Summary: When Sin destroys the village of Mist, another summoner arrives in Spira and joins Yuna's pilgrimage.
Notes: For runicmagitek ♥ Enjoy your chocolate box gift, Runic! <3 From your prompt: "Instead of Tidus, Rydia stumbles into Spira and becomes Yuna's guardian, even though she also can summon creatures, albeit far differently." I hope you enjoy! This story is based on Rydia as she is in World of Final Fantasy, without going through the rapid aging process that she does in FFIV.

As she bowed to Auron, she saw a wisp of green fabric behind him. Yuna let her eyes travel upward, from the high boots to the emerald leotard with gold detailing, a cape clasped to the thin straps at the girl’s shoulders. And her hair stood out from the crowd, a vibrant shade of green, as if her outfit were designed to match.

“And this one,” Auron said, gesturing to the girl, “comes with me.”

“Hi!” the girl said, flicking green hair out of her eyes. “I’m Rydia!”

fic: another tale of the american dream (lost)

Title: Another Tale of the American Dream
Fandom: Lost
Characters: James "Sawyer" Ford, Juliet Burke
Pairing: Sawyer/Juliet
Rating: Teen and Up
AO3 Tags: Established Relationship, Mid-Canon, DHARMA Initiative, Implied Sexual Content, Stranded in the 1970s, Fluff, Reading, cursing
Summary: Two bookworms, a bed, and not having to pretend to be someone they're not.
Notes: For ~isquinnabel. I haven't written for Lost in ages, but Juliet/Sawyer was one of my favorite ships. The part that struck me the most in your request was the idea of them bonding over a shared love of books. I hope you enjoy your treat! <3

This was a favorite game of theirs, late at night when no one else from the Dharma camp was awake to listen in. No need to put up a front, no need to pretend to be something he wasn’t - here, he was just James, and she was just Juliet, and nothing came between them anymore.

Summary: Sometimes home isn't a place, it's the person you can return to again and again, a bright spot in a world recovering from darkness. For Celes, that bright spot is Terra.
Notes: For ~FireEye! Enjoy your Chocolate Box gift! The prompt of yours that resonated most with me was Celes and Terra, "just seeing them eventually happy far past the hurt and pain would be wonderful." I hope this fits the bill for you, and thank you for requesting it!

Having been here several times over the years, a few people nodded to her as she passed, while others did a double take at the light armor she wore and her sword at her side. Creatures still roamed the countryside and Celes would never be caught defenseless. Her cloak billowed behind her as she walked, the royal seal of Figaro clasped at her shoulder, but Celes wasn’t here on business.

The orphanage had its own building now, a modest two story house with plenty of windows. A vegetable garden filled the front yard, tomatoes on the vine almost ready to pick, mirroring the strawberry plants on the other side. Already, she could hear voices coming from the backyard. Bypassing the door, Celes made her way around the side of the building, a route she knew by heart.
