@tishinada's recent post with her OC Zas and Merlwyb made me realize I haven't shared any Matheli and Merlwyb content in a while :O

So I'm doing that now! :D

I forgot lights were an option there heh 😅 (and those were taken before I got Anamnesis)

I also have a few from All Saint's Wake event, where my friend Paddito dressed up as Merlwyb... The only problem there is that when we met to gpose, or brains went full "no thoughts, head empty" lol. So we ended up making a few silly gposes next to a spiderweb with lesbian flag colored decos!

"Merl, not in public!"

"On the second thought..."

World hard and cold...tiddy soft and warm...

And finally there's this - a gpose I took for a prompt from discord!

This was entirely custom-posed by me using Anamnesis 😅 I'm still new to all of that, but I'm figuring it out! :D

With help from a friend (thank you @tishinada!) Suvia finished Heavensward's MSQ and is off to post. Yay, no more Holy See! Boo, Poor Estinien with Those Eyes and sadness. I have been intrigued by that moment where Thordan asks the Warrior of Light "WHAT are you?" at the end of the battle. But I didn't catch this with Suvia. For just a moment, when they show the Warrior of Light in the shadows looking terrifying, they illuminate the top part of her face. Which looks ever so much like a white mask. And then that mask fades out to an entirely dark shot of the Warrior of Light's face.

And if you've played through the rest of the MSQ you know what that's about -- but I hadn't realized it showed up quite so early. Hi Azem! Your descendant is killing it. Literally in this case.

Writer's Game: First Sentences

Got tagged by @elveny - thank you! ♥

I am on here so rarely that I barely know who to tag in these things anymore, but I'm gonna try @elfyourmother @dandelionofthanatos @semper-draca @kireon @rinzukodas @tishinada @corevocation-observatory @crimsonsynastry @curiousthimble

And feel free to grab this even if I didn't tag you please ^^

Rules: post the first sentence of your last ten fics. If you haven't written ten fics, share as many first sentences as you have.

This was a fun one, hope you enjoy

1. Original Novel, not yet published

She faintly remembers a time when libraries used to be some of her favorite places to be.

2. a striking change of form and function (EmetWol, XIV)

Sometimes Emet-Selch wonders if he has lived too long.

3. Equinox (EmetWol, XIV)

The sun is getting low over Mor Dhona.

4. Remains (EmetWol AU, XIV)

"You look like death warmed over."

5. Brittle (ZenosWol, XIV)

Rory should have known that Zenos is not a man for empty threats or promises.

6. Rewards (ThancredxUriangerxHythlodaeusxEmet-Selch, XIV)

He knows Thancred better than anybody else in the world.

7. Somnus (HaurcheWol, XIV)

It's still early, no longer the pitch black of the middle of the night, but not yet light enough that people have begun to rise for the day. 

8. A Slice of Paradise (HythEmetWol, XIV)

Morning light floods the room, and rays of sunlight tickle your nose and slowly, gently draw you out of your deep slumber.

9. Small Breaks (EstinienWol, XIV)

Being the Warrior of Light and having her face known throughout the realm sometimes comes with a downside.

10. Soul Surrender - Ouroboros (EmetWol, XIV)

Sometimes, in the depth of night, you lose sight of who you are. 

A couple of commissions in this list, the only way you can get me to give you more variety than just EmetWol, it seems. 😅

@tishinada These are the starfishing locations! Limne 18 is a little different from the other two. If you can see the sort of crumbly space dust stuff, you can fish from there but Limne 18 doesn't have it.

Koko has started a new journey because the person leveling her (me) hates caster classes, I dont know what I was thinking other than I wanted her to be able to blow things up in firey awesomeness. Shes so happy to be a Lancer now, they even put a pink flower over the door for her (and no she is not going to care if you tell her it’s for the holiday, she IS the holiday damnit). 

Also I had to write a little something to show how she decided to do this. Salix was borrowed from @cinlat and it’s also super important that @tishinada hear about the hijinks Koko got up to while Zas wasn’t around. 

Pointy Ideas. Word Count: 983

Koko groaned and slumped in her chair, staring up at the ceiling. When she dreamed about being an adventurer as a child she thought about weidling powerful magic spells and kicking bad guy asses. What she did NOT dream about was spending all her free time reading book after book to learn said magic. Thinking of all the books lining the walls of the Thaumaturge Guild Hall made her shudder in horror. 

Books had never been Koko’s friend. She got distracted easily, lost her spot on the page unless she followed her fingers and sometimes the letters seemed to be all jumbled around. She’d managed to eke her way through the basic schooling her small village had provided, but little of that focused on letters and reading. She had a drive and motivation to do the work but all the reading was making her head spin, and not in a fun way like her favorite mead did. 

Sitting up and pushing the book she had been trying to read away, Koko found her eyes drawn to the lance leaning against the corner of the room. Salix had once been a Lancer but the boy wasn’t cut for it, by his own admission, and now preferred the healing Scholar arts. Seeing him switch jobs, and being so much happier for it, made her wonder…

Could she do that too?

This wasn’t a new feeling. At first she had been so excited to learn the Thaumaturge arts, she could create fireballs! With her hands! It was amazing. Everything she had ever wanted. But now it all felt so complicated and overwhelming. 

Studying as a Thaumaturge had made her hesitant to pick up any other spellcasting jobs and the healing arts didn’t interest her either. But that lance gave her ideas. Pointy ideas. The longer she stared at the lance and thought about it the bigger her grin grew.

Unable to restrain herself any longer she asked across the room and grabbed the lance. It was sized for Salix who obviously was much taller than her. It was heavy, especially at the top where the blade was and she staggered a few steps backward before finding her balance. 

Koko turned the lance a few times, spinning the wood in her fingers. It would take some practice to get used to its side but Koko was sure she could manage. Remembering how she had seen Salix use the lance she decided there was no better time than now to start her new career. 

-------- Several minutes later --------

The jarring sound of break glass made Salix look up from the papers on the  Adloquium spell he had been studying. He wanted to get the healing spell committed to memory as soon as possible. Life in Eorzea was getting more and more dangerous everyday and he wanted to know he could protect his family. 

More glass broke in the main room and he shot to his feet. Koko had been pouring over what she called her “Fire Makin’” books when he had come upstairs to do his own studying. He had learned when he first started pursuing the Scholar arts that they could not study together. Koko was easily distracted and, in turn, would find wants to distract him and soon neither had learned anything. 

But even for Koko breaking things while trying to study was unusual. 

He was at the door in seconds but hesitated before opening it. He had learned the hard way that rushing into a room tended to surprise the small woman and had no desire to dodge fireballs today. Slowly he opened the door, peering through the crack as the main room became visible. 

Koko had a talent for surprising people, she seemed to take great joy in jumping out of small spaces or high up hidey holes to shock people. Salix knew this, had come to expect it, but nothing had prepared him to see her clumsily swinging his lance about. It was almost two feet longer than him, the length customized to match his stature, and for a person who was just about three feet tall it was an almost comical sight. 

Almost because the glass and broken ceramic pieces on the floor were increasing with every swing. 

“Koko what are you doing?”

Koko stopped mid-swing and grinned widely at him. “Magic sucks. I’m gonna stab things!”

Figuring that was all the explanation he was going to get with how excited she was he didn’t question her sudden change in career paths but motioned to the floor. “Maybe you should stab things outside where things are less breakable?”

She tilted her head to the side for a moment and then looked down. Surprise showed plainly on her face. “Did I do that?”

Hoping it was safe to move closer now, Salix stepped into the room. “I think so.”

“Oops,” Koko said, looking at him, then the mess, then longingly at the lance in her hand. “I guess I need to clean it before I can take this outside.”

Salix crouched down and smiled at her. He hadn’t been sure he’d like the energetic Lalafell when they met, she was so chaotic, but she certainly kept life from being boring. “How about I help you clean it up and then show you some of what I learned when that was my lance.”

Koko’s eyes went wide and he barely had any time to prepare himself before she dropped the lance and launched herself at him, knocking him down into the mess on the floor in her haste to hug him. 

“Thank you thank you thank you!” Koko cried as she squeezed him as tightly as she could. 

Salix grimaced, not from the hug because Koko had made sure he was getting used to those, but the feel of glass poking into his backside. He was going to need those healing spells much sooner than he had anticipated.

the bird bonanza

'So today @tishinada and I took our characters through Minstrel: Nidhogg for Wondrous Tails. A lanner whistle dropped. We then went into Minstrel: Thordan. Another whistle dropped. And so we went on. And by the end of about 10 runs through various Heavensward extremes, five whistles had dropped in total. We picked up lanners in Sepiroth (TWICE so we each got one!), Sophia, Thordan, and Nidrogg. I went back through Zurvan alone for S&G a little while ago. And another whistle dropped. Holy hell, it's been Bird Day. Rigel previously had the Ravanna and Bismarck lanners, so now all she's missing is Sophia. @tishinada and I had some really lucky runs with the ARR horsies - I think there was a day we got three or four, including a NIghtmare - but this was unreal.

Shout out to these ladies @tishinada @rainofaugustsith and Lyria for another successful hunt. The Great Hunt this time. Taking down dragon’s with the power of friendship....and brute force. A LOT of brute force.

Anyway, we decided to get out “fisherman’s picture” with our price and the cute little cat who sent us after the man eating dragon.
