also. balthier has become so used to sitting at the helm of his ship for years, and though he has fine posture, he was never aware how bad he was in need of a massage until his whitemage bedmate got those hands on him. vaan’s natural intuition to heal and dalmascan predisposition to touch has him doting on balthier at night, and vaan gives the best massages. he’s patient and thorough and balthier finds himself being ever-grateful once vaan starts working at muscles he’s had no idea were so gnarled. balthier holds a lot of tension in his neck and jaw as well during his day-to-day, and vaan helps relieve it by paying attention to everything.

tl;dr doting whitemage bf give good massages to tense pirate

Ashe and Rasler

I like to imagine a simple ball, before the war. Officially without purpose, both Kings are willing to slowly bring the two kingdoms closer. Rasler and Ashelia, young but not naive, are well aware of the political situation. They know they should be the perfect match.

The Princess stays quiet, observant and composed. She is approched by the Prince, bowing before her with a gentle smile and respect. She offers her hand as protocol requires.

Throughout the night, the two teenagers converse looking at each other knowingly. Rasler is surprisingly sweet. He is genuinely interested in the young but smart princess.

During the year, they will meet again, more and more at ease with each other. Ashelia will visit Nabudis, and she will steal their first kiss, hidden behind bushes of flowers.
