It's a three-for-one drabble deal today, so I'm going to put them under a line to help not clog anyone's feed. We have...

Day 24: Anticipation -- Libertus Ostium, Tredd Furia, Pelna Khara, Crowe Altius, Nyx Ulric, Glauca

Day 25: “Shouldn’t You Be Happy?" -- Prompto Argentum, Noctis Lucis Caelum -- Parental fighting

Day 26: Free Falling -- Nyx Ulric -- Heights, explosions

*******



Day 24: Anticipation (Ao3)

“What do you mean ‘explode’?!” Libertus yelled over the comm.

“That’s what ‘engine overload’ means!” Tredd yelled back. “Explode!”

“This hunk of metal is too big to just fall from the sky,” Pelna said. “There has to be life pods -- shuttles -- drop ships -- something! Just give me a second…”

“60 seconds! Get away from the back of the--” Tredd’s line shrieked and died. Not a second later an explosion shook the ship -- not the big one, not yet, but it had to be starting.

“Fuck fuck fuck…okay, emergency pods! Third and sixth levels, either side!” Pelna instructed.

“Probably not happening, got a problem,” Nyx said, his comm half static.

“What kind of ‘problem’?!” Crowe demanded.

“I’ll catch up, don’t worry,” Nyx said.

He clicked off the comm. Before him, in the center a hold full of empty daemon cages, stood the armored figure of Glauca.

*******

Day 25: “Shouldn’t You Be Happy?" (Ao3)

Hey, this gala is boring. Wanna play Knight’s Tale?

Prompto stared at the bright phone from under the blankets of his bed.

Not right now, sorry. Not really in the mood.

He had told them he was tired, that he should just head to bed. Him leaving hadn’t solved the problem though.

It’s Solstice, shouldn’t you be happy?

A cabinet door slammed shut downstairs. Voices raised again, bickering back and forth.

Of course I’m happy. Got lots of cool stuff.

Prompto made himself smile, trying to convince himself. There was a loud crash downstairs then someone opened the outside door. The car started up a minute later.

“Who wouldn’t be?” He turned the phone off and tried to actually sleep.

*******

Day 26: Free Falling (Ao3)

Continued from Day 24.

------- Someone, Nyx thought, was whistling. Not the pleasant tune kind, but the long, annoying shriek kind.

Couldn’t people just let a guy sleep?

Ugh, and it was cold too. He reached for blankets and found none. His hand only found air. Air that felt like it was moving.

Nyx opened his eyes and stared up at a blue sky, at the very center of which was a large, cylindrical piece of metal that was being torn apart by blooms of fire.

Pieces of that metal were falling. Toward him.

He grabbed at his kukri and threw it instinctively to the side before a chunk twice his height barreled through where he had just been. The lack of impact, of either him or the debris confused him, until he looked toward where the debris was headed.

The ground. So small, yet growing oh so very quickly.

Oh…oh fuck…

Would warping even save him here? Sure they warped off buildings but usually that was measured in stories, not thousands of feet!

You can do this, Nyx told himself firmly. You’ll just need to time it right. The anchor has to stop before you warp…

Eeeeeeeee ur headcanons about drautos and a princess has me swooning 😍 what would our beloved captain do if his princess got kidnapped by the imperials? How would he handle that being glauca and the cap that’s fallin for her

Helloooo anonie! I am so glad you liked it 😊 I had blast with it myself!  I am sorry it took so long, but life is wild right now and my health isn´t the best :/

Okie dokie, let me get to your ask:

HA! He may be a general, but not all commands are given by him (he didn´t know that Operation DOVE was your kidnapping, he almost killed Verstael for that)

is very keen on sabotaging this operation as Captain Drautos obvi

yet there is a problem called Glauca ( like that is great tactical advantage, why should I stop this for her)

Titus feels like he´s got older by 30 years due the stress and worry about you ( Glauca: She´s disposable piece in the game, you can find a different toy)

Titus will not personally come for you, sadly (Glauca: We need to prepare for the attack on the Citadel, not to be someone lap dog on call )

Sends his glaives on specific location (” Our informator on the other side gave us their location.” It was just Titus leaking info and pissing of Verstael, rightfully) "Give them hell, glaives."

"Captain, extraction mission was succeed. The princess is safe" Titus never felt happier than in that moment, mark my words (Glauca: So useless, You're just prolonging the inevitable)

as Glauca he would mock Verstael for not telling him about his plan, and that he could do it better "Don't get in my way or you will regret it."

when you met him in private of his apartment, he´s being so tender and caring (and a little possessive, let´s be honest there)

Titus made love to you that night, letting his burried emotions on the surface

you were asleep in his arms, soft smile gracing your features. Titus felt as if his heart was in pincers. (Glauca: We should have killed her when there was a time, now she will only suffer ... because of you)

The amount of times Ive rewatched Kingsglaive is unhealthy and I need to be heavily sedated... or put in therapy.

A Shower Of Gold

The depth-of-field seemed a little thin despite the aperture being set at f/8. Perhaps I was a little too close to the flowers and the background clusters were also some way off.

Who will arrange my great escape? Hopelessly I have been torn from this outrage Tossing and turning uneasy, it cost me the cross Am I at rest or resigned in my chaos?

Day 29: Failure (Ao3)

Same story as Days 24, 26, 27, and 28. Prequel to Day 26.

TW: Heights, head wounds

-------

Glauca threw the kukri to the side, perhaps a little harder than he intended. He didn’t wince when the kukri hit the metal pillar followed a millisecond later by Nyx. Didn’t wince on the outside that is. He didn’t actually want to kill the man -- he just needed him out of his way.

Come on, get up. He thought as he stalked over to the prone form, but Nyx wasn’t moving. He was still breathing, but that was it. Blood flowed liberally from the side of his head.

Glauca sighed. Idiot.

The ship shook violently as a series of explosions began in the aft. Glauca reached down and stuck Nyx’s kukris in his sheathes before picking him up and tossing him over his shoulder.

The armor’s jets made navigating the ship quick and easy, even as it jerked and listed. He went up, aiming for the dropship hanger on the top of the craft. It quickly became a mute point as the vessel began to crack and break around him.

He hovered in the thin air near the descending wreck and took out a potion from armiger. He cracked it over Nyx’s skull and the man began to stir.

Now’s the chance to prove you’re as good as everyone thinks you are, Glauca thought.

Then he dropped him.

This one's done, and the blue shark was funded about the time I finished it, so I guess I'll do a goblin shark next to see if the good juju continues~

Critter fact #42:

The Blue Shark (Prionace glauca) is one of the most widely distributed sharks. This species embarks on long migrations.
