Fandom: Alchemy Stars
Characters: Reinhardt, Helios, Charon, Vivian, Constantine
Prompts: What do any of these fine upstanding Illuminan officers (Constantine excepted) do in the run of a day? Show me *lol* -- or show me Constantine hunting/recording a death/recording Eclipsites on the menu. (do you need to specially prepare Eclipsite first?)

Reinhardt and Helios finally reuniting after all the bullshit, even if it's while Helios is still confined.

Come to that, what was Helios filling his time with while he's been confined to quarters and being poked and prodded by everything from medics to the spook squad and a battery of combat therapists ...? Aside from accidentally mangling stuff in a fit, that is?

Charon is/was an undercity governor, how did that work? Better, he's a vampire, how's Illumina keeping him supplied? The blood substitute from Varaki Town or something similar? (Occasional) volunteers (Vivian, Barton, Reinhardt …)? Both?

Barton marshaling the troops :D Vivian giving him hell about the supply budget :D


Fandom: Dragalia Lost
Characters: Vixel, Zodiark, Parallel Zodiark, Audric, Cleo, Azazel
Prompts: Given Vixel's hinting around his "troublemaker" years in-game, just what was all that about? What prompted him back down a better path – and does it have anything to do with his healer ability? (absolutely feel free to draw on the Key Slammer from Rage Of Bahamut or the little hints of Something from Shadowverse's Captivating Conductor card if you like ~)

Since "Zodiark" is actually a fusion of Zodiark and what remains/ed of Aurelius' spirit, what does he have to say to Audric and Parallel Zodiark, if anything? And vice versa? Or are they just studiously trying to avoid each other?

How much of how Zodiark looks in humanoid form is actually remnants of Aurelius leaking through? Has anyone noticed –?

Show me Cleo doing Cleo things! Management or cooking or pantry prep – or how things went for her in the aftermath of Chapter 10 (and did she, I wonder, have a chance for some unorthodox memento snatching).

And Azazel was set up in his dragon story to have a Story that impacted the whole Church, and then nothing. What about what could have been?


Fandom: Knights Of Glory
Characters: N/A
Prompts: KoG is a defunct mobile game by Cygames that was essentially Dragalia Lost's predecessor. I have its artbook and a small staff book and have been trying to scrape up other info – and one thing I'm sorely lacking is much detail about the actual story as it unfolded.

Any pointers or links to playthroughs, plot summaries on blogs, wiki entries or the like would be grand. Japanese language sources totally fine (I mean, JP-only release, it's to be expected lol ~)


Fandom: Final Fantasy IV
Characters: Cecil Harvey, Kain Highwind
Fandom-Specific DNW: Content from The After Years
Prompts: I want to know more about how dark knighthood and dragoonhood works.

Cecil's dark knight armour, especially in a lot of the cg renders, looks more like a carapace bolted to him/to something in his flesh, especially from the back and especially his torso. What this this thing (or, what could it be in a new interpretation) and what does it imply? How altered was he (meta)physically, especially given that the dark knight techniques involve devouring your life to murder with black bolts of energy. No wonder Cecil expects to be hollowed out? Did any marks of this remain even after he becomes a paladin?

(the first time new acquaintances see him unarmour would also be fun, whether connected to the above or no. Edward, say.)

Meanwhile the original FFIV sourcebooks say that Baron's dragoons had dragons/wyverns (like FFII, etc) and Kain was the only one who was able to tend his father's dragon after his father died. Where are the dragons by the time IV starts? (the answer may be not great? >.>;;) What did that bond entail? Kain's pretty frequently/consistently depicted with claws or clawlike nails that aren't just long nails …

The two of these souls and their friendship over the years, totally on subject here. Kain's reaction to Cecil's training?

Looking at any of this through a postgame lens, also cool –


Fandom: Final Fantasy C2
Characters: Firion, Maria, Leon, Minwu, Gordon, Leonora …
Prompts: Final Fantasy C2 is a fanhack that (loosely) recreates FFII inside the guts of the FFIV game and plays around with the cast, the events, characters' abilities, and basically everything else.

I'm working through it and I'm absolutely charmed :D Even when it's kicking my arse :D

Show me just about anything from the perspective of any of the above, alone or in combo. Gordon's metamorphosis is a great example of something that would be cool. *lol* Or how about one of those secret boss fights with familiar faces, how do they work into FFC2? ;3

Basically I love II and I love IV and I love fanhacks, this is my kind of catnip which is why I want to ask for someone's take on anything of what it does, even though I'm not finished it yet *lol* – which also means that if you haven't finished it yet either but an element already speaks to you also, go for it.


Fandom: Final Fantasy VII Ever Crisis
Characters: Sephiroth, Glenn Lodbrok, Angeal Hewley
Prompts: Timing might make it tricky (or it might not; maaaaaybe everyone did go back to Midgar post-Rhadore and the defection came later, if the ultimate weapon intro is any indication), but hell why not, bend time (ha) if you need to, let's see more young!Sephiroth and Glenn antics and interactions :D

Or, further on … did they get to at least exchange a few more words in Wutai after the main event, in the timeskip segment? Have they managed to stay more in touch than you might expect, even, given how that segment starts?

Or some new madcap adventure involving portal magic, lol.

Let's see Glenn in his own training days! (extrapolating from First SOLDIER is totally fine, lol ~) How much did it annoy some bodies when he passed? ;3~ What hilarribad exploits does he have under his belt ~?

In round two of the FS segments of the game, Sephiroth is definitely not weathering more recent events (including Glenn and co defecting, I'd wager) if you compare him to his FS round one appearance. Oh, and the completely goddamned unhinged extra story segment event goddamn. A peek at his non-existent coping over his first friends up and leaving could be interesting –

Speaking of training days, Angeal's in Second and he had to get there, which we haven't seen yet. He does seem to get to go home and visit, though – maybe a peek at his first visit home? Or the moment when this country boy found himself getting plunked into Midgar and Shinra HQ? How much did he see or deal with Sephiroth while he trained through the ranks?
