The aforementioned Finitar content. Happy (late) Finitar week. (And thank you to @xanadaus for hosting this.)

It’s pretty much just them flirting for 800 words tbh

@cogaytes @gaslight-gaetkeep-gayboss

“I hope you’ve given some thought to my offer,” Fintan says, slipping into the room with the grace only an elf could have, cloak swinging in the air behind him. 

Dimitar raises an eyebrow. “I thought we had agreed to discuss this tomorrow.”

The elf smirks and holds up his wrist, complete with a glimmering, diamond-encrusted watch, and Dimitar scoffs. Elves and their grandeur. “Correct,” he says. “And it’s five minutes past midnight, so here we are.”

Dimitar can only sigh, sitting up from his bed and flicking on the lamp on his nightstand. “Remind me who I put on guard tonight, so that I can fire them for letting some rogue into my bedchambers so late.”

“Don’t blame your guards. They were beguiled by my good looks, I believe.” Fintan moves forward, taking a seat at the foot of Dimitar’s bed. “But truly, you flatter me.”

Dimitar scoffs. “You flatter yourself.”

“As any good leader should,” he replies smoothly, “but you know that, of course. Which brings me to my offer from this morning.” Dimitar pointedly ignores the way Fintan’s gaze rests far below his eyes, at his bare chest, his eyes tracing the elaborate tattoos that decorate his skin. “Are you listening?” Fintan says, and Dimitar realizes with a jolt that the elf had been speaking—and from the looks of his smirk, Fintan is well aware of what had distracted him. 

“Of course I am,” Dimitar lies, and he tries to sound aggressive, but the attempt falls flat. 

Fintan grins. “Right, of course. And your response?”

Ah. “To you, it’s no on principle.”

“An awfully strong response to someone simply asking for a snack.” Fintan smirks at him knowingly, and Dimitar wants to slap that insufferable smile off the elf’s little face. 

“My chefs don’t work every hour of the day,” Dimitar says. “Unlike you lot, we treat our workers well.”

“I didn’t realize you cared so much for the well-being of the gnomes,” Fintan replies. “In that case, perhaps I should find another leader to carry out my plans.”

“I don’t think any of my fellow leaders would take kindly to you showing up in their bedchambers at midnight.”

Fintan raises an eyebrow. “Ah, but you do?”

Dimitar blinks, and suddenly Fintan is surging forward, his hand coming to rest on Dimitar’s bare thigh. There’s a brief moment where their lips are barely a hair’s breadth apart, but then Fintan quickly retreats, and Dimitar, strangely, finds himself missing his warmth. 

“Do you treat all of your business partners like this?” he asks, staring pointedly at near-negative distance between their legs on the bed. Fintan’s fingers suddenly burn white-hot against his skin, and Dimitar bristles. He’d forgotten, for a moment, that the elf could control fire—important information that he’d sworn to keep at the forefront of his mind during all conversations with the man. But though Dimitar had trained his entire youth to keep his wits about him during battle, this kind of warfare had never been discussed—the kind of warfare that involves Fintan’s eyes scanning every inch of his face and beyond, never once breaking their physical connection even as Dimitar shifts. 

“I’ll admit, I have…unconventional methods of persuasion,” Fintan says. “But my methods certainly work.”

“Forgive me if I have a hard time believing that.”

A strand of blond hair slips loose from Fintan’s long braid, and Dimitar instinctively reaches up to push it aside. “You’re forgiven,” Fintan replies, after a moment of heavy silence. 

Dimitar chuckles. “How kind of you. Though I hope you realize that I’m still thoroughly unconvinced about your plan.” 

“Oh, you’ll come around to it eventually,” Fintan says, lips curling into a dastardly grin. “For now, though, I must retire to my own chambers, as comfortable as this bed may be.” He stands as if to leave, but even as he speaks his goodbyes, he lingers, head leaning over Dimitar’s with a soft smirk. 

“What?” Dimitar asks, raising an eyebrow. “Do you need a kiss good night?”

“Only if you’re offering,” Fintan replies smoothly.

There’s some traitorous part of him that shivers beneath Fintan’s cool gaze, that wants to say yes, of course I’m offering, that wants to kiss him until the sun rises over Ravagog and put an end to these weeks of endless tension. But he is a king of ogres, and this is an elven rogue in his bed, and so with this distance between them they will have to part, with no kisses goodbye or plans to be made. 

“Good night, Lord Pyren,” Dimitar settles on saying as Fintan slowly retreats. “Sleep well.” 

“I’ll certainly try,” the elf says. “But sleep on my offer, now. I promise it will entice you in the morning.”

“I highly doubt that.”

(He’s done many questionable things during his reign, but a gnomish plague sounds, quite frankly, outlandish. He would never fall for such a thing.) 

Fintan smirks. “Oh, just you wait.”

I've had no time this month to write a fic for finitar week. so instead. behold this moodboard adjacent thing i made in half an hour. for "Taylor Swift" day.

Thank you @xanadaus for hosting this week. He's doing the lords work.

is. is there a finitar week playlist.

unfortunately.

[archived-and-moving]

are you excited for finitar week? ;)

ಠ_ಠ

[archived-and-moving]

What does Free (Taylor Swift) means? I don't understand...

I'm gonna be honest, I completely forgot that Finitar Week existed for a moment there.

So a bunch of us on the discord server were joking that almost any taylor swift song could match with finitar's (already quite cursed) relationship. So we decided we wanted that as a prompt.

(Along with the fact that I had about 7 people suggest it on the form.)

So, Free (as in a free day to do whatever you'd like) or, if you want a prompt (Taylor Swift).

This means you could have one of her songs be the title of your finitar fic, draw fintan and or dimitar in one of her outfits, or have them in poses or color pallettes of her albums, or the most reasonable option, ignore the prompt all together and avoid the cursed nature of this ship. (light-hearted, whatever you'd like to do is up to you.)

So sorry I didn't make that more clear!

[archived-and-moving]

wdym this is gonna influence the finitar prompts no it fucking wont i promise (lying.)

[archived-and-moving]

hmph. it'll take place from February 5th-11th. Prompts (...and playlist) will be out in the next few weeks.

[archived-and-moving]
