Summary
Snow has something he needs to say. Lightning cannot hear it. This story was written before FFXIII-2 & Lightning Returns. Story is set in a post FFXIII universe, where humanity is trying to build a life for themselves on Gran Pulse after the events of the first game. It was on hiatus for 8 years, and I'm finishing it now, and cross-posting the first 10 chapters here. The last 7 chapters will be uploaded simultaneously (essentially). Additional warnings to be added as needed, and rating may increase eventually.

Summary
Every goddamn thing that could’ve gone wrong, did go wrong, and now Lightning is stuck with an unconscious, severely wounded Snow in yet another deserted Gran Pulse ruin until their friends can find them or until Snow dies; whichever comes first.
This is a pre-Light/Snow Evolution Outtake, and sort-of prequel to Do I Dare Disturb the Universe? It really belongs in both Series. This story can be read as a complete standalone as it takes place on Gran Pulse in FFXIII.
