Commission for @durinswizardwheezes of their characters, Amy and Teresa!

Please don’t repost unless you’re the client

[sapphireswimming]

with a thousand pinpricks of distant light, ch 2 (a Gundam 00 fic)

Sentence-stories, with canon-typical violence and spoilers through the entire show (on ao3) (on ffn)

This chapter is based on prompts from @durinswizardwheezes and @hawk-in-a-tree

.

11. Official

Sumeragi drinks even more heavily than normally the night their existence is revealed, as Aeolia Schindberg’s century-gone voice rings out across every news channel around the entire globe – “We call ourselves simply ‘Celestial Being’” – and she tries to drown the certainty that despite the decades of planning, they’re not… that she’s not up to the impossible task he’s entrusted them with.

12. Cane

Billy turns away from the desk at the sound of the door opening – a plea already upon his lips for Graham to please leave him alone, this really won’t get done any sooner no matter how many times you ask – only to scramble to attention, straightening piles of notes as soon as the impact of a stout wooden cane against the floor meant it was The Professor instead.

13. Photograph

She’d known that Chris had taken a lot of pictures over the years, pulling out her terminal to snap selfies with Feldt far more frequently than she’d thought necessary, but it wasn’t until one of the Haros helped recover the backups of her camera roll that Feldt realized just how many she’d taken – candid photos of the crew around the Ptolemy, adjusting to gravity or chilling in the mess hall, hundreds of the standard touristy shots whenever they visited a new city on Earth, evidence of the birthday parties she’d so enthusiastically planned around the security protocols, and a picture of every single outfit she’d ever asked Feldt to try on during one of their shopping sprees, not a single one deleted no matter how far back she scrolled.

14. Crock Pot

There wasn’t much that Saji could do for Kinue, given everything she struggled and scraped to provide for him, but then again, it turned out that it didn’t take much to let the crock pot turn a jar of sauce and some diced vegetables into an aromatic, filling dinner in the time between his leaving for school and Kinue getting off of work.

15. Cone

No matter how fervently Lasse denies it, Lichty forever maintains that the fastest anyone in Celestial Being has ever seen him respond to a threat was the time Chris shrieked loudly enough to be heard from the mess hall to the hangar because she’d just learned that Feldt had never had an ice cream cone.

16. Field

Allelujah opens his mouth to call for Marie when he catches sight of her expression – wide-eyed awe as she slowly spins around in the field of golden flowers beneath a brilliantly cloudless blue sky – and he smiles and says nothing as he adjusts the pack on his shoulder and walks back to join her.

17. Mesa

Ian had seen a lot of the world by the time he and Joyce joined up with Celestial Being – moving from one relief station to another in jungles, deserts, and everything in between – and he’s never once regretted it, but whenever he realizes that one of these kids on their strike team has never seen a cactus, or a waterfall, or a flat-topped mesa, and likely never will, he can’t help but understand their tactical forecaster’s drinking habits a little better.

18. Mirror

Lasse stares at his reflection in the mirror – harrowed and hollow-cheeked, with deep bags under his eyes despite weeks in a healing pod – and he thinks the others will worry enough as it is, so he takes a deep breath and decides not to bother anyone else with the finer details of the new scar across his brow, the one that will never truly heal, the one that will end up killing him, in the end.

19. String

Ribbons knows full well just how ridiculous his name is, but he never changes it, even though it would be incredibly easy to reinvent himself with a few changed bits of data; it’s his own private joke, as he smiles politely and introduces himself to Alejandro, to know that Ribbons is the one pulling the strings behind it all.

20. Lighthouse

Setsuna owes them his life, Ribbons and Nena Trinity, but once he knows the nature of his saviors, the true intent of the figures piloting the bright shining Gundams suspended in the sky far above the destruction drowning him, once he knows the twisted hearts of the one who led him on the path to becoming a Meister, and the one who allowed him to continue walking it when the world powers tried with all their might to snuff him out, he does not think he can ever forgive them.

Superphantom Saturdays #16

Afternoon everyone! How do yall feel about horror? Considering what fandoms you’re in, I’m gonna assume it’s a solid yes, which is why I’ve got;

“Amphisbaena” by @durinswizardwheezes   

(here on ffn)

This one has. SO much. Lore especially, angst, horror, fear, and an ending that you might see coming but still leaves you shook. Excellent concept, like nothing I’ve seen before, with such clever and unsettling narration. Mind the tags, ofc, but holy crap you’ve gotta read this one. 

Go ahead and follow the author as well, they’ve got a bunch of Harry Potter, Gundam 00, a bunch of other animes, and a few other DP and SPN fics you should check out! Their blog is pretty active too (via queue? I’m actually not sure how queues work haha.), and though I’m not in any other fandoms with them, there’s a ton of awesome stuff to look at there. I’d recommend going to their ao3 page and check out what fandoms they’ve written for. 

And, as always, leave a review! Show your authors some love, feedback makes a ton of difference in fandom. Let creators know you like their work and keep creativity going. It really can mean the world to someone. 

If you’d like to be featured on a future Superphantom Saturday, or have any other content you’d like to share, go ahead and dm or message me. I’d love to talk to you!! Have a great day, stay safe, and thank you for interacting with this blog. See you next time! <3

TELL ME ABOUT THESE COLLAB ONES TOO G00 d&d AND Pokemon GO in Gotham

G00 d&d

This was actually basedon 2 ideas. one where the g00 crew plays D&D, though I think those notes are on another doc, and where it’s a full on D&D AU

No snippets have been written but we got tons of ideas for their classes and races. 

Most important thing is that Tieria is a paladin and a Tank of course (also all Innovades are changelings) -- Pokemon GO in Gotham.

This one is mostly schenanigans and a plotbunny. 

Basically what would happen the summer of 2016 when pokemon GO got released? Includes how the batfamily need to make sure pokemon trainers don’t get themselves killed by wandering into dangerous areas, ESPECIALLY tourists that come to get ghost types. Dick is Team instinct, Jason is Valor and Tim is Mystic.

TELL ME ABOUT THESE ienzo fic (kh) AND winds somewhere safe to sea (p3)

“ienzo fic,” tentatively titled “where do i find meaning in these scars i could not choose,” is a post-KH3 Ienzo character study focused on Ienzo’s efforts to navigate his fraught relationship with his own personhood and his feelings of guilt over the events surrounding the fall of Radiant Garden. A snippet:

Even so, he still longed for the kind of emotional connection with his previous life that the others from Radiant Garden have. This Ienzo, this human researcher who works in Radiant Garden, feels like a stranger. For nearly as long as he could remember, he’d been the Nobody Zexion, the Shadow-Walking Schemer, No. 6 of Organization XIII. He’d been struggling so long to get a Heart that now that he had one, he had no idea what to do with it.

“winds somewhere safe to sea” is a post-canon Persona 3 fic with some P5 crossover, centered on an adult Junpei. He’s at Mitsuru’s beach house along with his baseball team and a few of the Shadow Operatives (namely, Aigis and some of the PT) when Minato washes up on the beach, still the same age as he was at the end of P3. Junpei has to face up to a grief he thought he’d moved past, and Minato wakes up to a world that moved on without him.

(note: this fic is on pause because I hit a bit of a dead end with it but i’m in love with the premise)

A snippet:

The crowd of high school baseball players parted, revealing a tiny figure lying on the beach, coated in sand, seaweed, and bits of broken shell.

Even as dirty as he was, the blue hair, long-retired version of the Gekkoukan High boy’s uniform, and vintage mp3 player were unmistakable.

For a second, Junpei thought he was hallucinating. But all of the kids were staring in the same direction he was.

TELL ME ABOUT THIS ONE May his heart be your guiding key (kh)

hehe, it is  Kingdom hearts fic I’ve had in my WIP folder for literal years. I need to get around to finish it sometime soon.    AU where Aqua ends up on the beach at the same time as Sora and Riku are there at the end of KH2

Excerpt: “I can see you holding back a flinch, Riku” Sora pouted. “You could barely walk earlier,” he added. “I wouldn't say barely...”Sora gave a snort. “You got stabbed” “Only a little bit” “How do you get stabbed only a little bit?” “I don’t know. but it happened,” Riku playfully shoved at Sora’s shoulder.

the faint colors of our future

A/N: This is a commission for @durinswizardwheezes, involving her OC Kimura Satsuki from the fic a world that’s so much brighter than it seems “interacting with the kids, Hanekoma, or the UG in general in some capacity.” 

I’m pulling pretty hard on some of her headcanons here (which I do happen to share, but she’s developed a lot more than me), in particular related to Josh’s attitude toward clothing. Also, there’s cameo appearances from autistic!Neku and nonbinary!Rhyme.

Title is from a translation of “Remind Blue,” the same song that gave a world that’s so much brighter than it seems its title.

the faint colors of our future

To be honest, Kimura Satsuki wasn’t that big on coffee. She doesn’t dislike it, but she could go without it for weeks and not really miss it. Still, she’d probably bought more in the last few months than in the last three years together, while spending time at WildKat.

Today in particular was a red-letter day, one she got to spend crowded into a booth with all of the kids she’s come to think of as Neku’s friends.

Normally, one or two were missing. Shiki, Eri, and Rhyme had a full docket of extracurriculars. Beat spent a fair amount of time grounded for inadequate reasons or in detention because teachers kept taking his questions as signs of “authority issues.” Sometimes, Neku just didn’t show up, and none of the kids seemed surprised. And when Mr. Hanekoma said that Josh was “otherwise occupied” …well, Satsuki tried not to think about what he was probably doing.

But today, they were all present. Shiki had a huge sketchbook open on the table, and Eri was lining up swatches next to various sketches with painstaking care.

“We’re mostly working on streetwear right now,” Eri said. “So a lot of it’s made for teens and people in their early twenties. But I think the next set of designs might be formalwear. Eri’s been wanting to work with more artificial fabrics.”

Satsuki nodded. She loved the creativity, but she could barely keep up with these two. She’d thought she knew an average amount about fashion, but Eri and Shiki used so many terms she’d never heard before. Who knew there were so many different types of sleeves?

“The point is, once we finish these, we can make you something, if you’d like,” Shiki said.

Satsuki blinked, then held up her hands. “The two of you don’t have to—”

“No, we want to!” Shiki insisted.

“Hey, come on, haven’t you noticed us making stuff for everyone else?” Eri asked.

“Hmmm, we gave a lot of them their clothes before we met her,” Shiki said. “But, hey, look, Eri designed the scarf Neku’s wearing, and I knitted it.”

Neku looked up from his sketchpad and gave her a thumbs-up. It was one of those days when he wasn’t really talking. At first, he’d avoided the rest of them when this happened. Satsuki felt privileged to see him relaxed and calm, occasionally texting one of the others when he had something to say.

“They gave me the best hoodie I have ever owned,” Beat said, with terrifying sincerity. “It’s soft and it looks cool. I don’t wanna wear it out, or I’d be wearin’ it literally every day.”

“Mmm, I reinforced the seams, so it should stand up to at least some wear,” Shiki said. “Is it already getting ragged?”

“No, but I want it to last forever,” Beat insisted.

“Beat, we can make you another one,” Shiki giggled.

Beat gaped at her.

“They’ve made me a few outfits,” Rhyme said. “They’re some of my favorites.”

“So, what you kids are saying is that I should be honored?” Satsuki asked.

Rhyme and Neku nodded and Beat added an emphatic “H*ll yeah!”

Curious, she gave Josh a sideways look. “Have you gotten any clothes from Shiki and Eri?”

Josh, to her surprise, looked a bit alarmed, even as Shiki and Eri’s expressions brightened.

“Oh, yeah, Eri, do you still have the sketches?” Shiki asked.

Eri rummaged through her bag, jabbing Beat in the side as she did.

“Watch your elbows!” he exclaimed.

“Watch your—you!” Eri replied.

As Beat sputtered in outrage, she pulled out a different notebook and opened it on top of the other one, then paged through until she found a spread of full-color sketches.

Satsuki squinted. “Are those Gothic Lolita dresses?”

“Huh, I guess Lapin Angelique wasn’t a thing in your Game,” Shiki said. “They sell Gothic Lolita fashion, and Neku told me that Josh really liked using them for power-ups when they were Partners.”

Josh was flushing now. “I-it was strategic.”

“So, you looking amazing in their clothing has nothing to do with it?” Eri asked.

Satsuki had a sinking feeling about this whole situation.

“Josh, I’m not going to judge you for wearing a dress,” she said carefully.

He caught her eyes, expression thunderous. “Of course you aren’t,” he said. “I’m the one who does the judging around here, remember?”

Satsuki sighed. “Why are you such a brat, kid?”

“I’ve been told I have a god complex,” he said.

“Yes, yes you do,” Satsuki said. “And it’s really annoying. It doesn’t mean I’m going to make a big deal out of you wearing clothes you like.”

Josh eyed her warily, but the set of his shoulders loosened, just a tiny bit.

Then Neku bounced an eraser off of his head.

Beat ducked below the table, Rhyme shrieked in surprise, and Shiki started giggling uncontrollably.

“If any of you spill your drink on my notebooks, I’m beating you up behind the café, I don’t care if you’re a death god!” Eri shrieked.

Satsuki scooted toward the edge of the booth, then sat back to enjoy the antics.

A/N: If you, too, would like to commission a thing, 6 slots have been formally filled, so there’s still time! The post is here.

Thanks for reading!
