Summary
A huntress comes to Ferndale following rumors of a rampaging dragon, but what she finds is something altogether more incredible.
______________________________________________________________________________________________
“Don’t you have a problem with a rampaging dragon?”
“Nope,” said he with little fuss or fanfare, as toneless as commenting on the chance of rain.
“The palace seemed to think you did. I was sent to remove it,” she pressed as though that might jog his memory. He shrugged and started on the next glass.
“Well, seems to me someone played ye false. No matter to me if ye want to waste yer time lookin’” he remarked. She sat back and eyed him with a frown.
“So, no missing villagers? No mysterious livestock loss, no eerie howls in the night, sending a chill of dread down your spine?” She asked, one brow arched inquiringly.

A Case of Indecency by Cerulean_Snow_Elf (Gaeliceyes) for Nhaamazu
Fandoms: Final Fantasy XIV
01 Aug 2022
Tags
Summary
The warrior of light has saved the star from it's greatest threat and she is determined to finally give her lover Aymeric the vacation he deserves. Too bad she couldn't have anticipated running into one Hildebrand Manderville.
It wasn’t her fault, Fury take it!
The Warrior of Light (and Darkness!), Hero of Eorzea, Bane to villians far and wide, Vanquisher of the Final Days, tried to hold back hysterical laughter as she ran. This was not the relaxing beachside vacation she had hoped for.
It all started innocently enough, just a relaxing few days, just the two of them. Any ensuing chaos was entirely out of her control and she refused to accept responsibility. Refused! Which did not alleviate her guilt at the fact that not only was this trip ruined beyond salvage, but now the Lord Speaker of Ishgard was in grave, ridiculous, danger.

Summary
Aymeric welcomes the Satrap of Thavnair to Ishgard to celebrate Heavensturn, but there is much more to the visit, as Estinien soon discovers.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dearest Satrap,
Our dragoon has only just left to return to you. I believe he meant to tell me about you, but as usual his words were hopelessly locked behind his teeth. Truly, he cannot bear to expose his tender heart. However, it assured me he has not an inkling of our plan. I do not envy your task of telling him of your impending trip, however I find myself eager to see the look on his face when all is revealed. Your accommodations are well prepared and I look forward to finally meeting you face to face this Heavensturn, not to mention the revelries I feel sure will follow.
Very truly yours,
Ser Aymeric de Borel

What’s in a Date: A Valentione’s Tale by Cerulean_Snow_Elf (Gaeliceyes) for CyrilOdahviing
Fandoms: Final Fantasy XIV
01 Mar 2023
Tags
Summary
In which Aymeric has a very memorable Valentione’s day indeed.
***********
The combined strength of the Lord Speaker and the Warrior of Light was not insignificant, and the door did give. It shifted a few inches and stopped once more. Through the crack there was nothing but black, although a small cascade of snow fell through to gather on the flagstone. The two stared at the damning drift, then looked at each other, and redoubled their efforts, but no amount of force could make it open further. They were trapped. Somehow, in the time since her arrival, the storm had deposited enough accumulation to bury the door.
The warrior barked out a laugh, slapping her hand to her mouth to try and hold the mirth in. Aymeric didn’t even try, chuckling until she joined and they were both howling like madmen in the empty, cavernous room. Eventually, when the merriment at the absurdity of their predicament subsided, Aymeric pulled the door shut and leaned his head against it with a tired sigh.
“I have truly managed to ruin the entire day, haven’t I?” he said finally, shoulders slumped.

Summary
“Lyse!” Arenvald said, sounding pleased. He wheeled himself away from his desk to greet the chipper woman. Fordola folded her arms, glaring at Lyse.
“What are you doing here? We only just got back. Your report isn’t done yet,” Fordola growled. The light from the doorway seemed to make her golden hair glow, like some blasted saint come to bestow her blessings. Fordola forced herself to look away instead of stare.
“I’ve come to take you shopping!” Lyse trilled. “You’ll want something nice for the Starlight Ball.”

Tags
Summary
Fourchenault Leveilleur has a a very distracting problem and his dear wife is only encouraging it.
“What made you put him on your list at all?” he wondered aloud.
“You mean beyond watching you watch him like a man dying of thirst? I do have a working brain, my love. He’s reliable, efficient, intelligent, confident yet modest, well spoken, observant, discrete, but not shy about voicing his opinion,” she ticked each item off on her fingers, “and mind-meltingly attractive. Plus you’ve always liked the ones that work with their hands.” The last said with an impish, cheeky grin making him harrumph and glower to cover his blush, arm flung over his face without admitting to anything.

An Unexpected Starlight: A Comedie of Manners in Pre-Calamity Coerthas by Cerulean_Snow_Elf (Gaeliceyes) for Elliekat
Fandoms: Final Fantasy XIV
01 Jan 2025
Tags
Summary
The starlight season was generally not a time of great activity amongst the temple knights of Ishgard. Whether it be the will of Halone or an aversion to the chill, dragons were less active in the winter months and thankfully had no comprehension of Ishgardian traditional festivals. Thus most troops were sheltered in the warmth of the nearest garrison and free to participate in local festivities in lieu of constant drills. It was the unlucky lot of Captain Bonhomme’s expeditionary squad, however, that they were on the active duty roster when a flight of dragons was reported deep in the Coerthan highlands and were therefore, with much grumbling and unhappiness, deployed into the wilds in pursuit of their ancestral enemy. Only their assigned dragoon seemed eager to travel — or at least unbothered by the possible loss of the assemblies and other revels that accompanied the festive season — but then Wyrmblood only ever had one purpose as far as anyone was aware and that was to dispatch as many dragons as possible, with little concern for life, limb, comfort or merriment.

Idylls in Elpis by Cerulean_Snow_Elf (Gaeliceyes) for luminya
Fandoms: Final Fantasy XIV
28 Feb 2025
Tags
Summary
A gift for the dear luminya. I hope I did alright with your WoL.
Based on the prompt of "Elpis doesn't usually give familiars their own rooms. Hythlodaeus offers to share a room with Azem's funny carbuncle, much to Emet-Selch's chagrin. Given how Azem's ""familiar"" can't seem to stop glancing at them ever-so-strangely, though, sharing a room could turn into something more at the snap of a finger."
