A reflection on #FFxivWrite2026

Mostly? I'm exhausted
Did every prompt day-of, only taking makeup days off. 26 prompts!
(And at least 4 personal pieces on top)

And I definitely have improved a lot for it. Not just writing skill, but my ability to generate and then see through ideas quickly. 1/?

I was going to update my old FFXIV Write thread with the rest of my entries, but given that I fell off of posting them while written, I'll just provide this instead:

#FFxivwrite2026

a snippet from the linked fic. it reads:

Atop the Royal Menagerie, Fandaniel first comes face-to-face with the scions. The bets are off from the first moment they see his borrowed face.

The boy in blue is halted mid-run by a hand on his shoulder from their resident gunbreaker. The twin whispers something to the man, then approaches slowly, both hands in the air.

“Is something the matter?” Fandaniel asks with a smile. “Is there something in my teeth?”

“Please… please give her back.”

Day 19: Liminal (General)

Venat asks Silva what the future is like while they wait for an Eplis researcher to finish their task before speaking with them, only to be interrupted.

Anyway if you’re strapped for time and only want to read one of my #ffxivwrite2026 days, I recommend this one of Mikha and the Tyrant exploring the Underkeep. It’s quite short and rated G.

ffxiv write is over and I had so much fun with it this year 🙂‍↕️❤ I promised myself I would post my stuff out into the wild at least once, so here's my archive up to date with everything I wrote this year! it's very OC-centric, but a few NPCs drop by here and there too.

Prompt #30: Vestige

"Lingering Echoes"

Three different incarnations of the same soul show that the more things change, the more they stay the same.

(I got this in before the deadline, and I'm *stupid* proud of the shenanigans I pulled, here)

@u-andcloud.bsky.socialOct 1, 2026, 4:00 PM

ok a little early but have some numbers~ (I think a lot of my motivation at the end was to be able to complete these charts...)

27 fics, 26,025 words. honestly *much* more complete than I expected. (character distribution is unsurprising.) #ffxivwrite2026

A bar graph showing word count per day, color coded by character. The highest count is over 1600 words on day 18, about Sylvien.A pie chart of word count per focus character. Lysander 44%, Sylvien 38%, Irienne 7%, other 11%A pie chart of fics per character. Lysander 13, 48%; Sylvien 8, 30%; Irienne 3, 11%; other 3, 11%A table with the numbers. Lysander had the highest word count and number of fics, but Sylvien had the highest average word count. 26025 words were written over the month, averaging 963 words a day!

And that’s all the ones I’ve got!! This year I did a ton of writing I think it’s the most consistent I’ve been with a challenge in a while!

I think what let me stick with it was allowing myself to make rough drafts (and I still have ideas for prompts I didn’t get to)

Day 30: Vestige | #ffxivwrite2026
Full version: www.tumblr.com/hopeandduty/...

" 's not hingan I'm afraid. Comes from the Steppe I think. We 'adn't much for Auri in our stores." 

Such a simple act of kindness to nearly move her to tears, and yet Mizuki felt them burn fiercely in her eyes. The weight of the past week came crashing down upon her chest at the sight of these fabrics and it took every ounce of her will to swallow the sob that would claw its way up from her depths. 

"'s alright lass," the sailor said softly. "Yer safe now." 

He did not understand. These kind men thought her a woman fleeing mistreatment; they did not know the truth. If they did they would not be offering her such boons. Doma hunted her, the Garleans hunted her— until the day Mizuki died she would never truly be safe. 

Yet perhaps… that was the answer in and of itself.
