You probably know what happened after Lightning Farron boarded the purge train, but what if she hadn't? what if she had listened to her superior officer? What if the story took a few unexpected twists? eventual HopexLight pairing, rated T for now but probably will be M in later chapters.

A compilation of short stories featuring Hope and Lightning. Mainly based on Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII, it may feature works based on XIII and XIII-2 in the future.

During their adventure together, Hope and Lightning come to learn some interesting things about themselves...and each other.

I got the idea from hearing about the Thirteen Days from the game. An alternative world of Final Fantasy XIII. Basically it's a story of what happens within the thirteen days of the Fireworks Festival. Hope and his mother were going to visit Bodhum on vacation, until tragedy happens and Lightning has to take care of Hope. There's more to it about the story, you'll see and find out.

From the time he was just fourteen he knew that he loved her; he only wished that she knew too. Not even the sands of time will stop him from saying the words aloud to her. Progression of the relationship. Starting in XIII and eventually moving to XIII-2. Rated M for later content. Fluffy wuffy.

Beginning of Final Fantasy XIII, with scene by scene recounting of Hope/Light, but with a little romantic embellishing.

I figured the title might be a little weak, but I couldn't think of a better one. Anyways, Lightning and Hope are now going to separate ways, cause of a little argument they have after the battle of Odin. Soon after they're long gone, Lightning goes back to find Hope, and helps the boy overcome his despair.

An Alternative Universe of Final Fantasy XIII. Hope lost his parents when he was very young, so he was raised and cared for in the Farron Residence. However, one day, Hope discovers a hidden secret about his past. Lightning and Serah now has to be with him when he finds out the truth.

Different events happened in Palumpolum. Hope lost his dad, his house and he got shot. Lightning had to take him to safety. Once there, Lightning comforts the Hope when he finds himself scared and weak. (I know, completely unlike Lightning)

This story takes place six months after Cocoon's fall, where Lightning takes Hope in after discovering what happened with him and his dad. Hope now lives with Lightning. Also, there's gonna be characters from other FF games guest staring (Just thought it would be interesting like how ObstinateMelon in Deviantart does it in his FFVII comics) Ignoring events of Final Fantasy XIII-2.

Oneshot set after the events of my story Under the Night Sky. Hope and Lightning are caught in a snowstorm and have to take shelter in an abandoned Guardian Corps facility overnight. But it isn't all bad, they have each other and a jar of hot chocolate.

Lightning Farron just wanted to save some people from the purge, but she didn't know that she'll end up going on a big journey to fight against her own fate. Onesided HopexLight, but fluff nonethless

Post-Chapter 10. She would have to try to express herself better, or she would lose an important person. [One-shot]

Post-Fall, this will be a story all about the former L'Cie making new lives for themselves, some in more ways than one. not much of a summary but it's a good fic i promise :) continuation of A Cursed People.

Lightning has taken up drinking to fill the void after Serah's wedding, feeling alone and abandoned. Luckily, someone is always there to watch over her.

Hope and Lightning remain behind to collect themselves after waking up in Lake Bresha. The two talk for a bit and it might just spark something more. Either way, it all began with a blush. Hope x Lightning. In-game. Connected Semi-One-shots. Marked as complete, although more may be added at a later date. Up for adoption in the meantime, if anyone really wants it.

Hope was always wondering from that day forth why he had been left behind. At least, that's what he told himself what he thought about whenever his mind went back to her...

Lightning was unsure of this. Being so close to him without the others around, but Hope needed help now and the camp was still a ways off. What a late night patrol this had turned out to be.

Hope and Lightning end up with an early morning patrol shift, the first time they're alone together since Palumpolum. Hope wants to take advantage of that and share his pent up feelings with his idol, but will she feel the same? Hope/Light cheesy fluff and first post attempt to boot!

Just three words and eight letters, yet a million ways to say them the wrong way. HopexLight - Rating varies.

Lightning and Hope are deep within Pulse but when they're attacked by cie'th and Lightning barely surviving hundreds of miles from civilization will Hope be able to save his best friend? Post game. Apologies for laughable summary but check it out. PLEASE REVIEWW!

"Hope surrounded by older girls, obviously attracted to him naturally because he's Hope, and Lightning coming in and grabbing him all like 'He's mine. Go away before you become acquainted with my gunblade.'" Dark Flame's words for this request, verbatim. With my own, perverted, horomone-rampid twist. *post-game/AU; requested by Darkflames and Fire*

There were two kinds of lightning, one that destoryed, and one that could protect. One he feared, and one he loved. Oneshot, onesided HopexLight

These thoughts were not welcome at this time. He was suppose to be fighting for his life. He was suppose to be protecting the others. If that was the case though, then how exactly did he get to be thinking about her lips... Hope X Light. Set during time on Gran Pulse, somewhere around Yaschas Massif

In between going to Pulse and Oerba. No spoilers except one: Lightning's real name just another side quest of some sort. The story is from the point of view of Hope Estheim and Lightning Farron. Indicating HopeXLight... Sorry I fail at making summaries...

Hope and Lightning's cute moment together...HopexLightning.

I watched the boy sleep, watched him dream. Then he spoke, just the one word. "Mom?"

Falling backwards he landed on his bed at looked up at the ceiling, Let his mind wonder. He knew he had fallen for Lightning but he refused to Admit it to himself. He had loved her from the first moment that he had saw her. Suddenly someone knocked on the door and a voice said "Hay are you ready Hope?". HopeXLighting oneshot

Hope Catches a cold while traveling and Lightning trying to warm him up. Hope/Lightning Oneshot,sorry for the bad summary

She smiled at his attempt of humor. It was a warm smile. A smile that never really appeared on the girl's face, really. Seeing this made him happy. He hardly ever saw her like this.-Takes place on Gran Pulse. HopexLight.

When Hope's parents suddenly become unfit to take care of such a fragile, young boy, social authorities are forced to send him to an emergency contact enlisted under his name - a soldier, an inspiration, a... crush? But when Hope is suddenly gifted with something of a celestial power, he quickly learns the hard way that he must be careful of what he wishes for.

'I used to hate people, I used to be 'the soldier' everyone knew and feared. but around you i have Hope' 'and around you i have Light and right now we're just best friends, but maybe someday we could be something more...' Suck at summary. posible OOCnes

Before he tells Light he loves her, he has to let everyone else in on his secret. And some friends they're turning out to be...

Hope finds himself falling in love with Lightning, but he is only 14, and she is 21. Is this forbidden love doomed to fail, or will it blossom into a beautiful relationship? Hope X Lightning Forever! XD

What do you think happened between coming from Gapra Whitewood and heading towards Palumpolum find out how these two relationship develops early and how they choose to handle that ordeal.

-Dear God it's an updated!- Fang's falling for Hope but now she finds out what she's gotten into. Hope is bolder then she thought and with the two of them seeking shelter in a cave but there are no barriers between them physically or emotionally.

Lightning has an accident when sparing with Hope.

After meeting Alexander, Hope has a hard time falling asleep. Perhaps a bath in the river with Lightning will calm his nerves?

After fighting some pesky PSICOM Huntresses, Fang makes Lighting question her feelings towards Hope. Hinted FangxVanille Warning:Fluffy one-shot. Fluff galore...yet not sickeningly fluffy.

Lightning gives Hope advice on how to please a woman. I think you could guess why it's rated M.
