I haven't mentioned it in forever, but I'm still playing Legendia and the second half of the game with the character quests is like, so much longer than the main part?? I'm enjoying but I'd like to finish it before OFF releases tomorrow and I get distracted. 😅

Also Grune is fun.
Grune from Tales of Legendia. Eating melon bread. Bread is all these people ever eat.

Tenna needs his special secret fix. His juice. To keep entertaining! And Spamton is his only supplier. His only friend. (Warning for eggs). #deltarune #spamtenna #darkhymnsfics

Anyway I had to write the pathetic TV man. 😔 Along with pathetic email guy.

Fic preview Couples Fight Sometimes, It's Fine! by Darkhymns Fandom: Deltarune (Video Game) Characters: Spamton G. Spamton/Tenna Rating: T Summary: Tenna was at his limit. He needed his pick-me-up just to get through the day. His secret to success. His chance at being BIG. After all, his business partner wouldn't leave him out to hang and dry, right?! Language: English Words: 2,343 Chapters: 1/1 Now, the thing was, his partner had been acting real goofy lately. Heck, the guy could be a real prankster! How many times had Tenna felt something skittering down his back, like tiny little spiders traveling all over his skin and pinching him with super tiny teeth? How many times had he screamed in terror, begging for relief all while his partner would clap and give a thumbs up? Frankly, too many times! And, well, the guy’s ideas haven't been working too well lately? All this new-fangled technology and terms were flying over Tenna’s boxy head. It wasn’t his fault he was only getting reruns now! He used to broadcast the latest craze! The juiciest gossip from La La Land! But now it was all TEXTING and EMAIL. Always the damn emails. What was wrong with regular mail? There was passion in that. There were stakes in that! The hope of receiving it, and the despair of never receiving it at all. He knew that so intimately. It was pure drama! And the emails his partner would give him just didn’t make sense? It would always make his head overheat and emit droning noises that he furtively tried to ignore. But still, his partner was good for one thing.

Final fic shared for #ColloydDay2025!

❄️ The falling snow tells us, our love makes us strong ❄️(2024). A continuation of the Cruxis!Lloyd fic. Lloyd and Colette escape from Welgaia to elope! A fic/art collab with @frayed-symphony.bsky.social! #talesofsymphonia

🔗: archiveofourown.org/works/56667406
Featuring art of Lloyd Irving and Colette Brunel from Tales of Symphonia, wearing brown cloaks over their clothes. Both are standing to the side underneath a lamp post, within the background of the city of Flanoir that is draped in falling snow. The Flanoir church and the steps leading up to it are just behind them. Colette is holding Lloyd's hand to her mouth, kissing it while Lloyd looks on with a blush on his face. Fic excerpt: “Lloyd, will you marry me?” Colette’s voice was as clear as a bell within the winter air. How she held his hand was that same gentleness from before, all those nights ago. Even with his palms callused from his training, from using his swords to fight against the angels that continually chased after them, she handled it delicately within her own. He stood there, his cheeks hot, his mouth half-open. Only dimly was he aware of the townspeople that walked around them, traveling up those same stars, going into nearby shops or even to that same church. “I…” he croaked out, his voice halting. Colette was patient with his shortcomings as always. She smiled at him, even as she shivered in her cloak. “I know it’s sudden,” she said to him. “And I know we haven’t even known each other for that long… But I’ve never been happier than I am with you. I feel…more alive than I ever have before.”

Fifth fic shared for #ColloydDay2025!

👼 Being an angel is pretty inconvenient, huh? 👼 (2023). A seven-chapter fic about Lloyd's wings becoming permanent and its difficulties. The art is a beautiful commission by @artpharos.bsky.social‬! #talesofsymphonia

🔗: archiveofourown.org/works/477543...
Featuring art of Lloyd Irving and Colette Brunel from Tales of Symphonia. Lloyd has white feathered wings and he is embracing Colette closely as they both kiss, their eyes closed. Both are flying in the air as feathers drift around them. Art by Artpharos. Fic excerpt: He moved closer, his forehead pressed against hers as they both floated lazily through the sky. “Yeah. What is it?” “Can you kiss me back?” Was it as far back as Flanoir, as far back as on his balcony before she would leave for her journey, when he first wanted to kiss her? He had loved her then, longer than he could put a single memory to it. So many times, so many moments, but it had been up to Colette to guide him. The wanting flooded through him. He could hardly even speak anymore. Still, when Lloyd pressed his lips to hers, tasting that familiar sweetness from before, hearing the soft sounds Colette made against him, he finally felt he did something right for once in so long. Flying had never before felt so wonderful.

Fourth fic shared for #ColloydDay2025!

🌩️ Risking the Storm 🌩️ (2022). A Cruxis!Lloyd AU where Lloyd was raised in Welgaia. Yggdrasill gives him an order to capture the escaped Chosen. Another art/fic collab with @frayed-symphony.bsky.social! #talesofsymphonia

🔗: archiveofourown.org/works/39613884
Featuring art of Lloyd Irving and Colette Brunel from Tales of Symphonia. Lloyd is wearing clothes similar to Kratos Aurion, dyed a deep red. Transparent blue wings extend from his back as he looks up at Colette in surprise, who is close to him. She has transparent pink wings, and parts of her clothes are ripped. Her right sleeve is torn, revealing bluish scales. She looks down at Lloyd with worry. Both are flying above the city of Welgaia. Art by Frayed-Symphony. Fic excerpt: Oh no don’t crash into her don’t crash don’t be stupid. Lloyd did all he could to not embarrass himself, wings held out to slow his flight. He was moving towards her at a lower angle, raising his head, facing her. Lloyd stopped, just inches away from her face. The girl held up her hands and gasped. “W-Who are you?” she whispered, her wings framing her, pinned to the night sky backdrop. Lloyd could see her long scratches on her right cheek, made by a weapon, though the blood had dried. An Exsphere was clasped to her collar by gold bands – different from his – shaped as a diamond instead of a sphere. It gleamed as red as the blood on her cheek. He could see her hair, ruffled by the travel of her flight. Her eyes were so blue. He…somehow didn’t expect it. She’s… The girl swallowed. Her wings flapped slightly, moving her backwards in the air, though not by much. “Are… you one of those angels?” She flicked a glance to his own wings, their azure light falling against her dress. It took Lloyd another moment. She was noting the difference in him. His wings weren’t made of feathers like most who lived in Welgaia, just pure mana – like his father’s, like Yggdrasill’s. And like hers. Lloyd must have moved closer without meaning to, (her eyes were just so blue) because suddenly Colette held out something before her, clutched in both of her hands.

Third fic shared for #ColloydDay2025!

🧜‍♀️ How I Became the Sea 🧜‍♀️ (2021). A mythology-inspired AU fic of Colette as a selkie and Lloyd as the fisherman who finds her in the sea. An art/fic collab with @frayed-symphony.bsky.social ! #talesofsymphonia

🔗: archiveofourown.org/works/31923289
Featuring art of Lloyd Irving and Colette Brunel from Tales of Symphonia. Lloyd is sitting in a wooden boat on the ocean, holding a fishing net. Colette is in the water with a mermaid tail. Excerpt: He kept searching through the tight corners of his little boat, but couldn’t find the fishing line anywhere! “I thought I…put it here…” Another search, but he only came upon the same boots, the same pack full of bait. “Where is it…?” Ugh, did I really leave it at home? A soft voice floated to him, so light that a strong gust of wind could have blown it away. “Is it this?” He turned. A hand was outstretched, holding the plastic cord gently in its palm, the line wrapped around it as clear as silk. “Oh, thank you! I was looking for that.” He took the fishing line gratefully. Then stopped. Then thought a moment. He was out in the middle of the ocean. So, another hand… was kind of weird, wasn’t it? When he moved to look over the side, he didn’t do it quickly or with loud movements. A hand carefully placed itself over the rim, fingers pressed against the damp wood, the thin lines of a fishing net he had also brought along with him, ready to be cast out into the water. Sunlight fell over waves, so bright that it blinded him. Salt on his tongue, eyes still peering through the light, he found her there–and felt familiarity. It’s said that beauty cannot be trusted when it’s from the sea. A wondrous pattern can lure any curious sailor to fall overboard, or a song so piercing the heart can smash a ship to pieces against rocks hidden beneath. But the girl that peeked her face from the waves only blinked, her golden hair unfurling all around her, like the serrated drapes of a strange curtain. Lloyd leaned forward, just a bit, as his tiny rowboat wobbled, the splashing water taking over sound. He saw the shape of a fish tail far beneath her in the swirling dark, saw the trails of scales that dotted her shoulders, and the curved fins that poked out from the sides of her head.
