A pale elezen duskwight facing away from the viewer, his back shows dappled light of green and gold and teals as well with two cicadas like wings draped down. It looks as if they are made of stained glass as well as his skin with the same dappled light effect.

enodia or hecate but something else entirely. girlie is her whole own death and rebirth cycle as an act of self-reflection. and then. like. transcendence by choice (love). if you asked rinh if love was giving up or fighting on, i don't think she'd be able to tell you, but honestly it doesn't matter.

she's the most "philia" she's ever been when azem cedes to rinh as an act of love for rinh herself, as well as what azem themself once was, and the sister they fought so hard to keep the broken pieces of. it's when enodia lets go that lycoris is truly reborn, for once truly neither separately

by the time she is forced to fully tap into the nature of her own aether and make the choice on what shape she will hold onto when she returns, it's rinh and aymeric and the completely imperfect, powerless, mortal desire to simply exist with him for a little longer that grounds her.

"philia" - he recognizes what she is, but he never met lycoris in the end times. he just remembers enodia's (azem's) and hecate's nature so if the twins had rejoined, what else could they be but full self love and actualization? i don't think rinh ever knows if he meant it derogatorily but.

if she'd become a light warden during the events of shadowbringers she'd probably have been agape because she still saw herself as fully sacrificial to her role but i hc that when rinh allows azem to surface and help her through her fight w/ hades along w/ ardbert's aether hades refers to her as

did u know that the only reason azem didn't fully subsume rinh as the will of lycoris (for azem to continue existing) is b/c rinh had finally let herself love and be loved and her desire to live at the end was finally fully selfish and untainted by a conflation with devotion. this is also why

my desktop is alive again and i finally have a new desk and monitor so i can comfortably go back to staring at these two. i'll have you know i've just been torturing them in unpublished fic off screen though.

enshrined, her Father mostly didn't allow pilgrims/worshippers to see her eyes out of respect for the kami that ostensibly resided in her. She has found a lot of Eorzeans find the blindfold off-putting though, so she's gotten a bit more careful/intentional about using it. #rinhcalore

She wears full blindfolds a lot during the day, actually, because she doesn't really need to see to sense the world sufficiently (see: freakishly overwhelming aether/aetheric sensitivity). It helps with the light sensitivity and it's how she spent a lot of her childhood. When she was

is quite used to just. Kind of being a bit tired all the time. She doesn't really sleep steadily through the night and tends to meditate and nap throughout the day and night rather than sleep deeply for many straight bells. Her night vision is very good and she's a touch light sensitive though!

Rinh was raised by primarily hyuran caretakers and she's not an Eorzean keeper, exactly, though her clan is approximately the eastern analogue of this group. So she'd probably be closer to nocturnal if she was left to her own devices and is most at east between dusk and dawn, but she

Thinking about how Evie lost her sight while Coerthas still looked like this. And then she was in Gridania for years after. Heavensward is literally a completely unfamiliar and frigid homecoming. But also, she's still got beautiful, green Ferndale in her mind's eye. She can hold on to spring.

Doing a museum themed stamp rally for WHA at Denver Fanexpo!
Here's my prize piece, based on Monet's "Bridge over a pond of water lilies" :D
I think it turned out rather nice <3

Missing aymerinh but not been in a ffxiv mood... Partially my desktop isn't back in working order. Partially mhs3 still has me in a chokehold.

I miss Rinh but also I've been feeling quite refreshed just existing irl and exploring new physical spaces. I'm hoping to be back more regularly for wolmeric week but for now I'm just taking it slow and adjusting to my new job and home. ... Also, jet lag hard. But. Nonetheless.

let’s hang out by the field with mama

Two bunnies are fishing on a very small, wood bridge over a brook. One of them is using ham from a ham sandwich as bait. in the shallow water of the brook, two catfish are visible
