    Summary

    When the twins were ten, they discovered there was a fate worse than identical outfits - matching outfits. Presented with a fancy dress and suit by a colleague of their father's, they're forced to accept and wear the gift, but Alisaie flatly refuses to put on a dress. Alphinaud figures it can't hurt for him to wear it instead; nobody can tell them apart anyway. And he discovers that feeling beautiful is a wonderful thing.

    As he grows older, he also discovers that he very much likes the flattering attention paid to him by boys when he wears dresses. The problem is that the boys who flirt with him wouldn't be happy to discover what lies beneath the skirts, and he wonders if he'll ever find a solution.

    Summary

    The experience of nearly freezing to death while being held hostage in Garlemald brought the twins closer together. When they later return to Camp Broken Glass to help in the restoration efforts and discover they'll have to share a room, Alphinaud assumes it will be annoying but bearable. He didn't expect that Alisaie would hate the cold so much she'd demand that they sleep in the same bed to share warmth; it wouldn't be a problem except that the final stages of puberty are beginning to make their effects known.

    Then the growth truly strikes them both, and they learn that all the dire warnings and lewd stories of the effects of a rapidly maturing libido are true. Suddenly, being forced into close quarters with absolutely no privacy is an incredibly difficult experience, and Alphinaud despairs for his sanity. At least sharing the misery of the experience will likely make the twins grow closer still. However, there is such a thing as too close, and he has no idea what to do about it.

    Summary

    Set after 6.0, Vrtra/Estinien, spoilers for MSQ and level 70 DRG quests.

    "The first song I knew came from my sire. A dirge, which became the lullaby that Midgardsormr sang to us in the egg on the long flight between the stars. It is a song I have never forgotten, despite all the ages of mankind which have risen and fallen since."

    "A lullaby?" Distracted away from his assessment of Vrtra's injuries, Estinien smirks at the idea of the greatest of dragons crooning like a doting nursery attendant. "What was it like?"

    Bemused, Vrtra only inclines his head. "Shall I recite it for thee?"

    Summary

    It is the early years of Jayce and Viktor's scientific partnership, and the Distinguished Innovators competition is only three days away. That is, if they can get all the work done for it in time when Jayce is exhausted, overworked, and at risk of burning out entirely before they even make it there.

    So when Jayce jokingly asks Viktor to take control and tell him what to do, in the hopes that it will help Jayce relax and get some much needed sleep before the competition, he was not expecting Viktor to so readily oblige. Nor was he expecting what happened after.

    Summary

    “Father Viktor has brought back all those programs you whined about missing. The East Hall is being converted into a soup kitchen as we speak, and after Mass there’s going to be an open-doors Christmas meal,” his mother says wistfully, drinking in a sip from her mug.

    Jayce is going to have to see that for himself. His high income neighborhood and the prestigious, self-righteous families that attend the Church? Rubbing elbows with people in need for the holidays?

    Maybe he really does need to meet Father Viktor. And shake his hand.

    ─── ⋆⋅ ♰ ⋅⋆ ───

    Or: Jayce comes home for the holidays after a breakup to find a new priest at his childhood Catholic church. Father Viktor is not the kind of person Jayce ever expected to be a priest, but he has a dream to change Jayce's hometown for the better, and he decides to do everything he can to help. The more he helps, the more Jayce sees glimpses of Viktor, the man, not the priest. And the more glimpses he sees of Viktor, the more Jayce is so, so fucked.
