370 pulls later... My first e6 for my best boy.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

2nd half of #ratiorine a la Catherine.

#ratiorine a la Catherine. Gonna do a companion piece in the style of the other cover to go along with this.

Obviously gonna do a companion piece with Ratio disappearing into Aventurine's boob window.

FFXIV #aventurine The Golden Saucer AST weapon really is perfect for him, but wow pain for my hand. Had to miqo'te-fy him for uh.. reasons.

I wanna draw some FFXIV Ratiorine, but figuring out the appropriate jobs is hard. Well, for Ratio. Aventurine is easy (Nocturnal AST). While Sage/Scholar are obviously the most thematically appropriate for Ratio, he doesn't heal. Also, overwriting your husband's shields is grounds for divorce.

Haven't done a proper illustration in years, and yet, Ratiorine gets me to dig out my drawing tablet. Wow. I am so rusty. Yes, those are wedding band 'cause I need these two married NOW.

It's actually insane to me that some people feel compelled to show their whole ass on social media. SHUTTING UP IS FREE!!!!

Oh yeah. I uh. Draw sometimes too I guess.

ratiorine obsession continues... can't believe i initially sketched ratio with his shirt on smdh

The relationship between a healer and their party members... Anyone who's ever healed in an mmo or team-based game will understand. (yes, personality-wise Aventurine is probably the gremlin on a leash, but the suffering of a healer is real, and he deserves to hold Ratio's leash ok)

I am horribly ill, but nothing can stop these little gremlin fingers from tapping out Ratiorine romcom nonsense. Ratio arriving to the family reunion with his new "fiancé" only to be immediately exposed 😔 (Yes. It's loosely based on The Proposal. Yes. It's incredibly silly.)

I'm ready for Dan Heng.

Ratiorine romcom...

Omg what is this new end game mode. My cheeks are getting clapped.

Me: I don't really enjoy Modern AUs Also me: Hm... Figure skater Phainon and hockey player Mydei... 🤔

Me with all the fic ideas fighting for space in my brain.

In retrospect, I should've probably come up with a name instead of just calling this guy SHITHEAD COUNCIL ELDER throughout my outline.
