Idk if this is canon, if this will become something larger, I'm just in my Hades and Nerys post EW feelings and wanted to write something

Big ol spoilers for 6.0

Fresh air. She needs fresh air and the sun of her face and what comes out of the cracked window right now isn't enough. 

She needs to move.

She needs somewhere she can think and process everything. Not here in this still room with its white walls and high white ceiling and white molding. 

At least now she is conscious enough to think. Just yesterday she still drifted in and out of sleep, nothing but a holding cell for exhaustion. 

Nerys eases herself into sitting position. Tears prick her eyes--healing magic can only do so much when you're on the brink of death. The act raising herself is agony. But once she stands-

-well, it's still awful. But less awful. She reconsiders her plan to jump down--even with her dragoon training, the landing is going to kill her when she's in this state. 

If there isn't someone standing outside her door, one of the servants will be posted in the hall. No doubt under orders from Ameliance and the medics to keep her where she is. 

No jumping. Gentle scaling down it is. 

Putting on trousers beneath her nightgown is more complicated than it should be, especially with the garments needing to go over bandages. She feels slightly lightheaded once she takes off the nightgown and presses a hand to the wall. 

Maybe no scaling all the way down. Maybe she will simply climb out onto one of the roofs and sit in the fresh air. Nerys manages into a thin robe and doesnt bother with an undershirt. Her breastband will suffice. It will have to suffice. 

Nerys perches on the window sill, her feet find the ledge just below. The door opens behind her. 

"Absolutely not," says Hades. He does not move, nor does he snap her into bed. It is both kind (letting her make the choice) and patronizing (expecting that of course she will go back to bed.)

"Hades."

"Hero."

Nerys drops, leaning her head against the windowfrane. "I just want to sit outside for a little while. Please."

He makes a noise. "You could have asked."

"Please?" She looks back at him. "Oh great and esteemed Eme-"

This time he does snap. They are on the roof with her cradled in his lap, her cheek against the fabric of his jacket and ruffled shirt. The Sharlayan fashions agree with him though he rather dislikes their lack of embellishment or panache. 

She looks up, about to ask to be left there for a while. That had been part of it after all, the chance at solitude in a new location. But his grip is tight and the way he looks at her-

Worry, beneath the mask of annoyance with her. 

What she remembers most of waking up on the Ragnorak is Alisaie crying. How badly the sound broke her heart. But she also remembers the utter helplessness in Hades' eyes. Something about Ultima Thule severely limited his creation magic and he hadn't been able to snap her to safety as he'd wanted. 

It had wrecked them all, her friends and lovers on that ship. But Hades wasn't used to feeling powerless. Even his death at her hand had been at the height of his prowess and ability. 

"Thank you," she mumbles into his chest. The breeze stirs at her limp curls, the sleeves of her robe. 

"You're ashen," he tells her. One hand lifts into the air to conjure a grimoire almost coalescing purple smoke and aether. "How were you going to get back into your room?"

"I was going to figure that out when it came time," she says. "No one's confiscated my linkpearl yet."

"Yes well, it's for if you need assistance." He says with pointed expression. His magic washes over her in cooling, gentle waves. "And Thancred has permission to …confront anyone who uses it to ask you for an errand."

"You're all too much." She hides her smile against him.

"My dear you like me precisely because I am too much." He closes his arms around her, carefully, tenderly as the magic continues oothing her. "You would not change a hair on my perfect head."

"I don't know," she says. "I also liked the hair you wore when I met you in the past."

"If you're good, perhaps I might let you witness me in such a style again." 

"I have been very good."

"Try telling me that when I haven't just caught you halfway out a window."

She laughs and falls silent with a smile, soaking up the sun, the wind, the fresh air, the scent of Hades and spring.

Hi I know I'm leaving a trail of comments across the series but I just wanted to tell you that you're a really fucking good writer and that I aspire to your skill of weaving an interesting story around all the given dialogue from NPCs 💜

Hello and welcome to the first run of FFXIV Polyamory Week! This event was created to celebrate all of the non-monogamous relationships in the world of FFXIV between OCs, NPCs, and any configuration of the two. While it's nice to see other ship events be polyamory inclusive, I have yet to see any events that are explicitly for polyamory, so I decided to be the change I want to see.

When: May 19th through May 25th

Prompt List:

Day 1: Sleeping Positions | First Time Sleeping Together

Day 2: Domestic Life | Mundane Tasks

Day 3: Date Night | First Dates

Day 4: Outfit Swaps | Role Changes

Day 5: Alternate Universe | In Another Life

Day 6: Celebrations | Holidays

Day 7: Vacation | Relaxation

Rules and Guidelines:

Tag all characters with their full name, as well as any relevant spoiler tags.

If it's NSFW, mark it as such.

While there can be monogamous partners in a polyamorous configuration, this event is focusing on non-monogamous relationships, so please keep depictions of monogamy to a minimum.

This blog will not promote content featuring pedophilia, sexual assault/abuse, bestiality, extreme gore, or incest.

The tags #ffxivpolyamoryweek2024 and #ffxivpolyamweek24 will be tracked starting Sunday May 19th through Tuesday May 30th, so don't worry if you wind up needing extra time to catch up. Posts will run on a queue schedule.

Please look forward to it!

get out of those stuffy clothes, old man, time to get objectified

#this is not an emet-selch tag

I think it's important to let guys be gender non conforming without telling them they're a girl, cause actually misgendering people is still shit even when you are pro trans. "You're a girl, an egg waiting to crack, and that's ok" how about you are a boy and a man and it's still ok if you want to do something that doesn't align with traditional ideals of your gender. You can still be he/him in a skirt and makeup.
