#Celadine Beauvette

[fourteenadventures]

I love Sabato__n’s Our Unending Journey over on Tapas a lot, and found out they were on the same server as me! So I did some fanart.

I feel like if Celadine and Tyfiel ever met, they’d talk shop on magic.

(+bonus Alfred meeting Calla in the background)

Read Our Unending Journey over here; https://tapas.io/series/Our-Unending-Journey/info

Trust me, its a great read!

Non-WoL here but;

Its already happened. Several times.

Cel is notorious for being a bleeding heart. If theres a miqo'te that needs help and comes through her door? Shes ready and there to help.

She currently has one shes fostering that was a Garlean Conscript since she was a kid.

But she also does this to non-miqo'tes too. ANYONE IS FAIR GAME FOR CEL HELP.

‪The universal cat distribution system happens to your WOL! Is it a (not a Scion) miqo’te, hrothagar, courel, or a house sized feline? How does your WOL react? Do they ignore the call or do they give them a life of luxury, as well as an adventurer can?‬

FFXIV Write Day 2

Prompt: Sway

Katla had never filled out a resume before. She’d never had to apply for a job before (unless one counted fulfilling Jura’s strange tests of character as “applications”). But, at the very least, she knew how to bullshit.

Hunched over a table in a little coffee house, sipping from the strongest, bitterest brew they had to offer, Katla frowned down at the leaf of paper before her, trying to think of the best way to answer the question posed to her. “Have you ever had a conflict with one of your fellow employees?” Sure. “How did you handle it?”

Somehow, Katla got the feeling that the honest answer of I cornered them in an alleyway and beat the tar out of them until they learned to keep their filthy mouth shut about me wasn’t the answer Lady Celadine Beauvette, proprietress of the Thaliak’s Codex Book Shoppe, was looking for.

She didn’t know a blessed thing about working in a book shop (‘shoppe?’ Why the extra letters?) either, but the slow season was here and Katla had sprained her ankle three days past, causing her to lose the (honestly rather shite) gig she’d had set up to feed her through the winter. Normally she’d fall back on her light fingers, plucking her living from the pockets of those who wouldn’t miss the coin, but a bad ankle she couldn’t run on plus a city full of guards who weren’t in her boss’s pocket equalled a gamble Katla didn’t feel like taking unless she absolutely had to.

How did you handle the conflict? Hrm. Katla chewed on the tip of her pen, thinking of the best pretty lie with which to sway her potential employer. Did her last fight with Jura count as a workplace conflict? True, Jura had been her boss, and experience of fights with the boss couldn’t possibly look good on a resume, but…

I removed myself from the situation and sought a more constructive use of my energy. There. That was a lovely little half-truth that didn’t at all hint at the ugliness of the event itself… Or did that imply she was bad with conflict, and would seek to avoid it..?

Grumbling, Katla sagged back in her seat, rubbing at her temples. Beauvette was a fancy noble type, right? Katla knew how to deal with that sort, didn’t she? Flatter, scrape, bow, agree with everything they say… Except Beauvette had left her family and, presumably, her stable of yes-men. She’d seemed clever when Katla had spoken to her. Formidable. Canny. The sort who could tell when they were being lied to for the sake of convincing them.

Maybe Katla should look elsewhere for employment. The Quicksand surely always needed waitstaff…

How did you handle a previous conflict with a fellow employee?

I took them aside and we settled our differences so that we could continue to work together.

It was basically the truth, minus a black eye and a split lip, and it was pretty enough to maybe, maybe sway the bookseller.

And hey, if not, there’s always begging...

Adding in to the #diveintoabook for my FC, @thaliakscodex !

Celadine isn’t one for going out during the summer time, due to her workaholic nature. But on days when the shop is particularly quiet, she loves to sneak into the Romance section and read the latest releases

Nhe'a admires Thavnairian alchemists as a class of people, and still gets a little starry-eyed about the High Crucible.

More specifically, he looks up to Celadine Beauvette (@fourteenadventures), the good lady of Thaliak's Codex, although I'm not sure if he realizes he does.

Agatha has been alive too long to still see any need for role models as such, though they nevertheless look to all the people they have loved during the course of their life if they ever need direction, and try to make them proud

psst. yall want another wol question?

tell me who they admire most! who do they look up to as a role model? a friend? a parent? some historical or fictional figure?
