    Summary

    October 31st, 2037. A stage director is found dead on the opening night of her debut play, an adaptation of Dracula, and one Soma Cruz is arrested for her murder. Phoenix and Maya are his only hope for freedom. But no one is telling the truth, and in the background lurk forces darker than most would expect.

    Harder to prove in court, too.

    Summary

    A mere month before the royal tour- in which the crown princess of Khura'in will visit each of the seven realms before she ascends to the throne- Nahyuta Sahdmadhi, royal regent, has a problem. The princess, already troublesome at the best of times, has become obsessed with tales of the Jackdaw- a notorious outlaw who has taken the realms by storm, his exploits inspiring an entire cottage industry of trashy penny dreaduls.

    Still, so long as Nahyuta can keep the public from finding out that their future queen is a devoted fan of a violent vigilante- in fact, so long as he can avoid the topic of said vigilante altogether- everything should be perfectly fine.

    Avoidance of the Jackdaw, however, is about to become nigh impossible.

    Summary

    You have to be in control, Vanitas,” Master Eraqus had said, three years ago now, eyes stony with seriousness. “You can never, ever let your heart run wild.

    The boy beams wide. His cheeks are ruddy with a youthful vigor that Vanitas lacks, and his green eyes sparkle like gems. There’s something bright, about his eyes, about his teeth. Like they’re backlit by the setting sun, just enough to make them gleam.

    Blonde hair bounces as he sticks his hand out to shake. “I’m Ventus!”

    Or: when the boy originally called Ventus was split, Xehanort left a comatose Dark Heart in the Land of Departure, and trained his newest Light to be a weapon of the Dark. Ventus-Vanitas roleswap.

    Summary

    Even though the team has escaped Midgar, they're now on the run from Shinra, the Turks, and their pasts ... but unfortunately, the past has a way of catching up to them.

    Meanwhile, the SOLDIER program is failing. Shinra is under new leadership, Hojo is missing, and robed figures are being spotted across the continent, all mindlessly wandering towards some unknown destination. Where did they come from? What is happening to the SOLDIERs? And--more worryingly--what is this 'Reunion' that the figures occasionally groan?

    --

    Chasing Shadows is the second installment of the Reunion Cycle series, so I strongly recommend reading Halcyon Days first if you haven't already 🌸

    Summary

    The story of FF7 if Zack lived.

    Shortly after being ambushed outside of Midgar, Zack and Cloud were separated: Zack remained under Turk care, while Cloud - confused from mako poisoning - went missing somewhere on the streets of Midgar. Now Zack has to somehow find his best friend before Shinra and Hojo can, not to mention that he has to stay under the radar himself - but with the Turks keeping secrets from him, and with so many reminders of his previous four years of being a lab experiment, staying anonymous is becoming more and more difficult.

    Meanwhile, Cloud has literally stumbled into Tifa's care. Given his mako-enhanced eyes, it doesn't take long for him to be recruited into Avalanche... but it's quickly becoming apparent that he's not the strong, sturdy SOLDIER that he'd like everyone to think. His memories are disjointed and his mind feels foggy, to the point that it becomes difficult to tell what's real and what's not. But Tifa needs him. He made a promise to her after all, and he intends to keep that promise... no matter what it takes.

    Summary

    In the months following Snake's final mission, he lives life to the fullest until his body can't keep up with him anymore. Wasting away in a Manhattan apartment, watching Otacon's mental state deteriorate day by day, it seems like this is simply how their story comes to an end. Unbeknownst to him, Otacon isn't ready to give up—and neither is Sunny.

    Persuaded to try experimental gene therapy far away from home, Snake finds himself realizing just how much he's been willfully ignoring about those closest to him... and just how much he will lose, if this doesn't work.

    Summary

    Here’s how shit was supposed to play out:

    Ingerlund ditches Du Bois. Du Bois tanks. Du Bois meets Vicquemare. Vicquemare tanks. Vicquemare ditches Du Bois. Vicquemare gets better. Du Bois heals, or doesn’t, or moves to Graad, or paints an exterior with his interior, some Saturday evening, when the wind smells of ice. Anyway it’s not Jean’s problem.

    Instead, here’s how it’s gone:

    Harry, one month sober. Harry’s hundred days. Harry’s brand-new optimism. Harry’s brand-new partner.

    Summary

    Do you think about countries outside of Revachol and start to cry? Do you read fanfiction and see a bit of worldbuilding and wonder if it’s canon or not? Do you go onto FAYDE and see a line and go “how do you even get that line was that true the whole time?” Do you not know how much of Elysium is Fantasy France and you’re too afraid to ask? Well have I got the fic for you!
    The worldbuilding of Elysium is complicated, detailed, and often hidden behind skill checks. It is precise and vague and subjective and overwhelming, just like real life. This atlas hopes to streamline and organize the traditional FAYDE search process, clarify details, and note when the real world influences are notable and draw upon that. And wrap it all up in a colloquial bow because otherwise it’d be impossible for me to read my own work without my brain glazing over.

    Complete with aside breakdowns from the author over subjects such as “oh my god a dormant volcano is taller than two Everests”, “what the fuck is up with tzaraath that’s not how prion diseases work what the fuck”, and “why do I have to learn about time!”

    Summary

    -

    Perhaps it was a similar reason why Lady named her rocket launcher the Kalina Ann - why she gave it to Dante to kill her father with. Humans are awfully sentimental.

    It wasn’t normal to show sentiment in this way, but humans were far more complex than they appeared at first glance, and their emotions manifested themselves in the strangest ways. Though Trish’s reference for humans was skewed. Dante was half-demon himself, and Lady was…

    Well, Lady was Lady.

    She was the only full-human of the three and yet she acted the least human out of all of them. She hardly slept, hardly rested, had a diet almost as bad as Dante; and yet she never gave anything less than her all while hunting demons, running on nothing but gunpowder and sheer glee.

    Lady has always been different.

    Summary

    Retirement is not a bad thing, Morrison thinks. No more dingy motels, no more fighting the clients for payment, and, most importantly, no more clawing, biting, screeching demons in his closest proximity.

    All that's standing between him and the sweet, sweet life of smoking cigars by the fireplace is one, last job, and a certain suspicious, white-haired kid.

    No big deal, right?

    ---

    Or, the one in which Morrison just wants to have some goddamn peace for once in his lifetime, and the universe is hellbent on not letting it happen.

    Technically a prequel to 'Nesting Birds', but stands entirely on its own.
