#I'll post to AO3 and reblog this with the link tomorrow
Text
I may have missed Gwynedd's nameday but I didn't forget about Llewellyn! To celebrate, I am posting Chapter 0 of a fic I'm working on. Sort of a 'what are some of the other characters doing while WoL is busy WoL-ing' with some OC x Canon because I can't help myself.
Join me as I dump further emotional turmoil on some teens and 20-somethings who are already going to be traumatized by the narrative.
***
Chapter 0: Meet the Grufuds
(Takes place post-Heavensward)
The streets of Limsa Lominsa were buzzing with activity, from the stalls of Hawkers Alley down to the docks themselves. At present, Alphinaud was doing his best to keep up with the towering Warrior of Light, Gwynned Grufud, as they sought to fill a list of requests given to them by Tataru. It was mostly things that they would have had a hard time finding in Revenant’s Toll. Additionally, their main reason for venturing to the capital of Vylbrand was the fact that there was an important shipment to pick up from the shipyard. A crate of rare tomes sent from Sharlayan, at Scions’ request, that required an escort back to the Rising Stones. Tataru had informed them that they were scheduled to meet with the captain of this particular vessel at a certain time, but Gwynedd was adamant that they could be there as early as they wanted and would not elaborate as to why she was so certain.
The ship itself was easy to find. It was much larger than the other mercantile vessels and sported a long, pointed prow covered in plates of what was likely pillaged Garlean steel. On the steel was engraved The Hullripper, completing the image of this imposing ship. As Alphinaud expected, the gangplank had not been lowered.
“I believe we are still a bit early.” He wanted to give Gwynedd the benefit of the doubt as she was friendly with many of the crews that frequented the Lominsan docks.
“Give me a mo’.” Gwynedd smiled and put two fingers to her lips. She blew two short whistles, then waited. From the deck of the ship came a chorus of three shrill whistles, a perfect call and response. A few moments later, the gangplank was lowered and Alphinaud could hear faint giggles coming from on deck. Gwynedd waved him along as she quickly jogged up the gangplank. Alphinaud followed behind, unprepared for what was waiting for them.
“Gwyn’s back, Gwyn’s back!” Five children, the youngest at about six and the oldest looking to be around eleven or twelve, swarmed the woman.
“Where have you been? Did you really fight a dragon like you said in your letters?” A little miqo’te girl asked as she climbed up Gwynedd’s clothes to reach her shoulder.
“How did you kill Titan? And Leviathan? Tell me!!!” A slightly older hyur boy bounced excitedly as he shouted his questions, clinging to the leg of Gwynedd’s trousers.
“Who did you bring with you? Hi!” A floppy-eared viera girl leaned around Gwynedd to wave at Alphinaud.
“Yes, I did fight a dragon, Nari. I’ll tell ye the stories later, Screech, but I’m here on business.” She pulled the hyuran boy off of her leg and turned to Alphinaud. “Meet my little siblings. Siblings, meet my friend Alphinaud.” Gwynedd proceeded to introduce the children from oldest to youngest; Matia (viera girl, 11), Cavato (lalafell boy, 10), Syrus a.k.a. Screech (hyur boy, 8), Fiona (elezen girl, 8), and L’nari (miqo’te girl, 6). “Now then, where’s the captain?” Gwynedd asked, looking around the deck.
“Muu-uumm! Daa-aaadd!! Gwynedd’s home!!!” L’nari shouted, making Gwynedd wince. The doors leading below deck swung open and out stepped two older roegadyn.
“Gwyn! Gods, lass, how long’s it been since ye left us?” The woman clad in a dark green jacket and tricorn hat hurried over and pulled Gwynedd into a tight hug.
“Too long, Mum, too long.” She replied, smiling at the pair. The man, Gwynedd’s father, took his turn embracing his eldest daughter and then plucked the little miqo’te from her shoulder.
“L’nari, wha’ ‘ave I said about climbin’ folks?” He asked the girl as she wriggled her way around to hang onto his back instead. Gwynedd chuckled heartily and put a hand on Alphinaud’s shoulder.
“Mum, Dad, I’d like you to meet Alphinaud Leveilleur, pretty certain I’ve mentioned him in my letters. Alphinaud, allow me to introduce Captain Angharad Grufud and her first mate Rhodri Grufud, my parents.” She beamed with pride.
“A pleasure to meet you. Gwynedd has told me much about you.” Alphinaud felt extremely small next to the three towering, muscular roegadyn. Of the two, Gwynedd definitely looked more like her father in both face and stature, being solidly built and sharp-jawed.
“Aye, and am I to understand that you two are also here for that crate of Sharlayan books? Your brother’s been itching to get at them, Gwyn, should nobody show up to collect.” Angharad smiled.
“Don’t worry, Alphie, I’ve only got one more sibling on this ship.” Gwynedd said, sensing her companion’s confusion as to just how big this family was. “You and he are about the same age, if memory serves. Come on, I’ll take you to say hello.” She led Alphinaud towards the captain’s quarters at the back of the ship. With no warning, she kicked the doors open and charged inside. “Welly, I’m ba-ack!”
“Wha- hey, Gwyn- ahk! Put me down!” The occupant of the room protested. Alphinaud carefully stopped the swinging doors and entered. Inside, Gwynedd had a younger roegadyn man in a bear hug, fully lifting him off of the ground. Laughing heartily, Gwynedd put her brother down.
“This is my baby brother, Welly!” She slapped her brother’s back firmly.
“Llewellyn Grufud, pleasure to meet you.” He offered a handshake and a smile to Alphinaud, who returned the gestures in kind.
“Alphinaud Leveilleur, and the pleasure is mine.” Alphinaud could definitely see that Llewellyn and Gwynedd were related, but Llewellyn lacked his sister’s roughened edges. He was also much shorter, and built from lean muscle rather than being broad and chiseled from stone like most roegadyn. He had a gentle face, piercing sea-green eyes, an adorably lopsided smile, soft-looking lips… Alphinaud could feel the tips of his ears turning red. Twelve preserve, had he been staring? He pulled his hand back and cleared his throat.
“Ah, right, you must be here for the books! One moment, please. I’ll go grab them from the hold.” Llewellyn moved towards the door but Gwynedd’s hand on his shoulder stopped him.
“I’ll get it, I know what I’m looking for. Why don’t you show Alphinaud all your fancy navigation stuff.” She waved at the map laid out on the center table and the instruments sitting on it, then made a quick exit.
~~~
Llewellyn internally cursed his sister for leaving him awkwardly alone with, and for embarrassing him in front of, someone new (and cute). At least she had suggested discussing something Llewellyn was competent in. He explained the finer points of his modifications of the standard route from Limsa to Kugane, all while Alphinaud listened with rapt attention. His attentive, deep blue eyes followed along as Llewellyn traced the line of the route, the sunlight coming in from the window sparkling through the elezen’s platinum-white hair. Alphinaud asked him a question and Llewellyn was grateful for the distraction. Suddenly, the doors creaked open again.
“Hope you two didn’t get into any trouble while I was gone.” Gwynedd grinned, the large crate of books tucked under her arm.
“No, no, Llewellyn was just showing me how he charted the ship’s next course. It was fascinating.” He glanced back at the other teen, a light pink dusting his cheeks. “Perhaps, if you ever find yourself near Mor Dhona, you could come to the Rising Stones and I’ll show you some of the books on astral triangulation we have there.” Alphinaud suggested. “Only if you’re interested, of course.”
“Sure!” Llewellyn reigned in his enthusiasm. “I-I’d like that.”
“I look forward to it. Until then.” Alphinaud smiled warmly and went back out onto the deck. Gwynedd gave her brother a thumbs-up and followed her companion out, closing the doors behind her. Llewellyn wanted to scream, both at the elated feeling in his chest and at his insufferable sister’s behavior.
~~~
As he unpacked the Sharlayan books, organizing them based on which of his fellow Scions had requested which book, Alphinaud’s mind began to wander. He had never realized just how much family the Warrior of Light had; she had never even mentioned being raised on a ship. It shouldn’t have surprised him as much as it did, as Gwynedd had been protective and nurturing towards him since their first meeting. She likely saw similarities between himself and her brother, Llewellyn.
Alphinaud recalled his recent introduction to Llewellyn Grufud. The rough, warm skin of hand, his genuine smile and brilliant teal eyes, and on top of that he was very tall. Llewellyn even seemed interested in some of the same things he was and he hoped that they would have the chance to talk again. The sudden, giddy flutter in his chest made Alphinaud pause. He did want to see Llewellyn again, to get to know him better, but was there something else beneath the simple desire for friendship? It wasn’t as if Alphinaud lacked friends, it was just that the Scions were all much older than him and his schoolmates back in Sharlayan were often… behind him in terms of academics and maturity.
He recalled the times at the Studium where male classmates would mistake him for his sister, the confusion undercut with excitement when they flirted with him. That excitement was something he would always quickly squash down. Not that he thought there was anything wrong with the idea of two men being romantically involved, but he had his family’s reputation and future to think about, something his father had so often impressed the importance of upon him. Sharlayan was not terribly accepting of deviance from the prescribed norms, either. Alphinaud put the book in his hand down with a sigh.
Even if he was going to allow himself to consider the idea of dating another boy, he was assuming a lot in terms of what Llewellyn was interested in. It was better to hope for a comfortable friendship, like the one Alphinaud had fostered with Arenvald back when the Scions were still at the Waking Sands. He felt a little bit better as he formulated this course of action, firmly ignoring any emotions that would change his course.

Steve was in his apartment in Brooklyn. It was his birthday, and despite the years that had passed since he was thawed out, he still felt a little out of place.
The day started like any other. However, as the day progressed, he noticed that everyone seemed to be busy. Natasha was on a mission, Tony was busy in his lab, Thor was in Asgard, Clint was at his farm, and Banner was at a conference or something; he hadn't understood him, and even Sam wasn't available either.
Returning to his apartment, Steve felt a little melancholy. He looked at himself in the mirror and realized that he still felt lonely at the moment.
He decided to go for a walk through the streets of the city, deep in thought. As he strolled through the places he once knew and still existed and the pleasant moments he had spent there.
He passed by a small pastry shop, so he decided to go in and buy a slice of cake. He was amazed at the immense variety that now existed; in his day, they were very "basic" flavors.
Steve went back to his apartment and lit a small candle on the slice of cake. He sat alone at the table, watching the flickering flame. As he blew out the candle, he made a small wish silently.
At that moment, his phone rang, but he decided to ignore it. It was time to enjoy his cake; maybe tomorrow would be a new day, and maybe the others wouldn't be so busy anymore.
“He's not answering," Natasha said for the fifth time.
“Rumlow, you should go get him," Tony suggested.
“I'm not going; I told them it was a bad idea to throw him a surprise party; no one bothered to be with him to keep an eye on him," Brock complained.
“You and Rollins could have been..."
“We had to train the new guys, who, by the way, are useless."
“Stop fighting; I'll go," Clint offered, heading for the exit.

Hey, Seblainers! Hellooooo, everyone else!
Just a quick note to let you know why your Seblainintine's Extended Weekend 2024 contributions are being reblogged a bit later than usual and why none of my own work has been posted yet.
Sadly, my Boyfriend’s Mum has passed away very suddenly from septic shock after being admitted to Hospital on Tuesday for a very routine check-up, so as you can imagine, I'm devastated, still in shock and will be spending much of my time for the next wee while comforting him and his family and helping out with their arrangements in any way that I can.
To this end, I'm extending the time for submissions. Therefore, everything posted will be reblogged right up until Friday 1st March. Please bear with me at this difficult time. I'll post the link to the AO3 Seblainintine's 2024 Collection at some point tomorrow.
Thank you to everyone who's taking part. I'm so looking forward to reading all of the new and updated fics and looking at all of the artwork, etc. dedicated to our beautiful boys, just as soon as my life gets a bit less hectic and a lot less sad.
Love you all.
Ail 💜

I HAVE NEWS!!
Hi, dearies! How are you? How the creating's going? I just wanted to check in with you because of 2 things.
First, like I said, I have news. Since it's less than a month for TBB Appreciation Week (WHAT?! Where the time went?!), and that's the longest time that AO3 maintains the drafts stored, I opened the collection on Ao3 for those overachievers, who have finished their fics/arts and want to save the drafts with the collection info already in it. You can do that now.
Of course, don't post yet! It's just to save drafts with all the metadata and links necessary. (This is for the overachievers and/or obsessive people like me. If you think this is crazy, just ignore it!)
Here's the link:
And the second thing is to remind you that tomorrow we have another SNEAK PEEK SATURDAY!! If you want to share a snippet of what you've done so far, you can do it any time during the day. Tag this blog or use the tag #tbbaw sneak peek saturday, and I'll reblog you.
I hope you have a wonderful day/afternoon/night!
#the collection is open!#tbbaw2023#event info#the bad batch appreciation week 2023#the bad batch#tbb#tbb appreciation week 2023

Hiii! Just a wee update.
I'm back... kind of. It's going to be a slow process to see how I feel.
I'll be unpausing my queue tomorrow and will add posts as I see them. I was already doing this before, the difference is that I will also be including fic recs I read instead of reblogging them as they are posted (I've been having a hard time reading fics, but I'm doing my best to read at least my mutuals' fics I want to support them and I feel bad for not reading their fics, so pls be patient. It might take me three months to finish an 8-chapter fic, but I'll get there eventually T_T).
And speaking of which: I will not be posting any more of my fics in their entirety on Tumblr for my own mental sake (at least for a while). Instead I'll be sharing the link to AO3 with a brief summary/preview. I will still do prompts tho (whenever I open up prompt requests). I will also be adding links to my previous fics to the queue.
Lastly, mental health cw:
I changed my Tumblr theme and blog title to reflect what I'm feeling right now. It's dark because I'm still not okay, but I'm working on it. Also I won't promise that I won't make any more venting posts. I will keep tagging them with Mental Health cw and tw, both before the spoiler and in the tags.

Roommates to lovers my beloved!! How about willex & “no, you can stay. i don’t mind.”
yess such a beloved trope!! ty so much for the prompt, anon! i got a little carried away and decided to just post this on ao3 instead of on tumblr only. here's a snippet and i'll link it in the reblogs, hope you like it!
a study in sunset
By the time Alex makes his way to the kitchen, Willie has already taken over the entire dining table.
To be fair to them, it’s three in the morning, so he’s not being rude by taking up all of the space. Besides, while it’s not unusual for Willie to be up at all hours, Alex tends to have a pretty steady sleep schedule in place. Willie didn’t think he’d be up tonight.
“Art project,” Willie says, answering Alex’s unanswered question and gesturing at the piles of paper and supplies spread around him. “I changed my mind about what I wanted to do last week, procrastinated, and am now trying not to scream in agony with each passing minute, cause the deadline is tomorrow morning.”
Alex winces in sympathy. He slides into a seat next to Willie. His hair flops down onto his forehead. Willie has to resist the urge to card his fingers through it and push it back.
As Willie’s roommate, Alex has seen Willie in plenty of deadline-induced frenzies. There was the time with the pottery glaze that ran out, the confetti paper mache that covered their kitchen counters for weeks, the traces of paint and marker Willie seems to leave behind everywhere no matter how often he washes his hands. They apologise for it frequently, but Alex never seems to mind.
Then again, Alex is a drummer. He’s not exactly the world’s quietest roommate. They’re a pretty good match, actually.

About Me
Hi there! I'm Ella, and I'm into a lot of different fandoms and ships and stuff like that. Here, I mostly ramble about Harry Potter, and Marvel. And that is what you'll find here.
Marvel Stuff
So this blog right here, I won't actually post Marvel stuff but if you check out peterpcrkcrs (my Marvel sideblog), you'll find lots of Marvel content there (mostly Tom Holland's Spiderman, Peter x MJH, Iron Man, Irondad & Spiderson, and Avengers related things)
I love Dramione like there's no tomorrow, so among Harry Potter and other related stuff, you'll find a LOT of them here. Mostly fan art and fics I love or want to read, but if you love Dramione, come say hi.
If you'd like to see my works, you can find them at the link to my Ao3 down below or you can find the links here organized by in-progress and completed.
I mostly reblog fan art and just other HP stuff. Sometimes, though very rarely, I ramble about things.
I am an author of fanfiction, and currently writing for Dramione but will eventually be writing some FB and MCU stuff. I do edits sometimes and post them here.
Note: If you'd like to translate my work into another language, I think that's awesome and that would make me super happy, but please do ask first. C: There's currently a Russian translation of When the Day Loved the Night in progress, so I'll have a link to that on the original work on AO3
my stuff
I'm an author, so I'll be posting links here to my fics which can be found here on Ao3. I will always tag my fics with 'ella writes stuff'
I sometimes write meta or just thoughts about the fandom stuff I'm into, stuff characters do etc. I'll tag that with 'my ramblings' and 'ella says stuff'
I also do very simple art bc I don't actually know how to draw but I like it...so you'll see some of that.
My edits I tag with 'ella makes stuff'
That's about it. Come say hi if you like, I'm into a lot more fandoms than the ones I've just listed, so if you're curious, ask. ^^
#ella says stuff#my ramblings#this is me#fantastic beasts#newt scamander#eddie redmayne#dramione#draco malfoy#hermione granger#les mis#les miserables#peter parker#tom holland#zendaya#spiderman mcu#marvel#mcu

a shadow resides by night | 3.4k
The Jedi stand on the edge of the crowds, watching. They’re dressed in their best but their best is plain and they stand out in their simplicity, especially compared to their hosts. Dooku does find it a bit too opulent. A bit wasteful, ironic when about half the speeches at dinner had been about the need to control budgetary spending. But Naboo was extremely wealthy, known for its art, architecture, and fashion, and never missed a chance to show off. Everyone knew once they were chosen to host this year’s summit that they wouldn’t hold back. But Dooku cannot outwardly admit that he finds it a little excessive because that would mean admitting his apprentice is right. Impossible.
Dooku and his moody teenage apprentice attend a diplomatic function on Naboo and cross paths with a figure who will one day shape both their fates. Qui-Gon hates parties. Palpatine hates Qui-Gon.
[ link to ao3 ]
Second to last post of whumptober! So late in the day lol whoops, I had an errand to run and then things were busy at work.
If you have been following along my drafting adventure, this is not the fic I did age math for. The ages are...approximations. I did my best. (I didn't I just went with the vibe. XD ) Also I STRETCHED the prompts for this one haha just go with it.
As always kudos/comments/reblogs/frogs appreciated and I'll see you tomorrow for the last fic of the month before I return to hibernation <3 Night!

Tomorrow is the first #FinishedItFriday of the Finish What You Started 2023 event! Here's a quick guide to making a promo post if you haven't made one before.
Start with your most basic of basic info: Fandom, characters, ship (or gen), and rating.
Then, move into specifics. This includes content tags like genderbend, gore, nsfw, blood, animal death, etc. Ideally, these are at the top of the post and in the tags, for easy filtering and screenreaders. Don't just put them in the tags, as those won't travel with your post.
Include one or two key points that make your piece unique. Tropes, setting, whatever hooks a reader! Here it can even be the whole summary, as there are no character limits to worry about.
For fic, adding a screenshot of the AO3 metatext/info box is great for including more nuanced information (don't forget to add alt text!). I've also seen people set up their promo posts in the format of the AO3 metatext box, with each category as its own line.
And finally the hashtag #IFinishedWhatIStarted2023 so I can find and boost your work! You can also include the general event hashtag (#FinishWhatYouStarted2023) if you want.
What fandom tags you use are up to you, and where you want your work to show up. General practice is fandom, a separate tag for each character, and the ship name or character/character. If it's a special AU, make a tag for it! Your future self may thank you.
Here's a template example for fic:
Cw tag1 tag2 //
I finished my Ship (or # ship) fic! Brief summary or title, personalize. Include the fandom name in the body somewhere.
*rating
*setting
*trope
*trope
*shocking event from fic
Link to fic
# fandom #character # character # ship # IFinishedWhatIStarted2023 # tag1 # tag2 # unique AU tag
For art:
CW tag1 tag2 //
I'm done with this (#)Ship/Character piece! Title or brief explanation of the piece, setting, or any special focus you want to direct. Include the fandom name somewhere in the text.
# fandom # character # character # ship # IFinishedWhatIStarted # tag1 # tag2 # unique AU tag
(don't forget alt text on your art! It can be basic if you want, like "character in place", as long as it's something)
I can add some of that information when I reblog it, but it's good to have in the base post as your promo may reach circles it does not usually. Make sure one or both of the event tags is on the post so I can find and include it! I'll check both every Friday.
"My work isn't good enough for a promo header-" Yes it is. You did it, you finished it. Be proud of that, if nothing else.

hi, i'm interrupting your path to the fic because i wanted to say thank you for 50 followers (ik its not a lot but humour me) i made this blog like 3 weeks ago on a whim and i didn't expect people to like my stuff this much. so thank you again for all your support, and i hope you enjoy, and i don't know what to do to celebrate my silly little milestone but I'll probably just double-post tonight or tomorrow.
