Ao3 Fanfics

With the encouragement of a few friends, I have decided to start posting here on Tumblr my Ao3 Horizon fandom stories that I write. I'm fairly new to these parts, so please let me know if you see any way I can improve how I put these up. I also would love to hear from you guys so feel free to send me any Asks or messages!

My Works

Stories in Progress:

Road to Mainspring - Aloy/Erend In the weeks after the Battle of the Alight, Aloy is recruited to escort Dervahl to Mainspring with Erend Vanguardsman - a journey neither of them expected to go the way it did. Set after Zero Dawn, before Forbidden West. Rating: Mature/Explicit (for eventual smut)

Blood and Sandstone - Aloy AU re: Carja Red Raids An alternate narrative following the 'what if' of Aloy being kidnapped during the Red Raids for the Sun Ring instead of living her life peacefully in the Embrace, and what her life might've been like during that time. Features: Ersa, Erend (eventual Ereloy), Rost, Helis, Avad, Jiran and so many others... Rating: Mature/Explicit (for dark themes, violence, eventual smut)

Echoes of Enduring Hearts - Aloy/Avad Aloy and Avad navigate a complicated relationship before and after the events of Horizon: Forbidden West. Rating: Teen and Up (for now, who knows, will update if it changes)

Completed Stories and One-Shots:

A Breath of Fresh Air - Aloy/Kotallo (maybe completed, tbd) Set just before heading to the mission to the GEMINI cauldron. Kotallo notices Aloy getting antsy being cooped up in the base as they wait for Beta to prepare herself for the merge and finish the 'rig', so he invites her for an outdoor excursion. Rating: Teen and Up

Embers of the Past - Aloy/Erend Prompt for two minutes Oseramtober 2023 - "Ember" Aloy takes a friend's advice for some downtime and ends up coming face to face with a messy part of her and Erend's past. Will they be able to finally move past it or will it burn everything they'd built to embers and ash? Rating: Teen and Up

“you did good”

#horizon forbidden west #hfw #erend #aloy #look they did erend dirty #he deserved better #i know it isn't aloy's job to manage his emotional state or whatev #but she always totally ignored him when he called himself dumb or useless #one line of something like #'you're here helping - you're not useless'#outside of the one mission we get with him #would have gone a long way i think #for me as the viewer at least if not for him #his world was totally upended in hzd #i'm sure he's still mourning ersa #and yet he was still competent enough to lead the vanguard #(pretty sure avad could have found someone else if he really sucked)#i know i know aloy had character growth #and we got that conversation at the end with the drinks #that was great #still #formal petition for better erend content #(also obligatory 'let us move the camera in settlements damn it')#oops wrote a book in the tags #hfw photomode #hfw hidden ember

Aloy meeting Erend right after she lost Rost and Erend meeting Aloy when Ersa died makes me soooooooooo . Their experience of shared greif, and being each other's found family to help each other through their greif, is so important to me.

#i post a lot about quirky white boys with sideburns huh #hfw spoilers for these coming tags >#also if i can be /neg for a sec this is why I think it would've made way more sense for Erend to have died in hfw than Varl #for Erend to die protecting Aloy like he couldn't do for Ersa. that would've been a good end to his arc imo.#like if you HAVE to kill one of Aloy's found family brothers Erend makes more sense to me #horizon zero dawn #horizon forbidden west #hzd #hfw #🪼#this is why i prefer platonic Ereloy also #but no hate to those that like them romantically i think they both deserve to be adored so why not have them both do it to each other

Some Horizon character orientation headcanons:

Aloy - straight but curious

Zo - straight

Varl - straight but comfy enough for fmm threesomes, if Zo ever asked

Kotallo - straight

Erend - mad there isn't a "I'm only interested in Aloy" option

Beta - aro ace

Alva - straight but the idea of Flirting with a Man makes her want to die apparently she canonically has a gf but to me she has big clueless straight energy

Nil - bi

Avad - straight

Ersa - heterosexual, biromantic

Teb - ace & panromantic

Petra - gay

Talanah - bi

Sylens - gay but annoyed by such trifling things as sexual urges

Nakoa - unsure and dealing with too much trauma to explore that any deeper right now

Janeva - uninterested in answering this question and if you ask again will have you on latrine duty but has been spotted in the company of a certain Nora stitcher on more than one occasion

I desperately want a horizon spin off game where you play as Ersa during the revolution with Avad and extend etc. I need more Ersa content since that comic.

also what's up with this weird ~maybe when all of this is over~ potential hint of romance they keep pushing between avad & aloy sksggdjddkdk

#don't get me wrong avad is very sweet & i adore him. but it's still extremely weird to me how quickly he seemed to have moved on from ersa #also i'm sorry but if aloy is gonna end up with a man at any point then i'm team varl. all the way baby ✊️#horizon series #horizon forbidden west #hfw tag #🎮 tag #send tweet

captured in battle by enemy soldiers in foreign lands

thrown into a gigantic human sacrifice pit, killed machines and warriors, but survived

eventually became the right hand of the king and greatly respected by the people of their adopted country

have reputations as both diplomats/peace markers as well as skilled warriors

aloy is told much about them at the start of each game

and yet they drop dead within ten minutes of meeting her

knew avad. (in different ways)

au where neither fashav or ersa died and they just had a whole buddy cop action movie together offscreen instead

#i just noticed this last night #hfw fashav #hzd ersa

Hi! Just went through your Horizon tag and I'm curious if I may ask, what are your thoughts on HFW?

In a personal sense, my thoughts are mostly that it walked into my nice empty sandbox and purposefully put a foot in my sandcastle.

In a storytelling sense, I liked a lot of the ideas it came out with and spent a lot of it shouting at the screen about how it could have executed them better, but if you want to know an elaborate critique I'd prefer to expound on it in private messages rather than hang my ass out for all of Tumblr to see.

#hzd #hfw #it stomped right on my avad/ersa ship for absolutely no reason but petty malice #and I have about 80000 gripes about how it could have handled its plot points better #but it wasn't as bad as it could have been i guess.#at least they didn't give aloy a love interest

what would aloy and beta's fursonas be

#genuine question #they'd be foxes or wolves i think #erend is a bear. for obvious reasons #varl vala and sona give me feline vibes #avad is very much a lion or tiger type. same with jiran and kadaman #ersa is a black bear to match her brother #nil is a cheetah. or Jaguar #talanah is a hawk obviously #im missing some characters but ill come back to this #hfw #horizon forbidden west #horizon zero dawn #hzd
