Carbuncle Level Up! ❤️ #FFXIV

Gotta participate in this year's -tober challenge

Nope. Nuh uh. Hikaru'd need to use Invincible Star or wear a hazmat suit around that. (she presumably inherits my pineapple allergy, therefore)

"What character changed your brain chemistry?" and it's my own OCs

U L T R A V I O L E N C E “but what about the swearing and when she hops in bed with N—“ ULTRAVIOLENCE. That’s all one needs. The rest isn’t nearly as important. :)

I'm not sure if this directly answers, but in #XIVExtended Hikaru gets a crystal that has a recording of Insatiable as performed by the Exarch. In this timeline it is known to have a weakening effect on Sin Eaters, so Hikaru plays it when it's time for her to punch a Lightwarden. 🔊🔊🔊

I love reading about other characters. It's so amazing to see everyone's creative side and their OCs being three-dimensional with reasoning, purpose, and emotions.

maaaan, as much as I would like to just grab Trails in the Sky right now, I would also want to give it the proper time and attention and FFT comes out in just over a couple weeks. I would hate to rush Sky out so I don't have to set it aside for however long it will take to get through FFT. :S

Mine would put on the smooth jazz station. I ended up coming to enjoy it myself and it likely influenced my preference for ambience and such. (contrast with the stepfather who would blast mariachi bands knowing that I would hate it)

* Alexander (Numair) * Hildibrand (Phil and Yoshi) * Return to Ivalice (Hikaru) * Myths of the Realm (Hikaru, Rei and Numair) * Loporrit dailies (Numair and Kiros) * Lunar Whale (Hikaru and Valkyrja)

Reasons why Hikaru very insistently has Alphinaud and/or Yoshi do media interviews in her place. That one scene in Endwalker when everyone shows up to drop off refined adamantite? Definitely not Hikaru speaking up there. (She's in no condition, mentally, to do it anyway.) She makes Yoshi do it.

A good IRL timeline cleanse is to take a moment several times a day to imagine your OTP kissing. This is backed by hard science. The hard science is this fic I wrote

"Proceed with caution...!!!" #ffxiv #ff14 #fenart #illustration

what if we also beat ourself up together

Internalizing that not everything is about you. Or for you. Or made with you in mind. Or directed at you. Or supposed to include you. Or require your opinion. Or your approval. In fact most things are not. Being online is quite easy when you don't try to be the protagonist of everyone else's lives.

Hikaru's permanent roster is up to 13 as of Dawntrail. Ignoring instances in which a specific character is called for, the "default" rollout as of base DT release is: - herself as tank - Phil as healer - Numair as 1st DPS - Kiros as 2nd DPS (cont.)

btw telling an artist you like their OC/want to see more has a lot more impact than numbers of likes and shares... obv those are appreciated too, but you don't really know what ppl sharing your art think of it unless they tell you. and it feels really nice to know! a kind comment goes a long way :)

Please give me an unironic list of things that have gotten better over the last ten years because I’m spiraling. I’ll start: you can buy an enormous TV from Costco for like $100 bucks now.

there is no position more esteemed than that of the one OC that you remake in every video game in a character creator

more people should give their ocs funny and meaningless flaws. a minor allergy to apples they refuse to admit is an allergy. a fear of birds. a deeply held conspiracy theory that is so untrue and ridiculous they very rarely even mention it

i like to roleplay with my friends, and by roleplay, i mean "occasionally message each other about interactions that our OCs could/would have, and sometimes we gpose them maybe, but usually we just talk about it in a 'yeah that would be cool/hot/funny' kind of way"

self-love, self-transformation 🧵

more of this

Here's one more I found.

Got my brain cell carrier!

There’s 3 strangers online that I want to like and respect me as a person, and 3 strangers online who I fantasize about feeding to jackals

I love the smell of consequences in the morning. Thank you, @dragoncon.org

very direct evidence that video game piracy is important in the preservation of video games

"thank you for submitting your recertification, but your CalFresh is being discontinued" man, September literally just started and it's already going very well and mom is being Very Normal about it 🫠

my entire soul for alliance raid explorer mode

Hikaru typically doesn’t drink but found that three servings (of any size) are her limit. It’s lights out afterward. In patch 6.4 she found out after a post-MSQ “yay we made it back alive” party at Faris’ winery. Trollbuncle took advantage of the situation to slap Hikaru with his tail. :}}} (1/?)

Things are looking up, Shion! 💙 WIP #Xenosaga #Xenosaga3 #fanart

for reasons unknown *even to her,* Hikaru's left arm broke during the Zeromus fight. She can't recall what specifically caused it, but taking repeated tankbusters while under a Healing Received Down debuff is likely the most plausible source.

tl;dr

this a million times the bad people will never see your transphobic jokes, your homophobic jokes, your ableist jokes, your racist jokes, your fatphobic jokes but allllll your friends will and we’ll know exactly how you feel about us CRITIQUE THEIR WORDS AND ACTIONS THOSE ARE THE BAD THINGS

Also if anyone tries to be like "ew lol you're x years old and making ocs that's so cringe lol" just remember every character in your favorite book or movie or game or TV show is someone's oc. Ian Malcolm is Micheal Crichton's oc Gandalf is J.R.R. Tolkien's oc Cloud Strife is Tetsuya Nomura's oc
