#FFXIVwrite2026 day 21: better late than never 🌸

in which the warrior of light accidentally finds out about the betting pool (and the cat's out of the bag because the two of them couldn't be subtle if their lives depended on it).

ellipsus screenshot, part 1 it reads: Even despite entering the room together, she still drifts to his side. Unnecessarily close to him, maybe, but she's of no mind to do anything else. Mere moments after they settle, Alisaie is midway through opening her mouth to ask why Celie is wearing her unglamoured combat gear today when the Veena looks up and happens to meet gazes with a smirking Y'shtola. The sorceress /snorts/. It's not a sound any of them have heard before, and the speed at which most of the necks in the room whip towards her is downright comical. The look that follows and sends them all turning away again at even greater haste is even more so. She can definitely tell Thancred knows (if simply going by the smirk on his face), but he also knows that he'd regret any comments he might make, so he keeps his mouth shut. Even Krile's /'Good morning, Raha,'/ had been with a small smirk.ellipsus screenshot, part 2 it reads: /I guess it's past wondering how obvious we were being./ She's mortified anyways. "About godsdamned time," Estinien says from beside her, smirking at her from their places amongst the group. "No offense, but the pair of you were annoying the piss out of me." He means well and she knows it from the tone of his voice. "Shut up," Celie grumbles, though not without whacking him on the arm lightly for good measure. "Let's just get on with the meeting, please." Y'shtola presses, huffing. "We can gossip about… /personal developments/ later."ellipsus screenshot, part 3 it reads: "I think someone's just sour about losing the betting pool," Estinien says under his breath likely intended to not be heard, but Celie's ear twitches towards him and he winces. Her eyes glance towards him, head turning just slightly. "The what." "Sorry, not mine. For that, you'll have to ask the Mistress Baldesion." He states, trying to absolve all responsibility. "Oh, we'll discuss this later," Celie says to him sweetly before turning her attention back to the group, and for the first time since they'd met, he thinks she actually might try to hurt him this time were she to clobber him upside the head with her new crook.

#FFXIVwrite2026 day 20 (17, actually): fret ✨🌸

when you've both through a lot, there's something very uniquely rewarding about well-deserved peace and certain specific kinds of comfort.

ellipsus screenshot, pt 1 it reads: She's content just to hold him for a while, eventually pulling back only the barest few ilms to fret over him a bit, brushing some strands away from his face lovingly for a moment so she might look into both his eyes. He'd fantasized about exactly this sort of moment more than once after all, and he easily finds himself falling a little deeper as she absentmindedly runs her fingers through his hair. He could fall asleep like this, and he's almost tempted to do so. She leans over and her lips brush his forehead, her hand absentmindedly reaching to pet his ear before she halts as if remembering that the act was likely something she should receive permission for, and not just doing it. She'd do the same for any of the other miqo'te she knew after all, not to mention that outside of maybe having to touch his ears to heal an injury, this is an entirely selfish desire of hers. "Oh. May I?" She asks, fingertips shaking as much as her voice as they brush the edge of one.ellipsus screenshot, pt 2 it reads: His face turns hot. "Ah… yes, please." He wants to think his voice doesn't squeak slightly when he says it, that he doesn't sound too desperate, but he knows she'll be mindful that they're sensitive. She nods, and he rests his head back against her collarbone. Her touch is feather-soft and the moment her thumb gingerly begins to rub small circles into his ear, he melts into her touch. It doesn't take long until she finds them. She touches the slight dip in his fur, finds the part underneath that yet hurts a little, the skin still a bit raw. She pulls back slightly, looking at him in concern. "What happened?" "… I'd been in the habit of fastening them down for a time." He pauses, as if he's afraid to admit what he says next. "As how I bound my tail. I… I couldn't risk giving myself away."ellipsus screenshot, pt 3 it reads: Her brow knits in the middle and she sucks in a harsh breath. She tugs him close to her once more and channels the slightest bit of restorative aether, just enough that she's comfortable with until the skin she can see on his ears isn't quite so irritated, and then rubs them again. He sighs out in bliss and she can't help but smile. She wonders if it's the same satisfying feeling she gets from massaging the ache from her scalp when taking her hair down after a long day. "Please don't anymore," she says. She knows she sounds meek, but the thought of the pain she knows it must have caused him makes her heart ache. "I won't." He says it like a promise, melting into her touch and bumping his forehead against her. /This/ action she knows, and she nuzzles her chin and nose into his hair in return. /Isn't this bliss?/ The voice in her head whispers. This time, she agrees.

With one world's end does a new begin. ✨

| or, a quiet moment shared after victory, spent only in the company of one another and ever-racing heartbeats.

A simple gpose done showing the user's Warrior of Light (a dark-haired, simply-dressed Veena Viera) and the Crystal Exarch. They are in her Pendants apartment in one of the corners by the window. The night sky can be seen clearly outside. It's the night after Emet-Selch's defeat, and while the celebrations likely still linger across the Shard, they clearly left the party a while ago. The apartment appears very well-lived-in, the corner itself made up more like a burrow or nest and decked out with a blanket, cushions, stuffed toys, scattered and stacked tomes and other miscellany. Plants and lanterns hang from the walls, providing soft blues and pinks to illuminate them since the lights in the room itself are off. (None of the decor is "renter-friendly" and she definitely got away with more than she should have in the process of decorating this space, not that he would have stopped her anyways lol.) He is sitting with her in the little floor nest with his back against the cushions, relaxed and comfortably stretched out holding her in his arms where she rests propped up against him. Her hand is on his chest, her eyes closed in contentment. Two steaming cups of tea and an open book sit on the sill off behind him as though they'd made an effort to read something together, but decided to cuddle instead.
