Hello! This is my fic archive, aka dumping grounds, for

lavendre . I've got fic scattered across the interwebs. Currently, this journal is the most up-to-date archive I have. Things these days get posted here before they go anywhere else and my fandom tags are the best way to navigate. Some writing is access only, subject to what I feel like sharing. Some ficlets are not great quality and some things are incomplete projects -- posted because I found them appealing/amusing and/or to serve as a reminder to someday come back and finish them. Official disclaimer: don't expect anything and you won't be disappointed. I mostly write for me these days.

If you recognize something here from another archive, assume that is the final version (AO3, FFN, etc). Writing from 2013 and earlier can be found at FFN (a lot of it has not been cross posted here -- why you would you torture yourself with this anyway).

Feel free to un/subscribe as you please~

Title: that trembled and reel’d beneath me
Fandom: Final Fantasy XVI
Characters/pairing: Dion/Terence
Rating: explicit
Word Count: 11,780

Notes: This fic includes sex pollen, fuck or die, dubious consent, repression, and sexual dysfunction (blah blah blah). Set pre-game and a month pre-confession. Dion wants that which he should not have, but Terence doesn't make it easy to turn away. Title from a Walt Whitman poem. "...A thick gloom fell through the sunshine and darken'd me; Must I change my triumphant songs? said I to my- self; Must I indeed learn to chant the cold dirges of the baf- fled? And sullen hymns of defeat?"

( The embankment is slick under Terence’s boots and he steps sideways through plaited fields to watch the sky lighten. )

Current Mood: busy

Title: stale air blows through
Fandom: Final Fantasy XVI
Character/pairing: Benedikta
Fanmix! Listen here.

Notes: Tunes for the woman who got it all wrong.

A collection of FFXVI ficlets below for

threesentenceficathon. There will definitely be more, these are so pleasant to write.

Characters/pairing: Anabella, Dion/Terence, Jill/Clive/Cid, Clive/Joshua, and Dion & Olivier.
Rating(s) and warning(s): gen, canon-typical violence, and incest.

( Joshua does not know if he wants Clive, or if he wants to be him. )

Title: We Covet all the Waning Hours
Fandom: Final Fantasy XVI
Characters/pairing: Dion/Terence
Rating: gen
Word Count: 1365

Notes: For the 25daysofteredio on Bluesky, a little advent calendar prompt count down. Peace was inspired by this Walt Whitman poem, and Love pulls from a quote in Ursula K. Le Guin's The Lathe of Heaven. Title comes from Neko Case's Tightly.

( Terence is a perennial companion and only slips in closer. )

Title: her held eye did turn
Fandom: Final Fantasy XVI
Characters/pairing: Pre-Jill/Clive, Cid
Rating: gen
Word Count: 1000

Notes: A rewrite of an earlier summer work. I like this much more now. Old version left for funsies. Jill tries to understand that desire which is hard to name.

( Cid, their modest hero in all but name, only fiddles with his smokes. )

Title: force passing through
Fandom: Final Fantasy XVI
Characters/pairing: Jill & Cid
Rating: gen
Word Count: 951
Notes: In the church above Moore, Jill tries to understand something still out of reach.

( The gate is open when Jill reaches the top of the hill. )

Title: to meet my destiny
Fandom: Final Fantasy XVI
Characters/pairing: Terence
Fanmix! Listen here.

Notes: Some tunes for a loyal servant turned knight and love.

( annotations )

Title: Spirits Whose Work Is Done
Fandom: Final Fantasy XVI
Characters/pairing: Byron/Havel, Quinten
Rating: M
Word Count: 2349
Notes: This was almost a polycule! Re: Triunity Accord was just a marriage pact in disguise. Title is a Walt Whitman poem.

( How lucky it is that Clive should bring him the greatest company among men, even if it means Byron must always be the extra actor. )

Title: Undertow
Fandom: Final Fantasy XVI
Characters/pairing: Dion & Jill
Rating: gen
Word Count: 1654

Notes: More Dion and Jill interactions, written for

ffprompts . Can additionally be read as a follow up piece to Visiting Statues.

( It's not a question of strength, but means. )

Title: Staying.
Fandom: Final Fantasy XVI
Characters/pairing: Kihel & Terence
Fanmix! Listen here.

Notes: Some elegiac tunes for two people burning out in a dying world (and the shadow of the one who brought them together).

Annotations and tracklist below the cut.

Title: Curses
Fandom: Final Fantasy XVI
Characters/pairing: Clive/Charon
Rating: gen
Word Count: 702

Notes: Prompt fill for this FF Kiss Battle prompt.

( pillowtalk )

Title: Overthrown
Fandom: Final Fantasy XVI
Characters/pairing: Dion/Terence
Rating: M
Word Count: 1805

Notes: Dion and Terence play strip chess, but only one player is following the rules. Some light-hearted fun.

( 'I believe you are up to foul play,' Dion says. )

Title: This Shame Should Not Be Mine
Fandom: Final Fantasy XVI
Characters/pairing: Jill Warrick
Fanmix! Listen here.

Notes: A character mix for Jill, with a focus on female vocalists and melodic tunes.

Annotations and tracklist below the cut.

( tunes )

any, any, even if it feels endless and impossible from the middle

( Jill & Cid, problem solving )

Title: Unraveling
Fandom: Final Fantasy XVI
Characters/pairing: Dion/Terence
Rating: gen, canon-typical violence
Word Count: 2423

Notes: During Belenus Tor and Bahamut's first clash with Odin, Terence keeps his priorities in line, even if he would like to do otherwise. Pining, mentions of death in wartime, and a brief foray into the Ultimania confession scene. A bit of a character study.

( His enemies belong to spectacle, and Terence’s strength is elsewhere. He is human, and Dion is — magnificent. And he knows greater pain. But still: Terence aches. )

Title: Event Horizon
Fandom: Tales of Zestiria/Berseria
Characters/pairing: Edna + Eizen
Rating: gen
Word Count: 200

Notes: Written for the winter round of

seasonsofdrabbles.

( It's a long walk to the top of the Spirit Crest. )

Title: Idée Fixe
Fandom: Final Fantasy XVI
Characters/pairing: Dion/Terence
Rating: explicit
Word Count: 4991

Notes:

candyheartsex fic written for

eggsbenedict. Dion tanks. Lots of poetic edda, oops. Also: desk sex.

( Dion must not always defend him, but he wants to. )

Title: Endurance Mechanics
Fandom: Final Fantasy XVI
Characters/pairing: Dion & Mid
Rating: gen
Word Count: 2022

Notes: Inspired by Mid's final questline and this dialogue in question. I think Mid would very much like to put Dion under a microscope and poke him a little.

( Dion understands why the children who have flown past him during his solemn and lonely watch had called it a dungeon. It's not where one would go to visit without wanting something first. )

I've slowly been filling prompts for the

threesentenceficathon when I have time! Three below. These are fun.

( Dion, family secrets )

( Dion/Terence, I never promised you a rose garden )

( Joshua, it sucks to be the chosen one )
