It's not the end (it's just begun) »
(Post-AC) It's over, finally over. With the geostigma receeding as the rain falls over Edge City and their enemies banished back into only their memories, it should be a time to celebrate. And yet, Tifa cannot truly feel happy; one part of their family is still missing, and after all her arguments with him have failed before, she is not sure if she can ever reach him again...

4Don't shoot the messenger »
A Turk did not have any use for regret in their lives. Their job simply did not allow it. Regret lead to guilt, which lead to doubt, which slowed you down. In the end, it would only get you killed in action. And still, there were 88 undelivered letters, locked away in Tseng's desk, which spoke of the one regret he could never quite shake, no matter how many years passed.

Taking (better) care
(Post-Advent Children) Use brings about wear, tear and rust. But so does neglect. Especially where relationships are concerned. Now is the time to pick up the pieces. Time to talk. And time to heal and do better. It's time to finally be a family again. (Where Marlene needs some more reassurance, and taking care of others is an art to be learned.)

Don't let me walk this road alone (I thought you'd lead me)
days after Patty's eighteenth birthday and instead of celebrating it with her, Dante is out of town. What is supposed to be "just another job" for the legendary demon hunter turns out to be so much more than that, and Patty is left behind fearing for her friend's - her family's - very lives, all the while starting to uncover just how little she had really known Dante. (Set in DMC5)

By your side I'll be (always and forever)

Here's what I'll do (I'll take care of you)
The veil between the human world and Hell is starting to thin, old seals cracking and barely holding up. Sparda is determined to be once again the shield of humanity and works tirelessly to find a solution - even at the cost of his own health, it seems. Eva is having absolutely none of that and intervenes. If he cannot take care of himself like he should, then she will.

Let me tell you (it's no secret)
Even nervous and anxious as she is, Eva's mind is set: She is going to confess to Sparda the next chance she gets. They have waited long enough for this, for them. And in the end, all the waiting might actually pay off.

Made it so obvious (did everything but say it)
Who said transitioning from one kind of love to the other was a smooth thing? Eva is going through a minor emotional crisis over being in love, while Sparda seems all too oblivious for someone his age. Blessed be friends like Tony, who are not afraid to shed some lights on things.

Ecdysis
(MGS4 Ending, Missing Scene) Big Boss sent both Snake and the world off with carefully chosen words before his death – it's time to part with the past, and move on to the future.

Wherever you wander (there's no place like home)
(Interlude, pointless fluff) Sparda had been acting secretive ever since they had talked the new development in their life together, and while not worried, Eva is very much curious what caused it. When he spirits her away one morning for a surprise, she can only wonder - what crazy idea has her lover concocted this time around?

1Sanctuary
(Pre-Games, established relationship) Legend or not, even the greatest Hunter might get tired and burnt out from his every day work every now and then, and Sparda simply doesn't know how to take care of himself. Luckily for him, Eva is more than willing to be there for him whenever he needs it, no matter the (late) time or place.

Snapshot
(Post-Game, light Spoilers) Posing to have his picture taken is really not what Nero had in mind, and having his picture taken with his… father… was not something that had even occurred to him before. Not that it was a bad thing, just... Could they maybe have all this without their friends poking fun at them?

In the morning (there is meaning)
(Pre-Games) Eva has known all kinds of mornings, good and bad. These, however, might have been her favorites: The ones where the ones she loved most where right there with her, greeting her before the dawn could.

Remember (you are not alone)
(Pre-Game, Missing Scene, Interlude, ignores part of the novel) Doubts and fears are ever-present. Too many of their friends are missing. Their foe seems unstoppable, and time is running out. Somewhere in the middle of this, on their way to Red Grave City, V comes to realize he knows less than he would like, and feels more than he should.

Redemption calls (onto all of those who persist)
(Spoilers for DMC5, Post-Game) Finding a way back to himself, back to his brother, and out of Hell - Vergil learns that those had been the easier parts of his new journey. Because redemption is not simply offered on a silver plate, and bonds take time to forge. But Nero might just be worth all of that.

Waiting for the Sun »
The thing was - Dante didn't celebrate things like Christmas. The last time he had celebrated any holiday was… well, frankly, he didn't really want to remember the last time, too much was tied to it that didn't feel good to remember. Now, if only he had remembered to tell all his friends that he didn't wish to celebrate. (Crossposted on AO3, Part 3 of "The Devil's own luck")

Speaking in tongues
While working on a case, Eva is once again reminded just how different she and Sparda are, no matter what good friends they have become, and can't help but feel a bit insecure about it. Sparda vehemently disagrees with that. (Part 1 of "The Devil's own luck", crossposted on AO3)

Now and forever (we'll be together)
The end of the world has been put to a forceful stop, the two of them and their loved ones are safe and sound, and it's as right in the world as it probably can get. As for Nero and Kyrie, peaceful early mornings such as this might just lead to a whole new beginning. (Part 2 of "The Devil's own luck", crossposted on AO3)
