Rating: T
Genre: Character study, Game-canon ending/post-epilogues
Characters: Symonne, Sorey, Rose, Mikleo, Alisha Diphda, Lunarre, Phoenix
Warnings: Canon-typical violence, Minor character death… pretentious prose?? IDK
Summary: Truth be told, she never was all that fond of morality plays. Or, five times Symonne struggled with meaning and one time she found contentment in simply being.

Rating: T
Genre: AU. Post-apocalyptic Science Fiction, Cyberpunk/Dieselpunk.
Character(s): Sorey, Mikleo, Atakk, Lailah and Rose. Brief mentions of Michael, Muse and Zenrus.
Warnings: Descriptions of minor violence (?? I think it’s minor-ish but YMMV), blood and injuries, pseudo-science terminology/technology. Also, slight hurt/comfort feels… kind of. I love to die in pain and feels.
Summary: In which Sorey treads in his mother’s footsteps and ventures out beyond the City Dome, only to stumble upon an injured young woman and her strange companion droid. Prequel one-shot to verdant green.
A/N: And… of course, the first fic I share for 2018 is one with more pain and feels. Of course. Anyway, this was an extremely self-indulgent excuse to write more sci-fi AUs and to experiment/go back to writing more descriptive action scenes set against a backdrop of introspection. Or something, lol. Inspired by many things, but mostly by this track playing on loop.
Title: A Series of Catastrophic Incidents
Series: Tales of Zestiria
Genre: Game-Canon, Crack/Humour
Characters: Dezel, Rose, Sorey, Mikleo, Lailah, Edna, Zaveid, Alisha Diphda, Sergei Strelka, Original Characters
Warnings: None, unless you’re violently allergic to cats, bad puns, and unhinged utensils
A/N: This started out as a joke fic an excuse to write more cute/silly party shenanigans but kind of spiralled out of hand, lol. So I guess it’s now the equivalent of a side-quest… oops? I may or may not have mixed up some events in the game timeline very slightly for creative liberties, but it’s nothing serious. Takes place in the time after the party’s arrival in Lastonbell and before the incident with Forton in Pendrago.

Series: Tales of Zestiria
Genre: Post-apocalyptic-AU Science Fiction, Cyberpunk/Dieselpunk.
Character(s): Mikleo, Sorey, and Atakk. Brief mentions of Michael, Muse, and Zenrus.
Warnings: Character death, mentions of terminal illness, nonsense sci-fi medical procedures and terminology.
Summary: Mikleo refused to vocalize it, of course—Sorey doesn’t need to know of it, never needs to—but even he had to admit there was an amorphous beauty to them.
A/N: So I’ve been seeing this post going around tumblr about using words like “smaragdine” in fic. And what started out as a joke conversation with Namio/Bagel on twitter turned into something more. Also, Buckminsterfullurene is not a made-up term. They are actually the smallest molecule of carbon shaped like a hollow hexagonal sphere, like a football (that’s why they’re also called ‘buckyballs’) except nano-sized.
