Has your journey been good?Has it been worthwhile?

We will find our way.

feat. @ahollowgrave, @hazelkjt, @this-is-ris & @nolanel-corbeaux

Final Fantasy XIV certainly isn't my first MMO, and I've been alive enough decades to be way too jaded about everything. Yet here I am, crafting these images of my friends (virtual representations of them) and feeling all kinds of ways the entire time.

I met Hazel and began raiding with him back in Shadowbringers. That's actually when I met Nolanel, too; I initiated our friendship when I messaged him privately for Paladin advice. He was the only other Paladin player I knew at the time, and I wanted to become a better raider.

We got along almost instantly.

In Endwalker, Hazel and I ran a second static to clear for Nol and some other friends. This is when we met Ris, who was recommended to us as a DPS by someone in our main static. She grew on us immediately, and I eagerly roped everyone into the RP-GPOSE-tumblr pipeline. Sorry, not sorry.

Come Dawntrail, Ris will be running her own static while Hazel and I go back to our main group, with Nol coming along as a fresh DPS. We've already made plans to reconvene after Savage, though, to get our DSR clear together.

I hope, too, that Pigeon will keep listening to our bullshit. She mentioned once that no matter how many times she watches us prog, she still has no idea what the fuck the mechanics are. Still sticks around though, giving us moral support (and watching us play with cursed objects in Phasmophobia). So there, in those images, is Odette greeting our tired asses after raid and asking us how it all went.

Fuck. It's been a real fun time.

I've really loved getting to know all of you. I really look forward to traumatizing developing our OCs more in Dawntrail together.

(Oh, and a very special thank you to @thefreelanceangel for the beautiful divider. Seriously, she's amazing and super talented.)

Featuring @iron-sparrow and @hazelkjt on an adventure into some ruins together!

Sometimes you see something small that sparks ideas into your head. You think you have an answer to a question that had just formed. Can you do this? You have the tools. You have the knowledge. Do you have the conviction?

Now is the time to find out.

Do not think of consequences. Do not think of whether you should continue.

Commit.

Edgy/misc OC ask meme! thank u @karoiseka 💖

What's an AU that would be interesting to explore with your OC?

these are my current AUs!! they're all over 8 years old so i kind of need new ones:

Elliot Dies AU

I like this one a lot. before eli dies of the red throat, he writes about 2 dozen letters and makes josseloux and ephemie hide them around. nol becomes obsessed w finding these post-mortem scraps of elliot

Nolanel Dies AU

p much elliot moving thru the fallout of arranging a funeral that's part state affair and part tearing him into excruciatingly tiny pieces. he also has to guide their daughter thru it

Inquisitor AU

aka 'nol gets too much nerve dmg from the vale and becomes evil to cope.' he becomes an inquisitor bc he cant be a drg, and tortures ppl with magical rings and gloves.

Bloodborne AU

eli is a blood saint afraid that hes gonna die of bloodloss, so he run away w the hunter he just met (nol) and who has like, 2 weeks to live before he turns into a monster. also l'selle is there

WWI AU

nol and eph (disguised as a man) are in the french trenches getting shellshocked until nol finally gets institutionalized. eli is a nurse who constantly harasses him with gay references nol can't understand lol. l'selle is also there. i talked abt it here n here before.

Modern/Cruise/Coffee Shop AU

jumble of 'its new england, jos runs a coffee shop with a community art board that eli lords over, nol is intermittently on leave w marines, also they met on a cruise ship w the rest of the gang' (l'selle. also rothe)

oh i just remembered phantom of the opera au, tangled au, and first au (which is particularly excellent), but at least those are documented on my blog.

If you met your OC, would the two of you get along?

elliot would be a rly cool friend to have. i feel like ive become more like him as i grow older (im absolutely not an aesthete but the 'physical pain when confronted to ugliness' is becoming more real lol). i enjoy pianos, poetry, and pacifism, and i wouldnt steal his spotlight, so we could def be easy friends

nol............... not the greatest person. hes too much maintenance. the reward of knowing him does not outweigh the pains of it tbh LOL. all the stuff he Actually enjoys doesnt interest me at all other than music. ehh no thanks

[knyaifey]

artfight attack. and also psychic attack on @regretorb

nolanel would not fuckign wear that but its what haurchefant would have wanted

Tagging (I'm sorry) @iron-sparrow @hazelkjt @ahollowgrave @selnyam @nolanel-corbeaux No obligation!! No Pressure!!

quick facts

height: 5’10’’

age: 55 (young for a Viera)

gender: cis woman

pronouns: she/her

sexuality: pansexual

pros

Softest bnuy

Certified healer and picks the freshest/best flowers, with partners’ favorites in mind

Touchy, loves to hold hands and will brush your hair every day, maybe even style it for you- and apply your skincare with the most gentle touch you’ve ever known

Loving is her nature, never a fighter

Great at cuddling and also makes a great pillow 

cons

Lots of long hair- you may wake up with it in your face (or mouth)

Not the strongest, cannot win a spar!!

Will put others before herself 100% of the time

If she catches on a partner is not feeling well (emotionally) she will not let it go, and gently pry to try and help

details

Her aethersight also reflects traces of Dynamis- she can see one’s aether /and/ emotions in a given moment- Big glittering green eyes

Smells like fresh flowers and lovely herbs- very tidy and clean

Loves the outdoors- Gleaner and Viera at heart! Want to go fishing? Maybe foraging together? She will also settle for watching the sunset or moon gazing together in a field of flowers

Soft hair, a little bunny tail- as well as the signature tall Vieran ears. Her excitement is always visible, ft. flappy tail. Sharp canines, playful bites but won’t break skin

Sexually: Switch- and pleaser. If top- she is gentle and slow, constantly taking note of what her partner likes as she goes. Anything sexual is a very personal connection to her- as such she treats it with extreme care and lots of pre/after care.

Romantically: Has a lot of love to give- but often selective as to whom she will take as a partner; foregoing those who just look to her for a quick reprieve and not someone who would stay around for her.
