Fandoms: Final Fantasy XIV

Summary
A gift for the dear luminya. I hope I did alright with your WoL.
Based on the prompt of "Elpis doesn't usually give familiars their own rooms. Hythlodaeus offers to share a room with Azem's funny carbuncle, much to Emet-Selch's chagrin. Given how Azem's ""familiar"" can't seem to stop glancing at them ever-so-strangely, though, sharing a room could turn into something more at the snap of a finger."

Summary
"If you had the choice, hero, would you rather go through immense suffering once and come out better on the other side, or would you prefer a slow and drawn-out, ever-increasing burden with no end?"
The Warrior of Light is tired of the neverending fight, and an ever-so-attentive Ascian knows just how to use that to his advantage.

Summary
... in which the Warrior of Light gets eagerly entangled into a magical night with Hades and Hythlodaeus.
"Ahead of her, at the end of the hallway, was a door. Not just any door, but a door she knew would lead somewhere… magical. It whispered with currents of sizzling aether, seethed with a soft invitation, brushing over her senses like a cool promise. She moved towards it automatically, but just before her hand settled on the knob, a tiny shred of decent sense stopped her.
Should you be peeking behind closed doors?
Maybe not. Maybe this was a bad idea, one of those times she might regret sticking her nose into things she shouldn’t… There was the faintest little noise, like a soft snicker or a quiet sound of amusement. As if the door was laughing at her conundrum. And at the same time, she couldn’t resist the temptation. She had to know. Gathering her courage, the Warrior cursed once, and then entered the unknown with a thrill of anticipation."

Long after the Warrior of Light was slain by the events of the Eighth Umbral Calamity, darkness stirs once more upon the Source. Seeking to prepare for the Ninth Umbral Calamity, the Ascians have set themselves to the task of seeding chaos once more. Bored and in desperate need for entertainment, Hythlodaeus sends Hades a gift that he's sure to appreciate—after he's had his turn, of course.
After all, nothing says 'I love you' quite like a dagger in the back from the reincarnation of your dead lover.

Summary
“You don’t really hate me.” He croons, as smug as when you first met him. His aether brushes against your own, his darkness cool and inviting to how unbearable warm you feel. “Or perhaps you do. And instead, you hate that you cannot stop yourself from coming to me.” His teeth gleam in the dark of the night. “Or coming for me.”

Summary
Emet-Selch had said there would be a price to pay for retrieving Y’shtola from the lifestream. That the Ascian had expected something in return for his generosity didn’t surprise you in the least. What you never would have anticipated is that the price he demanded was you.
