    Summary

    Putting up with Seifer’s antagonistic bouts of unchecked emotion only pushed me to get stronger... The thought of beating that guy and wiping that smug grin off his face served as a good motivator, and he made for a good sparring partner—I wouldn’t exactly call him my “rival”, or whatever weird thing that self-described “romantic” guy called it... But Seifer’s shitty attitude made me want to train harder to make something of myself, that’s all I needed to know. I still don’t understand what his weird obsession with me is...

    One time when he was being an asshole he called me an “Ice Queen”, but... Hearing that instantly made my mind go back to that snowfield in Trabia, on that cursed joint training mission with the Gardens... I always thought it was a fever dream brought on by hypothermia—a dying woman in a heavy fur cloak reaching out to me, a blinding snowstorm, the harsh sound of the wind... then I woke up fevered in the village inn. Sometimes I still dream of a howling arctic wind... I don’t know if that really happened, or what it means...

    [Branching timeline of the events of FFVIII, after a dying Sorceress in the snowfields of Trabia found a young boy to give her desperate hopes to.]

    Summary

    The banquet is supposed to be boring. Then Yuuri has a little too much champagne, and Phichit is just trying to be a good friend.

    Unfortunately, being a good friend now involves damage control, crowd management, and physically dragging a half-dressed GPF-level disaster back to the hotel before he challenges anyone else to a dance battle, strips again, or proposes something life-altering.

    (He does not succeed in preventing the life-altering part.)

    Now with morning after shenanigans!

    Summary

    Shepard had had a tough life. She found some good friends and has made some annoying enemies. Her life is complicated but enjoyable. Routine mission after mission, working up the N ranks. Her most recent mission to Akuze seems routine, and she even met a cute turian before she shipped out. Looking forward to meeting up with him after her mission, Shepard heads out, not knowing how this one mission will shape her future with the Alliance. Her best friend, Toombs, seems excited to work with her again. “At least the planet has a cool name. Akuze. Definitely sounds like something I could get tattooed on me once we get back. Maybe come up with a cool story about how I won a fight there."
