A sketch of Sanson and Guydelot for @mathclasswarfare who won my raffle slot from the FF Artist Charity event! I was so happy these two were requested! Being a BRD player, I have a soft spot for these guys lol

The event happens yearly featuring a ton of great artist auctions and raffles, with all the funds going towards charity. You can learn more about it here: https://x.com/FFArtistAuction

Most Punchable Job Trainer - Ranged + Magic DPS

Merging these two because they don't have many individually and also didn't have many that seemed obviously punchable

There are NPCs all over the place in the Starlight Stalls!!

I took quick screenshots of the ones I could find, though I wouldn't be surprised if I missed a few lol.

Under a readmore because it's fairly image-heavy.

EDIT: Two NPCs I missed have been added.

DoH/DoL Guildmasters:

(Geva from the Leatherworkers' guild is responding to her kids saying they like the punch.)

Conjurer/White Mage Characters:

Archer Characters:

Bard Characters:

Pictomancer Character:

Lancer character (whom I missed at first because it's been a while and he doesn't have any pop-up dialogue):

Minions:

Mother Miounne:

The Man, The Myth, The Legend, Godbert Manderville The Saint of Nymeia!

The Starlight Stalls are so charming, and it was a lot of fun finding all these characters out and about. :D (No Aymeric that I could find, but that's fine, he's celebrating with Drakyr anyway.)

These are incredibly silly and I have no real explanation for them so instead I will refuse to elaborate and leave

[faestorian]

some more underrated NPCs uwu (and two Uriangers, cause why should he not get two keychain designs, I ask!! maybe his pretty face will stop haunting me at last)

FLUFF-uary 2025 Day 2: Banter/Flirting

Fandom: Final Fantasy XIV Relationship: Sanson Smyth/Guydelot Thildonnet

Gods, but it's good to be home again! As Guydelot stretches in the late afternoon sunlight filtering through Gridania's familiar trees, he could swear he feels frost crackling in his bones. After so miserably long in Garlemald, the bard hadn't been certain he'd ever feel warm again; no amount of huddling around the fire or curling up with Sanson in the quiet privacy of their tent ever seemed to thaw him out completely.

For all it's late autumn here at home, with a crisp bite to the air, it might as well be the height of summer.

"Home." At his side as they emerge from the Canopy, Sanson echoes his thoughts, sounding weary and grateful all at once. And well he should; Garlemald had been soul-taxing. "Thank the Matron we don't have to report tonight." A-Ruhn-Senna had command of the Gridanian unit of the contingent; that burden fell on his shoulders - and better him than Sanson, as far as Guydelot cared.

"Sanson the Stiff, eager to avoid duty?" Guydelot grins, slinging an arm across Sanson's shoulders. "What is the world coming to?"

Heedless of propriety, Sanson leans into him. "Don't grow accustomed to it. I'll come to my senses in the morning, I assure you."

It doesn't feel quite right to leave Garlemald behind just yet; there's more than enough work left to be done... but the fighting's done, now that the Tower of Babil is taken, and the Garleans none too pleased to have a foreign army camped on their soil, so it was in everyone's best interest to see the better portion of the Ilsabard Contingent dispersed for the moment... and Guydelot'd been in no great hurry to argue for lingering behind. Sanson had his reservations, too, he knew, but from what Eve's told them...

Things in the rest of the world might get ugly fast.

Hard to fathom that, though, with Gridania quiet and peaceful. The contingent's return had been kept quiet - there were those who protested the idea of aiding Garlemald - so the streets aren't bustling with families come to greet their returning loved ones. Yet, anyhow. As word gets out, Guydelot has no doubt things'll get busier as the night wears on.

By then, luckily, they'll be safely home. Sanson'll want to visit his own family in the morning, doubtless; they'll have word he's made it home safe from others, and they'll expect him bright and early. Them, Guydelot reflects, smiling - he's a fool if he thinks they won't expect him to tag along, too.

"What are you smiling about?" Sanson peers up at him, eyebrows raised.

It only makes him smile more. "What's not to smile about? Garlemald gone quiet, us safely home, and a warm bed waiting-"

"I should like a hot bath first."

"Enough hot water for two?"

"Did you not get your fill of communal bathing in Garlemald?" They'd all made use of Camp Broken Glass's one functional bathhouse - once they'd gotten the ceruleum engines that powered the heaters and the running water going again.

Guydelot grins, letting his arm slide down Sanson's back, until his hand rests on Sanson's hip instead. "I didn't, as it happens. I reckon I've got a little more shared bathing to work out of my system-"

Sanson swats at him, laughing. "Insufferable. We'll see."

Good to be home, indeed.
