Rules of Nature - A Final Fantasy XIV Fic ft. Fordola (🎨: @kuroiitulip.bsky.social) [Fordola rem Lupis] [Fordola x WoL] [Canon Compliant] [Original Characters] [Slow Burn] [Plot Heavy] [Endwalker Spoilers] #FFXIV #fanfiction #Fordola 385,444 Words Available Now! archiveofourown.org/works/38599308…

Was reminiscing with a friend about XIV and the “good old days” of Stormblood. Concluded that logging in to an empty house on a vacant street & an empty friends list of 30+ Days since last login perhaps leaves a more sour taste in my mouth about this expansion than anything the story tried to do.

I hate to poopoo something from frame 1, Gamer™️ style, but in the fighting game renaissance, SE decides to drag out Dissidia’s corpse once again to chase Genshittification trends instead of just making a proper 1v1 fighting game? Hate to see it.

Eiserne's minor Wilds glam update - wow, omega f armor so original!

I like that the new Deep Dungeon gunblade has a holster - I’ve always described such a thing for Fordola! Shame it’s literally attached to the thing and looks a bit silly when held. Hoping the mødders out there see the vision and make it an accessory or something. Penance would look great in it!

Lotta fake-fan reapers out there today. #noticing

What an aggravating fight. Barely scraped by but it’s done.

As a professional allegation dodger given my character proclivities, I will go against my lawyer’s professional advice and say that feet are okay by me. I neither promote nor condemn feet appreciation. Now please put Briar into 2XKO, I’m so serious.

Omega savage is cool but I feel like I never get an opportunity to like…hit it for any meaningful amount of time? Its feet are constantly moving, missiles make you disengage, I dunno even what to do when it’s doing the freak-out bouncing during Pantokrator. I just run out of time. Oh well.

My Wilds Eiserne is cute btw, I think I did an okay job.

Fordola gonna beat this robot's ass AGAIN in another world.

🥵ma'am

Fucked up and let slip to a coworker (similar age) that I wrote a book and they asked if it was published, could they read it, what’s it about, etc.and found myself stunlocked trying to dodge the fact it’s fanfiction like I’m Skinner in the Steamed Hams bit.

I SEE HER DRESS AAAAAAH WE’RE SO BACK!!

Love love love!

TIRA’S GAME!!! AHHHHHHH

Yay, Code Vein 2!

God Eater 4 would be cool.

Need a new single player game. 🫠

Logging in to XIV to pay rent on my stupid houses until I see the demolition email next month.

2xko has been a real "load it up, play one fight, not enjoy it, quit, repeat four days later" kind of game for me so far.

At Busch Gardens with the nieces - currently in the longest line in the park: the line for food 🙃

DNF Duel is unironically one of my favorite FGs and honestly there hasn’t been a “modern” controls game as fun as it it yet. Granblue comes close but I will die on my kusoge hill and stare at 2XKO begrudgingly.

Thinking of doing a tarot card series for characters from the book. We’ll see.

I think about this too often. 🫠

Borderlands with friends! Yipee! I love Vex she’s cool

Big wrasslin came to town and the vibe is immaculate! Love it.

No really, they need to put Briar in 2XKO because I do not really like playing any of these characters.

A woman who works in my office 2 cubicles away from me smells like cat piss and fouled litter and it is so putrid it engulfs the entire floor and no one but me seems to care? Wtf do I do? Like, it is clearly THAT person, and there are folks who work right next to her, meanwhile I’m retching all day.

One day when their story is done, I like to think Eiserne and Fordola embark on a grand adventure together.

I’ll be playing Jinx (begrudgingly) in 2XKO until such time that best girl gets added. Put Briar in the game, Rito, and my life is yours!

Kinda want a lava lamp

Tactical mutes be saving me lately

Been half a year since I finished act 1 but Book 2 is here and Act 2 is STILL coming along (I swear 🫠) Where does the time go?

tfw you fucks with a game heavy but besty didn’t get into it so now you can’t gush over it together 😔

To sleep perchance to dream or some other dumb shit.

On brand; I want to engage with XIV content on Twitter, but most of it boils down to: HOT TAKE: Fordola good! and I don’t want to actually talk to people who disagree or even agree because MY Fordola is sacred—plz don’t perceive.

omg stfu (Me re: me)

A.B.A. 🗝️

If it actually happened, Crab Rave is gonna become the most played video ever.

The amount of reads I’ve seen re: YoshiP’s statement that are just wildly incorrect remind me that reading comprehension is at an all time low. And judging by comments, it also seems like non-modders have a real chip on their shoulder and don’t understand how mods fundamentally work.

[a fake universe where Eiserne has anything other than a bony, skinny ass]

Checked in to see that 1200 people have at least looked at Rules and that’s pretty neat. Same can’t be said for Garden, though that’s 100% my fault for taking months to write anything.

Been getting back into MH:W and been having a lot of fun with the Cornpopper GL. Those 9*s do not gaf though holy moly, but Fordola always gets her mark.

Friday + Pizza is like the best vibe man.

Simultaneously wanting to share my OC and Fordola stuff with the world but also wanting to not have them be perceived for fear of them being judged by a wider audience or “stolen.” Very normal. 👍

Sad to see Mare go. I only ever used it with 2 of my friends, but knowing they saw Eiserne as I see her and seeing their characters as they wanted was something special. I will genuinely miss that.

Soared with the eagles and slithered with the snakes but the cream always rises to the top.

What if Eiserne’s scythe blade was a big bird skull? Too on the nose?
