I saved him, but at what cost?

After about 2-3 months in pf hell, I finally cleared my first ultimate.

[koukouture]

so i was thinking abt haurchefant and a million miles away from belle came on shuffle and i guest akfrhi2euhnfueueuueueueueue

Memories fade away Clouds of yesterday With no one to love Is this life worth living?

[Chorus] Come back to me, and stay by my side I feel my heart shake Come, ease this ache I'm standing over here, reaching for you A million miles away, come back and stay

[Post-Chorus] No matter how far the memories may be When I close my eyes, you're all that I see Come back to me A million miles away, come back and stay

*screaming crying sobbing*

[ferrocyan]

absolutely no way in hell this is meant to be like a wolchefant reference w how the character is tied to one of the hardest content in the game and clearing it is a farewell to their passing

but it does make me go insane

[vixlenxe]

She totally wouldn't throw herself in front of that spear of light if she knew what was going to happen if she didn't otherwise.

Whaaaaaaaaaaat. Nooooooooooo.

For post expansion content, it will be the title of the first patch released post launch At least until the end of the patch cycle where it will likely shift to the end patch. Only exception is 1.0 (although I doubt it will get any use) which is based off the album title

I don't do ultimates but I just now heard the version of Revenge Twofold used for I think the final phase of the dragonsong ultimate. Talk about taking amazing music and making it even better.

Dragonsong's Reprise

[radiantlightxx]

A short Heavensward-era comic about grief and guilt.

Major ⚠️heavensward spoilers⚠️ contained here.

Some notes:

Xel'ia had innate talent as a healer, but no formal training at the time of HW, so on page 2, you can see her trying (and failing) to heal. She also didn't pick up drk until after HW, and mainly did it as a way of coping with her grief and heartache.

The whole thing is inspired by a quote from Buffy (though I ended up changing it a little) and Dragonsong Reprise Ultimate!

[1driedpersimmon]

Trick or treat, pls

You have managed to brave my house of horrors and thwart the evil which lurks in my spooky maze, and thus you have reached the end. But what will you receive? Will it be a trick, or a treat? I will let my bag of goodies decide your fate! 👻

This is quite fun! The fic I'll be talking about is letters to my chosen one (warning: E) because this one still holds a tender place in my heart and I think about it every now and then. (and you're also familiar with it, so that helps)

The angel/demon AU I came up with after using a wheel picker to decide my fate (much like it decided yours here) because I couldn't decide on an idea to write next. BUT the overarching plot, themes, chapter names, and fic title all come from a rather odd source.

A mixup of various songs, but the predominant theme is that I picked from FFXIV. I'm about to show my nerd knowledge now.

death of the heavens — this is a mechanic from the ultimate raid, Dragonsong's Reprise in FFXIV. A bunch of dragons divebombing while twisters are going off and the Knights of the Round, aka Thordan's henchmen, are casting their own things <- this isn't very relevant, but it's where I got that name from.

chosen one/one with the true divine — taken from the song, One Amongst the Weary <- spoilers for Endwalker expansion

And the overarching angst with a happy ending of letters to my chosen one is based off of Dragonsong from the Heavensward expansion. I liked the subplot of Hraesvelgr and Shiva falling in love, only to be torn apart by Hraesvelgr's broodsibling Nidhogg and his hatred of humans, and I incorporated inspiration from that here. 👀

Dazai painfully sheds his wings when he steps into Chuuya's home and that's when he immediately knew something was off. He wouldn't have that kind of reaction around a human. It was something terrible, and his hunch was right. But even as Chuuya burns his hands again and again touching Dazai's wings and trying to clean up the feathers and blood spilled everywhere, there's no animosity, just apathy. He pities Dazai because Dazai is the blind one who agreed to become Chuuya's guardian angel without even asking the High Court, why him? Why a lowly historian? Dazai does not question his elders nor their beliefs and it leads him to his demise.

"Two souls intertwined, one true love they did find," keeps making me think of angel!Dazai and demon!Chuuya because Dazai had been assigned to Chuuya as his guardian angel, and even after discovering Chuuya had actually been a demon, that did not tear them apart. Only the mortal world tore them apart when it was time for Dazai to return to heaven, while Chuuya remained stuck on earth because he had fallen far and a long time ago that he couldn't even begin to remember the last time he had wings, but on earth he's free and not bound by expectations.

ask box trick-or-treat (fic writer edition)
