Be respectful when filming or taking pictures in public.

It's one thing if you're filming or taking a picture of a busy tourist attraction where it's unavoidable that some of the crowd is going to be in your picture or video. But it's another thing to intentionally take a picture or video with the intent of capturing someone doing something you find funny or embarrassing, without their consent, with the purpose of mocking them or having "funny" content.

First of all, most people are going to rightfully feel like it's a violation of their boundaries to be intentionally filmed or photographed without their consent. It's also just bullying behavior to take a picture or video of someone with the intention of mocking or ridiculing them.

Some people might think it's harmless if the other person never finds out they're being filmed or photographed, but it's still heavily disrespectful regardless of whether or not they find out. And you can't ever be certain it won't get back around to them.

And some people think "it's all in good fun" or "we're laughing with them, not at them" but if it's someone you barely know, or don't know at all, you can't know how it's actually going to make them feel.

It's unfortunate how thoroughly the far right/white nationalists co-opted Nordic/viking iconography because some of it is cool as hell

Had to pause with the book stuff to make a few Christmas presents for the younger kids. You can do some pretty cool stuff with an old 2x4 and some left over leather scraps. My eldest made them all matching Dunedain cloaks to go with their swords. They'll be quite the crew.

happy (late) birthday to my dear @lucreziagiovane 💛🫶🏻

A chance meeting between WoL Aureia Malathar and Meryta Khatin, as Aureia is trying to find some help with her plant experiments.

@myreia thank you for being such a supportive friend, always. I wanted to figure out how Aureia and Meryta could meet, and I hope this works.

Fandom: FFXIV | Words: 955 | Read on Ao3

Aureia Malathar (wol) & Meryta Khatin (adventurer) | Heavensward | friendship Rating: Gen. Botany, meeting and friendship, popotos (no not lala, actual popotos)

Seed

Meryta Khatin is busy digging in the popoto rows, pulling out weeds and checking the plants for dark spots, when she notices the adventurer staring at her. She’s dark haired, one hand in the pocket of a dark coat, the other around a staff. Or a lance. Meryta isn’t sure. She continues the popoto inspection, and to her delight they all they all look good. She pulls up another weed.

The adventurer is still staring, fidgeting. Her hand smoothes her hair behind her ear, which marks her half-elezen, and Meryta notices it’s tinged with red at its ends.

There’s nothing up here besides the popoto experiment, so Meryta gets up, and wipes the dirt of her hands as best she can.

“Can I help you?”

“No.” Hand back in the pocket. “I was merely curious.”

“I was just checking the popotos. They’re for supporting the community here, if we find the right sort.”

“I’m sorry – are you an adventurer or not?”

The half-elezen pushes her hair behind her ear again. It’s studded with small rings. She reminds Meryta of someone, but she isn’t sure who. Meryta realizes she’s been too busy to change, and she’s still wearing her archer’s coat and dragonskin pants. She’s not really dressed for weeding, but then again – any outfit that can get dirty will do for it. It does explain the confusion, though.

“Oh! I’m both? I do some adventuring work, but I’m also a botanist of sorts, along with a few other things. I’m a student of Furfucha’s. In Gridania.” She sticks out her hand. “I’m Meryta, Meryta Khatin.”

The woman takes it, shakes in firmly. It’s warm, despite the cold wind blowing through Idyllshire.

“I’m ���”

“You’re the Champion of Eorzea! Now I recognize you.”

The woman’s smile falls, then picks up again in flash. Her ruby eyes are a little harder than before.

“Yes, that’s – me.”

“Sorry I didn’t recognize you!”

“It’s fine. Do you like – plants?”

Meryta is a little intimidated by all she’s heard of the Champion of Eorzea and the Scions of the Seventh Dawn. She should have recognized her, how many red eyed, dark haired, half-elezen could there be? She’s striking, and now that she knows, it’s more than obvious.

“No surely, it’s an honor, I – um, I mean I’ve heard –”

“- doesn’t matter. Please call me Aureia. I just wanted to ask about the work with the plants.”

“You want to know about the popotos?”

“Yes! I mean – maybe? I like flowers, and there are so many pretty ones around here.”

“There truly is. The hinterlands are nice, aren’t they?” She rubs her hands together. “Well, when it’s not pouring or a windchill comes through.”

The champion – Aureia laughs a little. “True enough. I was mayhap looking to pick up some tricks. I’ve been trying to grow a few flowers from here.” The other woman pauses, and pushes her hair behind her ear again. “It’s but a personal project and the popotos here look like they do well.”

“They do now, but it’s been a bit of a struggle. It’s about the right sort, and all the growing conditions. With all the chill rain here.”

Aureia frowns a little. “I thought plants needed water.”

“Some, but they can also get too much. Depends on the plant really.”

“How do you know?”

“You have to learn or ask. If the plant gets drooping leaves with yellow spots and soil is wet, not dry, it’s probably too much water. Usually it’s good to check the soil before watering, especially for plants in pots or planters.”

“Check the soil?”

“I just stick my finger in there.” She holds up her hand and makes a clawing motion with her pointer finger. “Though sometimes it’s a disease and it’s harder to get rid of.”

“Mayhap I should just forget about it.”

“No, don’t worry, you can always try again. Trial and error, just like the popotos here. This is the fifth crossbreed and the first one that seems to work. Sorry I keep going on about the popotos. What have you tried to grow?”

“Just whichever I found.” Aureia brow furrows. “I think they were blue.”

“I wonder –"

It starts to rain, and as Meryta said herself earlier, as it sometimes does in Idyllshire, it pours in buckets. Aureia looks up and they share a look, and then they both make a run for The Hard Place. They’re only a little wet when they make it inside.

“Will the popotos be alright?” Aureia asks. “With the rain, I mean.”

“The soil should have enough drainage. We’ve been working on it, and with the new strain too. It’s a cross breed of some a variant from the Sea of Clouds, so it’s more cold resistant, and hopefully able to withstand…” Aureia’s eyes look distant, and Meryta trails off. “I guess you don’t care that much.”

Aureia chuckles. “Yes, not that much. But I did want to ask for help with the flowers?”

“I’ll be happy to help.” She really is, she likes helping – whether it’s the farmers here or a single person. That Aureia is a the Warrior of Light is a little intimidating. “I’m sure you’ll soon have plants overgrowing your lodging.”

“I highly doubt that.” Aureia snorts and her eyes sparkle. “I could use a drink. Join me? Tell me of these plants that are so easy they will grow everywhere.”

“Gladly.”

Soon, they’re sitting in a cozy corner, Aureia returned with a bottle of red wine Adkiragh produced from who knows where. Meryta sips slowly, and tries to think of all that can help Aureia. Soon, however, their conversation drifts to other matters, as the Taverns hums to life with other patrons seeking refuge from the rain.
