Final Fantasy XV+1
We've been hiding, we've been seeking (now we're found)
by MYuzuki
"We're going to need an actual plausible explanation for why I have the power of the Lucii," Nyx remarks over breakfast, as he valiantly tries to ignoring the hangover headache that's drumming at the back of his skull. "A reason besides time travel, I mean."
Final Fantasy XV+1
The harder the battle, the harder I'll fight (I've come too far to quit)
by MYuzuki
Nyx spends a week trying to pick up the pieces in the wake of Titus Drautos's arrest, and despite the nightmares that still plague him and the low-level hum of mystical power that he doesn't know what to do with he thinks he's doing a good job, all things considered. Then Glauca breaks out of prison.

If there's a shadow hanging over our fate (we won't forget that deep inside we're the same)
by MYuzuki
"The King wishes to speak to you," Cor says, and Nyx tries not to flinch.
Final Fantasy XV+1
Heavy on our shoulders is the weight of the world (but it makes us stronger, though the pain it burns)
by MYuzuki
Three days after Lunafreya's rescue, they have an emergency council session about the renewed violence of the war between Lucis and Niflheim.
Final Fantasy XV+1
It's darker before the dawn (but you don't need to do this alone)
by MYuzuki
The arrest of Titus Drautos for treason is not something that Nyx had thought he'd live to see.
Final Fantasy XV+1
I've seen kingdoms fall (I've seen it all)
by MYuzuki
"I want the truth about how you knew Titus Drautos was a traitor," Cor says.Nyx gives a sharp bark of laughter, the sound rough and jagged. "You wouldn't believe me even if I told you," he says, and isn't sure whether it's exhaustion or hysteria making his voice shake.
Final Fantasy XV+1
I can feel it in my bones (hear it rumble like a drum)
by MYuzuki
Cor isn't accustomed to members of the Kingsglaive showing up at his office door unprompted.
Final Fantasy XV+1
Got to keep it locked tight (If I'm gonna survive)
by MYuzuki
This time, when Nyx wakes up he's rather befuddled to find himself in a hospital bed.

Done it all before (still looking for freedom)
by MYuzuki
Cor finds Nyx in the Kingsglaive barracks.
Final Fantasy XV+1
Broken promises, burning flames
by MYuzuki
Cor understands now, the sharp edge of Nyx Ulric's smile.
Final Fantasy XV+1
There's a spark in your center (that's piercing me in)
by MYuzuki
"Why were you at the barracks?" Cor asks Nyx, and arches an eyebrow at the vaguely rueful expression he gets in response.
Final Fantasy XV+1
The tables turn (now it's time to survive)
by MYuzuki
Dragging Luche's surly traitorous ass all the way back to Insomnia is not fun in the slightest.
Final Fantasy XV+1
Standing in the smoke, fading into ruin (nowhere left to go, hanging on a feeling)
by MYuzuki
Nyx's feet carry him through the streets of Insomnia even as his mind buzzes with unanswerable questions and fragments of a timeline that will never come to pass.
Final Fantasy XV+1
we are the broken ones (who chose to spark a flame)
by MYuzuki
Nyx basks in the pale light of dawn, exhausted and aching but content enough in his victory even as his body dissolves into ash before his very eyes. Because even if it cost him his life, he still won against Glauca, still bought time for Libertus to get Lunafreya to safety. Still did his best to fight for the future he wants, a future where peace is the natural state of the world rather than war, a future where the people of Galahd are proud and strong again, rather than tattered and weary refugees.He did his best, and the cost of that is his life. And that’s alright. It’s a price he’s more than willing to pay. Except then, after his heart finally slows to a stop and he slips into darkness…he wakes up.He wakes up, and it’s two days before Crowe is sent on a mission that will end in her death and Nyx knows. Knows that he can change it, can change everything, and realizes that as impossible as it seems he has no choice but to try.
Final Fantasy XV+1
I hear the sound (echoes beneath)
by MYuzuki
As luck would have it, Noctis finds Nyx before Nyx can find Ardyn.

veil torn (now I'm seeing your lies)
by MYuzuki
Somehow, Nyx manages to not stab Titus Drautos in the face the second he sees him.
Final Fantasy XV+1
Alone in the dark (just my thoughts in a room)
by MYuzuki
After his conversation with Cor, Nyx goes home and gets thoroughly, unashamedly shit-faced drunk.
Final Fantasy XV+1
when everything’s lost (they pick up their hearts and avenge defeat)
by MYuzuki
The bitch of it is, Nyx realizes later as he struggles to explain to Crowe why she absolutely cannot accept a classified mission from their commanding officer without really explaining why she can’t do it, is that he can’t risk telling anyone the truth. Not yet, at least. And if he’s being realistic, probably never.
