It's an older game, so idk if this is necessary, but! Big-time spoilers for Tales of the Abyss!

***

I've been sitting for years on a fic idea, a "what if" where Luke had actually died at the Absorption Gate and all the fallout moving out from there. It revolved around the Closed Score starting to come true-- Peony gets assassinated in a massive military push by Kimlasca, and Jade, in a desperate attempt to maintain Malkuth's integrity long enough to implement some sort of plan to prevent the rest of the Score from happening, basically makes Nephry Empress by forging documents saying that she and Peony had been secretly married.

It was this whole political intrigue/sad adventure/drama thing, and I had the entire thing planned out and started, but... I stopped because I got scared, considering the way the climate of fandom has gone, and I was going to be playing around with Jade/Nephry as a sad/messed-up pairing. I thought about removing that dynamic, but it was so incredibly key to a couple of decisions that they both made later in the story that I couldn't see a way around it-- and, frankly, I didn't want to remove it because it's a relationship that I love exploring every angle of.

I've considered taking it back up, but idk. I'm not sure if it's worth the inevitable backlash I'd get, even if some people were still around that would enjoy it, lol.
