot on it, the peace would be broken.
The distance would be closed and the curse of Zanza would rear its ugly head once more.
And it seemed the savant Egil, his sister Vanea, and the doctor Linada would be the ones to see the distance close.

this work evokes all of the emotions that Persona 3 gave me whenever I first played it, and reminds me why I hold it so dearly. it also stands as a living example of just why Minato is my favorite character of all time.

Bookmarker's Notes
I am unbelievably picky about how other authors portray Minato, but this fic in particular harmonizes perfectly with who he is to me.
it's a great piece that explores a character relationship that often remains unexplored, both by Atlus and by fandom at large.

Summary
Following Ultimecia's defeat, the world is left in shambles. While he'd like to step down and simply take orders, Squall--or Commander Leonhart--knows he has a responsibility to remain and do all he can to put things back together. Rinoa, meanwhile, has to deal with her newfound abilities and the side-effects they're causing despite her efforts to control her power. And were that not stress enough, President Loire has some news of his own that he has to break, which might be just enough to push Squall over the edge.

Summary
They know him, he should know them, but it registers blank in his mind. The distinguishable feature of the figure is tumbles of dark hair, and tears that drip from their face to his. There is a pain in his heart at the thought and emptiness that drenches him in new fear. Their grip is tight on his body, there are a thousand words that are burning on his tongue, restricted, as he chokes. There is something he has to tell them, it feels so important that he will use his remaining strength to grab their arms, overcome with new ambition—he will tell them before he dies.
But he drowns.
