Support me on Patreon / Adoptable Patreon / Ko-Fi / Store / Commission me! / Adoptables / YCHs Made for Dragon Cave, for the as-of-this-post current Halloween events. I initially made it too large and didn't realize until partway through shading, which was really painful to fix. I'm not totally sure how I feel about the Esteem frame, but at that scale and with the silhouette limitations i'm not sure i could have done better?

some older art of some of my OCs :D Crystal is an Iceborn, and she has a genetic anomaly called “Shimmer-Wing”, giving her feathers a pink tint. 

Myst is a Thunderborn, a hybrid of an Iceborn and a Lightningborn (named for Thunder Snow). He’s blind, and thanks to the combined empathic abilities of his parent species, is somewhat prophetic. He can’t see into the future, but he does get senses of whats about to happen.

And finally, Ember. He’s a Fireborn, and crown prince of his tribe, hence the fancy dangling crown. 

These guys are basically my children, and I am working on a story about them, it’s just going pretty slow. Would you be interested in reading their tales?

Another thing that's... kinda odd about the English translation is in the DRK quests, Myste says "A reckoning will not be postponed indefinitely", which is a big line in basically a secret route of the browser game Fallen London. and yeah, it is a cool line and neat to hear it in FF14... it also doesn't really work for Myste? In it's original context, it's about the remains of a dead demi-god-like being, which was cast into a well, seeking a reckoning and leading the player down a route which will irreversibly destroy their character in pursuit of dark secrets.

Which is not what the Myste sections of DRK were about at all, lol.

oh I could rant for hours about dark knight translations. that questline is actually why I first went to scope out the german script, because I heard drk wildly differs between english and japanese and that german generally stays closer to japanese than english does. I translated some of the fray parts here actually, though you'll note I'm a lot more forgiving of the english script in that one because i hadn't reached sidurgu's parts yet löl

german fray and myste are just completely different characters from english. german myste is upbeat and energetic. he loves people who help others and feels a strong urge to help them in turn. he spawned from the dark knight crystal in response to the loneliness of countless dark knights stored within it so he could console them and be their friend, he's basically the will of the soul crystal itself. he tries to alleviate that loneliness by facilitating reunions with lost loved ones but grows frustrated that this only leads to more partings, so he tries to expand his powers to maintain his illusions forever, because more than anything he just doesn't want to leave his dear friends the dark knights alone. he represents the childish wish at the core of every dark knight for a world where nobody has to lose anyone again.

in the part of the quests where you take myste to the sea of clouds there's this bit where in english he talks about his guilt complex and lets slip that this is also your guilt. in german he tells you that he was always with these people who fight hard for others, watching from the sides, until one day he heard a cry of loneliness and since then he's been trying his best to help people too. that's the moment that for me really hammered it in that these languages fundamentally disagree on what it even means to be a dark knight.

in english myste is desperate to atone for everything he's ever done and fray is your self preservation instinct who is kinda mad that you let it get this far, but they have to forgive him because you're all you have as you walk this lonely and bloody path that you have to believe is right. in german myste is your ideal, the desire to comfort those who have no-one else, crying that maybe it's better to forget altogether if partings can't be avoided and fray is your human heart who agrees that parting will always hurt but that is exactly where you find the strength to continue the fight, because it is worthwhile even if it never ends, and the path may be lonely but you will never walk it alone when there are people who came before you and who will come after you who all share this same dream of a kinder world. of course you won't have to leave us, you're our ideal, you're what we do it all for, as long as we remain dark knights you'll be with us. this all flows very naturally into drk-as-shadowbringers-class and ardbert's deal too but since I haven't reached shb in german yet I don't want to say anything extensive about it yet

i still think english drk was cooking with even your repressed feelings being repressed + the part of yourself that wants to protect itself obviously trying to protect itself and thus not wanting to show vulnerability so en fray postures as the stronger one who will protect you instead, and that fray writing in the journal (and only being able to be honest in a place where you're unlikely to look unless you don't know where to go) is incredibly clever. but in the context of how english treats sidurgu and just the way they handle the entire rest of the game really i also don't think that they were intentionally going for this kind of subtlety, it feels to me more like they just thought sincerity is cringe like usual and decided to make everyone cool and edgy (and thus needlessly mean to each other) instead.

and yeah english fucking loves to just yoink lines from other media whether it's appropriate or not. they turned zenos' final words to wol into a hamilton reference in english, "my first friend, my enemy" is a hamilton line, he doesn't ever call you his enemy in any other language (in german he calls you his hunter though which yes is incredibly horny of him). I'll admit I'm not in a good position to judge whatever epic references the german script makes because I'm unfamiliar with german language popular media so I won't spot them unless someone else points them out but I do know that when german fray quotes fight club it just enhances their characterisation as trying to sound cool and intimidating but failing because they're really kind of lame and awkward and can't hide how stoked they are to hang out with you.

[headcanons-n-shit]

Aight I'll toss myself in for self indulgence:

How about some of the boys's reactions to a mc who throws their arms around them with a hug of relief?

(some spoilers for shadowbringers, DRK70 and RDM 60 (i think))

Thancred

certainly isn't expecting it. He's panting, exhausted, gunblade slipping from his grip, barely keeping himself propped up for Minfilia's sake, in his least favorite place in the two worlds he's had the displeasure of existing on. To say you take him by surprise is an understatement-- you take him down with you into the glittering wildflowers. It takes him a minute to remember how his arms work before he carefully, carefully returns your hug. And if you're both shaking and crying the entire time, well... Alphinaud and Alisae wont tell.

The pixies might though.

Urianger

barely has an easier time of it than Thancred, but that's only because he is, despite being worn thin, vaguely rested. He still rocks back onto his heels when you interrupt his monologue to throw your arms around him. His arms come around you immediately to steady you, and then tighten, and tighten, as he steadies himself. On one hand, this breakdown was three years in the making.

On the other hand, you now know how to shut him up.

G'raha

is crying. he's crying, okay?! it's been a really long, really challenging hundred years for him. He got shot. Twice. This body has been sleeping in the Crystal Tower for at least a couple of months. And when it finally dawns on you that this is him, him, Student of Baldesion and Scion of the Seventh Dawn, Exarch and Keeper of the Crystal Tower, and you practically tackled him back into the crystal throne that cradled him, well. He needs this as much as you do.

Estinien

Careful, spikey boy is spikey. You're definitely going to have a red mark on your forehead where you bonked against his armor. Gae Bolg clatters onto the ground as his arms come up automatically to steady you, and then his armet as he tosses it aside so that he can lean down to rest his forehead against yours. The last time he saw you, he snatched you out from beneath a falling blade. And the world is still going to shit around you, and it's certainly only going to get worse from here, but right in this moment you're alive in his arms and he can breathe.

Aymeric

should let you go. Should encourage you back into your bed, should tuck the blanket back up around your shoulders and kiss your forehead and tell you to get some more rest. But, fuck, you almost died right in front of him. Here, in this private room, he can surely be allowed this one small indulgence: you, hanging half off the bed, held up almost entirely by his arms as he buries his face in your neck.

Haurchefant

makes a little 'umph' sound as you practically tackle him back into his bed. He's an injured man, aren't you supposed to be a little more delicate with him?! His half-hearted complaints fall on deaf ears, though, especially when he feels your tears against his chest. He wraps his one arm-- just the one, his other side swathed in bandages-- around your shoulders and tugs you a little more securely against him. You've sacrificed so much, had so much taken from you, and when the dawn breaks you will no doubt go out to chop off more of yourself in the name of this war, but right now he needs you to know that you still have him.

Sidurgu

is the one who sweeps you off your feet. You can hear his heartbeat fluttering in his chest, you have got to stop doing this to him. Myste called the shades of the Knights Heavensward against you, and all he could think of was Fray, the fresh snow the clanking of Temple Knight armor and--

There's a lot of berating and ugly crying as he shamelessly clings to you. Even moreso when Rielle comes over to wedge herself between the two of you. He. Can't lose you, okay? Not like that. Not again.

BONUS

X'rhun

gets to breathe out one long sigh of relief before the impact. The two of you tumble down into the dirt, and he gets to make one small noise of complaint when your weight comes down on his wound before the realization hits him even heavier. It's over. It's over. Lambard is dead. He won't hurt anyone else ever again. The souls of the dead have been avenged and the legacy of the Mages Red yet lives and he just

laughs. Against your shoulder. And if his voice is wet and choked with tears, well. So is yours.

so this got wildly out of hand.

seamqueen is pretty good actually (or, how i learned to stop worrying and multiship the cat) (or, the seam yuri at least one post has been asking for) (or, everything i touch turns to character study.)

for starters, we know that queen knew seam (and the rest of card kingdom) in the past. as pictured above, seam mentions that they’re surprised to see her “again” at the end of chapter 2, and jevil and spades king both talk about her with some level of familiarity.

i generally agree with the premise that her object form – the laptop – was being used in the abandoned classroom before it got abandoned. all of the used classrooms we see have computers of some kind in them.

on the “light world” level of reality, the lightners took her laptop and continued to use it in the librarby after abandoning the classroom. on the “dark world” level of reality, the lightners abandoned the card kingdom citizens and took queen to the cyber world, continuing to use her.

this is a huge part of queen’s characterization to me, as well. she is quite heavily used and prized by the lightners – a fancy laptop that can do it all. in queen’s mind, the lightners need her, and that means they’ll never leave her behind. it’s hardly a glimmer in her eye to think that she couldn’t make them happy forever – that they’d actually abandon her like they did the card kingdom citizens. being queen, she attributes this to being very, very powerful and having the lightners under her control instead. they need her to be happy, right? but we, the audience, know she doesn’t have the whole story. (and like spades before her, she acts under the will of a very powerful lightner in her supposed quest – the knight. that’s a part of how she and spades can oppose our heroes at all – though their fates as video game bosses in a broader, more meta sense still guarantee their losses.) she doesn’t know the true extent of her powerlessness like spamton and jevil do – and she doesn’t know that, like everyone else, there’ll be a day when she’s not useful anymore. being happy in her role isn’t really much of a choice when that role, in and of itself, isn’t something she can choose.

on seam’s end, they’ve grown tired of the whole thing. they know there’s nothing for them in the light or the dark – sure, a lightner could come patch them up, but they’d have no choice in the matter and they’d still fall out of use at the end besides. the cycle of violence (the carousel of violence, if you will) – the cycle of use and disuse, of being owned and abandoned, is something they’ve grown quite aware of and quite nihilistic about. they’ve reached the point where instead of being angry, like spades, or desperate, like spamton, they’re just totally like

they also seem to know at least a little about alternate save files, judging by their dialogue regarding the shadow crystals. but again, they’ve got a totally nihilistic attitude towards that, too. they’re pretty content to taunt the party about the end of the world and the horrific futility of their lives in it with a smile on their face.

there are hints towards just how far their precognition goes; they know things about how spamton found his crystal in the neo body, that it’s powered by mettaton’s Lightner Hope™, they know that the world will end (and it did, bye-bye fountain), they talk about the events of chapter 3 in usual cryptic fashion. queen, meanwhile, knows very little of the Big Truth of the world – she knows she’s Computer (darkner type) just like the cards are Cards (darkner type) but not Literally A Computer On A Higher Layer Of Reality, she has no inkling of the knight’s true motivations, she hasn’t thought too hard about just how powerless being a darkner really makes her. and she certainly doesn’t have precognitive abilities. i do think she knows a little about neo just because i like to think she and swatch are close, but the extent of it (and what swatchton were getting up to about it) is also a mystery to her. she’s got other stuff on her mind!

and so you get this really interesting set of characters that you could put together in a lot of interesting ways. the card kingdom was abandoned long before spades came into power (as the knight was responsible for putting him in such a position, not the act of abandonment itself, and i think there were tensions running high while all four kings were ruling,) so queen could’ve left as early as before anything had fallen apart at all (which is what i think happened, given). what was queen and seam’s old friendship like? were they close? how close? i love a good pair of old friends. you could establish them reconnecting after the events of chapter 2. in the snowgrave route, does queen look to them alongside swatch for comfort? only them? how does their nihilism come into play there? and what of the normal route?

i really like the idea that seam knows of snowgrave even in a normal route. the idea of their disaffectedness and their penchant for “games” contributing to a sort of cheerful numbness to the whole thing is really interesting. and with queen in the picture, they know all of these things will happen to her and her people – but they don’t see a point in telling, either. why would it matter? this’ll all end the same either way. the difference won’t matter for her. just don’t worry about it.

My heart is hurting for Colorado Springs and the LGBTQIA community. My community. Our community.

The tragic events of Saturday, November 19th left a hole in our hearts. It took away a safe space that many in the Colorado Springs LGBTQIA community called home.

This club was so close to my home. I had driven by this place a number of times. I had even pulled up the website days prior to see what events they held during the week, excited to see karaoke, trivia, and even weekend drag show!

My heart hurts for what happened, and I want to show my support in any way that I can. Whether I only sell $20 in patterns or $200. Every penny counts.

Link below is for the GoFundMe organized by Greg Resha (Kyree Myst), a former Club Q employee. Funds will go toward the medical and funeral expenses of the victims and their families.

The other links are for other Cub Q GoFundMe fundraisers. There are several more if you search "Colorado Springs Club Q"

You can show your support with likes and shares! Or consider donating if you can, or perhaps get a cross stitch pattern so that you can stitch in the name of love, and justice. Sailor Moon may not stitch for love and justice, but she sure as hell would fight for it.

wip whenever

tagged by @redwayfarers and I do actually have a bit more to share now! it’s another excerpt from my stormblood-era sidalia wip (spoilers for the DRK 70 quest) that still has me spiraling as I chip away at it. not tagging anyone else this time, but if anyone has any creative work to share, I def want to see it c:

Sidurgu faces away from her, his attention too preoccupied with the threat ahead of him in the form of an anguished elezen boy and magic born of stolen aether. His armored body shields Rielle, hunched over the girl’s limp form sprawled beneath him, and by the way that he leans on one knee and shakes with each heaving breath, she can’t be certain that he can stand. Fear catches in her throat.

Not them. Please, not them, too.

A hoarse cry escapes her chapped lips as she rolls to push herself off the ground. Rosy hair tumbles around her ears and face with the motion, falling loose from her haphazardly tied bow, and staggering in a pathetic arc to meet Myste’s gaze, she finds it not unlike the boy’s cascading blue hair and wild, bewildered expression before her. As the familiar glow of aether envelops him in preparation of another summon, she grits her teeth and braces for it.

Oh, what a fool she’d been not seeing through the ruse.

Before they had ever picked up a sword, her hands held a grimoire. Hers is the world of egi, simulacra, and trances, aether brought forth by crystals and arcanima, primals felled and their power borrowed at her hands, years spent honing the once thought lost Allagan art. ‘Twas she who the boy had got it from, after all—her aether, her knowledge, and her strength wielded by her own grief made manifest.

And now Sidurgu and Rielle may pay the price.

#director’s commentary but this fic isn’t a novelization but scenes building on their connection between drk questline + msq moments #mostly to showcase their dynamic leading up to getting together and the mindset alia is in ahead of it #because there is. a lot to unpack. for her before she allows herself to give into her feelings #and this section is a larger intro ‘prologue’ that bookends the end as the defining moment when their relationship officially starts #wip tag #tag game #oc: d'alia liveq
