Welcome to Keep the Flame Alive, a three week event from September 9th-30th for Tales of Arise! We have three weeks worth of prompts focused around the three main pairings, but gen, platonic, romantic, SFW, and NSFW content is all welcome!

Alphen x Shionne

Shionne finds out about it and is intent on the idea. Food and kisses? Yes plz

Alphen is embarrassed but intrigued

Shionne buys several packs and forgets she can like. Just eat the pocky. Without the kisses. Alphen almost keels over from sugar overdose trying to keep her happy

Dohalim x Kisara

It's silly but the whimsy of it draws Kisara

Dohalim misses the point and buys sticks of various jerky to try it with

Kisara is Not Impressed

(But she tries it anyway)

At least she came prepared with the right thing

And knowing Do's tastes, she brought a variety of flavors instead of just the common chocolate

Do is partial to banana pocky

Law and Rinwell

Law wants. So badly. To do this with Rinwell

She is Uninterested

(He hasn't even gotten the guts to ask her on a date)

(And now here's the darling idiot with a box of pocky stumbling over his words in a failed attempt to explain the game)

They share the pocky in the courtyard at the Autelina Palace while Rinwell reads a book and Law just enjoys the time together

(He feels ridiculous)

(But he also just likes spending the time together so it's still a win)

Tales of Arise | Law x Rinwell | G rated

Fic summary: Astral energy was supposed to be dangerous, something only Renans could wield. Yet here was Rinwell, bright and joyful and the complete opposite, dancing like a butterfly on the winds.

And sometimes, Law wondered.

“How does it feel like?”

___________

Magic, Law always believed, was dangerous.

Any Dahnan interested in staying alive learned to identify the tell-tales signs of an astral arte from an early age. The flash of bright eyes. The thrum in the air. The unmistakable scent of power, converging at a single source, before bursting forth in an explosion that shook the world in raw, elemental fury.

Law was intensely familiar with the devastation that was often left in an astral arte’s wake. Familiar with the cruel smirks of the Renans as they looked over their dirty work, the taunts of might making right. The careless ease of astral artes that so easily took life away.

He’d seen it with the Renans in Cyslodia, with Ganabelt. He’d come to expect anyone with that much power to be dangerous, unable to appreciate the life of those who didn’t have that same power.

But then there was Rinwell.

Her artes were dangerous, far more than some of their foes. Hell, he’d seen her summon massive cyclones from nothing, seen her dancing in the gale above him as her chants rained meteors on the battlefield. She was only fourteen, and here she was, fighting alongside the rest of them using her incredible command over astral energy to turn battles in their favour.

But the concept of Rinwell being dangerous just didn’t mesh in his head.

Not when she smiled so brightly, laughed so warmly. Not when he’d catch her pouring over one of her tomes, mild sparks of astral energy gathering in the palm of her hand. Not when Hootle or Alphen would ruffle her hair and she’d make an indignant noise before Kisara gave her Shionne’s freshly baked sweets to calm her down.

Not when her astral artes ghosted over his skin, leaving him completely untouched save for the warm tingle of her presence. When her winds would stop an enemy coming after him in its tracks, and he’d glimpse her relieved smile from across the battlefield. When there was never the same cruel pleasure in her eyes that he’d grown to associate with astral artes.

And sometimes, Law… wondered.

I wrote a fanfic last month after I finished Tales of Arise and I made this illustration to go with it. I love seeing the community post their artwork here and wanted to add to it.
