Be Gay, Open a Behelit

A celebration of queerness and Berserk!

Fic: When Night Comes Down (4/4)

When Night Comes Down 4/4

In which all things must end.

Specifics: GriffithxGuts. Guts is an Apostle, IDK. Canon-typical warnings - a little heavier this time than the last two but still nothing you wouldn’t see in the series itself. A canon-divergent story that diverges so early it’s almost pre-canon. 8k for this Book, 48k for the entire story.

Short but sweet? Or well. Short but over, anyway.

Happy Pride again!  

@berserk-pride-fest / @ofdemonsandangels  

P.S.  Looking at the numbers I somehow added about 6k more words in revision what is wrong with me.

Fic: When Night Comes Down (3/4)

When Night Comes Down ¾

In which the puppet strings of destiny begin to make themselves visible.

Specifics: GriffithxGuts. Guts is an Apostle, IDK. Canon-typical warnings - a little heavier this time than the last two but still nothing you wouldn’t see in the series itself. A canon-divergent story that diverges so early it’s almost pre-canon. 12.3k for this Book, 40.3k and counting for the story to date.

We’ve got one more to go. The next one is… the shortest, but obviously also the ending.

Happy Pride again!

Part 4 next Thursday!

Fic: When Night Comes Down 2/4

When Night Comes Down 2/4

In which a suspicious mission has ripple effects. 

Specifics: GriffithxGuts. Guts is an Apostle, IDK. Canon-typical warnings. A canon-divergent story that diverges so early it’s almost pre-canon. 14.4k for this Book, 28k and counting for the story to date. 

I think this is actually the longest part, although we’ll see if that holds. Because even though it’s done I do look it over a final time before posting and when I looked this one over I somehow added 2,000 words. So who the hell knows.

Part 3 next Thursday! Happy Pride again!

TO BE CONTINUED!

“Will you be partaking in the tourney, Sir Locus?”

The question had broken Locus from his pensive thoughts. “I have not considered it, no.”

“Why is that? I know there are many who would like to see the famed Moonlight Knight in action again.” There had been a teasing lilt in Griffith’s voice.

“It would not be fair, would it not?” Locus had responded, waving slightly to the florist he had become acquainted with during his evening patrols. “I am not the mortal I was when I earned my reputation, participating would only put me at an unfair advantage above the other entrants.”

Falconia holds its first ever tourney

Oh hey there! I haven’t written anything Berserk related since GriffGuts weekend. I present you all with the Griffcus fic that’s been wasting away in my drafts for half a year now. Please enjoy, and happy Pride Fest!

“I’ve killed children for you,” Guts said, lying next to Griffith on a patch of grass. He peered up at the stars and remembered the kid’s face, the hand that reached out to him helplessly as the last trace of life faded from his eyes.

Or, Guts seeks comfort from Griffith, months after he’s killed Adonis.

Her sultry red lips curved into a smile at the sight of Charlotte’s open-mouthed stare.

“Do you like what you see?” she asked, cocking her hip.

“I—what are you?” Charlotte whispered.

“Some call me a goddess,” the woman said as she came to the foot of her bed, swaying with each step. “Others, demon.”

Charlotte receives an unexpected nighttime visitor.

Fic: When Night Comes Down (Berserk Stuff)

When Night Comes Down

“If you stand far enough outside the tapestry, you can see the many threads and paths unwalked. The points of change can be so tiny they go unnoticed at the time… though the ripples travel for centuries and more, into eternity. Yet, in the end, all paths lead to one path. There may be deviations, yes, yet still we dance that same dance, with the steps assigned to us by fate. It is inevitable. One must die to resurrect. One must fall to rise.”

Specifics: GriffithxGuts (Because I’m boring). Canon-typical warnings. A canon-divergent story that diverges so early it’s almost pre-canon. 13.4k (ignore AO3′s word count, it LIES) but it’s a little more complicated than that. This story is about 43k long, and is broken into 4 “Books.” I will post one every week. The entire thing is already written so don’t worry about it being dropped or delayed.

…I love how I never actually tell people what a story is about. I don’t know why I do that. 

Anyway, Happy Pride!
