One Thing Beyond Question

Summary:

FFXIVWrite 2024 collection for chesca/bloodwhet.

Likely to be fairly heavy on OCs, I’ll try to give some context in chapter descriptions and make note of chapters with more canon character focus.

Notes:

Hello! I am doing FFXIVWrite.

Original characters you’re likely to encounter fairly often are:

- Marcel Aan Bestia, a viera kidnapped by Garleans before being found and forcefully adopted by Summer. Awkward and serious and Doing His Best at all times, but prone to following quest directions without asking why. Usually the Warrior of Light unless I note that it’s an AU.

- Summer Icarian, a miqo’te who grew up in Gyr Abania until she ran away to try to summon a primal. Succeeded at this with the ‘help’ of Lahabrea!Thancred. Oops.

- X’Niko Tia, Summer’s best friend and partner in bad ideas. Very tempered until 5.4. Also oops.

Summer and Niko are my friends’ blorbos but I decided they’re also mine now and nobody has stopped me yet.

Chapter 1: Index

Chapter Text

Adding an index to this so that I can tag the characters involved without subjecting anyone looking for content of them to unrelated nonsense.
