My girl got released sometime ago, but I was so busy that forgot to share the video. Rectifying that here it is!

"you know as i grow older in my middle age I've defiantly become more relaxed around sex, I mean yes, its very sweet to do the romantic dinner and the roses and the sensual romance. 9 times outta 10 tho I just wanna eat a weed brownie and have some fun sex"

i cannot tell you how much i agonized over how many elements to have in my magic system for this world. at first i thought about just doing the classic four elements. since they're nice and even and i got a whole duality thing going on with light vs dark.

then i thought about doing seven (very similar to genshin's elments) and having deities themed after the heavenly virtues and deadly sins. i still like the idea but it really didn't fit with the rest of the systems in place.

ultimately i settled on modeling them after final fantasy elements. particularly after ff14. i got six elements and there's two deities per element to reflect the dark and light side of each element. and then a high king and queen that light and dark respectively.

...this is actually a lotta work for something that doesn't have a huge appearance in the story. magic as a whole has fallen out of use since technology has advanced enough to make certain things easier and safer to make the magical version redundant.

but i like having the background. like, there's gonna be plenty of ruins and vague mentions of the gods and stuff. maybe next i'll write up something about the gods. they're spoken about as being "dead" and "long gone" in myths and legends after a war between them. i have so many thoughts about them.

FFXIV Write 2023, Day Twenty-Five: Call It A Day

Yawning widely enough that her jaw cracks, Statera rubs her good eye with the back of her hand. Forcing her vision to focus on the page in front of her again, the words swim in her vision.

Letting her head fall forward, the impact of it hitting the page fills the study, her ears flicking. A loud groan comes up through her throat as she vents her frustration, her tail lashing angrily.

Forcing her back to straighten and lifting her head, she winces as sunlight streams in through the window, bright and glaring on her face. Realising how late - or early - it had gotten, the Miqo'te closes the book with a snap and stands up, rolling her scarred shoulder as she heads to bed.

Seeing T'laqa Tia make leaps and bounds once he had a bit of help, Statera kicked herself into gear - Archon Rayne is clearly a better academic mentor than the Warrior of Light, and she should be capable of the same kind of progress as Laqa.
