Title: Love
Game: Path of Radiance
Pairing/characters: Elincia/Lucia
Rating: PG
Disclaimer: It's not mine.
Notes: I wrote this awhile ago...and dug it out of my flash drive. So, here. First time poster. Comments would be lovely.

I love you.

Three simple words. Three simple words that take more courage than the grandest hero Tellius has ever seen possesses. Obviously, I’ve neither the courage nor the strength to face you and say them out loud. I don’t think I could bear your rejection. I enjoy our simple friendship. Never going beyond the boundaries of Princess and Protector.

I’ve only come to watch the ending of this war. I’ve not seen the great hardships you’ve endured on your perilous journey all over our continent. I wasn’t there for the Apostle of Begnion’s approval of you and the lending of her Holy Knights. Or for the rebirth of the Serenes Forest. All I was here for was your miraculous victory over General Petrine of Daein and beyond.

I have the grace to sit quietly as you describe your feelings for the mercenary-turned-general Ike. I have the discipline to not blurt my adoration out while you worry over his seeming lack of affections. But even with grace and discipline, my heart is shattered again and again as I suffer in silence. Taking my anguish out on any unfortunate soldier of Daein in my path during battle.

When my brother asks me if there is anything the matter, all I can manage is a shake of my head, for to speak would bring a flood of emotion no being, beorc or laguz, could hope to stop. I can barely tolerate Bastian’s sympathetic looks from across the mess tent. The gentle shoulder pats I am given as he passes. He knows, only because he is rather observant, and an avid reader of romantic poems in which desperation is described in detail.

I stand in the crowd of Crimeans waiting for you to appear on the balcony of the palace. I saw Ike disappear earlier and I can only assume he’s up there with you. My suspicions are confirmed as he escorts you onto the balcony. I slip out of the crowd, I cannot watch the effortless affection between you two, even as it is you speaking of Crimea’s freedom.

As I sit on the castle wall, gazing across our healing landscape, I envision you. I see in perfect clarity you in your glittering armor the day you told us you would be out in battle. Geoffrey, Ike and I protested of course. Mine being the most vehement. I couldn’t bear something happening to you. We eventually acquiesced, seeing the futility of arguing. However,
I never strayed from your side. Not once. It was my duty, and it gave me peace of mind.

I hear my name, and know it is you before I turn around. When I gaze upon you, I cannot help but smile despite my melancholy.

“What are you doing here, milady?” I ask softly as I slide off the wall to stand before you.

“I was looking for you. Bastian said he saw you go this way,” You answer and I hear concern in your voice.

“Shouldn’t you be back at the palace? Sir Ike is no doubt wondering where you are.” I say, barely managing not to wince at the name of the captor of your attentions.

“Ah…he is busy speaking with Lady Titania,” You reply, the concern still there.

“What did you need, Princess?”

“You seem distant lately, I was wondering if something was troubling you…or if I had done something?” To hear the quiet hurt and masked apology in your tone tore at my heart.

“Oh, no, Princess, you’ve done nothing,” I say with deliberate vagueness.

“Then what is troubling you? We are friends, are we not?” Your unwillingness to give up the subject is rather uncomfortable.

“Yes, we are…friends but you needn’t worry yourself with my problems,” I say with what I hope is a reassuring smile.

“Please…tell me what’s wrong,” You plead, stepping closer and placing your hand on my shoulder. I force myself not to flinch at the unexpected contact. I never have been able to resist your eyes, and I made the mistake of looking straight into them.

“I have improper feelings for someone…”

“Who?” You prompt and I bite my lip before answering,

“You.”

You don’t seem to mind, in fact, you seem almost…happy?

“What are these…’feelings’?”

“I love you,” I whisper and my gaze drops to the cracked stone path.

“I know.”

You've Changed--Elincia x Lucia (FE9)

kurai007 — Wed, 16 Apr 2008 19:59:23 GMT

Title: You've Changed
Game: Path of Radiance
Pairing/characters: Elincia/Lucia
Rating: K+
Notes: I usually stick to Sacred Stones, but then I was all like, "Lucia/Elincia, there's a lack!" Yeah...My PC fails if that LJ cut decides not to work.

She was more sure of herself now. More independent...more...bold. It was something that Lucia had taken more notice of the days following that devastating war. It was like...the Princess had grown out of her shell, had become more...

More...

She was at a loss for words...

Lucia had noticed it before, while they were still fighting for the liberation of Crimea, but she had just finally realized the change in her. She was so courageous now; of course, she had been that way before too (when she had to live in secrecy) but now. Now was different.

Others might have looked away previously, may have not even bothered giving her another thought, but now she demanded attention. It was nearly impossible to take ones eyes off her.

It was certainly impossible for Lucia to do that. No matter the distance, her eyes would always be locked in place once she saw her wondrous emerald hair. She would be put at ease once she heard her almost ethereal voice, inhaled her intoxicating scent...

"You’re awfully quiet today, Lucia. Are you all right?" Elincia questioned, turning herself ever so slightly so she could take a peek at her knight.

Lucia, who had been in some sort of a daze, quickly snapped herself out of it and grinned sheepishly. "Oh, I’m sorry, your highness. I was just thinking..."

"About what?" She pressed, gazing happily at her. "About me?"

...!

See, that was what Lucia had been talking about. She was so confident, there was no doubting; she hadn’t even hesitated before saying that. The knight’s eyes turned downward and looked off into the clear water. "I guess you could say that."

Elincia, dipping her fingers into the fountain, remained silent. Though, a loving smile started to form on her face.

"You’ve changed, you know?" Lucia continued, raising her sight from the water so she could look at the other woman. "I’m not saying that it’s bad, or anything of that sort. I guess you could say...could say I’m a bit surprised?"

Hm...it wasn’t like her to be flustered. Not like Lucia in the least bit. However, Elincia didn’t utter a word, keeping her right hand effortlessly moving in the pool of water. She wasn’t staring at her either, her eyes were focused elsewhere.

She wanted Lucia to continue.

"You seem stronger now, my prin–no, my Queen. Brave...bold, confident...I didn’t just notice now, I’ve realized it for a while now. You told Commander Ike that you weren’t ready to be Crimea’s Queen, that you didn’t think you would ever be ready. And you appeared to be so overwhelmed with the reconstruction; every time I saw that distressed look on your face, I could have almost cried." Just where was she going with this? Lucia simply sighed to herself and shook her head, "Forgive me, I’m just rambling now. I’ve just been wanting to see this day for so long."

Then there was just silence now, save (of course) for the sound the Royal fountain was making. Lucia placed a hand on her hip and tilted her head back, staring up at the cloudless sky. Her Princess...her Queen had truly reached greater heights; it was a day that she, Geoffrey, and Bastian had all wanted to see.

"Lucia..."

Finally. "Yes, your highness?"

There was ruffling of fabric, and the sound of slippers padding on the walkway reached the blue-haired knight’s ears. And only a second had passed before Elincia was in front of her. "Thank you."

Lucia’s head dropped, "What for?"

And she merely giggled cheerfully, sprinkling a few drops of water onto the other’s face. "For waiting for so long for me to grow-up. I’ve a long way to go, that much is true, but still I thank you so very much." A small kiss was then placed on her knight’s lips. "For never giving up on me, my dear Lucia."

Elincia was never afraid to take the initiative, and that was one of the many things her Lucia adored.

"Of course, my Queen...I would gladly give up my own life before I ever give up on you..."

Title: Exploration
Pairing: Neimi/Amelia
Rating: R
Warnings: PWP, written fo a kink meme.
Disclaimer: FE8 = Not Mine.

It had started as a simple request from Amelia to Neimi to practice kissing'. Playful practice kisses turned into real ones, real kisses turned into caresses...now they lay in the woods, Amelia's armor lying beside Neimi's gauntlet, both girls blushing like crazy.

"I...I'm sorry, I didn't mean for it to get so out of hand...!" Amelia stammered.

"No, I'm the one who..." Neimi hid her face in her hands. "You asked me to practice kissing, you trusted me and I took advantage of it...!"

Amelia gently pried the archer's hands away from her face.

"Neimi, you didn't take advantage of me!" She blushed harder. "I...actually liked it...your hands, they felt good..."

"S-so did yours..." Neimi bit her lip. "So...did you want to..."

"Only if you do!" Amelia smiled. Giggling nervously, Neimi placed her hand on the other girl's breast, filling her palm with its warmth. The soldier gasped, letting the new sensation course through her body.

"Is that good...?" Neimi asked.

"Mmhmm..." Wanting to return the favor, Amelia began to trace patterns on Neimi's breast with the very tips of her fingers. Her other hand rested tentatively on Neimi's thigh.

"Wait..." Neimi stood up for a moment to slip her panties off. "T-they were...ah, I thought they might be in the way..."

"In that case..." Amelia quickly removed her own undergarments. "There..."

Feeling bolder now, Neimi lowered her head to Amelia's breast, lightly licking the nipple. She slipped a hand down between the soldier's legs, tracing her lower lips with the very tip of her finger.

"Aaie!"

"D-did I do something wrong...?"

"No...do it again, it felt so wonderful..." Amelia panted, grasping Neimi's shoulder. Neimi repeated the action, then let her finger slide between the folds, exploring while her lips and tongue worked their magic on the soldier's nipples.

Not wanting this to be a one-sided affair, Amelia slid her free hand between Neimi's legs, running her fingertips experimentally over the mound.

"Ohh!" Neimi moaned around Amelia's nipple, moving her finger faster. Amelia's own finger found the archer's clit and began to rub, slowly and gently.

Amelia didn't know how long they'd been at it when she suddenly felt her body tense up, her inner walls tightening on Neimi's finger. She threw her head back and gave a little shriek. Neimi would have pulled back in shock if she hadn't been caught in the throes of her own pleasure.

They collapsed onto the forest floor, panting, their faces flushed.

"T-that was..." Neimi smiled. "Well, it was strange, but...I could..."

"I-I wouldn't mind doing that again sometime..." Amelia said, resting her head on Neimi's shoulder. Neimi sighed with relief, wrapping an arm across her friend as they fell asleep.

Title: Burning Shrubs and Riverside Conversations
Game: Rekka
Pairing/characters: Serra/Priscilla
Rating: G
Notes: VERY light shoujo ai. Written for the 16candles_fics challenge comm.

It was another ordinary day for Eliwood's army, and Serra was brushing her hair and admiring her reflection in the stream.

"Ah, those poor men will hardly be able to keep their eyes off me today," she snickered to herself as she tied her hair into its usual bouncy pigtails. She loved to imagine being surrounded by admirers, blushing like a schoolgirl as she tried to pick the person she loved the most. They'd shower her with gifts, make her head spin with compliments, fight each other over who loved her the most...

A sudden snap broke Serra's train of thought just then, and she turned around to see a nearby shrub on fire.

"Aiiee!" she yelped. "Bandits! I must warn the others, they'll be so grateful and Lord Hector will-"

"Serra?!"

Recognizing the voice, Serra turned to her right. Priscilla stood next to the burning shrub, Fire tome in her hand and a sheepish look on her face.

"Of all people! I never expected someone like you to be a pyromaniac!" Serra gasped, half-kidding. Priscilla laughed nervously.

"I'm not. I was practicing casting anima spells and..." She shuffled her feet. "I went a little overboard."

"A little?! You're lucky it was only a shrub!" Serra grabbed a nearby bucket, dipped it into the stream, and flung the contents at the blaze. "There. Next time, maybe you should practice casting fire spells while it's raining," she grumbled.

"I'm really sorry," Priscilla said. "Did I frighten you?"

"If by frighten you mean scared half to death, then yes," Serra said. "I thought you were a bandit! I was about to tell the others we were under attack!"

"Then it's a good thing I spoke up when I did." Priscilla smiled wryly. "Once again, I'm very sorry I scared you."

You should be, Serra wanted to retort, but Priscilla's smile made her forget about being annoyed. "It's okay. I'm sorry I almost got the entire army over there to fight without realizing it was you," she said, half-kidding. Priscilla paled.

"Would you really have done that?" she asked nervously. Serra didn't know whether to laugh at the troubadour's inability to detect humor, or feel bad for sounding so serious.

"Oh, of course not!" she said. "Well, no more than Lord Eliwood...since he would've told me whether or not there was a need to fight, of course!" she added quickly. Priscilla smiled, relieved.

"Good." Her gaze drifted to the Lightning tome at Serra's side. "I see you're just learning to use magic, too?"

"Yeah, Lucius has been helping me out for a while," Serra said.

"Erk's been helping me, but I'm thinking of giving him the day off so he can relax. He does tend to overwork himself," Priscilla said. Serra almost went off on a rant about her own experiences with Erk's obsessive study habits, but thought better of it. Weird, I've never had any qualms about that before...

"Hey, maybe we can practice together tonight," Priscilla suggested. Serra blinked.

"Eh?"

"Well, I overheard Raven and Lucius planning to spend some time together tonight," Priscilla said, trying to fight back a pang of jealousy at the thought. "And since I'm giving Erk the night off, I thought we could work together and show each other what we learned."

To her horror, Serra found herself blushing at the offer. She'd always treated Priscilla as a rival for Erk's attentions and the army's "main" healer, but this was the first time they'd ever actually talked despite having shared a tent for several months. And Priscilla was hardly the tempestuous redheaded Jezebel Serra's mind often made her out to be.

I've had it wrong all this time, she thought, both relieved that Priscilla wasn't truly a threat, and horrified that...well, she'd been wrong.

"Sure, why not?" she finally said.

"Great! Meet me at our tent after dinner tonight," Priscilla said. "Thank you, Serra. You know, I'm glad we talked. I've been sharing a tent with you for so long and I feel like we hardly know each other. Maybe tonight we can work on that, as well."

"Yeah...that'd be great!" Serra laughed nervously. "See you then!"

Priscilla went back to camp, and Serra ran back to the river to splash her face with cold water. What had just come over her?! "The last thing I need is another crush, and on a girl no less," she muttered.

As soon as the words left her mouth, her stomach tied in a knot.

"Wait a minute! I'm not...I've never even entertained the thought of...!"

She buried her head in her hands.

Great. Just what I needed.

This was going to be a long day.

Title: The Distant Plains
Game: Rekka no Ken
Pairing/characters: Lyn/Florina
Rating: G
Notes: This is rather old, wrote it back in 2004.

"There you go...all set for the night."

Florina smiled as she finished filling the water trough. It had been a long day, and all the traveling they'd done had been rough on everyone's horses, wyverns and pegasi. Thankfully, they still had a day left to rest and prepare for the coming battles.

"Sleep well," she said, gently stroking the winged horse's mane. She picked up her satchel and headed back to the tent she was sharing with Lyn.

Upon her arrival, though, she noticed the tent was empty. Her heart skipped a beat-could something have happened to Lyn?! No, she thought, telling herself to calm down. She'd probably gone to the stream for a bath, or Sain had dragged her along for a quick trip to the armory.

Florina put down her pack and made sure the tent was shut securely before she walked through the forest, in search of her friend. It wasn't too unusual for Lyn to go off on her own sometimes, but Florina still worried. Given their current situation, it wasn't that safe to be wandering about at night...she could only hope no enemies were walking around as well.

Suddenly, she heard rustling in the distance. Florina tensed. Bandits? Black Fang members? She kicked herself for not having brought her lance with her. And Lyn most likely hadn't brought any weapons either-what if the enemies attacked her?! Florina's heart raced; she wanted to run back to the tent and grab her lance, but her feet were frozen in place. She held her breath as she heard the noise again...followed by a sigh.

'That voice...'

A flash of teal became visible, and Florina just about fainted with relief.

Lyn.

Florina moved closer, and her relief turned to worry as she saw Lyn lying back against a tree, hugging her knees to her chest and looking ahead into the distance. Even without seeing the expression on her face, it was clear that the Sacaen noblewoman was depressed. Quietly, Florina slipped over to the tree and sat down.

"Lady Lyndis?"

Lyn jumped slightly, then sighed with relief when she noticed who it was.

"Florina," she said. "You startled me..."

"I'm sorry."

"What are you doing here? It's getting dark...it's too dangerous to be wandering around here alone without your weapons," Lyn said. Florina smiled a little. Even with her own problems, Lyn always managed to worry about her first and foremost.

"I'm sorry...I just noticed you weren't in the tent and got a little worried," she said. "Especially when I noticed you hadn't taken your sword with you."

"So I guess I can't exactly say anything about your lack of weapons." Lyn sighed. "I'm sorry I worried you," she said, edging closer to her friend and sighing deeply.

"Lady Lyndis?" Florina looked worriedly at her. "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing...nothing that can be fixed, anyway," Lyn said. "I was just thinking..."

"About the plains?"

"Pardon?"

"You really want to return to the plains, don't you, Lyn?" Florina said. "Don't try to deny it. I know you too well by now...I know how much you loved the plains, and how you'd leave the castle and gaze out from the hill at Caelin."

"...You're right..." Lyn uncurled from her ball a little and brushed her bangs away from her face. "I really do miss the plains, I want to return there. But thinking of my grandfather's condition...I can't leave him. I don't want to, without me there's no one to watch over the castle as long as he's not well," she said. Florina nodded.

"I understand...but you shouldn't force yourself to do anything you don't want to, or hold yourself back from what you really want," she said.

"I know, but-"

"I'm sure Lord Hausen would understand if you told him how you felt," Florina continued. "Living on the plains just seems right for you, Lyn."

It was then that Lyn noticed a significant difference in how Florina was speaking to her.

"Hmm, guess what?" she said.

"Eh?"

"You've stopped calling me Lyndis."

"Ah...!"

"And you're speaking to me much more frankly," Lyn said.

"Eek! I-I'm sorry!" Florina blushed, looking away. "I-I'm such a scatterbrain, I-"

"Florina." Lyn cupped the girl's chin in her hand, causing Florina to slowly turn her face towards Lyn's. "Don't..."

"Lyn..."

"I thought that was the way it had to be with us...but it only made me feel miserable. I can't take this anymore," Lyn said. "I've been so lonely all this time...leaving the plains, and my best friend treating me like a noble stranger..."

"Lyn..."

Lyn let her hand drop down to Florina's shoulder.

"What does rank have to do with anything? I'm still me, and you're still you," Lyn whispered. "Can't we go back to the way it used to be? Please...just talk to me normally, like you always did."

Florina reached up and placed her hand over Lyn's.

"I'm sorry, Lyn," she whispered. "I had no idea you felt that way...can you ever forgive me?"

"Florina..." Lyn wrapped her arm around the other girl's shoulders, pulling her close. "You didn't do anything wrong. But I do feel that way...and now you know. So from now on..."

"I promise," Florina said. "No more talking to you like a noble stranger."

"Good." Lyn smiled a little. "Also, after this battle has ended, I do intend to return to the plains. As much as I've grown to love Caelin, I couldn't imagine myself living there forever," she said.

"I understand," Florina said. "Do you know when you'll be leaving?"

"I'm not sure yet," Lyn said. "I want to stay with my grandfather for a while...I'm sure he will understand, but I want to give him time to get used to the idea and to find someone who will look after the castle in my absence."

"That makes sense," Florina said.

"But one thing's for sure." Lyn lowered her gaze so that she was looking straight into her eyes. "Florina, when that day does come...will you come with me?" she asked. "I won't be able to pay you like I do now, but I still want you by my side for as long as possible..."

"Lyn..." Florina smiled. "Yes. I will come with you...if you'd be willing to eventually come to Ilia with me, or take many trips there," she said.

"That's a little far off...we'll cross that bridge when we come to it," Lyn laughed.

"You're right." Florina buried her head against Lyn's shoulder. "But my answer is still yes."

"Thank you...after all the time we've spent together, I can't imagine being without you," Lyn said. "The battle against Lundgren one year ago...you joining Caelin's army...all the time spent with Eliwood and Hector and the others...all that time, you've never once left my side."

"I'm happiest when I'm with you, Lyn. It matters not where we go...as long as I'm by your side," Florina said. "It's because of you that I've overcome so many of my weaknesses...that I'm no longer the weak little Florina you rescued from bandits back then."

"It wasn't just my doing, Florina. You got this far by hard work and determination," Lyn said. "I guess I owe you an apology for being a worrywart. I've always been so protective of you, but you've more than proven you're capable of holding your own out there."

"I am..." Florina smiled. "But still, it's...nice to know you're always right behind me, looking out for me..."

"It's what I'm there for. And you've done the same for me plenty of times," Lyn said. "Let's face it, Florina. We're just that good of a team-on the battlefield, and in life!"

"In life..." Florina echoed. "Lyn...let's always be together no matter what happens or where life takes us," she whispered.

"Of course we will." Lyn smiled, hugging the girl closer as she felt the weight lifting from her chest. "Thank you, Florina," she said. "I feel much better now.

"I'm glad I could help." Florina smiled, then yawned a little.

"Getting tired?" Lyn asked.

"A little," Florina admitted.

"Me too." Lyn gazed at the slowly darkening sky. Only a few traces of light lingered against the deep purple backdrop. "We should get back before the others get worried," she said.

"Yeah." Florina nodded...but made no move to stand up. Lyn giggled.

"Too tired to move?" she teased. Florina blushed.

"Ah...I'm sorry! It's just so comfortable like this," she said.

"It's okay. You don't have to get up, then," Lyn said. Florina blinked.

"Wha-yiii!" She squealed as the swordswoman suddenly lifted her into her arms. "Lyn!"

"There. If anyone asks, just say your leg fell asleep," Lyn laughed. Florina giggled and tousled the ends of Lyn's ponytail.

"My knight in fabric armor," she murmured. Lyn smiled.

"I'm no knight...I would've insisted on carrying you even if you weren't tired," she whispered, leaning to press a light kiss to the other girl's lips. Florina blushed, then smiled contentedly.

"Lyn..."

She closed her eyes, leaning her head against Lyn's shoulder and wrapping her arms around her neck.

The walk back to camp was completely silent, but neither girl minded.

At that moment, they didn't need words to express their feelings towards one another.
