Summary
There are thorns, gentle catches of nails and sharp teeth, to keep them both feeling real.
Bruised lips and blackberry blood, fruit over-ripe and glossy.
Sheets of silver hair secluding them together in their secret room behind the waterfall.
Two veiled faces; two bodies tangling together in white sheets like a shared burial shroud.
Together in life or death or the in-between.
The seasons change, and the intensity of physical desire ebbs and flows, as these things do.
Set in the At Dawn universe. Ideally read in sequence but also works standalone.

Summary
Sephiroth does not like cold metal on bare skin.
Especially near his spine, or his wrists, or the insides of his elbows.
He does not like having his back to the door.
Cloud and Sephiroth aren’t broken, but they aren’t whole either.
Set in the At Dawn universe; can be read standalone without spoilers.

Summary
Too long, it’s taking too long, Cloud thinks, as he notices the telltale hum of Masamune being summoned.
Shit.
He braces himself for the killing blow.
It never comes.
After the final battle against Jenova goes in an unexpected direction, Cloud and Sephiroth are left to sift through the ashes. Though they'd rather go their separate ways, fate drags them back together, as it always does. What starts as a reluctant road trip becomes a whirlwind of thrilling clashes, awakening Cetra magic, and literal soul-searching as they're drawn closer and closer...by something other than Reunion.
Complete, but other works in this universe are ongoing.

Summary
At Dawn
After the final battle against Jenova goes in an unexpected direction, Cloud and Sephiroth are left to sift through the ashes. What starts as a reluctant road trip becomes a whirlwind of thrilling clashes, awakening Cetra magic, and literal soul-searching as they're drawn closer and closer...by something other than Reunion. COMPLETE
Sunrise Stories
An ongoing series of Sefikura short stories. I plan to keep experimenting with tone and genre, and will tag relatively comprehensively so you can take or leave what you like!
Some are set in the At Dawn universe, some are completely standalone, and some are a bit of both — there's more info about this in each story's summary.
Sincere apologies to e.e. cummings for some of the titles. It’s a nod to experimental writing and certain types of symbolism that I have always loved
stealing, but also a poem I have come back to over and over, and which I have, as with many things, convinced myself could be about sefikura. (A poet whose oeuvre revolves around love, death, war, eroticism, nature, and the season of rebirth...you could reach further.)- Words:
