Summary
When the anguished scream tears through the camp, Alisaie wishes she could be surprised.
It’s a few bells after Lucelle returned to them – truly returned, as herself and not as a sick joke perpetuated by a monster. The Scions are scattered among the Ilsabard Contingent, resting and checking over supplies one last time before they push into the capitol proper. Alisaie was watching G’raha drill alongside a paladin from the Ul’dah detachment and waves them both off when they turn towards the source of the cry. This isn’t a job for anyone but her.

Summary
"Will you give me this, Ramiel?" Alisaie says, words echoing with the delicate weight of ceremony. They'd established a formal exchange early on, all whispered oaths and promises in the dark. It gave Ramiel a choice, the one thing she valued above all else that was so routinely taken from her. Where catastrophes and monarchs presumed to own, her chevalier asked, ready to take and willing to be refused.
"Always." Ramiel says, a long exhale following her surrender. The pressure in her chest goes out with it. There wasn't any room for such a thing in Alisaie's arms. All that remained was a soul deep exhaustion and the knowledge that it could be eased through service. Ramiel feels her ears droop and closes her eyes, saying "whatever is left of me is yours."

Summary
There are only so many places to hide on a boat. Ramiel should know, as she's availed herself of every single one to avoid Alisaie's attention during the long voyage to Doma. But a week into the journey and she's already used them all up. It started innocently (if not childishly) enough - making sure they were never alone, turning and running away the moment their eyes met, all the strategies Ramiel's employed with former paramours in her time before the Scions. Which is the actual problem, because so far as she knows, they've never spent an evening together. Yet lately, the elezen looks at Ramiel like she's seen her beating heart, as if she had it in her hands and pressed her lips to all its scars before gently placing it back in her chest.
To even contemplate the depth of that sort of feeling scares the everlasting shit out of Ramiel. Knowing she's the object of it makes her want to jump into the sea and swim all the way back to Limsa. Lyse, as has always been her habit, thinks it's hilarious.

Summary
Once again, I am kneeling before you as you sit on the edge of your bed. You spread your armored hands on the altars of your thighs; palms up, making an offering I'll gladly take. The temptation to be fast, to be merciless and sudden, is great. I am at the edge of the abyss and our body is the flame at its center. But discipline can be learned. Your armor falls away. I kiss the tips of your fingers and down their lengths to the center of your palms. I will fill every empty space we have.
You sigh, and I feel a score of ragged wounds begin to close. That such a small kindness can do so much for us is infuriating. But there is much and more to this moment. The backs of your hands are scarred, messy lines cutting across them in every direction. I kiss along their faded history, feeling the twitch of tendon and muscle. You hate this. Your eyes have opened and they burn me. I've fought worse and won.

Summary
This five-part series is a Kakashi-centric time travel fix-it. It starts out pretty dark, but the real heart of the story is one of healing, and there are happy endings on the horizon. Specific warnings are included with each chapter.
Each story has its own arc and is complete in itself, but I recommend starting from the first story and reading through chronologically; the series is meant to be taken as a whole. Hope you enjoy!
Series and story titles are from History Has Its Eyes on You, from the Hamilton Soundtrack by Lin-Manuel Miranda.

Summary
"Do you ever wonder where clouds go?" Luz asks.
And Amity listens; she may not even know where she's going, but perhaps the clouds know the way. She's done running. Maybe the sky is just wide enough for her to fly.
