Best plot. 😂😂

This is exactly how Remy LaRurente would solve his problems.

*sends snap to the groupchat and goes back to his daily chaos*

I think so many problems online can be solved by either going "damn, not my problem" or simply sending a screenshot to a group chat

people r saying the pranged role quests are the weakest and that’s probably true but to me they were worth absolutely everything bc the turali people are like ‘well, you’re a strong enough adventurer, maybe together we have a very slight chance of standing up to these people please help 🥺’ and then you go back to gyr abania and that one resistance person is like ‘Warrior of Light. Look at me-no no no, Look At Me. You Can Not Vaporize these petty thieves you’re going after. do you understand me. I need you at your worst grey parse. I want you to use the first button on your hotbar and NOTHING else. tell me you understand. you Can Not just fucking Vaporize these guys like you normally do.’

and I just have to believe your turali pal is like. what.

The exarch has accidentally seen most of the scions naked except for the wol who is the only one he was prolly hoping to accidentally see naked

i will give natlan exactly one (1) forgiveness point if they have mavuika do a version of the ka mate haka

first off, the ceremonial dance would be a great acknowledgment of her maori namesake, and a nod to the fact that she's the archon overseeing a sports tournament (ka mate haka most commonly seen when NZ teams face off in various sports, most famously the All Blacks) + the fact that it is also a battle chant (archon/nation of war)

but! the ka mate is also a celebration of life over death! "I die! I die! I live!" and. y'know. what do the people of natlan that go to fight in the night kingdom do. but triumph over death.

like c'mon. it'd work. and if nilou and ayaka can have their own dances, why not the people of natlan in the most appropriate way possible.

Write anyway, even if you think your idea sucks right now.

I want everyone’s best one liner writing advise!

Mine is that you have to know the ending of your story before you start it.

ngl i think i kind of was a genius for being like 'yeah this character is a scary killyou cannibal scary killer who scary kills you' and then realizing that the way my worldbuilding works out is that there's a nonzero chance that if you leave literally any body parts over they can just come back, depending on what they believe in their heart of hearts can kill them. Of course she'd start eating her kills. She probably tried normal stuff first and then realized it didn't work and she had to try harder if she wanted to actually keep them dead.

Day 5

Job

Even guildmaster (p.p.) Thubyrgeim herself didn't know what compelled her to entrust one of Maelvaan's Gate's more creative accountants with her first grimoire all this time ago, and to be entirely honest she still could not tell whether this choice had been a wise one.

The whole Nym business certainly seemed to have left an impression on the woman. Who knew if this was what had sparked her interest in the other side.

Well, she always had been a bit of a delinquent.

Ohhh that will be so useful during MSQ! No spamming num0 hoping the confirm picks the right npc from the crowd

Binge a show or a game. I basically stay far away from books, fics and anything that would require me to write until I get the urge to genuinely start writing again. Sometimes I color or doodle too and that’s fun. Usually takes me about three days to shift back into writing mode. 🙃

question time!

what do you do when you’re in a writing funk?

do you have a book you re-read, or a show you watch, or a place you go to? is it helpful for you to try a different project, a different hobby, or nothing at all?

I'm completely not extrapolating from a post about the Unfinished Tales (because I lost the book! ) and totally not making stuff up, so have a vampiric spider Luthien and a cat Sauron.

Also, Melko who looks like Loki, because he's quite similar personality-wise. Yes, she's discussing with him whether or not she's going to eat him.

Was looking it up and an Eorzean week is 8 days instead if 7, and with 32 days a month they have 384 days in a year but only 48 weeks. So the year is shorter in weeks even though it’s longer by about 19 days.

So someone thirty in Eorzea is just a touch older than their Earth counterpart.
