Summary:

Farnese develops an obsession with Guts.

Modern Gym AU

(Explicit, for quietface on Ao3 & @berserkexchanges)

Snippet:

“Serpico?” she asked, raising an eyebrow at the screen.

His blue eyes flicked up to hers. “Yes?”

“Hypothetically, everyone legally must have a last name, correct?”

He fell silent for a moment, tapping quickly on his phone before slowly shaking his head. “No, the Midlandian government allows mononyms.” His eyes narrowed slightly. “Why?”

Of course it does.

She waved off his concern, glancing down at her watch. “I only have about two minutes.” She pursed her lips at the screen, opening the camera app once again. “So if you don’t mind –”

“Yes, his legal name is actually Guts. But he goes by ‘the Black Swordsman’ online.”

My @berserkexchanges Valentine's Day exchange gift for @slident , featuring my very own OCs: Sribbif, Sutz and Flavius Valerius Constantinus the First. Any resembelance with real people or fictional characters is pure coincidence.

Below you may find a comic meant to accompany the former illustration:

[enisywrites]

The queen of hearts (in his house of cards) (5094 words, berserk)

In which Charlotte goes to a ball, talks to a ghost, and comes to terms with Griffith and his priorities. Written for the Berserk Valentine's Day exchange.

Excerpt:

“You left me alone all evening.”

“You were in disguise, milady,” says Griffith reasonably.

“Even so,” she pouts, “even so, you should have recognized me! From my gait, or my curtsy, or the way I nodded to the music.” Oh, this is all quite childish, isn’t it? But something tells her that her demand is not entirely without cause — because, after all… “After all, I recognized you.”

My fic from the recent Like a Truck exchange @berserkexchanges for @viridienna whom I adore and felt so honored to write for. This features the extremely rare Guts x Charlotte pairing, which was a tremendous pleasure to explore. I hope you'll give it a try!
