In a garden surrounded by violet flowers, Haurchefant stands wearing a dashing white poet's shirt and black leather boots and trousers, gazing down lovingly at Gisèle. She is kneeling on the ground, resting back on her white pony-hooved boots among violet petals, and is dressed in a scanty white bodysuit with ruffled silk armbands and a unicorn's horn, tail, and ears. He tenderly grasps her chin, tilting her face up at him; she gazes up at him with gentle doe eyes, her arms crossed submissively before her in the abeyante position of an anguissette.

"...I do not believe this very pure of heart, minou."

Haurchefant, shirtless, kneels reverently to Gisele's back. Framed by candlelight, he gazes up at her with his lips parted and eyelids heavy, clinging to her thighs.

Gisèle lounging on a grand chair wearing a red velvet bustier trimmed with rosettes. Haurchefant is knelt before her, gripping her thigh as he gently kisses the inside of it. Her other leg is draped over his shoulder, and she smiles down at him, with her fingers gently running though his hair.

i shall make of you an altar, my love

probably a toss up between A Warmer Hearth (the #gishaurche origin story) and Cherchez Les Femmes (aka corsetfic). both fics were labors of love but the latter is so intensely personal.

Gisèle’s leather fetish is almost entirely Haurchefant’s fault (and Ysayle’s). Before she got involved with him, she liked wearing it purely for aesthetic reasons, but his kink quickly became her own. 😆

Also corsets. There’s a reason she specializes in making them.

A mock romance novel cover with Haurchefant laying down with Gisèle in front of a fireplace. Text reads: Condemned by all the world, a sorceress finds sanctuary in... A Warmer Hearth Monarch Press The Harbor Herald Bestseller! Gisèle des Fortemps, HRH

Reposting my romance novel covers over here. They were so fun to make!

Fanfic Chain! Quote with a fav fic of yours!

A Warmer Hearth is the first long form fic I ever wrote for ffxiv and it’s still one of my faves. It’s how #gishaurche first happened, following the Bloody Banquet.
