#so long as my wretched little heart can still wallow in angst then I'm good (:

I can't wait for @fellfamilyweek to roll around, I'm having so much fun writing entries for it. And by 'having fun' I mean picking the most emotionally damaging interpretation possible for each prompt and watching my favourite characters rotate in the microwave. I hope other people are working on things for it, as well! (psst if you are then talk to me)

Anyway, here are the summaries of my current pieces, as a preview. Nil features in most of these too, because if we're not including him in the Fell Family then what are we even doing.

I. Nel is overjoyed when her younger twin returns from the battlefield, miraculously alive. Yet gradually, she realises this boy with Nil's face is not what he seems.

II. Once upon a time, Alear had many brothers and sisters, filling the void where a parent's love should have been. One by one, they were taken away from him, except for her.

III. A thousand years ago, a little boy who should have died managed to live. Now he guards the ruins of Lythos with his brother and sister, after the fall of the last Divine Dragon. Which one of them is destined to become the Fell Heir?

Canon divergent Xenologue AU, where Nil survives to adulthood, but everything else still goes wrong.

IV. To place one's dragonstone in another's hands is the greatest act of trust. Veyle holds the stone of her weary, broken-hearted brother, wondering if she will ever find him again. Rafal holds the stone of his sister, stained with her twin's dying blood.

V. Triumphant, Sombron drags the empty shells of his last two offspring into a new world, to continue waging war. When Alear's Emblem Ring is captured after a battle with Divine Dragons, he's shocked by a pair of familiar faces, and realises there's one last chance to save his little sister.

AU based on the bad ending, set in a third Elyos where Nel and her brothers were born as Divine, rather than Fell Dragons.

I've got a tentative (and less mean) idea for the sixth day's prompts, where Veyle is going around the other three and figuring out everyone's favourite foods for a group meal, or wanting photos of them all to put in a memory album. But I'd rather work on the existing fics before starting any more.
