    Summary

    Naoya Zenin is a misogynist with a tongue piercing, a superiority complex, and a problem: he might actually care about you. You’re a Special Grade sorcerer, a feminist, a teacher, and apparently the only person dumb enough to keep sleeping with him. It was supposed to be casual. Then you were shot.

    Mostly Naoya POV or close Naoya POV. You can read this as a Naoya/Reader fic or Naoya/OC with a You POV. Pick your poison.

    I write Naoya as horrible, not violent in this relationship. He’s controlling, sexist, emotionally constipated, and convinced he’s being reasonable. Think less “abuser,” more “horrible little man losing a war against his own feelings.” He's canon-adjacent.

    I don't plan on redeeming him, but I do plan on making him grow. Entirely against his will. Please beware the slow burn tag.

    This fic isn't complete. We are currently in the second part of the fic at the Zenin estate.

    Summary

    Sephiroth doesn’t do press. He doesn’t do propaganda. And he certainly doesn’t do publicity.

    After six marketing specialists quit in rapid succession—some fleeing in silence, others with scorched egos—Shinra’s PR Department is out of options. Under mounting pressure from the President, they place one last bet on a wildcard: Thatcher, an enigmatic cinematographer known for filming the unfilmable—creatures so dangerous, most people never live to tell the tale.

    She’s not there to curate his legend. She’s there to see him. Frame by frame.
    And that makes her more dangerous than anything he’s faced.

    Sephiroth expects another wide-eyed media pawn. What he gets is someone who doesn’t flinch when he looks her way. Someone who keeps calm when things get real. Someone who watches him like he’s the rarest subject she’s ever studied—and the most human.

    Stranded together during a mission gone wrong, trust takes root in the cracks neither of them want to admit exist. Between hostile terrain, broken comms, and danger on all sides, the space between them only gets smaller.

    He’s spent years avoiding the lens.
    She’s the first one who makes him want to be seen.

    Summary

    After an attempt on Dr. Rosalind Faremis’ life, Shinra assigns its most formidable asset—Sephiroth—to protect her. But Rosalind’s enemies are not just lurking in the shadows; they stand among the very men who claim to safeguard her. Her revolutionary technology, Glamour, has drawn the attention of those who would kill to control it, including the enigmatic Professor Hojo.

    As deception weaves its way through Shinra’s ranks, Rosalind finds herself entangled in a dangerous dance with the Silver General himself. Sephiroth is a guardian unlike any other—lethal, unreadable, and bound to the company that may wish her dead. The closer they become, the more uncertain her fate grows. Is he her protector, her executioner, or something far more dangerous?

    Summary

    They say immersion is the best way to learn a language and country's culture. They never mentioned how magical abilities and eccentric characters could make that plunge more like a swan dive off a skyscraper.
