#yea this turned out... long

All of this, so much, and sometimes I really feel like the writers didn't know what to do with their own world- and character building.
I mean everyone knows that any character apart from Clive (and I love Clive dearly, don't get me wrong) doesn't get the attention they deserve (oh Jill, you poor thing). This is a rare game where I'd actually say it needed to be longer. Or they could have put less attention on basic side quests, but I digress. (this is getting long, so rest under the cut:)
Joshua is so inextricably linked to Clive, that it really is a shame we did not get to learn more of him. Not of his history mind, though I'd really like to know why he didn't show himself to Clive for about 8 years after the Undying told him he was alive and probably Ifrit. I am also upset that we only learn that the poor boy spent 5 years in a coma from a book sold separately from the game. But what we really don't know, is his state of mind. And as second most important character in the game, this is inexcusable, to be honest.
As you so rightly pointed out, him choosing the name Margrace carries vast significance and gives us a big of insight into how he feels about his lost duchy and throne. But we don't get to see him mourn, we don't get even a mention of the former future archduke's feelings about Rosaria. We see Clive mourning his homeland and helping the people there, Sir Wade foremost among them, which makes Joshua's silence feel almost cold to the player. Does he not care about his people?
Of course, Joshua sees the bigger picture. He knows that to bring peace to all of Valisthea, he needs to look at the bigger picture and find out more about Ultima. But it still is a cold move to make without even an acknowledgment of the crimes being committed in Rosaria. This lends credit to the headcanons of Joshua being almost frighteningly similar to his mother, but this is also not explored in any way.
Clive has this scene with Anabella, wherein he, selflessly, because Clive at his core is selfless, accuses her of not doing enough for Joshua, of putting immense pressure on him at a very young age. "Every waking moment of his was spent trying to live up to the burden that you and the duchy foisted on him", to loosely quote. Do we see that? In the tutorial, or later scenes? Barely. And a character who has been put under immense pressure, who is pretty much only ever seen as a symbol, not for who he really is, would be fascinating to explore here.
I mean, Joshua spent years recuperating from a horrible, traumatic event, raised by a cult who worship his Eikon, but not really him (at least that's my impression from them calling him "Keeper of the Flame of the Phoenix"). He sends them on dangerous missions, often resulting in deaths among the Undying. And I know he tried to talk them out of it, but it's Clive who gets to be outraged, it's Clive who gets to change their minds, not Joshua. Imagine we got to see a Joshua who struggles under the weight of his tasks. Imagine a Joshua who gets to be seen for who he is at the Hideaway and thrives for the first time. Imagine a Joshua who finally breaks down and cries to his brother about the responsibility he bears.
But no, we see none of that. We see Joshua, hard focused on his tasks at all times, throwing himself into battle and sacrificing himself easily. And yes, that is also not a sign of a healthy mind. But he is so nondescript, I mean, even as he lays dying in Clive's arms he only thinks of cheering his brother up and giving him strength and we don't get to explore the parallels of both his AND Clive's lack of self-worth?
One last thing before I end this for now, because I fear this has turned out very all over the place, but for a man who saw his father decapitated in front of him, which drove him to lose control of the Phoenix and wreak havoc on his own people, Joshua is oddly unaffected by his mother killing herself in front of him. But I suppose giving him a moment to really take that in would have been too much to ask.
PS: your mention of Dion being Crown Prince being strange got me thinking, and my theory is, that Bahamut isn't kept in one family line as strictly as Phoenix is, so he can pop up all over Sanbreque. Sylvestre used Dion's Awakening to get himself the throne and then of course, after claiming it in Bahamut's name, had to name Dion Crown Prince to keep up appearances. I doubt he ever intended to give Dion the throne, as Dion is a bastard and clearly not of one mind with his father a lot of the time. That's why Sylvestre makes Olivier emperor so early.
Thinking about Margrace as Joshua's name post-Phoenix Gate.
Mar-grace.
In FFXVI the Undying choose their own names (Cyril explains this in-game), and many of them have names drawn from Final Fantasy XII, including their leader 'Margrace' himself, from Al-Cid Margrace. The page for Al-Cid notes that Margrace is likely an alternate form of the title 'margrave', an old title for military commanders on the border.
That aside. This is the name chosen (by the boy himself?) for the boy who should have rightfully been known henceforth as 'Your Grace', 'His Grace'.
Grace (style of address), from the Oxford English Dictionary:
With a possessive adjective: a title of respect, esp. for a person of royal or noble rank. Frequently (in 'your Grace') as a form of address. Now archaic or historical. Formerly (in England until the reign of Henry VIII and in Scotland until 1707) used for a monarch or prince; now replaced by Majesty or Highness. Even so, "Majesty" for the sovereign of England was not used exclusively; it arbitrarily alternated with both "Highness" and "Grace", even in official documents, until "Majesty" finally became the official style to the exclusion of others (source).
Grace (other meanings):
1. Divine favour, benevolence, or providence bringing about worldly benefit or advantage. 2. A person's lot, destiny, or fate; luck, fortune. 3. The quality of being pleasing; attractiveness, charm; esp. (in later use) refined elegance of manner, expression, form, or movement, esp. regarded as natural or effortless; gracefulness.
Whatever the etymology of margrave, the name Margrace in-game is probably meant to call to mind the meaning of 'mar' as in damaged, spoiled, ruined. All the grace that ever belonged to his family, his home, his birthrightâmarred, of course.
Mar+Grace, the last heir of the oldest unbroken ruling dynasty in the Twins at the time of the opening events of the game**.
The living ghost, carrying the desecrated corpse of his legacy in his new name. Introducing himself by his humiliation: "Hello, I am Margrace", "Hello, I am the ruined dignity of my house." "Call me Margrace", "Call me the wreckage of one fallen from divine favour." "My name is Margrace", "My name is blemished fortunes and diminished nobility".
It's appropriately brutal and dramatic for such a character, especially since the game is frustratingly silent on how Joshua personally feels about the loss of his duchy which is a rant for next time.
**Footnotes:
In the Year 860 (Prologue year/Phoenix Gate), Rosaria is about 260 years old (est. Y600). Older, if you count from the time of the Rose Alliance (est. Y550). The Rosfields have been on the Rosarian throne since the inception of the duchy in Y600, and prior to that House Rosfield was already known to be the chief of/the preeminent house of the Seven High Houses that united to found the duchy. House Rosfield has held ruling power for 260-310 years at a minimum.
For reference, England's longest-reigning dynasty was the Plantagenets, who held on for 300+ years. Rosfields aren't doing half bad!
Veldemarke would have been older had it not been overthrown by Barnabas; therefore Waloed is the youngest nation state at the time of the prologue (only 17 years old). Also we do not know much about the governance of Veldemarke, although as a 'kingdom' it was likely some type of monarchy.
Sanbreque was formed 100 years after Rosaria, and at any rate is not actually a hereditary monarchy. The Holy Emperor is voted into office by his fellow Cardinals, likely the five who form the Council of Elders. We are also explicitly told that Sylvestre 'won his throne' in 865; there is no indication either way that his predecessor emperor was a Lesage. The wording suggests the throne is not Sylvestre's by lineage or birthright. How this is supposed to relate to the concept of Sanbreque having a 'crown prince' (Dion) is unclear and contradictory, since an emperor by election should probably not have the authority to unilaterally decide on the succession of the throne, and his issueâlegitimate or noâshould not automatically be in the line of succession.
Dhalmekia is a republic with elected officials.
The Iron Kingdom apparently has a royal family, but nothing else is known apart from it being impotent and sidelined by their state religion.
The Northern Tribes likely do have hereditary rule, and Jill is referred to as a princess, but once again little is known.
Ergoâand I am ceaseless in this propagandaâClive and Joshua are really, properly posh! Absolutely baffling that Anabella would allow anyone to put down the pedigree of her sons when they are so blue-blooded precisely because she is! For someone with such entrenched ideas of blood purity she should not stand for it, no matter how she feels about her eldest.
#yea this turned out... long#but Joshua is my blorbo#and I will forever be salty that we didn't get to learn more about him#and others for that matter!!!#so sad that the DLC were completely removed from the existing characters#apart from Clive of course#we could have gotten character development#and everyone was speculating that that's what the dlc would be#and i am so disappointed#where's my joshua dlc square#ffxvi#joshua rosfield

random wip wednesday thing! sonic and vanilla having a deep conversation post frontiers edition
âI justâŠâ Sonic stared down at his hands helplessly before he sighed, âI just thought that maybe Iâve been in his life long enough toâŠI donât know, reverse any damage they may have caused. I mean, he barely remembers anything about his life before he met me soâŠâ
Vanilla hummed as she considered the hedgehog in front of her and his words, âWell, I donât know much about this particular subject, but I do know how important it is for young children to receive parental affection and care. It's a very formative time for them and that neglect can have devastating effects on the child later on in life.â
She paused for a brief moment before continuing, âWhen I was pregnant with Cream, I remember speaking to a few mothers to get some insight and listen to otherâs experiences. One of their stories always stuck out to me.â Something about her gaze turned sad, her grip on her mug tightening, âOne of the ladies told me about how she didnât receive much affection when she was younger and how she was using her experience with that as a motivator to be the best mom she possibly could. I remember her mentioning that it almost felt like a piece of her was missing and she was angry for a long time.â
Sonic eyes widened as she went on, âI wouldnât be surprised if the absence of his parents is starting to weigh on Tails. And, while youâve been a wonderful guardian for him, I donât think thereâs much that can truly fill in the gap that they left behind.â
Vanillaâs words hung like a weight over Sonic that threatened to fall and break him into a million pieces any second. Had Tails really been struggling with something like that? The kit never told him about anything of the sort and never seemed to even think about his parents. Hell, most days Sonic forgot that Tails hadnât always been with him. That his last name didnât just come from nowhere and there are people out there who are biologically related to the kit.
Heâd forget that there was a time his little brother wasnât in his life.
That no one was, really.
Something else suddenly started to enter his mind, something that forced its way in and took over like a parasite. Any thoughts about his little brother were buried in an instant and Sonic felt himself tense. One single question bounced around his skull, trying to escape its confines and make itself known to the rabbit sitting across from him.
If thatâs how that lady and Tails felt, thenâŠ
âWhy donât I feel like that?â
#idk when iâll have this done but i like how this section turned out so yea#making sonic accidentally say what heâs feeling out kid#i like the idea of vanilla being someone sonic sometimes goes to for advice#anyway that parental abandonment has to catch up to tails at some point. he canât just evade the effects of it forever#not on my watch at least#that shit can fuck someone up for a long time#sonic the hedgehog#vanilla the rabbit#wip#wip wednesday#confession i completely forgot how to spell wednesday right when i started making this post and panicked for like a minute

41 ghost/living person au ava x beatrice
[AO3 Link]
...
Beatrice waking up is one of the most beautiful things Avaâs ever seen in her life.Â
Sheâs always thought thisâprivately at first, in an attempt to not bother her with the levels of Avaâs adoration and then overtly, later, when she learned that Beatrice wouldnât get it either wayâand itâs never been more clear to her before now. As a rule, Beatrice is almost never relaxed, but she canât help it when she sleeps.Â
Ava lets herself stare without fear. Beatrice has always had a way of drawing her attentionâlook at me, Ava had thought even in those early days, living anew and burning with a desire to know and to be known, look at meâand hereâs the thing: Beatrice has always been a creature of habit (pun totally intended). She wakes up at six in the morning every day, no matter what; her alarm blares, but Avaâd bet that even if it didnât go off sheâd still get up right on time anyway. Her alarm blares, she sits up. Rubs her eyes once, twice, and then swings herself out of bed.Â
Just like that.Â
She opens one of the curtains just a sliver and allows the rising sun to shine inside the small room, turning the room from a dim gray to something far nicer, tinging the pillows a soft orange that, in turn, flickers across Beatriceâs hair, caressing her in such a way that makes Avaâs fingers itch, eager to touch.Â
Her highlights are growing out, have nearly been swallowed by natural dark locks, but it hadn't been the blonde that made Ava fall for her (though it hadnât hurt). Sheâs stunning even now, especially nowâwill always be, probably.Â
Beatrice makes sunlight look damn-near dreary, and Avaâs mouth dries as she watches.Â
âYouâre so pretty, Bea,â she croaks, unable to keep it all inside. Now thereâs no reason to.Â
âYou try to keep yourself hidden from the entire world,â Ava goes on, rocking back on the bed. She watches as Beatrice putters silently around the room, blinking the sleep from her eyes. âAnd you did, reallyâyou did such a good job of that. But youâre so gorgeous, like, holy fuck. Iâve never seen eyes like yours. You should wear your hair down more often, but your bun looks good, too. Bea, do you want me to talk about your freckles again?â
Beatrice doesnât respond to her, of course. She never does.Â
Not that Ava can blame her, really.Â
(Avaâd found out pretty quickly that Beatrice couldnât see her. Couldnât hear her, feel her. Couldnât perceive her in any way.
No one could.Â
She got over it pretty quicklyâif you count having a couple panic attacks getting over itâand sheâs mostly okay now. By the time sheâd appeared here, in the middle of Beatriceâs bedroom as she was sleeping, itâd already been four days since she went through the Ark. She doesnât know why sheâs like this, doesnât know if sheâd ever ended up meeting Reya; she doesnât even have any memory of being healed, though she must have been. Unless sheâs dead, and this is, like, some weird sort of limbo.Â
But sheâs died before, and it wasnât like this.)Â
All in all, she thinks, delighting in the casual ripple of shoulder muscles from beneath Beatriceâs shirt, this is a way better deal than last time.Â
She doesnât watch Beatrice change, of course. She has some shame. But she takes what she can get; itâs the little things, the way Beatrice walks around in the (supposed) privacy of her own room with a short-sleeved shirt on. Sheâll always pull on an extra layer before she leaves, Avaâs learned, but the flex of her biceps even for this limited time is nothing short of holy.Â
Once Beatrice is properly dressed, her bun fixedâthough it hadnât been mussed in the first placeâher boots tightly laced, she heads out of her room, into the long hallways of Catâs Cradle.
Ava smiles, bounces on her feet, and follows her out the door.Â
(As far as Ava knows, the Haloâs very much fine and still in her back. She can feel it at times, though it never goes off quite as powerfully as she remembers. She can still phaseâthough thereâs really no point to it anymoreâshe can still fly, can still healïżœïżœwhich was an absolute bitch to test, by the wayâand maybe this all points to her not being dead, but in the end, it doesnât really matter.)
Because sheâs a creature of habit (it doesnât get any less funny), Beatrice stops by the dining hall first. Breakfast is essential, sheâd said in Switzerland, and Avaâs never one to turn down any food. Sheâd always enjoy those lazy morningsâthough lazy is never something she could call Beatriceâand the early meals with her.Â
Itâd be nice to eat again. She misses food more than she misses a lot of things. Wellâthatâs not really true. She misses a lot of things, really; food, the need to sleep, talking with Camila, the way Beatrice would touch her shoulder when she was being just the slightest bit annoying.Â
âI love you,â she says while Beatrice eats, because itâs all she can do. âI miss you. Thank you for being here. Iâm sorry for stalking you, heh, but I feel like youâd be okay with it. I love you.â
I love you. I love you. I love you.Â
After breakfast, Beatrice heads out to the training grounds. She doesnât have all that much to do in Catâs Cradle nowadays, and Avaâs seen her duties lessen and lessen over the days, from performing most of the new recruitsâ training to now just overseeing it. She thinks, sometimes, that Beatrice will snap one day and just leave this all behind. She kind of hopes she will.Â
Itâs weirdâcomplicated, really. She wants Beatrice to live so badly, to discover who she is without the towering, suffocating walls of the OCS boxing her in. Thatâs always what Avaâs wanted for her.Â
But she desperately doesnât want Beatrice to be alone.Â
At least sheâs not alone here, is the thing. Ava would follow her anywhere, but Beatrice wouldnât know it. At least here she still has a fewâhas Camila, has Mother Superion, has Dora, even, whoâs not very close but whoâs here.Â
(And Avaâs seen her grieve, too; those are always the worst nights. Beatrice grieves her so plainly that sometimes Ava wishes sheâd just be forgotten entirely, if only to spare her the pain.
She never wishes that for very long. Sheâs selfish like that.)
âBea?â
After trainingâduring which Beatrice stood and watched the recruits and Ava sat and watched herâCamila finds her in the hallway, a sad smile already forming on her face.Â
âCamila,â Beatrice says. She always sounds so tired when she speaks, now, and Avaâs heart clenches in her chest. I love you, she thinks, desperate for Beatrice to hear. âDid you need anything?â
âNo, itâs not that.â Camila looks a bit skittish. âI just wanted to give you something.â She holds something outâsomething that Ava canât seeâand Beatrice inhales steadily. Too steadily. Ava wonders if Camila notices or not. âIt took a little while to shape it, but itâs yours.â
Ava comes closer, unable to bite back the curiosity. She doesnât like being too close, now, doesnât like the way her skin slides through everyone elseâs without even trying, but she canât help it. Sometimes thereâs a pull she just canât fight. Beatrice is still staring at whatever it is, doing her keep-calm breaths.Â
Ah. Ava understands the moment she spots the thing in Camilaâs hand. A piece of Diviniumânearly black, with how dull it isâattached to a simple cord and clasp. A necklace.Â
âFor you,â Camila says finally, placing the stone in Beatriceâs hand. âSo that youâll know.âÂ
Beatrice doesnât say a word when she takes it from her, cradling the piece of Divinium between her fingers as if itâs liable to bite her. She doesnât react, really, just closes her fist around it and meets Camilaâs eyes with a look that Ava canât see from her angle.Â
Whatever it is Camila seems to understand, and without another word spoken, Beatrice turns heads back to her room. Ava follows after her, because what else can she do? âI love you,â she says as they walk. âEven if you donât know it, Iâm here. I love you.âÂ
She hopes Beatrice doesnât cry. Thatâs the worst of it, not being able to comfort her. She doesnât often cry, but that only makes it that much more gut-wrenching when she does.
Beatrice doesnât cry, but she does spend a few minutes sitting and staring down at the necklace. She doesnât say anything aloud, but itâs in the way her hands twitch, how her leg jumps up and down on the bed. Time passes slowly, and Ava watches from the corner.Â
âI love you,â Ava says, chin trembling because she canât not say it, because thereâs not much more for her to do these days than just tell Beatrice how much she means to her in the hopes that one day sheâll understand. There are tears forming in her eyes and she doesnât even care because itâs not like thereâs anyone here to notice it, anyway. âI love you so much. I wish I could talk to you right now. I miss you, but Iâm glad itâs me rather than you. I love you.â
I love you, she says, right as Beatrice slips the necklace over her head.Â
And thatâs when she swears Beatrice looks directly at her. Beatriceâs eyes go dark and desperate, and Ava thinks that she is going to cry, actually, when she realizes that the Divinium hanging high on her chest is no longer dull and dark, that Beatriceâs face is flecked with shining blue. Beatrice stares through her, mouth dropping open.Â
Avaâs heart jumps with the thought of danger. If Beatrice is attacked here, when Ava canât do anythingâ
She spins around, but thereâs nothing there.Â
And thatâs when Ava realizes, half a second before it becomes obvious. Realizes because she knows Beatrice, has known her long before she was cursed to follow her around forever. She turns back around, meets her gazeâlook at me, sheâs always thought, look at meâand stares.Â
Because Beatrice isnât looking at something behind her, or above. Beatrice is looking at her.Â
âAva?â

since we're talking about it, watching the first episode was so funny hearing ciel talking with a higher pitch acting cute i thought "oh, the boy is good at pretending isnt he! ...AH. AHHHHHH"
#foreshadowing so good i had come up with the theory all by myself in my no friend no fandom corner#but then i peeked into the fandom and ppl where so mad about about the theory.. teen me went 'ahah yea. its so bad right?' but when it#was confirmed? when it turned out we were right? OH THE VINDICATION!!#lets be quiet about this too. for the new ppl. but i have to brag. fandom closet is such a good term. ive been in hidding for so long bro

Same venue. Same-ish crowd. Opposing seasons. Contrasting vibes.
#me#sometimes you have a few beers and yr feeling yrself. sometimes you feel too much like yourself and consider leaving early#for all the talk of yearning and intricate rituals let me tell you. a drunk girl sidled in right in front of me and the sense of rage i-#her and esp the guys she was with got kinda rowdy in the pit later on shoving each other also into the crowd whom did NOT want part of that#its a lot of people in a small room and at this point i was already further back and against a wall let me tell you#i think if someone had touched me i might have snapped fr#still had an ok time though once i got over feeling super embarrassed about my self and dared looking other people in the eye lol ah#one thing i do like abt the culture is the genderneutrality of it all... the most long and luscious locks in the room belong to some guy#and i can show up in sport bra and oversized shirt no typa bag no makeup wearin black laceup boots that could be m or f#my gender is uh. dont worry abt it lets just turn off the lights and vibe#got talking w someone tho who said she recognised me frm a diff event & i didnt much like that idea.. im not in the mood to be Perceived at#the venue IS p cool tho... like oo at a forgotten space on the other side of the tracks. by the water. by the skate park. yea#edit HOW could i forget. the rowdiest of drunk guys got either shamed into stepping out or str8 removed fr a lil while im not sure lol#and another guy wantedto crowdsurf but only 2 of his friends came to the stage to get him so he just kinda. crawled on top of them#and they awkwardly took a few steps carrying him round the vacated front. none of the crowd wanted shit to do w them lmao

#noragami#mizuchi#yato#Noragami spoilers#i'm thinking of coming back to this blog#like posting frequently like i used to#not everyday but hopefully at least once a week#life has been so hectic#firstly i think last year i lost commitment for this blog cuz i was hyperfixating on a visual novel series#and that series literally took my attention away from everything i swear l#and then this year happened oh dear lord school is beating me to a pulp every damn week#started at a new school in november & it took me long to make friends#and on top of that most of my classes are ultra boring and the teachers pile on work like crazy#i have to push myself so hard and burn out at the end of every week to get every assignment turned in#only got a month left of school so yea but also nay cuz there's sm left to do#got a damn eoc exam tomorrow and then a physics exam the next day#i have a performance for my asl class which im so not prepared for in a few weeks#and then finals like the week after the performance i think?#oh and my algebra teacher said she's giving us another exam before the final#very fun!! i love being a high schooler XD

Part 2 - Pluvie's casual adventurer outfit, plus a super cute glam meant for someone of a more modest sensibility (you can take the Elezen out of the church but you can't take the church out of the Elezen). Included are what I imagine Pluvie's hands to look like (vis a vis the spaekona's wrist torques and my favorite rings) post-shb through the ew patches.
#ffxiv#cyborg rambles#pluvie tealeaf#pluvie pic queue#so proud of that iridescent dress glamour#it turns out that the bangle arm armor you get from euphrosyne actually overwrites any long sleeves in your body glam#so using them there totally nixes the long sleeves of that dress#which i love and pluvie would absolutely wear in the ishgardian cold but which do ultimately look a little too frumpy (for me :p)#also like i said. obsessed with those torques#gpose#oh yea and bc the android's half-robe looks the same for both blkm and whm she uses the same glam for both roles :3
