Vermilion Trails

Description

Amber Liu is part of an elite military force called SeeD. Her job is to carry out missions from all over the world. But a conflict is soon to come that is bigger than anything else she has ever known. To survive this ordeal, she has to settle the score with an old rival, ally herself with unlikely friends, and be forced to face her own self and take responsibility for her actions.

Foreword

A word of caution: This IS going to be a Lunber fic. Kryber does play a major role here, but they're mainly rivals.

Now, with that out of the way, VT is a retelling of Final Fantasy VIII, a video game, in case people aren't familiar with it. Due to the genre, I thought this work would be more appropriate for a site like AO3. But hey, it's Lunber. The pairing seriously needs more love.

Chapter 15: Once again, I'm very glad you're back!! Hope things are going well for you at your new job. The other reason for your hiatus, the Amber thing...well that makes a ton of sense. But it's been weeks and we haven't heard anything so imma just keep writing like everything's still ok *weeps in the corner* I honestly can't with politics anymore. I'm trying to take the ignorance is bliss approach but that's damn impossible. There's just too much going on!

Anyway, loved the chapter. The awkward intimacy of Lunber is my favorite thing ever!! Hope to see things progress and hope to see them get caught doing it as well. I also loved the others reactions too it. Jackson's confusion was hella amusing. Just curious, are Amy and him gonna end up being a thing? With there little squabbles I could see that...

K I think that's pretty much it. I'm probably gonna re-read this chap over and over until you post again! And hopefully by tmrw or Sunday i could maybe get something out...

Chapter 13: Yaaaaaaaaaas. This was so amazing!! Entirely worth the wait! I loved hearing Obaba through in her two sense and I'm soooo happy that Lunber finally stopped being stupid!! They actually talked! And Amber, as awkward as she was, didn't screw things up! Bravo, dude. Can't wait for more :)

Chapter 13: Daebak! Amazing! Wonderful chapter.
I remember now clearly why I subscribed to this story. Hope LUNBER has a good end but this story doesn't look like its going to be completed any time soon.
CAN'T WAIT FOR THE NEXT CHAPTER!

Chapter 12: Yay a new chap! Krystal really pissed me off in this one, as she should've. Really want to see Luna go off on her. Like, for her to completely snap and yell at her for even thinking they'd get back together after what she did to Amber and for Krystal to be the witness of more cutesy Lunber moments with Luna helping her heal and stuff.

Chapter 11: Woo finally got around to reading this and ah!!! I was so expecting things to go to complete after the kiss but it wasn't that bad! It was awkward..but I'm glad they still got some talking in. Loved the end of the chap, despite their whole trying to survive thing, it was hecka cute. Really like how Amber is awkward, but not completely rejecting her feelings as I thought she would. Hope Luna continues to persevere and I can't wait til the others get back into the picture to see what their reaction to all this is

Chapter 10: *insert usual excuse here* yeah..haven't written in a while...oops. elated to see that you've managed to, though. I'm so happy with how this chapter came out! I love how you created their dynamic. Luna definitely fit into the female role of tending to the other's wounds and all, but I liked it. I get why you did it, since the character she's based off of isn't the crazy skilled combat fighter ashe you said, I liked being able to see Luna help Amber out in some way. I really wasn't expecting a kiss, either, though I am already saddened by how I can imagine how Amber will handle it in the next chapter. Can't wait for ur new story as well!! Perhaps, if I soon regain sight of where I'm going with my works, I'll churn out an update soon, too. Thats at least what I hope to do

Chapter 9: Yoo that dream sequence had me a lil confused for a bit but I get it now lol. Ahh Lunber's stubbornness is so fun! Though they're being kinda dumb with it, it's fun to see them get all worked up at each other because, as I've said before, I feel like it'll translate well later on in the story haha. Even tho it wasn't even that romantic, the thought of Luna keeping Amber's head in her lap while being so worried even after they fought is just so adorable and perhaps it is more romantic than I thought. They need to get their acts together and start realizing their feelings for each other!!! Hope that starts to happen in the near future
