Xavalien collects plants, both medicinal and and ones he simply likes. It's a difficult challenge to get them to grow in Coerthas but one he enjoys. He also likes to play harp, having learned from his mother. He's even been known to cart it over to the Holy Stables to play for stressed birds.

OC Hobbies! Lorhlona enjoys building models. She thinks of it as putting her shipwright skills to use in miniature. She mostly builds airships but does make the occasional other thing as well.

Today is definitely a full pot of tea kind of day.

Okay, it's time for a Moist Owlette™ timeline cleanse. Today's moist owlette is "Owlfredo" at the Stone Zoo in Stoneham, Massachusetts. She's an Eastern screech owl (Megascops asio) & Animal Ambassador with a big personality. (📷: @zoonewengland.bsky.social via IG)

What a guy

Celery. It tastes bad, it smells bad, it looks weird. Just no. There is nothing that can be added to it to fix it. There's not enough peanut butter in the world to hide the taste of celery.

I thought I'd try out a carousel with some of my favorite "background" shots of Eorzea.

Mei Adrianus is seriously one of my favorite artists on here. I've been happy with every single thing I've bought from her. She's always kind and communicates any possible issues. I definitely recommend giving her shops a visit :)

It's currently 101 degrees F in my area with a heat index of 105+. Bleh.

when you sort the reddit comments by controversial

Useless character lore: Lorhlona's hair looks like that because she often carries her rabbit, Sunshine, on her shoulders and he likes to chew on her hair. She would rather him do that than chew on her gear, since hair grows back.

This actually works for both my FFXIV and GW2 mains, lol. (Also, please do not give Sunshine a tank. We do not need an angry bunny running around with that much weaponry.)

I just read a nice write-up about the Tyria Pride event and its support for the Rainbow Railroad organization. I thought I'd share since positive news can be hard to come by anymore.

So Guild Wars 3 is official. I...uh...guess that saves me from grinding to finish those legendaries I was making? :(

Hey unlike the recent official slop, I'm a real human artist making real human ffxiv merch. I even have a Halmarut plush campaign with 10 days left to get funded 💕 >> ACGGoods: acggoods.com/store/amarys... >> Teepublic: tee.pub/lic/NvcbE1rp... [ #meiart #ffxivart #xivmerch #xivfmn ]

I don't know why I keep posting here. I was definitely less sad before I started.

I've been wondering if RP was still barely active in GW2. I guess the responses to this post kind of answer that. I've seen a few people in DR during OCE times and the warbands, who were among the few survivors of the Whisper in the Dark thing that killed most living world RP at the time in NA.

Posting this for no reason beyond it is cute and I like it.

If it isn't a rule that you have to say, "Oh no!" every time your spriggan minion drops his shiny rock, it should be.

This is the face of a man who truly loves being a retainer. Seriously, every time I see him I think of the "pieces of flair" scene from Office Space.

I'm starting to think my earlier statement of, "I'm sure it's still good" is about to be proven very, very wrong.

I love this so much! Stuff like this is why Guild Wars 2 really does have the best community of any MMO I've played. I've tried to do my part to earn our community reputation as "aggressively helpful." I can't do this JP yet on turtle, but I've played taxi in other areas more than a few times :)

My currently installed MMOs lined up by when I started playing them. Missing from the list are MapleStory 2 and Star Citizen, which I have also played but are not installed.

I thought I'd post some pictures of my Animal Crossing Island. I redecorate every month and this month's theme is "April showers bring May flowers." More descriptions on each pic in the alt text. All custom designs are mine so I have no one to blame but myself. (Character: Bun Island: Burrow)

I've been working on a few FFXIV clothing items for my Animal Crossing island and finally (mostly) finished them! I may do more work on the stone on the back of the spriggan shirt but I'm pretty happy with the others. Special thanks to @drunkurianger.bsky.social 's house-fluffle for posing for me!

If you're not supposed to fuck up your mudras, why did they reward doing so with a rabbit friend? This is bad game design.

I really love it when an artist I follow gets insanity levels of obsessed with [thing they like] and will not stop drawing it. It's so very charming. Go girl give us one billion drawings of that little freak in your head who I know nothing about. He's my blorbo in law now

It's my birthday today, I would love it if I could get more eyes on my commissions and shop, if folks wouldn't mind reposting and spreading the word (っ´ω`c)♡ Comms: ko-fi.com/amarysdesigns Shop: acggoods.com/store/amarys... Art is my only income so it would be a huge help 🎀

If you look closely you will notice a certain orange rabbit hiding in the shrubbery where he waits to attack the unwary. It may have been a bad idea to get that rabbit-sized striking dummy for him to practice his attack. (Do rabbit ninjas get the rabbit hat if they mess up?)

My husband doesn't play FFXIV but I tell him about the various storylines. Each character gets a nickname so it is easier for him to keep track. Guess which unfortunate soul got "The 'whores and rainbows' guy" for his?

*Jazz hands* They massively screwed around with my snap benefits, and it will be awhile before they fix their error. I'm out of food, offering up sketch portraits for $20! ko-fi.com/scionfunds

Ah yes, the guy wanted in Ul'dah for regicide decides to visit the Sultansworn. Good thing they totally didn't recognize him! Oh wait... (At least my Roe did better when she was in early Heavensward. She walked around the city dressed like the Saint of Nymeia. No one suspected a thing!)

9,671 hours over 3,486 days (For anyone wondering why this is a big deal - in Guild Wars 2 someone is generally considered a veteran player at around 10,000 achievement points. Most will never pass 30,000. So I'm rather proud of myself.)

Seeing the costs of the new legendary PvE accessory makes me so happy I have Aurora and Vision. Seven million karma. Seven. Million. We are going to need Wintersday in May and a hell of a lot more orphans.

It would be nice if we could get this in the colors of the different High Houses. It would also be cool if we could get house shields to hang on the wall.

The decorating isn't over until I run out of item slots!

I keep running into the problem of wanting something from Animal Crossing when I'm decorating in Final Fantasy.

How many Gridanians does it take to change a lightbulb? "That is for the Hearers to discern in accordance with the will of the Elementals, outsider." (Of course the joke is boring and humorless. It's Gridanian.)

Yes! Please post all the cool things you do! Post them several times! Remember your loyal followers who need you to post and repost your art! It is artists like you who make this place a veritable waterfall of awesomeness and we, the receivers, are truly fortunate to see it.

Still up at 4am watching cute bunny videos. Must go to sleep and dream of buns.

🐇 Let's do another commission share! Whether you're open or currently closed, link your stuff below! All forms of human made content! NSFW is OK as long as you have it properly labeled! Gpose and modding commissions are also welcome! Absolutely no AI is permitted.

As much as I generally enjoy Super Adventure Box, I'm perfectly happy for it to be over for the year. Getting two people through their annual achieves on the last night is exhausting.

I must say while I have a long way to go before I get to the new content, my little hoarder heart is happy about how much more stuff I can shove into the armoire!
