Hello my dear, i love you and your works with my whole heart💜 I was going through the updated list and I LOVED 45!!! I can't wait for it!!! A suggestion for it if you may, I would love the Reaper to be Freya. (ifuckinloveher) Just think about it, she's the Guardian of Avalon and she and Merlin have a certain connection. Since Merlin's a big deal she can be his personal Reaper. You can combine this with 21. So one day she comes to save the day and Lance freaks out you can't take Merlin now fair lady we will die w/o his help and he'll be alone when he comes back NO! I love love this aye just thinking about it makes me so happy!!!

No pressure ofc I am sure I would love it however you write!! Take care of yourself xx

(Referencing #8 (there is a new list with new numbers) from This List)

Unfortunately I've already got a whole ass plan written out for this!! It is a kinda cool idea, but the reaper in my head is some sorta badass Valkyrie type scary lady, armour and war paint and weapons, though maybe I'll try to fit Freya in anyway, because I do love her.

Merlin will see Reaper in the distance and just sorta "oop. Y'all stay here, gotta talk to my friend." He speaks to her, and apparently a particularly horrible death is coming and she's here to take him early if she's able, to save him the suffering. In the end he tells the others that she's a local he knows, and she's tagging along to point them in the right direction. Arthur protests but just gets ignored, Lance is staring at her like "oh my god it looks like the creepy ghost lady you describes who takes your... oh shit it is her." and Gwaine tries to flirt but immediately gets shot down. Maybe the lads take the piss a bit? Because Merlin has a lady friend? But then they're distracted by some disaster in which Merlin fuckin dies and then she does something weird and magic and wanders off with... Merlin's soul?? All "It'll take his body a while to heal from this, and me and Freya want to catch-up with him anyway. I'll be back in a few hours." Lance gives her an awkward thumbs up and covers Merlin's body with a sheet and then just starts... setting camp up, desperately trying to ignore everyone's confusion and/or crying.

Merlin eventually wakes up, cue immortal/magic reveal.

WOOHOO!!

1, 5, 11 and 21 for tataru for the ffxiv asks?

Favorite race?

lizards BUT. god. they're such a blizzard race. i could spend years talking about the shitty sexual dimorphism. my kingdom for au ra who are just as tall and gangly and awkward when they're female.

like i love my daughter but. imagine if squex weren't cowards. imagine.

i have mixed feelings about their lore like. they have this strong scent of 'writer's pet' about them (especially the xaela) in light of the fact that ishikawa was responsible for the steppe arc in sb, and all the Heavy Foreshadowing that goes on there. and i am real fuckin tired of the writing making smug jokes about savages who can't read lol (yes this is a war callout post). but.

Favorite character(s)?

fray my beloved. 💜 other than the obvious - ell toh (sp? the dragon who wants to learn crafting). feo ul. an lad. tyr beq.riqi-tio (the kid in the crystarium who wants to be a chemist). lilja sjaris.

The trial/dungeon that you will never do again unless forced to do so?

castrum meridianum/the praetorium/porta decumana. i have spent entirely too much of my life listening to gaius baelsar bleat on about how garleans would never do cringe things like have weak rulers and summon primals. i didn't even get to rub it in his face when, you know.

ruby ex. tbh i don't care for any version of nael van cutscene but i had to do ruby ex 100 times for the mount, bc rng just would not give it to me, and the extra totem for the STUPID fucking triple triad card and i am full of hate and loathing for that fight

How do you feel about Tataru’s voice in Heavensward and onward?

honestly, i prefer her new va. but from what i understand, the arr vas weren't given great voice direction/coaching, which is one of the reasons the voice acting in arr is... Like That, so i don't put that all on the actress. like, arr tataru had a very high pitched, almost whiny voice, but a lot of the female characters did (minfillia's voice also grates on my last nerve) which leads me to wonder if it was poor direction as much as anything else

thank you for the ask :D
