FANFIC - Breathe You in like Smoke

Fandom: Final Fantasy XV

Rating: E

Pairing: Gladiolus Amicitia/Nyx Ulric, Gladiolus Amicitia/Cor Leonis/Nyx Ulric, Gladiolus Amicitia/Cor Leonis, Cor Leonis/Nyx Ulric

Summary: Gladio and Nyx attend a kink party—and it’s leather night.

Warnings: None

Notes: A very late entry for @gladiorarepairweek, for the day 7 prompt of leather, and a gift to the dear @roadsoftrial. Beta’d by the wonderful @xylianna

Attending leather night at one of Insomnia’s elite kink parties isn’t something Gladio ever saw himself doing, but now that he’s here, a combination of excitement and adrenaline courses through his veins, all of his senses heightened by the mixture.

The fact that Nyx is slowly, carefully undressing him in the lounge area of the building’s luxurious washrooms might have something to do with his excitement, too.

“Six,” Nyx breathes, stroking Gladio’s chest from neck to navel with one leather-clad palm. He hasn’t bothered to take off his riding gloves, which hints at an eagerness that delights Gladio. He continues in a louder voice, “you look even better than I thought you would, which is hard, because this has been wet dream fuel for a couple months at least.”

Gladio chuckles. “Good to know. Wait ‘til you see the bottom half.”

They don’t talk about Ignis, because Cor remembers in vivid details the eruption he caused the last time he tried. He knows, deep down, that it’s gnawing at Gladio, that their unfinished business has been weighing on him, even more so now that his head is clearer, lighter than it used to be. That’s why it had comes as a surprise, when Ignis’ name escapes Gladio’s lips over lunch, one late summer day.

(In which Cor helps Gladio mend the bridges they had no choice but to burn.)

Brave Enough To Love You

Fandom: FFXV

Pairing: Gladluna

Rating: T

Warnings: None

Summary: Gladio & Luna have loved each other for years. Will they be brave enough to admit it to each other?

Notes: As always, my thanks to the amazing @aliatori for her beta-san eyes <3  This is set in a roleswap AU in which Gladio is the Prince, Luna is the Advisor, and Noct is the Shield. For @gladiorarepairweek day 7 prompt “Devotion”. Also fulfills the 100 days prompt “I believe in you.”

Blinking in surprise, Lunafreya reached to turn on a lamp. When did it get so late? She looked her watch and winced to find today had become tomorrow while she worked her way through her email queue. Well, the rest would have to wait for tomorrow. She would do Gladio no good if she was exhausted and running on coffee fumes and prayers.

After locking up her office, she made her way to the quarters granted her at the Citadel itself. While Luna was always welcome in her room at the Nox Fleuret home, she was grateful she had the option on unexpectedly late nights like tonight. Pulling her phone from her pocket as she waked, Luna typed out a quick email to Gladio that would be delivered an hour after his morning alarm, reminding him about the special fundraiser luncheon being held tomorrow for the Galahd relief effort. She was pretty sure that he remembered - Gladio made her job easy by being so attentive to his ever-changing calendar - but a reminder never hurt.

Title: Dance With Me

Pairing: Gladio/Luna

Rating: T

Warnings: None. Just a bit of teen angst.

Summary: It’s the annual Crown City High Girl-Ask-Guy Dance, and Gladio has been turning down invitations left and right. Maybe he should just ask Luna to ask him so the other girls would go away. She’s his best friend so everything would be fine. Right?

My entry for @gladiorarepairweek, Day 7.

It might also fall under Day 6 (fake dating), but I’m not sure if it really qualifies. 😅

FANFIC - The Stars in Silhouettes

Fandom: Final Fantasy XV

Pairing: Gladiolus Amicitia/Nyx Ulric

Summary: Gladio asks Nyx on a date. Well, sort of.

Rating: M

Notes: Written for day 4 of @gladiorarepairweek for the prompt of stargazing

Watching Nyx Ulric preen for a bunch of first year Kingsglaive cadets should not be as boner-inducing as it is, especially not when he’s lecturing the group on the importance of physical stamina in regards to magic usage, though Gladio admires the way Nyx expertly straddles the line between arrogance and confidence.

He’d rather Nyx be straddling something else. Hell, Gladio’d rather be doing the straddling, but his fantasies aren’t picky…

“Heads up, Crownie!”

Gladio snatches a wooden greatsword out of the air by the hilt, silently thanking his quick reflexes to avoid being beaned in the head by Luche. Cor had probably thought being assigned as the Crownsguard liaison to a Kingsglaive training exercise was punishment for a sloppy sparring session, and in a lot of ways, he had been right. What Cor hadn’t accounted for, largely because neither he nor anyone knew about the massive crush he had on Nyx Ulric, was Nyx’s presence making the ‘punishment’ a lot more tolerable.

“Keep it up and you can be my next demonstration volunteer,” Gladio calls to Luche with a smirk.

Greatly Beloved - Chapter 4

Truth Shall Spring Out of the Earth

@gladiorarepairweek Day 4: Drunk + “I was just thinking about you” + Stargazing (in a way)

It’s been three years since the darkness fell, and the havens are fading. The hunters first noticed it, really noticed it, a few months ago, and now it’s undeniable.

But they still ward off daemons for now, and Sania has no trouble finding the dwindling glow of the nearest haven in the deepness of the dark. She makes her way toward it, and she’s so focused on guarding herself from the potential dangers all around it that she doesn’t notice the figure atop it until she’s almost there.

Make Yourself At Home

Fandom: FFXV

Pairing: Gladcrowe

Rating: E

Summary: This time Gladio could tell she was actually drinking from the way her throat moved when she swallowed. He felt sweat bead on his forehead and hoped it wasn’t too noticeable in the light. Six, he was a grown man, not a teenager.

Notes: Written for the @gladiorarepairweek Day 4 prompt “Drunk”. Also fulfills the 100 ways prompt “Take my jacket, it’s cold outside.”  Beta’d by the ever-amazing @aliatori

Walking into the bar, Gladio scanned the crowd looking for familiar faces. It had been a week, but tonight all the stars and planets had aligned to give him some downtime.

Gladio spun on his stool until his back was to the bar, leaning back against the polished mahogany lazily and sipping his cider. It was a quiet night, but that was to be expected hitting up a bar on a Tuesday. Sometimes it bothered him not having a normal schedule, but tonight was not one of those times. He didn’t mind the fact that he had his pick of places to sit, fast service, and no one bothering him.

“Hey.” Of course, think about how nice it was to be alone, and someone would join you.

Taking in the gorgeous, petite brunette before him, Gladio decided he didn’t mind being bothered. “Hey yourself.”

[fic] end of the war (strike a match)

(Short for @gladiorarepairweek Day 1 - Marriage of convenience/arranged marriage.)

Pairings: Gladio/Ravus (eventual) 

Rating: G 

“You jest at my expense,” Ravus says, voice flat. The silver-fluid grip of his hand is the only thing keeping his dinner knife from clattering uselessly to the banquet table. The handle is already dented, at a near comical angle: he’s forgotten his strength again, they might say – or he’s lost the presence of mind to care.

Greatly Beloved - Chapter 2

The Glory of This Latter House

@gladiorarepairweek Day 2: Home + “Stay.”

It’s been six years since the darkness fell, and Sania’s apartment in Lestallum is a small one-bedroom thing which she maintains with exacting care. There are few balms in this new world, and Sania’s most precious is a quiet space of her own. Well, ‘quiet’ apart from the occasional booming laugh, and ‘her own’ apart from Gladio, who has the run of the place, but those are minor distinctions.

Let the People Be Assembled

@gladiorarepairweek Day 1: Marriage of Convenience (only kind of but shhh)

It’s been eight years since the darkness fell and weekends have lost all meaning, but Prompto assures them it’s a Saturday. He keeps track, he always says, because someday things are going to be different again and it’ll be pretty silly if no one knows.

(They’ve all found bits of happiness in the long dark, and for the first time in a long time, everyone is together. Gladio ends up proposing to Sania.)
