Faulty Paragon

  • summer terraces

    She is new to Alola, here to run away from things she does not yet know how to name. He is familiar to Alola, here to run away from things whose names he knows all too well. But he's not really running, and neither is she, and that's okay. She'd prefer if he and that giant bug of his were a little quieter next door, though. -aka Guzma finding peace with someone new. Post-game.

  • falling, fallen

    The Warrior of Light has somehow managed to win over the rest of the world. Aymeric does not believe he will fall, too. No one else has ever been able to sway his heart, after all. Then, he falls. -aka WoL gets to finally unpack some of his trauma, and all Aymeric wants is to help, even if he doesn't know how. Post-HW AymericxWoL, previous one-sided HaurcheWoL

  • i'll cover you

    Haurchefant is not a champion of the world. He's nowhere near that self-aggrandizing. However, his shield is big enough to protect one other, at the very least. He knows who he longs to cover. -aka a heart-to-heart between WoL and Haurchefant. Set early in Heavensward.

  • Bitter, Meet Sweet

    When Miles Edgeworth finds a strange log on his android assistant's records, his investigation leads him to an unexpected place- and to an unexpected man. Although Phoenix Wright seems like a simple enough creature, his café is anything but. Miles wants to know more about The Nest. He's going to figure it out, laws be damned. Domestic, wholesome, slight sci-fi Wrightworth AU.

  • stand next to me

    Phoenix Wright's traumas are endless, and not everyone can apologize for what they've done, but all bad things must come to an end, and not all wounds remain unhealed. -aka five times that Phoenix developed and/or suffered through his greatest fears, and one time he didn't have to. Eventual Wrightworth.

  • ride with me

    Marrow thought that completing this scouting mission would be straightforward. As long as he was able to bring the necessary info back to the Aces, perhaps he would finally be accepted as one of their own. He was not expecting to meet a handsome, lone cowboy on the road, carrying more warmth than either would like to admit. QrowxMarrow (I call them Hellhound) Western/cowboy AU.

  • keep a window open for me

    Miles Edgeworth and Phoenix Wright were just 18 when they ran off together to pursue their passions without fearing interference from their families. Now, they are 33 with more back pain than ever, and the luster they used to call their own isn't there anymore. They'll find that light again together. -slice-of-life, domestic real world AU Wrightworth vignettes.

  • leave an impression

    Eight months of work brings Yuuri to the silver medal podium. It is not the work which he remembers, though; it's how cold the space beside him used to be. It's not cold anymore. -leave an impression, don't let it fade, aka vignettes of Victor and Yuuri growing closer off the ice. Victuuri during S1 with eventual smut.

  • trace (vestiges)

    Miles Edgeworth is an expert in many things, but the warmth of another is not one of them. Phoenix has always been a good teacher, though. -aka Miles is touch-starved and Phoenix is ready to change that. Wrightworth. Similar in concept to my fic 'touch (scintillas)' for RWBY FairGame, albeit far more wholesome (for now).

  • Emotional Support Agent

    Miles' heart has beat solely for Phoenix Wright ever since the incident on Eagle Mountain, but Phoenix will never reciprocate. Fortunately, Phoenix is not the only spiky-haired law-affiliated man with whom Miles is acquainted. Unfortunately... the other man is Shi-Long Lang. Miles craves a touch he has never had. The Interpol agent is about to make Miles an offer he cannot refuse.

  • footprints in the carpet

    Qrow Branwen has worked with a lot of people he'd rather never meet ever again. And then, he meets Clover Ebi. "My Semblance is good fortune. Lucky you, huh?" …he's never wanted to kill his partner outright from the start, but perhaps he can make an exception. -aka an exploration of the tension between Clover and Qrow which could have actually developed. Eventual Fair Game.

  • Ante Bellum

    As the tiny, backwater village of Nibelheim is attacked by the Heartless, Cloud finds nothing left for his family but mourning and death, until a group of travelling warriors arrives. They may be the only chance his people have at surviving a godforsaken year of eternal rain-but that year holds more than the mere rebuilding of his town in store for him. Cleon, possible others.

  • To Touch the Earth

    All Riku has ever wanted is to be able to let the rain dance upon his skin, to smell the flowers, to hold the earth in his hands- but, nothing but darkness, emptiness, surround him as he lies chained by his master in Keep. Then, a naïve dancer stumbles across his tower, and their fates are woven together forever. AU Riso, inspired by 'Rapunzel'. Very dark, rated M for a reason.

  • Irreplaceable

    A man sits on the corner of the street, alone in the rain, with nothing but a guitar and a photograph by his side. This man is everything that Roxas has ever asked for - acceptance in a world of rejection. One doesn't need to know the superficial details in order to feel another's heart. AU AxelxRoxas implied LeaxIsa. Inspired by 'The Man Who Can't Be Moved' by The Script.

  • Reflections

    Reno and Rufus talk about the Remnants, of Shinra, and of what the Turks mean to the President. The words unspoken are what makes the world turn. RufusxReno, post AC.

  • Incapable

    AU. Momiji had everything he had ever needed - Tohru, and his passion for the violin. He didn't need his family, acceptance - nothing else, if not for the euphoria felt with her warmth and his music. Unfortunately, sometimes, that just isn't enough. Momiji learns this the hard way - disease is a difficult enemy, even harder to fight without a name.

  • Evolution

    AU. After spending a decade in Midgar, Cloud returns to Nibelheim only to find that his home isn't really his anymore, and that his family has become something similar to a memory - still loved, still cherished, but not quite so tangible. It isn't his place to save it, either, as Tifa, a young woman dreaming of running her own bar, struggles to find her own peace. hintedfutureCloti

  • Rain and Routine

    She waited day after day upon that bench, rain or shine, even though it wasn't pretty anymore - broken, cracked, forgotten, like her. She wasn't expecting someone to come and share with her their umbrella, their words, their heart. AU, slight NaminexRoxas.

  • Empty Words, Empty Faces

    Slight AU. He first met her upon the bridge, the air still but the wind brisk and sweat streaming down his face as he pulled her off the edge of a railing. It's hard finding something to live for when nothing seems to recognize that they, in fact, exist, and they deserve that just as much as everyone else. Then again, they aren't most people. TwelvexLisa

  • Where Freedom Lay

    A chain link fence separates their worlds-his, of destruction and violence, and honour and dreams; hers, of solitude and pity, and hope and warmth. Explosions and gunfire are not the best soundtrack to the finding of one's hope, but sometimes, the fighting all goes away, and all that's left is sky and ocean and sand between your toes, and it's all you really need. ZackxAerith. AU
