War on Love (Masterpost)

This will be the masterpost for all information about the discontinued fic War on Love. Obviously, heavy spoilers ahead, so please read at your own discretion. Content warnings will be listed at the beginning of every individual post, for best accuracy.

I got some dm's and asks here and there regarding War on Love, my ZAGR fic from 2013 that sort of died before it really picked up into the interesting bits. So, for the curious, and so that I can direct future inquirers to their answers, here's a masterpost which will include details of the plot, screenshots of some of the writing (for context), relevant musical tracks, etc.

I go back and forth on whether or not I'd ever completely publish the works, whether I'd publish them as-is with no context, whether I'd write them like some of my other short fics like That Thing on Your Wrist that just sort of jump between important events with brief transitional summaries, or leave it dead. So while there's a possibility it may finish in some way or another, for those who'd rather not wait to find out, this is the place for you.

FFXIV OC Masterpost

Corrain Gealai de Fortemps

(ffxiv screencap, art by @/aazulean, art by @/minpage)

Age: 16 (ARR start), 22 (EW end), 24 (DT start)

Race: Keeper of the Moon Miqo'te

Gender: trans man

Sexuality: gay, polyamorous

Primary role: (the) Warrior of Light/Azem shard, lead OC

Primary ships: emetwolraha, azemet-by-proxy

Unsundered name: Helios

Character intro link: PENDING, intro game link here, WoL Template link here

Various AUs

Soulshards - Solo Warrior of Light universe. Not cowritten

your boldness stands alone among the wreck - AU in which Corrain is co-WoLs with @azems-familiar's Lelesu Lesu, and is a shard of Helios, the man who was once Azem.

in the shadow of the sun - Ascian Azem AU. In which it is @azems-familiar's Seleukos who becomes Azem, and Helios perishes in the Final Days. Corrain is reborn thirteen thousand years later- and Azem cannot stay away from the fragments of their best friend.

Inara Oronir Dotharl

Age: 25 (ARR start), 31 (EW end), 33 (DT start)

Race: Xaela Au'ra

Gender: cisgender, butch

Sexuality: lesbian

Primary role: Scion of the Seventh Dawn, Mercenary

Primary ships: Sadu, Cirina, and @azems-familiar's Yesuntei

Unsundered name: pending

Character intro link: here

Inara is a mercenary from the Steppe who possesses the Echo, and plays a supporting role in all of Corrain's (and Lelesu's) various AUs, though her role rarely changes. Originally a member of the Oronir tribe, she runs away to prove herself, and ends up working with the Scions of the Seventh Dawn until she (and Yesuntei) win the Naadam for the Mol, and she marries Sadu (and Cirina and Yesuntei).

Fraegeim Hezzfyrwyn

Age: 29

Race: Galdjent

Gender: cisgender

Sexuality: lesbian

Primary role: Warrior of Light of the First/Thirteenth (AU dependent)

Primary ships: N/A. Renda Rae, but never acted upon

Unsundered name: Helios

Character intro link: PENDING

Fraegeim is one of the fourteen disparate shards that Helios became after the Sundering, but her world of origin varies by AU. While she is always a shard of Corrain, and thus shares many personality traits with him- such as a love of mischief and laughter, a too-quick temper, and a childlike awe for the world in which she lives - whether or not she hails from the First or Thirteenth varies based on whether or not the AU is shared with Lelesu or Seleukos, mentioned above. When it is shared- she is Corrain's matching shard from the First (as Ardbert is Lelesu's matching shard). When he is the only WoL, she hails from the Thirteenth, and was slain much like Golbez was, after succumbing to Darkness.

Syewell Denman

Age: 39 (ARR Start)

Race: Hyur, Highlander

Gender: bigender, uses all pronouns

Sexuality: queer (otherwise undefined)

Primary role: Ala Mhigan refugee, companion and check on the Warrior of Light (possesses the Echo)

Primary ships: Elidibus (and Elidibus/Asklepios)

Unsundered name: Asklepios

Character into link: PENDING

FFXIV Glamtober Master Post

lol, I'm late to making a master post. Probably because I don't plan on doing all the prompts. I only found out about Glamtober like a few days before it started and I was eyeballs deep in FFXIV Write 2024. Which was fun but I'm very tired from it. So I'm doing the prompts that jump out at me, not issuing a personal challenge to myself to do all of them. I'm just going to enjoy myself this month and see what prompts I can come up with a bit for.

On the Road - Aldenard - Tank - At Home - Winter - Melee - Cowboy - Spring - Ranged - Sweet and Spicy - Nerfpunk - Tural - Another Time - Another World - Ball - Healer - Borrowed Clothes - Hand - Divine - Moon - Vibrant - Monochrome - Supernatural

FFXIVWrite 2024- Candle Masterpost

*Heavy breathing* I will do it. This is the first I'm participating. Hi I'm Candle a gpose fic writer, and English is not my native language. Crepuscule a Wol & OT3 gpose fic started in 2022 is my long and current writing project.

Today I want to give myself the opportunity to express myself in a different way, to get out of my comfort zone and let my words flow. So here i am.

I can't promise I'll do all the prompt, no, I'll only create when my soul start dancing to the sound of the day's theme. I'll update this post and repost it with every new creation.

Thanks for reading me.

FFXIVWrite 2023 Finished Masterpost

I originally had a masterpost for the month that I sporadically updated as it went, but now that its finished, my pre-month ramblings about hoping I could do well to keep up didn't fit anymore for a finished masterpost, and I had enough pieces to fit into nice categories for presentation that I figured it'd be better to make a new masterpost for a cleaner layout.

In a surprising and unintended turn, a lot of the stories I wrote had an underlying theme of first meetings and impressions. A lot of that probably furthered by the Yuri mini-collection, but even before then, quite a few had that style to them.

19 works overall, especially since for much of this month, time wasn't on my side and I couldn't write for as many prompts as I would've liked. But I'm very proud of what I did manage and what I was able to achieve.

Thank you for reading, whether you read one or all.

Yuri's saga (Post-Endwalker) Set after Endwalker, this mini-collection focused on my second character Yuri Sakuraba as she joins the Students and settles in, getting used to a new city, new duties and meets the Scions, in preparation for her potentially joining them in Dawntrail.

Workload - (Krile and G'raha recieve some help with their backlog, while their aid has a request of his own) Portentous - (A new arrival to Sharlayan isn’t too keen on the city) Fish out of Water - (Yuri is struggling to settle in) Noisome - (Yuri has an unfortunate encounter with a morbol) Blunt - (What few tales Fhara has told Yuri of the Scions has left her with a bad first impression of someone) Contravention - (Yuri needs some help getting some reading material from the restricted section, and thankfully someone is here to help) Amity - (Fhara is reunited with her closest and most darling friends, and Yuri gets to meet the pair that have left the biggest impression on her new mentor)

Twins! I wrote a lot of twin focused pieces... Generally if they were the main focus or heavily involved, then those stories are in this list.

Off the Hook - (At the end of 3.4, the twins talk about how they’ve seen the other change since they last met) Ring - (Alisaie finds her brother asleep in the Stones) Fair - (Early EndW, Alisaie and Thancred talk about his time spent with her family) Weal - (A pair of new parents discuss the future for their little ones in a new home) Fulsome - (Alphinaud is unimpressed by Eulmore’s flashy displays of wealth) Suit - (Early Endw, Alphinaud training with his new powers) Last - (Fhara invites the twins home to meet her mother)

Misc Anything that doesn't fit the first two categories, which in this case seems to be anything that actually focused on my main WoL, Fhara

Envoy - (Early ARR, Fhara rushes home to tell her mother the good news) Shed - (Post-ShB, Ryne’s duties take her to Fanow, where she finds the world may be changing and recovering in its own way) Clear - (Post-In From the Cold duty reaction. Fhara’s feeling rather out of it) Call it a Day - (EndW finale; when all is said and done, now we can go home) Sole - (Lv86-87 EndW msq; a little bluebird is happy to find she's not the only one)

No Strings Attached (masterpost)

Astrid DeGlass has always been able to keep her cards close to her chest. But when a routine assignment inadvertently drags one of her greatest secrets out into the open, the Sharlayan politician must deal with a heartbreak that never fully healed.

Gaius Baelsar is no longer the Black Wolf.  His homeland is in ruins, and every day he must deal with the consequences of his once-ruthless quest for power.  His life of self-exile and his past come crashing together once more when an old flame he never got over reappears.

And while we could tell you that this is a soft and fluffy tale of long-lost love given a second chance...

No. 

He was a bastard, she was a bitch, they hate fucked each other’s brains out and attempted to ignore the Feelings until one ran away and the other decided world domination was an acceptable alternative.

And now they’re reunited.

Also those Feelings?  They never went away.

(Astrid put down the fucking knife)

Did we also mention that Astrid’s granddaughter is the Warrior of Light?

This can only go well, right?

Presenting No Strings Attached, in which my FC decided to choose violence and jumped onto the bandwagon of the Worst Couple in Eorzea Ever and I got bitten by the fucking brainworm and now type this out for their amusement and to make the brainworms shut the hell up.

(me when this fucking fanfiction got enabled.  I hate (affectionately) you all and I’m plotting revenge)

The World Unsundered

Back to the Masterpost

Millenia ago, when Etheriys was still one, two siblings rose to the First and Fourteenth seats of the Amaurotine Convocation:

The younger, Themis, formerly employed by the Words of Pashtarot, joined the Convocation as Elidibus, the Emissary. He was known to be inscrutable, but always fair and wise beyond his years and thus a sound choice for the position. For all his quirks, his boundless patience made sense when considering his sister.

The elder, Theia, was part of the Words of Emmerololth. She worked primarily in creating familiars with the capacity to heal, such as the fey-like beings Eos and Selene. However, when left to her own devices, her experiments often led to "but what if we gave it more aether". Several such experiments were later confined to Lahabrea's Pandaemonium for further research.

One day, the current Azem asked for an assistant skilled in healing. Theia volunteered for the task, and the two found a kindred spirit in one another. Theia longed to travel and joined Azem on several excursions after.

Eventually, Azem decided to cede her position and once again take the name Venat. She recommended Theia take her place, and Theia rose to the Fourteenth Seat, taking the title of the Traveler, Azem, and joining her brother on the Convocation.

There, she met Emet-Selch and his partner, Hythlodaeus. Hythlodaeus and Azem became fast friends, to Emet-Selch's chagrin. Theia had met Hythlodaeus at a distance, having submitted several concepts to the Bureau, but the opportunity to meet and interact regularly with both men resulted in Azem becoming attached to them. In time, the three would become inseparable, even as Azem traveled the star.

One day, a strange familiar that seemed to be one of Azem's appeared in Elpis. The familiar, claiming to be from the far future, warned of an apocalypse soon to come. The former Azem, Venat, met the familiar and put in place a plan to sunder the world into fourteen shards, creating the means for people in the future to fight back against the postponed Final Days.

After the familiar's departure, Venat met with Azem and shared the story. Azem, in her own way, prepared for the impending doom. Though her soul would be diminished after the sundering, surely she would still want for means to travel—even across the rift.

When the Final Days arrived, Azem left the Convocation in protest of their actions. She claimed to seek another way to save their star, but she knew the truth—their salvation would only come in a far off time, their world entrusted to her "familiar".

[amyisherenowitsokay]

claps hands together. hi hope you've been well, sorry i haven't asked much. buuuut. I forgot you wrote a thing until lately. :}

War On Love. How would it have continued/ended, what plot beats where there supposed to be if you remember any, etc?

also this'll sound weird, mainly because I can't really explain it and I'm still working thru it, but I wanted to say thanks for writing it? Finding it again and reading through it reminded me of things I had forgotten about myself for a while. Which has really helped from then to now. So, yeah, as silly as it sounds, thank you. :}

Lmao you're never obligated to interact with me homie, dw. Feel free to send me whatever when you're vibing, but don't also feel pressured to engage. You're too kind.

Long answer under the cut

I go back and forth on whether I'll ever update WoL. It just has so many bad connotations and memories for me about the headspace I was in while writing it, and where I was at emotionally, etc. On the other hand, I'm also incredibly proud of some of the insights I wrote about Gaz's perspective, and the overall plot twists and where it was going. I also still have a TON of writing for it still in bits and pieces, both important chunks and unimportant, AND like 4 chapters of the sequel written.

Sometimes I'm like, well, I could sort of finish it in the same style that like That Thing on Your Wrist and What We Become, which are more written in sort of continuous blurbs with gentle transitions and takes occasions to focus on really important scenes. I think with what I have written, it'd be feasible, but that'd also mean taking time away from my more important projects like Dead Weight and Re:MHNY2, so I hesitate to really commit to anything. You are not the first person to ask though, so that may be something I end up doing in the long term. A quick add up of the chunks of the story I have written says I have roughly 53k words of unpublished story for WoL. On the one hand, a shame to go to waste, on the other hand, I'm not really sure how I'd feel emotionally about trying to dig it back. Like I said, I go back and forth. Just for bonus trivia, since I gave the unpublished word count for WoL, it's sequel, which had a pending title of War on Finality, has 25k words written, and about a 2k words worth of ideas that I wrote, but wasn't sold on including.

I super appreciate btw your note about "things I had forgotten about myself for awhile." That really resonated with me. WoL has is a bittersweet for me because while it was my attempt to push through the gross stuff happening during that time period that I hadn't processed yet, I'm still also really proud of the messages I was going to include, some of the plot points I'd come up with, plot parallels, the OC's character development and direction, and how incredibly different it was going to be from anything I'd written at that point. I think it'd probably have ended up being one of my most emotive fics, and definitely with the (initial) darkest ending.

That being said, the plot of WoL definitely is it's own whole ass post, so apologies for not being able to answer immediately, but I genuinely think I'd break the character limit of tumblr if I tried to go into it all here lmao. Also, since it comes up sometimes from other dm's I've gotten, I think the better idea for me to do is make a masterpost about WoL and where it was going, include some screenshot blurbs for context, etc. That might take a few days, but when that posts, I'll reblog this with the link to the masterpost.
