Summary
A collection of short fics I wrote for FFxivWrite2023 because I somehow managed to get through it a third(!) time.
As these fics can vary greatly in subject matter, each chapter summary includes [Patch] and [Relationships involved] and a more or less MSQ spoiler free description of the piece to aid in reading. I also included relevant dictionary entries of each word or phrase used as prompts.

Summary
Then, abruptly, the characteristic pop of an aetherial discharge and sudden displacement of air that could only mean one thing— someone had just been teleported onto the Ragnarok.
Thancred’s heart soared as he saw Rinh Panipahr materialize before his eyes—
—and then sunk like a stone when the teleportation magicks keeping Rinh suspended in the air dissipated, she tumbled to the ground in a cacophonous clatter of armor, and he finally got a good look at the state she was in.
She was sprawled out across the floor, seemingly motionless, limbs slack and head lolling alarmingly. Her face was swollen with florid bruises and caked with dried blood. Her armor was a wreck— dented here, torn asunder there, and everywhere pockmarked with deep, jagged punctures. Blood slowly pooled beneath her.
The Scions were aghast; a terrible silence hung over the bridge. For one horrifying moment, Thancred was sure that she was dead.
Before that thought could take root, though, Y’shtola spoke. “Her aether stirs,” she said, “She yet lives— but her injuries are grave, and she needs help, now.”
--
At the end of everything, Thancred reflects on where it all began.

Summary
“If I may,” Thancred said, shaking the conjurer from her reverie, “The lovely maiden beside me is named Y’shtola.” He glanced back at his friend, grinning wolfishly. “Limsa Lominsa has the pleasure of being under her care.”
Y’shtola pointedly ignored Thancred, instead looking the newest Scion directly in the eye. “Greetings,” she deadpanned.
“...hi,” said the adventurer. Her face was darkened by a slight blush-- embarrassment at Thancred’s antics, no doubt.

Summary
A collection of prompt responses for FFXIV Write 2021!
Rating may change as it goes on. It will likely be shippy nonsense with Thancred and my WoL Seraphina, but I hope to flesh out her relationships with the other characters more.

Summary
She seizes. It takes Thancred by surprise—this is not the first time it has happened, but there is no regularity to it. X’shasi convulses atop her bed and her breathing becomes ragged with panting. Something—not blood; it looks more like meol, though Thancred refuses to follow the thread of that thought—leaks from the corner of her lips or sprays from her gasping mouth. He is afraid then that she will hurt herself, until he remembers that she is already in pain and there is little she could do to injure herself worse than she already has. In the aftermath, Thancred turns her onto her side and holds her head gently until he is certain she is breathing; that she has not choked on her own aspirated Light.

It is, all things considered, a very quiet evening.
It doesn’t feel like it should be.
