friend got me thinking about my fanon grandma leveilleur (aka louisoix’s unnamed wife) again!!! [ #šŸ“ ]

"I think I love you." Louisoix says, his voice low as his fingers caressed at Leota's skin.

She is silent for a moment, frozen at his words. She's heard it before from all sorts. In the throes of passion and in the quiet moments afterwards. It never meant much, nothing more than a passing statement that revealed far more about the person she slept with than the actual feelings they held for her.

"You love the idea of me, Lou." She corrects, his name shortened for comfort on her Limsan tongue, slipping unwillingly from her lips.

"It could be both." He replied.

"You think that a compliment?" She questions, rolling from his soft embrace as her feet touched the rickety wooden floors of her bedroom.

He doesn't chase her. He knows better and opts to wait, adjusting to a seated position against the wall.

"You don't love me. You love how I make you feel free." She continues. "I may not have endless coin or a fancy education, but I'm free to be whoever I want to be." Her voice is steady, her gaze distinctly focused outside her window. She can feel the way his body moves as he nods along with her words."Can I not love both?" Is his only rebuttal. "I could be a good man to you if you'd let me. I would take you anywhere—" He is cut off with a
slow turn of her body.

"I wouldn't be a good woman to you." It's not sharp. It's distinctly clear, devoid of any misunderstanding. "I'm not like those Sharlayan ladies. I don't pick out pretty flowers for around the house or make polite conversations with stuffed up arseholes at banquets." She continues, her eyes on his own.

"And what would you say if I asked you to marry me anyways?" He questions, his voice mirroring her own. She huffs out sometimes that could only be categorized as indignant despite the way she feels her heart leap in her chest.

"I'd say you were idiot." She replies quickly, shifting to her knees as she pokes her finger against the Archon Mark on his forehead. "It wouldn't be surprising, considering you let yourself be branded." Her words are lighter, and he can't help the smile that languidly pulls on his lips."A brand, as you call it, on my forehead isn't anything compared to the brand you've made on my heart. Intentional or otherwise." He leans in closer to her, their breaths intertwining.

"Marry me, Leota." He whispers against her lips

"You'll get on that ship back home to Sharlayan tomorrow and forget all about me." She replies

"And if I don't?" He challenges, pulling her closer to him. She doesn't object, wrapping her arms around him. She pressed her lips against his own, impatient and unavoidably drawn to him.

When they pull apart for air, she looks him in the eyes. Those pure white eyes, the color of sea foam

"I'll consider it." She replies before pushing him down into the mattress, their last evening together still young.

A screenshot of a fanfiction on AO3. 

Title: shadowed by my past 
Author: steamingcupoftea

Summary:
G'raha could still see the vision of the Warrior of Light's hand in his own – fingers bent at wrong angles and sticky and warm with blood, but trying so hard to use G'raha as a grounding force.

And G'raha couldn't help the way his mind flashed through memories – the two of them walking hand in hand through the Crystarium, of him leading his partner by the hand showing him the streets of Sharlayan, of the Exarch gripping his hand tight one last time and pressing a kiss to scarred knuckles before letting go.

This was far from the first time he gripped his partner's hand like like a lifeline, even if for just a moment. He knew what it was like to want to keep holding on, to never want to let go. Letting go felt like accepting death itself, so the Exarch had pushed through pain of a different kind to just hold on for a moment longer, to seek comfort out of the Warrior for another breath before he let go so the crystal could take hold. His own final moments of pure white hot agony before the numbness took over and his very being was snuffed out.

#AutumnRepost: Break

Nobody can distract a hyperfocused scholar quite like somebody who is just as prone to it himself. šŸ˜„

B’alith’s attention drifted back to the book in front of him. He flipped through a few more pages, frowned, worried at his lower lip as he cross-referenced another appendix in a second volume before scribbling down some notes to himself in a third. He was so close to a breakthrough of some sort, he was sure of it, but the pieces were stubbornly refusing to fall into place.

His writing faltered mid-sentence when G’raha rubbed a thumb along the trail of short, soft fur that crept up from the waistband of his trousers and marked the place where lower back turned into upper tail. ā€œDo you want to take a break? Look at this again later with fresh eyes?ā€

ā€œNo, what I want is to figure out what this historian meant when they saidā€”ā€

ā€œB’alith.ā€ G’raha’s voice had gone low and authoritative in the way that always made him a little weak in the knees. He let his hands slide from B’alith’s waist to brace against the edge of the desk as he shifted closer, before leaning down to murmur into his ear, ā€œWhat this historian means is: this is a seduction. I am trying to seduce you, in case you failed to notice.ā€

Day 3: In/Out of Trouble

Some Stormblood fic of Gwen freaking out about Farim being in trouble :D

Title: love isn't rescue, it's someone to lose
Author: steamingcupoftea
Summary: 
The explosions echoed across the desert and immediately Gwen felt like she couldn’t breathe as a single thought screamed in her mind.

Farim.

Farim had insisted on going off with Alphinaud and Lyse and M’naago, leaving her behind with Alisaie. He’d brushed it off as her needing her rest, not wanting to bother her, but she knew it wasn’t just that. She knew that it was easier for him to go off healing people on the battlefield than it was for him to look her in the eyes.

But now he was in the middle of where the cannons were firing, in the middle of the carnage. Gwen had never been a great student in school, but she didn’t have to be, not when all the people involved were her dad’s friends, her family. She knew it’d been close, but Alphinaud and Lyse had lived through the war with Garlemald. But Farim wasn’t supposed to be there. Neither of them were.

There would be many raised eyebrows all around since Celestaux is not usually big on pda. Foulques would definitely pause for a moment but then be so pleased, very cat who got the cream. G'raha also would pause (maybe a small oof) but then refuses to let Celestaux leave

a snippet from the linked chapter. it reads:

Steph smiles. He hums a little tune as he turns the page, a bawdry bar song that Artoirel has been subjected to a few times in Manufactory outings.

Despite the many boons of this year, things have gone quite poorly as of late.

Stephanivien snorts. Perhaps some advice is needed. Emm must’ve been embarassed, scratching out a few words before continuing with-

They tell me Sicard is dead.

Title: battle scars
Author: steamingcupoftea
Summary: 
He tried to shape out the words, but his mouth felt wrong. His tongue. How he hadn’t noticed it until then, he didn’t know, but this unfamiliar body lacked a tongue.

He could cry out, but he wouldn’t be able to say anything intelligible – and maybe that was by design. Maybe this had been Fandaniel’s plan all along, to drop him just far enough away that he’d never be able to make it in time and take away the only other way he’d be able to stop them. To force him to watch his own body-

No, he couldn’t think about that.

Title: you call the shots, babe
Author: steamingcupoftea
Summary:
"With all your other talents among weapons, have you ever considered learnin' how to use one of these?" Leofard asked as he cleaned his gun in his chambers, which had Gwen immediately bark out an incredibly undignified laugh.

"I'll have you know I'd been on my way to the machinists' guild when a merchant asked me to deal with some sky pirates," she said, crossing her arms over her chest as she looked back over at him.
