Summary
Wei Ying blinked his eyes open, feeling disoriented. Across from him sat a younger man—mid-twenties, petite facial features, smudged black eyeliner, dark hair tied up in a messy bun. It was Mo Xuanyu.
Wei Ying knew Mo Xuanyu. He just didn’t know why.
--
Wei Ying finds himself in an unknown house that feels familiar with his disciple, Mo Xuanyu. Neither of them can remember their lives, or why they're there, and someone (or something) is watching them.
To solve the mystery of their confinement, they must remember the prophecy about their generation: "The One Who Sees will find the One Who Is. And the One Who Is will rip apart the world." Their generation faces a lot. But they're sticking together to face it.

Summary
Part of a series, but stand alone friendly (but you should just read the series).
Mafuyu and Uenoyama finally have some time off from constant touring and Mafuyu is excited to show his boyfriend a new album. But as usual, his overly critical boyfriend has to be convinced first... This does not deter Mafuyu from doing what needs to be done for a sensual, cozy, and musical night in.

Summary
Given is tasked with filming a game for YouTube in which they rank rock songs that have "Give" in their titles in honor of their band name.
Kouji has a prank up his sleeve.
Part of a series, but pretty much stand alone friendly.
*This story is honestly me revisiting music videos of yesteryear and ranting and raving as I do so. The band's opinions are their own...who am I kidding, they are mostly mine, hah!

Summary
A place for all the in between moments of Just Live Til You Die Series. Will Mostly be the POVs of characters that I have not explored in the main series <3
Not in chronological order. Would work best if one had read the series prior. Not stand alone friendly thus far. Chapter Names determine which character POV you're reading if you want to skip around.
Chapter POV Guide:
"The Patient" - Ardyn
"Lucky Time" - Iris
"Keep Talking" - Aranea
"Night of Joy" - Nyx
"After All These Years" - Noctis & PromptoSeries

Part of a series but mostly stand alone friendly if you have an aptitude for connect the dots.

Summary
Uenoyama Ritsuka is a bored office worker that doesn't know what he's doing with his life. Nothing seems to excite him anymore and his sister says that he's probably depressed. She suggests that he switch up his life a bit, and when the opportunity comes knocking he decides to take it.
This story is a sort of retelling with slightly aged up characters. No relationships to start with (aside from Yayoi and Kouji), but will eventually live up to its tags.
Also, I will shamelessly be geeking out over music in this story. That is technically what Given is about. You have been warned.

Summary

In the process, they learn that they have a second chance at making their dreams become reality...and that they are not alone.
Noctis finds himself in control of his destiny for the first time in his existence. By working alongside Heroes from other Realms, the King of Kings slowly learns how to Build his own Star. With the Help of Luna and Ardyn, Noctis must collect the Souls of their loved ones and start their record over.
The final part of Just Live Til You Die. Must read prior parts beforehand.

Summary
The second part of this story takes place during the actual game. Noct and Prompto, fresh from their breakup, embark on the journey that His Majesty had charged them with alongside Ignis and Gladiolus. Only two days into their journey, they learn of Insomnia's defeat and the death of the King. The Brotherhood must work together to set Lucis back to rights through their conflicted emotions.
The story is full of Noct and Prompto trying to move on without really getting ahead. I tried to stay as canon compliant as possible, with a few slip ups from events that occurred in part one. Must read part one prior to this bit.Series

Summary
Takes place almost three-years before the game. Noctis has always scorned his life as a Prince and had it not been for his best friend, Prompto, he more than likely would be a sulky unbearable teenager that took all of his aggression out on his royal retainers...or at least more so than he already does. As it becomes more difficult to make time for Prompto after high school, he comes up with a last ditch effort to keep them together, the world of room-mating. It doesn't take long for him to discover that Prompto means much more to him than he ever knew.
This story will cover the span of a two-year relationship, first love, the pangs of becoming an adult, and ultimately letting go when the time has come. Painstakingly canon-compliant...for the most part.

Summary
After having dinner with the band, Kaji and Haruki have Uenoyma pondering when Mafuyu actually started liking him. Uncharacteristic to him, Uenoyama attempts to question his boyfriend over the matter and it leads to progression in their physical relationship.

Summary
Haruki has found himself thrown into the company of Uenoyama Yayoi quite a bit lately. It's no secret that the beautiful young woman intimidates him. It probably doesn't help that she hates his guts, or at least so he thinks. However, that all changes when one day Yayoi asks to speak with him. They come to find that caring for the same people means that they have a lot more in common than they ever knew.
Totally inspired after reading volume six. This is like a comfort fic. Not a lot of action. Title is a Radiohead song. Please check it out.

Post chapter 41 inspired.

Summary
Mafuyu and Uenoyama new to sex (at least with one another) have a bad experience. Instead of talking about it, Ritsuka runs off leaving Mafuyu feeling alone. With the advice from their older friends, they learn how to work through the problem.
Just a short story that floated around my head the other night :)
True to the anime, the title is a song, a UK one even, by peach, the band that Tool's bassist, Justin Chancellor, used to be in. It reminds me of Mafuyama <3
