“Well, well, what do we have here?” Niles silkily asked, walking up to Odin. “Isn’t it your day off? I’d have imagined you still asleep.”
Odin grunted, “Doing preparations.”
Niles folded his arms over his chest. Odin continued to knead the dough, yawning without covering his mouth.
“Preparations?” Niles repeated. “For what?”
“Spring Festival,” Odin said through his yawn.
The Spring Festival? Niles mentally ran through the week and frowned. “The Nohrian Spring Festival is in two weeks.”
“Yeah, we know,” Selena sharply said."
Niles is attempting to go about his day doing his tasks but the Trio keep showing up doing something. What that something is, Niles isn't certain. Or, Niles witnesses the Trio preparing to celebrate a Ylissian Tradition. They do not explain that to Niles.

Happy (early) birthday, @someobscurereference !!! I know I’m Super Early but I finished your first gift fic and decided to post it now. I hope you like it! Thanks for the prompt! I was already on a kick with the Trio celebrating a Ylissian Festival in Nohr but now I got to do it with a different flavour. I hope you enjoy it!!!
I got zero scholarships saved zero dollar. The first to go to college to study an arrrtt. I’m living at home with my life stress and my coffee. Just me and the DLSR asking gee Grace what will you be. #obscurereference#me#OOTD#FASHION#PINK#BLONDE#UMM#PAH

One shot. Modern AU.
Owain swallowed. “Do you want me to be that company?”
Good opening. Niles toothily smiled. “We’d love it. Only if you want it too.”
Another long stare before Owain finally spoke. “A threesome.” He blurted out. “That’s what you’re suggesting.”
Leo coughed lightly in shock. “That’s… a very blunt way to put it.”
“But it is the way you’re putting it, right?”
“Err… yes.” Leo muttered.
“Absolutely.” Niles said at the same time.
Leo and Niles believe their extra addition to their bed is a one time thing. They were wrong. (Or Owain worms his way into a married couple’s lives.)

Summary:
One shot. Gift Fic. AU: The Effects of Drinking Dragon Blood Straight from the Source
"If anyone asked Laslow to describe the voice he’d cite tales he’d heard in some port towns around Ylisse and Plegia there were stories about sirens. He could remember his father reciting some of the tales as he lay in his warm bed with a different name. According to the tales the creatures were from the water and lured people to their death. By drawing them to the ocean with sweet promises and alluring voices many drowned with nothing but empty voices in their ears."
Trio drank dragon blood (from Anankos) and are compelled/ drawn back to him (because everything that belongs to Anankos will eventually return to him). Or: Perhaps Camping Outside at Night isn't a Smart Move for Laslow.

Hello everyone! This is a short, early birthday gift to my lovely friend and co-writer @someobscurereference who I am always so grateful for. The actual birthday fic will follow soon so please stay tuned!
So, I just posted a list of some of my own fics that “Don’t Get a Lot of Attention” and if you’re interested in that, the link so that post is HERE.
However, this is Fanfic Writer Appreciation Day and just talking about myself feels self centered. That’s why I’m making another list of my own personal “Top Ten Fics My Lovely Co-writer @someobscurereference Has Written”.
To make a few disclaimers, first off, all of her fics are Amazing and picking only Ten is a Challenge. Next, these are all based on my opinion. Finally, I had to set some rules to the fics. I’m not including any fic she wrote specifically for me as a gift (because obviously I’m going to like something I prompted her to write for me) and two I’m staying away from fics we co-wrote together.
I’m going to put these under the cut and like the last post I’m adding links to the fics. Now, in order of when they were posted...
1. you’re not poison but I’ll still drink you down (FE Fates)
What I love the most about this fic is the playing with the Trio having different biology from the people in Nohr and Making It Funny As Hell. I absolutely LOVE how this fic plays out with Laslow’s perspective VS. Xander’s perspective in what just happened. The additional Leo bits at the end were especially hilarious and I loved them!
2. under the knife (FE Fates)
Another fic tackling the idea that the Trio have different biology from the people in Nohr what I like the most about this fic is the angle in which that idea is explored. Writing the fic in terms of Laslow talking with (his son) Siegbert was unique and in my mind, soft and sweet. The parent/child relationship angle was a lot of fun and I really enjoyed it!
3. last night i dreamed of you (FE Fates)
Not only is this fic a Time Loop Fic and thus one of the BEST IDEAS EVER for a fic, it follows the Royals/Niles aware of the loop and the Trio not aware. This subversion of the idea and playing around with expectations is absolutely wonderful and my favourite part of this entire fic. The Trio as the clueless ones (even though they’re the source of said loop) coupled with the Royals and Niles aware is just Amazing. So good!!!
6. the definition of insanity (FE Fates)
What I like best about this fic is the exploration of pre-canon and the characterisation of the Trio. Their determination to end Anankos as well as the running thread of Laslow wearing a scarf to hide the wound from Anankos really made this entire fic for me. (Also scarves in particular to hide neck wounds give me a Wolf Among Us vibe for me and that’s always 100% up my alley.)
7. Dark Things Grew (FE Fates)
This fic is a wonderful exploration in some awesome horror imagery/ideas/tropes all while telling the story with a large cast and multiple views. However, this story keeps a tight focus and every detail is so well written. This fic has a lot of heart and soul and passion put into it and it’s an absolute delight to read.
8. (i) want a long rest (FE Fates)
Having the idea of the Trio as Immortal is the central idea in this fic series and one of my favourite ideas. I really love how immortality is played with and explored in this fic. The other parts to this series are just as good and I recommend it all.
9. stay cool, it’s just a kiss (FE Fates)
By far one of my most favourite tropes are: friends who are casually touchy-feely with each other and other people seeing that and misunderstanding it. I love the miscommunication trope of this fic so, so, so much! It’s added effect of the reader knowing that Niles/Leo saw Odin and Laslow (and their confusion) really helps drive a silent tension and drama, hidden slightly out of sight but still very present in the fic.
10. Home (Is Where The Heart Is) (FE Fates)
Not only does this fic deal with one of my most favourite ideas for the Trio in the Fates world (that they’ll somehow be drawn back to their world), this fic is also the first fic of ObscureReference’s that I ever read. The imagery and thoughts of all the characters are spot on and explored well. The mix of sad, desperate, as well as happiness and joy are all show cased well in this story. However, the reason why this fic is so important to me is because this fic is what kick started my friendship with @someobscurereference and I am eternally grateful.
