FFXIV
Azem/Emet-Selch/Hythlodaeus + pairings within the trio.
WoL/Emet-Selch/Hythlodaeus + pairings within the trio.
Izeira/Aymeric/Estinien + pairings within the trio.
Opens with Darling, set during the Final Days. After learning the truth of the future from Venat, Azem tells her daughter stories about her family and attempts to work out a way to save her from being sundered.
The continuation begins with One Step Closer, where the WoL tries to work out what life looks like after the choice she made in Ultima Thule.
A look at some of Antonia's (WoL's previous but one incarnation) story, As Sun Upon the Snow, fits within this universe, but contains no direct references to it.
Fics and aesthetics: #seasons and promises verse.
Reflections
Azem/Emet-Selch/Hythlodaeus, Modern AU.
Reflections in Stardust
Of course Hythlodaeus' new roommate and oldest friend is a musical theatre snob and playing in productions of Shakespeare at the National...
Fics and aesthetics: #reflections verse.
Regency
In which there are myriad rumours surrounding the taciturn and anti-social Hades, but fellow not-quite-outcasts Azem and Hythlodaeus are not one bit deterred.
Is a marriage of convenience really a marriage of convenience when it's also quite plainly for love?
Fics and aesthetics: #for want of a ribbon.
Fate Eternal
A soulmate AU detailed here, in which soulmates can feel one another's intense pain and both the WoL and Emet-Selch endure more than one sort of agony over the course of the MSQ.
Fics: #fate eternal.
Betwixt the Stars
A sci-fi AU detailed here, in which Amaurot's civilisation is divided amongst a fleet of starships, with much of its key functions and defense centered on its fourteen flagships, captained by the Convocation. Hades and Hythlodaeus command The Underworld, while Azem's ship is The Shepherd. Their marriage is the worst kept secret in the fleet.
Fics: #betwixt the stars.
Souls in Bloom
A WoL x Hades x Hythlodaeus flower shop AU, in which the so-called Witch of Elpis is a sparingly spoken florist who has an uncanny ability to know which flowers her customers need, something Hythlodaeus and Hades discover when the former insists on seeing if the rumours are true.
Fics: #souls in bloom.
Of Tea and Tempests
A reincarnated Azem crosses paths with Emet-Selch during a protracted conflict between the people of her nation and that which he has decided to lead into battle. Stems from drabble six of Metempsychosis.
Fics: #of tea and tempests
Royalty AU
The crown was never meant for Hades. Azem and Hythlodaeus were never meant to return to court. After ten years apart and a decade of heartache, is there anything of what they were that they can save?
Fics: #a dance by heart
Supernatural creatures AU
When a so-called witch nurses a rather tame 'wolf' back to health, it brings a vampire to her doorstep. And it turns out that the wolf would quite like to stay...

Another for the Modern Present AU asks, just in case the other's already been asked! :D
👚 Would they dress differently? How so?
In her Souls in Bloom modern AU, she still dresses mostly in black, but she leans much more into an overtly witchy aesthetic, with lots of long dresses/skirts in what would probably be considered old-fashioned styles. There are still hints of pinks, purples and greens here and there, which also tie in with the colour schemes of her flower shop, which is in pastel and sage greens in the shop itself, then darker, richer forest tones in her flat over the shop. There are lots of reasons that she's suspected to be a witch, one being the way she dresses, and more than one so-called 'influencer' has turned up to the shop to see what she's about.
This was made for a moodboard ask game a while ago and based on her aesthetics for this AU!
🎸 What kind of music would they listen to? How would they discover this genre?
She would very much like to learn to play the piano, though is too worried it would be an indulgence (though her Fate Eternal self is going to learn!), but still enjoys pieces played on the piano in general. She'd be listening to classical pieces and looking up piano-heavy film soundtracks, or covers of gaming soundtracks if she knew they existed. I think she'd quite like Irish folk music too, which I can see her discovering through a live performance by chance and being entranced with.

🌃 If your oc were plucked from their world and dropped into our mundane present, how would they cope?
In a way, I think she'd probably consider it a nice break - for all of five minutes. No notoriety, no expectations. But then her thoughts would turn to getting a job and needing to find somewhere to live, and she has no suitable qualifications from this world to use to do that. I expect she would have to try and prove herself as a baker, but then, does that work if she's been using creation magic to help her all this time? If she doesn't have to worry about any of that, she would probably settle into a life without magic and battle with relative ease.
But the most serious issue is the matter of whether her family ends up with her too. If not, I don't see her really endeavouring to build a life unless it's with the intention of getting back to them. If it would be a mattter of knowing she would never see her children again, she would go downhill rather swiftly. She has a lot more trauma surrounding separation from them than she ever really acknowledges, some of which is owing to Azem's memories of surrendering Astraea to Venat before her death, and other elements of which are rooted in the muddle of minutes before she (technically) almost dies giving birth to Faith, in which she tells herself it's a cycle set to repeat, but she can endure it as long as her children survive.

The soft hum of a healing spell is still wandering its way across her skin in the golden light of the dying afternoon, the sensation one that she distantly acknowledges as strangely comforting as it continues to seek out any lingering harm that it has not already addressed, easing free the hints and beginnings of bruises and—
For a moment, she feels it flicker over a particular spot at the juncture of neck and shoulder in an almost immediate response to a sharpness inflicted by very deliberate attentions unlike the so recent clash of weapons and power responsible for the other, not so much more than trivial, marks that littered her skin a matter of minutes ago.
Before she and her husband emerged from the shadows of the forest and into the sunshine, folding themselves down into the grass to see to repairing what hurts sparks of aspected aether and a more leisurely than usual nudging at one another’s limits had left them with.
Which, predictably, has led to healing being somewhat forgotten along the way, beyond allowing spells to run their course.
Not that she has any complaints, settled comfortably as she is in Hades’ lap, one of her hands planted against the tree he lounges back against so that she might look down at and lazily study him as he seeks out kisses.
He hums a dissatisfied note over her skin as, she can only assume, the mark he has been set on leaving is swept away by his own healing craft, then most insistently resumes restoring it.
She feels him smile at the sound she makes in response, only for him to immediately desist as she sighs out his name.
Hades is so still, breath held, his face yet tucked into the crook of her neck, and she claws a painful hold against the tree rather than let herself glance down at him and prompt an explanation that he may well not be ready for.
At her hips, his fingers flex, what was little more than a soothing brush of fingers becoming something else entirely as his grip on her tightens.
He takes a breath.
And another.
And then he utters a low, “Do that again.”
It is not quite a plea. Not a command either, but an invitation with a tremor of an altogether more fragile nature running through it.
She hesitates, uncertain what it is that he means, until...
At the sound of his name murmured to the skies, sunshine spilling across her bare shoulders, he shivers and sends the brush of lips chasing after light and warmth.
They so rarely address one another by name. It has never seemed... necessary, somehow. Perhaps it has always been that she is her and he is him and that is that.
As he grazes a kiss against the line of her jaw, she finally lets herself look down at him again – lets herself watch as she utters his name again so softly that it draws from him a wordless, aching, reply, caught so willingly in thrall.
And so there is absolutely nothing else that she can think of but yielding to him another kiss and letting him coax his name from her again and again.
