Lost Eclipse Part 16

Trees flickered past as Kaito raced down the forest path as fast as he dared go; the sooner he was out of the forest and into Rovetelle, the sooner he could begin piecing together current events and finding out the lay of the land. (And the sooner he could return to Ishida’s side.) (He hoped …

A Token, My Liege? Part 13

The rest of his visit is significantly easier, but also significantly less interesting; he finds one or two more wyverns who he could work with if he made the effort, but… none of them match his magic as cleanly as the blue in Whirlwind’s flight. Truthfully, none of them match his magic even as well …

beneath the cherry trees Part 2

The village is quiet, peaceful, like something out of an idyllic story. There’s a waterfall nearby, filling the air with the steady noise of rushing water, and an owl is calling from one of the trees, but otherwise there’s nothing stirring. Erich wanders down the stone paths with Alexis at his side, ears perked as …

Kaito/Hanataro: Soulmate AU + Fairy Tale AU

Kaito/hanataro 24 and 25 anonymous (24: Soulmate AU, 25: Fairy Tale AU) Hanataro sighed and slumped against the tower’s crenelations, exhausted from a long night of healing and wanting nothing more than to sleep but knowing he couldn’t. Not when there were more warriors awaiting healing. Not when he was the only healer in this …

Bare Your Fangs to the Dusk Part 20

“Well, that meeting went better than expected,” Kisuke said as soon as the… servants? Probably servants… filed out of the room and closed the door behind them; while he appreciated the thought behind bringing in a larger bed and a large tub for them to wash up in, he wished it wasn’t so obvious that …

Lost Eclipse Part 15

Zethia looked up as someone entered the dining hall and had to bite back a gasp at the sight of a very human-looking Urahara. “Huh, guy really wasn’t jokin’, was he?” Ranzal murmured at her side as the two of them took in the approaching man. He really didn’t look that different if she was …

Fox and Griffin Part 11

Erich leaned back away from the table and sipped at his tea as Tsukabishi cleared the table and Fox rummaged through a cabinet looking for… something or other. The man hadn’t said and Erich hadn’t felt like asking. (Not when he was still reeling from… from not hurting.) (He’d… he’d never thought it was fixable, …

beneath the cherry trees Part 1

The moon rises late in the afternoon, pulling Erich away from his paperwork with a rush of silver-bright power. It settles in his bones and rushes through his blood, and between one breath and the next his body changes, flowing into quicksilver mist that swirls downward, condenses— He takes a breath. Tastes the familiar scents …

Bare Your Fangs to the Dusk Part 19

Seigmar leaned back in his chair and swirled the dregs of his tea around, pretending to be interested in the motion while he subtly watched Eris lead Erich, Alexis, and Urahara from the room. (Though he supposed he should call him ‘Kisuke’ now, given Erich’s intention to marry the man.) “Well, that was an interesting …

swept up amid this changing world Part 13

Having someone — two someones — constantly at his side is… disorienting. Even his aide hadn’t been quite so glued to his side, the two of them knowing the other’s routine and content to work with — and around — the other to get their jobs done. (He… misses Beltz, for all that Degurechaff has …

swept up amid this changing world Part 12

He wakes to agony, to too-loud noises and pulsing pain and the disorienting ripple of power-as-light across his closed eyes and— He exhales. Tries not to whine— (If he whines he makes noise and noise hurts so it will hurt and he just wants it all to stop—the noise and the pain and the light …

swept up amid this changing world Part 11

((Warning for Erich having a pretty visceral panic attack in this one.)) “Sir, I’d like to formally register my complaint about this course of action,” Degurechaff grumbles as she steps into the tent carrying a fourth chair. She sets it down to the right of his chair and then stands behind it, her hands planted …

swept up amid this changing world Part 10

Alexis is dealing again when Degurechaff rounds the corner and shoots him an amused look. She waves her lieutenants down before they can do more than start to rise and says, “I’m not here to break anything up, don’t mind me.” Erich sighs internally and rises to his feet, squeezing Alexis’ shoulder and shaking his …
