What better way to help raise funds for a XIV event than by further engaging in the traditional trade of blorbos! Today, we pitch an idea thanks to everyone's good vibes and suggestions: docs.google.com/document/d/1...

I’ve gone to both of GATEway FATE’s events and they were so much fun! If you love FFXIV and want to meet and have fun with other like minded people, please please please come join us at this amazing fan run convention. I would love to see this event continue because it has been a great experience!

2025 was a bit of a rough year and it was difficult most of the time to find the motivation and energy to create cosplay or other arts. I hope 2026 will be a better year for creativity for me. I miss doing creative things. I hope 2026 will be a better year for all of you as well. 🙂

Venat, Hythlodaeus, and Emet-Selch having some dinner together before the Distant Worlds concert!

I’m going to FanFest!!! My first time going!! 😃

Merch and stickers I got at GATEway FATE this year. Sooooo many stickers! I think I got double the amount of stickers than what I got last year lol And I need to make sure to bring double the amount of my stickers for next time. 😅

GATEway FATE was soooo much fun again this year! I had a great time meeting new people, trading WoL stickers, and participating in the amazing events! Thank you for a great time @gatewayfate.bsky.social!

Fun day out at the St. Louis zoo and the Gateway Arch before GATEway FATE tomorrow!

I will also have stickers for the sticker trade at GATEway FATE. I will have my solo WoL sticker from last year and this year I made a new one with my WoL ship!

I’m heading over to St. Louis for GATEway FATE this weekend! My cosplay plans are Venat on Saturday and my WoL on Sunday. Had an amazing time at this con last year so super excited to be going again!

Really proud of the decorating I did on this Ita Bag. It’s themed around Zayne from Love and Deepspace. Yes, I am a total Zayne girlie! ❄️❤️

At 2D Con this weekend! I won’t be wearing any cosplay, just will be in some casual geeky themed clothes. Feel free to say hi if any one of you are also here!

Made some minor changes to the design of my Goldeen dress. Made a dress to go under the layered skirt instead of just wearing the shorts under it. I honestly love this so much better!

Some pics of my Patrick Star cosplay at CONvergencene! Been getting a lot of love from people with this cosplay which I really appreciate! So thank you to all who said such nice things to me! #CVG2025

I will be at CONvergence this weekend! Made a few changes to some of my original cosplay plans due to time and wanting to be a bit more comfortable with the heat we have had recently lol. But very excited and ready to have some fun! Especially with some of my silly meme cosplays. 😂 #CVG2025

If you see this, post a sword. How about instead of one, I give you six! ⚔️⚔️⚔️ Cosplay: Date Masamune from Sengoku Basara Photo by Stray Things Photography

Distant Worlds was amazing! Beautifully performed music that brought me to tears many times! Worth the trip to Chicago!

In Chicago for the Final Fantasy Distant Worlds concert! So excited! Just had to bring along Meteor, Ardbert, and my lopporit buddy from FFXIV to enjoy the show with lol #finalfantasy #distantworlds

I tried doing a few pictures in the water at the Kalahari resort water park with Goldeen while at Colossal Con North! #pokemon #pokemongijinka #cosplay

Been meaning to post some of the pictures I got of my Goldeen cosplay from Colossal Con North. Well better late than never. 😅 I really loved the photo backdrops they had at the con and was even happier there was an ocean themed one perfect for some Goldeen pics! #pokemon #pokemongijinka #cosplay

Pokémon gijinka today at Colossal Con North! Goldeen and Sablelye!

Cosplaying my Warrior of Light in my favorite beach glam for her! Colossal Con North day 1! #ffxiv #finalfantasyxiv #cosplay

I have designed and made a Pokemon gijinka cosplay for the first time! It has been a lot of fun coming up with the design and then creating it! This design is based off of Goldeen. I will be wearing this at Colossal Con North this weekend! #pokemon #cosplay #pokemongijinka #goldeen
