by blue like winter (bleucommelhiver) There is envy and rage in his heart when Somnus strikes down his brother — sword impaled through chest, through flesh and crack of bones until the throne room’s marble floor and his brother’s body becomes one. There is envy and rage and Somnus can feel it coursing through his veins, an ebrious thrum of power fueled by the thrill of battle and righteous fear, but why, then, does his hands tremble so in the quiet brilliance of dawn? A story of the first Kings of Lucis, both true and false, and the first Oracle to commune with the Gods.

Nyx x Reader - A Present

A late Christmas-y/Holiday-ish drabble I made for the awesome discord crew! I would link the prompt list into this, but apparently it has disappeared while I was doing my thing. Also sorry for taking my time with these!

This weak attempt to write Nyx is for @bleucommelhiver! 

Honestly, you are an awesome person with the skills to make someone definitely not me write about nyx dyx. I love cackling, scheming and gently teasing @glaive-eve with you and I am glad to have met you through #brainfarts <3 

Sorry, I am bad with this kind of stuff. I don’t normally write this kind of cute, lovely praising thingies.

The prompt for this fic was “Ho ho ho, bitch.” Nyx x reader as the pairing. Yay, hopefully this is good enough as I don’t write about Nyx that much! I rewrote it like 3 times and I still feel slightly insecure about it, but I TRIED OKAY?

The headquarters of the Kingsglaive rarely got affected by any events happening outside its walls. But now when Insomnia had gained a light white coat of snow and Christmas was approaching, even the glaives decided to cheer up the foul atmosphere that had been lingering in every corner for the past year or so.

You were sitting on a bench at the courtyard of the headquarters — next to Nyx, like you always did. Nyx kept admiring the slowly falling snowflakes and you couldn't refrain yourself from stealing glances at him. He just looked amazing in his dark kingsglaive coat while the powder snow piled up on his shoulders.

Steadily approaching commotion made you both snap from the peaceful still you both had fallen into. For some reason you didn’t feel surprised to see Tredd, Luche, Sonitus and Pelna heading towards your usual spot.

“What’s up you two?” Tredd asked and winked slyly at you, leaving no questions with his demeanor.

“Nothing much,” you decided to answer before Nyx could. He just shifted his gaze from Tredd to you and for a moment you thought you had seen a flare light up in his sky blue eyes.

“I’ve got you a Christmas present, Y/N,” Pelna said softly, his eyes sparkling innocently. Tredd groaned and Luche let out a cold half-chuckle.

“O-okay…” was all you managed to answer before Tredd took a step closer to you.

“You can only imagine what Tredd has prepared for you,” his lips had curled up smugly and you could see the mischief playing in his eyes. There was no doubt what he wanted to ‘gift’ to you. “Have you gotten her anything, Nyx?”

Nyx chuckled and stood up. “Aren’t I a gift to the world already?” The sarcastic tone he used against Tredd made a joyful feeling bubble in your chest. Tredd rolled his eyes and Pelna did his best as he hid his howling laughter from the rest of the group.

You decided to stand up too; the bench was getting cold without Nyx anyway.

“Make sure you make her happy this Christmas!” Tredd snarled. You felt your cheeks heating up in the cool winter air and Tredd’s words puzzled you even more.

What was he talking about?

It wasn’t like you and Nyx were together anyway he had no obligations to make your holiday happy.

You just happened to be good friends with Nyx and of course there were excited sparks in the air whenever you were alone with him… but it was just pure friendship. And maybe knowing how kind and loyal he was, not to mention his looks, made you feel all hot and bothered at times.

“Ho ho ho!” Nyx shouted after them. “Bitches,” he added with quiet mutter so no one else could hear it, but the joyful giggle you let escape your mouth made him smirk mildly. Pelna had hesitated for a moment as he obviously wanted to stay and talk with you. Fortunately, duty called.

“Don’t tell me you have actually gotten me something,” you groaned and nudged Nyx’s arm playfully with your elbow.

Nyx chuckled as he turned to face you, making your heart skip a beat. His gaze had warm affection you hadn’t seen before, but it dissipated in a flash.

“Actually I do,” Nyx mumbled with a fake-cough and you cocked a brow at him. To which he only grinned mysteriously.

“Oh, look! They’re kissing under a mistletoe!” he suddenly gasped and pointed somewhere behind you.

“Wh— who?” you yelped and turned around to see what he was pointing at, but there was nothing. Just a wall. You had already pulled an utterly confused, pouty face when you turned back to face him. To face Nyx, who was now holding a mistletoe above you.

“Merry Christmas,”  he said softly and leaned in, close enough for you to feel his breath on your skin. Close enough to make your heart pound rapidly, senses go numb and legs weak. He had given you enough time to back away, but it was more like an instinct when you crashed your lips against his and threw arms over his shoulders to pull him closer and deepen the kiss that had started as a gentle one.

“Ho ho ho — bitch,” you murmured with a sweet smile after he broke the kiss to see your heated expression.

I am super excited for this zine's concept! Would you be open to including things from Kingsglaive? I, for one, would love to see the exploration of Galahdan culture and how it causes their art to differ from that of Lucis -- I think exploring the different art styles of different nations would be particularly interesting all together! (As a side note, I don't know if you're aware, but the browser version of your page is a little hard to read from the lack of contrast between the text and bg)

We would absolutely love to see concepts from Kingsglaive explored in the zine! We’re hoping to encourage contributors to create works representing minor characters so that the zine is not too heavily focused on the main four boys, and Kingsglaive would make a fantastic addition. Exploring cultures outside of Lucis (Galahd, Niflheim, etc) is a great idea! (And thank you for the heads-up; that should be fixed now!)

Aeria Lucis Caelum for @bleucommelhiver

[owldearest]

THESE BOYS CAN’T NAVIGATE

Hey, @bleucommelhiver,

A letter for you too. apparently, I am indeed the delivery woman for today. Oh well. This one was cute though. watch yourself, I might steal him. ;)

Merry Christmas!

Ciel,

Sorry, I won’t be with you all day. You know, work has to come first, but I will be there as soon as I’m off-duty. Nobody should be alone on Christmas, so as soon as the party’s over and I’m free, I’ll be running to your place faster than you can say Chocobo.

Okay, babe. I know you. You’re saying it. It’s an exaggeration. But I will be there tonight. I promise. Now, I gotta go before Libertus gives me shit.

I love you. Merry Christmas, Ciel.

[lunyxweek]

I've had an idea for a fic for the longest time that would fit with Day 4, however, I'm a little hesitant as to whether or not to submit it as part of LuNyx week as while there is LuNyx involved, and it is from Luna's POV, it's one sided pining and mostly angst without endgame LuNyx (general idea of the story is everyone survives, but Luna must still marry Noct but she loves Nyx who is unaware of her feelings/does not reciprocate). Let me know if this is acceptable or not!

Well, day 4 seems to be made for angst right? And sometimes the greatest love stories don’t end well. Just go on with it! However, if you can, do us the courtesy to add some kind of warning/tag for it. You know, something like, “lunyx fic, but not endgame” or whatever, so people that don’t like other ships to be involved will be warned :)

[goxjo]

She wasn’t sure what was wrong. Just that something was extremely off. She felt like there was a pit in her stomach and it just kept growing and growing. Something was happening but she couldn’t put her finger on it.

So she did what she always did when something was wrong and pushed it to the back of her mind. She had other things to take care of.

Finishing off her hunt was easy. Cathartic even. After not having answers about herself for so long, having the evidence to recent killings being due to vampires and that leading to her cutting said vampires heads off? Extremely therapeutic.

Getting back to the motel she cleaned up, grabbed some greasy comfort food and a bottle of rum. Happily laying in bed she pulled out her phone. She didn’t have any notifications and it made the pit in her stomach return. Frowning she turned some music on and felt a smile tug on her face when her favorite song came on. It was a song she attributed to a certain pair of brothers.

It was the song that played when she saved the brothers asses from a pack of werewolves in a bar. It’s the song that played on their long cross country drives. The one that played when she was setting up her room at home with the boys.

Home

She was homesick

“I’m ...homesick,” she mumbled staring at the screen. She almost started laughing in disbelief at the realization.

She glanced at her watch, calculating how quickly she could make it back to the bunker before she shot up out of bed. Gathering her weapons, laptop, clothes and unopened bottle of rum she threw it all in her bag and grabbed her car keys. She checked out as quickly as possible and drove all night. The open empty roads getting her back home as the sun rose.

She all but burst through the front door. Her eyes softening as she took in the sight of the bunker. She walked into the library tracing her fingers over their initials carved into the wood. She spun around at the call of her name, a smile gracing her face and as she took in the sight of her boys, still in their pajamas with sleep in their eyes.

It wasn’t until she was pulled into their arms that she realized it wasn’t the bunker that was her home. No it was the Winchester’s.

And she was finally home.

Gladio was fifteen when he was first introduced to Nyx. He was sent to spend three months with the Kingsglaive as punishment for a prank gone wrong.

The said prank involved adding a laxative on Noctis’s dinner as revenge for the one the prince sneaked into his protein shake. But to Gladio’s miserable luck, the one who ate Noctis’s food was King Regis. Noctis knew it was Gladio’s doing so he ratted him out. Of course, Clarus found out about this, hence Gladio’s “exile” away from the Crownsguard and into the cutthroat environment that is the Kingsglaive HQ.

For the first few weeks, Gladio and Nyx were at each other’s throats. They were both stubborn and painfully hot-headed, which made it even worse. Even Drautos had to intervene to stop their fucking nonsense. Everything became a competition to them: from basic drills, physical endurance tests, down to cleaning the fucking showers. They settled their arguments in arm wrestling—or good old fashioned boxing—like the true barbarians that they are.

Nyx blessed Gladio with many insulting and colourful nicknames, but Flower Boy is his most favourite. 

Who would have thought that the only time Gladio and Nyx would realize that they can actually be good bros was when Nyx taught Gladio how to braid his sister’s hair? Permit me to elaborate on this:

It should be noted that Gladio was reluctant to ask for Nyx’s help, but he knew all too well that it’s a Galahdian thing and no one could help him best other than this insufferable piece of shit. So. He went to ask Nyx, against his pride. It’s all for Iris, anyway.

Nyx was surprised to hear Gladio asking advice on how to do a braid. Of all things. And Nyx, being the pompous son of a bitch that he was, was like, “What for, little flower boy?” And Gladio, immediately defensive, was like, “Shut up, it’s for my sister. I tried showing her the ones on the Internet and she doesn’t like any of it.” And then Nyx, just at the mention of Gladio doing it for his sister, agreed in a heartbeat.

When Nyx met Iris, they clicked in an instant. Like, Nyx and Iris would have a field day making fun of Gladio, and Gladio would be like, “What the hell have I done.” Even so, the three of them hung out so frequently after that.

Nyx could not deny that watching Gladio bonding with Iris reminded him so much of Selena. When Gladio had finally asked him why he had helped, he said, “I used to do it for my sister all the time.” Gladio said nothing. He already knew what Nyx had been through, and decided not to probe any further.

Okay, so, most people believe that Gladio has always been one charming hunk of a man. Was he born with it? Well, you’re wrong. He was actually kind of awkward in his teens. He could not even ask a girl out for Homecoming without tripping in his shoes, or stuttering into his own rejection. In this case, Nyx (with a little help from Pelna, Libertus, and Luche) always came to Gladio’s rescue. With their unsolicited advice on how to talk to girls. How they knew of Gladio’s adolescent woes is beyond him.

“Consider us your fairy godbros, if you will,” Pelna had said. “Today, I shall teach you how to live.” In which Pelna goes into an effort of sharing some of his cheesiest pick-up lines that are, quite frankly, strangely good???

Look, look, look. There has been a circulating rumour around the Citadel hat Nyx has already slept with half of the women (and men) in the Lucian Force, and he swears upon his life that all of these claims are nothing but horseshit. “These people just do not know how to fucking count,” is what he usually says. Jokingly. But jokes are half meant. Anyway. Despite his dastardly reputation, he still spares some excellent dating advice—much to Gladio’s surprise. And by excellent dating advice, Nyx might seem like the type to break hearts (which he is, according to most of his exes, even if he refuses to acknowledge it) but he’s also the guy who insists to always, always treat your partner right.

“Maybe you might want to follow your own advice so you could keep a serious relationship, hero,” Libertus would often say, casually pouring in some scalding tea for his best friend. Nyx could only respond with a scowl, because, well. He knows he deserves the tea.

Having been born and raised in the tropical isles of Galahd, Nyx is a naturally an outdoorsman by heart. Nyx, along with Libertus and Luche, often dragged young Gladio to trek into the mountains in Leide. By the time Gladio was twenty-three, the four of them had been planning to hike the illustrious Rock of Ravatogh, until the treaty signing came up.

It shouldn’t be a surprise that Nyx’s love for the outdoors has rubbed off on Gladio. And everytime he pitches that tent, camping underneath the stars with Noctis, Ignis, and Prompto, he is always reminded of that short yet brief time with his Glaive friends.
