In a couple of days, Nohr would be hosting a ball.s

My @xanlow-exchange fill for @eli-the-aro. I did prompt #2 which was “a nervous xander trying to ask out laslow; successful-ness and number of attempts and scenarios is up to author preference; bonus points if there’s dancing involved”. I hope you like it!!

Collateral Damage

Chapters: 1/1 Wordcount: 15,217 Fandom: Fire Emblem Fates Rating: Teen and Up Warnings: Temporary Character Death, Mild Violence Relationships: Xanlow (Xander/Laslow), various background relationships Characters: Xander, Laslow, Odin, various other members of the Nohrian royalty with cameos by Ryoma and Saizo Additional Tags: Mild Canon Divergence, Grief, Revelations Route, Near Future, Post-Canon, Character Study

Summary: Xander does not realize the depths of his feelings for Laslow until it is too late.

Fill for @dorkpatroller​ for the @xanlow-exchange​ for the prompt “I thought you were dead”

Also read on AO3!

“If, after the war, I were to go somewhere. Somewhere far away… If you never saw me again… Would you be angry? Would you be able to forgive me for abandoning you?”

“…Yes. I would.”

Xander had never expected Laslow to stay with him forever, had been prepared to lose him someday.

“Oh? Truly?”

“It is not your company I require. Only that you continue to draw breath. I just want you to ensure you live. Whatever your true name or appearance.”

What he had not prepared for was losing Laslow, not to a happy life in another world, but to a lonely death of the fields of battle.

Summary: Five weeks after the war ends, Xander gets ready for the transition from Crown Prince to King, when Laslow comes up to inform the blond that he won’t have as many helpers at his side as he thought. 

Five years later Xander visits a small town with his retainer, Iffis, where he stops by a tavern to get a meal before resting at a nearby inn. While there he watches the most amazing performer he’s ever seen dance on the tavern stage, a movement so familiar, yet impossible. But, could it really be…?

And here it is, my gift for galestrike, for the Xanlow Exchange 2017! For whatever reason I can’t @ tag you, so sorry about that, but I hope that this makes its way to you and that it’s satisfactory!
