#summer sunset event .

[bundolli]

I'm not sure how much I'll miss this summer event. I didn't enjoy it as much as the past two years. But it still enabled me to take some cute photos. :> I'm excited for 4.0!

[madeimpact]

Wait...if he's technically part of the Crownsguard...oh, man. What is he supposed to wear to an event like this? He's never gone to the Summer Sunset Ball. Is the Marshal gonna have something for him? Is he gonna have to get an expensive suit? He'll do anything for his best friend's birthday, but yeesh, that's probably gonna hurt the old bank account....

Well, it's a good thing he doesn't need to go rifling for outfits when he already has a perfect one.

Summer Sunset-exclusive open starter

"Calista, don't wander off too far, alright...? I don't want to lose you!"

"But Uncle!" Calista sighed as she glanced toward her uncle. "There's so much to see and explore while we're here. We might as well make the best of this opportunity."

"Your uncle does have a point, Lady Calista." General Asthar managed, his eyes meeting hers. "There is a lot to see, but this is a much larger area than Lazulis City. It'd be best for all four of us to stay close."

"Alright..." A sigh left the new Countess of Lazulis. A shame Zael couldn't make it for the Summer Sunset ball, as he was busy holding down things back in Lazulis Island. However, Calista promised to bring him back some souvenirs for sure, at least - and plenty of stories to tell about this whole event.

"I'm sure we'll be fine." Therius managed. "And besides, the event will be taking place over quite some time, Lady Calista. We'll have plenty of time to explore the area and participate in its festivities."

"I hope so." Calista glanced toward Therius, smiling softly. "And I would like to try riding a Chocobo at some point, too. Those sound fun."

"I saw a few people riding them earlier as we entered the city." Asthar noted. "It's similar to riding horseback, so...."

"It's not every day that the Citadel is open to the public like this," the blue haired man says with a quiet smile. "How are you enjoying the sights, ma'am?"

Summer Sunset Asks - Kalen & Gwen

The smile is returned with a brighter one of her own. The ginger princess seemed quite at ease at the moment, simply enjoying her time in the city itself as well. "Ah, yes! The city is quite lovely. I find that seeing new things is always a wonderful experience."

Gwen tilts her head, looking at the man who had approached her with some curiosity. "And yourself, sir?"

[bravelywego]

"Maybe I should buy one of those totems for good luck. One of them has to give good luck, right?"

Kamiizumi noticed DeRosa glancing at the totems on display in the farmer's market. "Honestly, I don't know how they work - perhaps it'd be good to ask first before impulse-purchasing...?"

The Red Mage chuckled at that. "Too late. Bought two just now."

"Oh no."

"They said the totems are supposed to be replicas of creatures that commune with the Astrals." Geist noted. "What those deities are, I don't know."

"That would also be good to ask," Kamiizumi managed with a sigh, "Just in case."

"Hey! It's not like I've started an end-of-the-world scenario with anything." DeRosa huffed a little, shaking his head. "Besides, at the very least I can study up on them a bit back in Luxendarc...or if there's a public library here in Insomnia, maybe I can read up on them."

"Where is it!? Where are those chocobo petting stations...?" Tahirah checked the map, just before Arlyn spoke up.

"I believe they're located at the farmer's market...Wiz's station, they said?"

"Yeah, but where's the farmer's market?" Nuriel stared around, frowning. "Are we lost? Oh, we're definitely lost."

"I think it's up ahead." Rafaele pointed ahead of the group. Cue the others turning to see -

"Oh. You're right." Tahirah beamed up at Rafaele. "Thank you, godfather! Let's get going!"

And so, the group arrived at the farmer's market, eager to pet chocobos...

[blitz-heart]

"A ball? I'd have see what I have to wear...but it sounds nice!! I'd love to attend."

[madeimpact]

Attention all toons in attendance at the ball: if you're feeling lost or out of place, this is your anime guy.

Yandere Batfamily x Neglected & "Immortal" Reader 》 III

Part I Part II Part IV

Took me so long to figure out how the rest of the story could go XP Also, I've seen how some of y'all want the reader to become a vigilante/villain :) It is definitely possible but not with the current story idea I have in mind. Maybe one day, I'll make a side story where the reader becomes a vigilante/villain

CW: Violence (Bar Fight), Stalking, Blood, "Death"

It has been a few weeks since you moved into Bludhaven and Nightwing being your nighttime companion

He always comes over to your apartment with a couple of injuries and asks to stay a bit

With Nightwing’s instructions, you learn to bandage injuries to help the hero

Maybe it’s because your mental wounds from your neglectful family are still fresh, but Nightwing quickly started to grow on you.

It just feels nice to have a friend while adjusting to your new life.

It also could be because he actually came to the rescue when you were attacked

This does make you wonder why Batman didn’t save you in Gotham but who knows what that big guy does.

Another thing you wonder about sometimes is who Nightwing is.

You were never really curious about the vigilantes in Gotham, even though four well-known vigilantes resided there.

Ever since you met Nightwing, you tried doing some research on him but you immediately stopped when you saw the words “Richard Grayson” in an article.

While the batfamily would be more than happy to stay in Bluvenon so they can meet you, Gotham needed them. (Also they may overwhelm you)

Because of this, the family (except Dick and Jason) return home where more plans are made.

Jason decided that he will be the next person you meet and he won’t take no for an answer.

There is one problem though, you’ve seen Jason with his Red Hood attire

You may not have connected the dots at the time but you definitely will when you see him again.

After debating with Dick, Jason finally agrees to primarily watch you from a distance

In an attempt to meet more people, you decided to participate in some summer events that your college was hosting

You make a couple of friends and go out together

College classes are just around the corner and your friends suggested going out to a bar

This is a special moment so you decide to go with them

You all made plans on the designated driver and kept an eye out for your drinks

When you go to the bar, it's almost sunset.

This is your first time drinking but you trust your friends to keep you safe. (You ended up hating the taste)

Unknown to you, Jason is watching you from outside of the bar

If it was Dick’s turn to watch over you, he’d drag you back to your apartment.

Jason just allows you to have your fun time with friends, getting lost in how happy and innocent you seem.

This all crashes down when a fight suddenly happens right next to you

You and your friends try to get away from the scene but you're suddenly knocked to the ground

A drunk person slams a glass of alcohol next to you, probably mistaking you for someone else, which gives you a ton of small cuts.

Jason quickly puts on his mask and breaks into the bar. He beats up any drunk person who tries to stop him from reaching you.

Your sober friend tries to pull you away from the fight but is worried about all of your cuts

Red Hood suddenly appears to drag you and your friend away from the fight.

The fight gets worse and some random person seems to have called the ambulance

When the ambulance arrives, your sober friend hands you over to them and Red Hood disappears

You’re given a few bandages before the medic has to focus on another injured individual

In your dizzy state, you manage to slip away to stop the ringing in your ears

Something in you also told you it wasn’t safe to go to the hospital

Walking through an alley, your bandages seem to loosen and you eventually collapse on the ground from blood loss

Red Hood steps away for a second and you suddenly disappear.

He didn't want to be seen by the ambulance so he got onto a nearby rooftop to update Nightwing on the situation.

At least you didn't get far but the blood pooling under you slowly grows. This would be the second time you died

Nightwing appears and finds you wrapped up in a jacket while Red Hood picks you up off the ground.

One of the walls of the alley seems to have gotten a hole from Red Hood punching it out of frustration

Getting closer, Nightwing can see that you were given fresh bandages before being wrapped up in Red Hood’s jacket.

Also, you’re still breathing!

Seeing that you may still be alive, you’re taken to Nightwing’s apartment

Red Hood places you on the bed while Nightwing contacts Batman.

After one final look over and a blanket thrown over your body, Red Hood joins Nightwing in the living room

You slowly wake up in an unknown room and immediately sit up

The first thing you notice is how dark the room is

Squinting a bit, you find a lamp on the nightstand and turn it on

You find yourself in a bedroom with a blue and black color palette

There’s a desk in front of the bed with two computer monitors

You turn on the computer to see the date and immediately recognize a name

Richard Grayson

The name is enough to fill you with annoyance but you try to stay focused

How did you get here? Are you back in Gotham? Back at the manor?

You go to the bedroom door to find a living room instead of a hallway

Maybe you were still in Bludhaven?

This room definitely looks like it belongs to Dick

You never found his room in the manor but you did learn about some of his interests when you tried to befriend him (Alfred had to tell you all this)

As you finish snooping around the bedroom, a sound from the other room makes you freeze up

You quickly turn the light off, lay back on the bed, close your eyes and pretend to be sleeping

There are some voices in the living room but it's hard to hear past the sound of your racing heartbeat

Your heart almost stops when you hear the bedroom door open and the voices get louder.

At least you can actually understand what they’re saying now

They mention Batman, Robin, Demon Spawn, and other things you don't understand.

Maybe this was Dick and his friend talking about vigilantes? Though…one of them sounds familiar….

Your train of thought is cut off by someone putting their wait on the bed and running their hand through your hair

To distract yourself, you try to recognize the voice the best you can. Could it be Nightwing? Does Dick know him?

A kiss is placed on your forehead before the two people leave the bedroom.

After waiting a couple of moments, you open your eyes and confirm that you’re alone.

You slowly slip out of bed to try to listen to hear more of their conversation.

It seems that they called someone because there are new voices but it isn't that clear

The conversation begins to scare you as they talk about you.

Calling you their sibling/daughter and status on how your injuries were healing

Based on what is being said, you figure out that five vigilantes know quite a bit about you…

Deciding that you’ve had enough, you find a way to sneak out of the apartment

Looking out the window, it looks like you're a few floors high.

You carefully open the window as quietly as you can and peek outside to find a fire escape just one window away

You must be lucky because you reach the stairs safely and immediately start going down the stairs

The sun is about to rise and you realize that you don't know where you are

You run around for an unknown amount of time before finding a bus stop

There isn't any money on you so you just pick up a map for the bus route

Looking over the map, you’re able to find a familiar street before finally making it home

It took you a long time to get a new key because you basically had nothing on you but eventually, you were able to finally collapse on your bed

You fall asleep immediately

By the time you wake up, it is night again

Getting up, you start making yourself some food while some research on vigilantes

Focused on finding answers, you’re able to connect the dots on who the vigilantes are based on your information from when you lived in the manor

At some point, a knock is heard from your window

On instinct, you walk over to your window and open your curtains

Seeing Nightwing and his dumb smile fills you with rage. Which you are more than happy to let him know

You close your curtain and can faintly hear Nightwing trying to talk to you from the other side of the window

Well, it seems that you now know their identity

Jason saw and heard you run off. He and Dick were about to follow but Bruce told them to not follow you

The next night, Jason watch you reject Dick as he tried to pretend last night didn’t even happen

But it seems you weren’t having any of it

Dick returns to Jason, dejected

A new plan would have to be made, and Tim knows exactly how to get back on track

Is that @madeimpact at the Summer Sunset Festival?

“I bought the most delicious cookies at the farmer’s market! Wanna try one?” froooooom Prompto!

The word 'cookies' has barely had enough time to leave Prompto's mouth before Gold nyooms over to him in an instant, his sleeves pressed up against his own face as he tries to sneak a look. "W-what kind?" He floats around Prompto's shoulders excitedly, the ends of his sleeves beginning to flap. "Can I see?"

It's true that he can't really taste anymore, for obvious reasons, but that doesn't mean he can't enjoy a delicious cookie! Maybe it's got chunks of something, or it's bright and colorful. He likes textural interest.

Eventually, he floats back in front of Prompto, his sockets getting big and wide... and glistening?

"Pleeeeaaaase?"

[thclastlight]

"Sunset," Scarlett repeated, shooting a glance to the girl to smile at her, a strained smile but it was the best she could give at the current moment, "that is beautiful. It suits you." Her fingers tightened as someone else brushed into her shoulder, nearly knocking her grip from the younger woman's. She was beginning to remember the way she'd come in, doing a near 180 in the path she'd been making, tugging Sunset with her. She felt she had to keep the conversation going, the last thing either of them needed was to have a full-blown panic attack in the midst of the chaos. "I'm Scarlett. Are you from town?"

sunset kept looking back at the bonfire with all the screaming, so afraid of it yet the urge to just stand there and helplessly watch as people offered themselves to the fire was taking over her. the only thing that has been keeping her feet moving is the older woman, the gentleness yet also firmness of how she was trying to make sure they get out safely. "sunset--my name's sunset." she blinked a couple of times to snap herself out of the trance, looking at scarlett. swarms of people kept coming from different direction, and it was getting harder to hold on to the other, her grip starting to loosen regardless of how scarlett was holding on to her.
