[He’s beautiful, she thinks. He looks better in her midnight dress than she does, even though she thought it would have been a little bit big. He’s pulled gold ribbon through the lacing holes in the back, and he’s wrapped the excess around his waist and tied it into a bow, with the ends of it nearly trailing down to the lowest part of the skirt, at his heels. The gold matches the gold patterning that’s growing at his shoulders and hips and the tips of his horns, and the deep blue, star-patterned velvet of the dress is reminiscent of his hair, with its occasional stray white and grey strands. His long hair is pulled back into a thick braid which he’s pulled over his left shoulder, to counter his uneven horns.

When he offers her a hand, for just a moment, she thinks about pulling him into a kiss, but… he spent so long on his lipstick. It would be a shame to ruin it before they even make it to the party. It’s still tempting, of course, but… she’s feeling nice. For now.

Instead she presses a couple quick kisses to the silvery freckles that run along the back of his right hand. They’re a fairly recent discovery, and she can’t help but wonder where he picked these ones up. Not that he’ll know any better than she does, of course… but she wants to ask what he thinks, sometime.

When he laughs, there’s something metallic to the sound of it, and he gives her that smile that used to scare her, just a little, with his too-long fangs and his too-sharp teeth.

He’s like something out of a story… a beautiful creature come from the forest to steal her away from her home for who knows how long. And he did, she supposes… although, she never would have expected to enjoy being stolen away quite so much.]

I am currently doing something tedious... and a little bit stupid but that’s ok. I can write about nonsense to pass the time :)

Idk if I’ve voiced this in one of these before, but I wonder if anyone even opens these, even for a cursory glance. I’m not gonna like, ask you to call yourself out for it, I’m just curious... These are definitely more for me, anyhow. Just feels nice to get my thoughts down somewhere that’s not a formal text editor.

Anyhow. Currently, I’m chain queue-ing guildhests bc i want that title. I think it’d be funny. My funny little purple guy w “The Last Resort” would be really good I think. Entirely too edgy. Currently doing all this as gunbreaker too, while dressed like what I now realize is an eboy. Just a purple eboy with a musket. Wearing a nice little white and lavender shirt showing his chest and the shorts and sandals and earrings, dark purple hair w light bangs. And again a grizzly looking musket with all too realistic textures strapped to his back. The juxtaposition is already there but it’ll still work for dragoon and bard, dragoon being kinda just casual wear and bard being overdesigned flashy nonsense but still looking really well put together, and still in lavender. I really oughta mark down a picture of them eventually.

Oh, something really funny happened earlier, around when I started this long process. I’d been going around doing triple triad matches to get more cards, so that I could ALSO get the title “Deck Hoarder”, and eventually came back to the king guy in the gold saucer. I’ve been trying at this guy for a couple days now while in queue, but no matter how many times I beat him he just wouldn’t give up Bahamut. Well, I started a match with him and got maybe halfway through when my queue pops, and whatever, that happens like half of the time anyhow. I get into the guildhest, and we just blaze through it. So fast that for the first time ever I’m plopped right back into the match once the guildhest ends! Apparently when your timer on your turn runs out, the game picks a card for you, and I come in just in time to put down the last card myself, winning the match and finally netting me Bahamut. It was ridiculous!

At least I have it now. Don’t have the title though. Just 3 more cards. Unfortunately I am either A. still not very good at this or B. my cards are trash because I just can’t find another NPC I can beat consistently. To be fair some of them have busted decks, and my deck DOES kinda suck. I have exactly zero cards with a 7 on top for one of my 3 stars rn and it hurts. I also don’t have any of those snazzy op crossover cards yet.

This has all turned into one hell of a detour. Originally I picked up gunbreaker to soak some of the exp from all this post-HW content, which took longer than expected, then I got caught up in triple triad, and then suddenly got the itch to get a shiny new title, as fun as it is to stick with “Skysinger” especially on dragoon when everyone and their mothers slap on the eponymous “Azure Dragoon” the second they get it.

What else... I saw an Haurchefant look-alike earlier today, with the appropriate title and hair and face. But the name was wrong, and he was a samurai. And a few hours later I see him again, and this time he has a completely different hairstyle and color and it was so so weird. He kept the title too. Like my guy make up your mind. On that note I’m determined this time around to keep my wind-up Haurchefant minion with me for the entire game. I abandoned him too soon last time in the name of aesthetic, but this time is different. I have a purple music man that dresses exclusively in lavender and who made a point of giving Haurchefant headpats every time he saw him. The moment I obtained and summoned him for the first time I gave the minion a little headpat, and a catgirl came over and blew him a little kiss...... it was very cute. Haurchefant like-ers are good.

Hmmmm. I am going to Zone Out instead of whatever I was doing here until I fall asleep doing guildhests.

EDIT: I forgot a big one!!! There’s a second look-alike I saw recently, in some trial or other... it was Inquisitor Guillaime. The jackass fake inquisitor you meet in the Coerthas post-ARR quests. I was gonna mention him before but forgot. Well. I didn’t even know he was on this server specifically but there he is standing off to the side, here in Ishgard in queue for something. I’m gonna combust this is hilarious. WHY would you choose to dress up as him????? To get this exact reaction from people, I suppose.
