Companion chocobos will have new animation based on their companion rank and will now react to emotes "pet" and "poke".

Halmarut might’ve been designed in a lab to appeal to my specific tastes in character tropes… love a cute but ominous green-coded character.

If anyone hasn’t seen this 1.0 clip where a group of Wood Wailers are snapped out of existence by the elementals I’d heartily recommend it. Imagine being ruled over by fickle, vindictive fae overlords who have no grey area in their judgement. I’d be terrified, too.

Hiding all of Gridania’s lore behind 1.0.

Anyone who discusses ff14 with me long enough will hear my hour long essay on the elementals, greenwrath, and the padjals.

I wish it was obvious in 2.0 that Gridania is the way that it is (xenophobic) because it’s run on FEAR that five years can’t change.

There is a modern au for the Brambleverse where Yuyuka is adopted as a baby by Roscoe and Khali’ra. The entire premise is her growing up happy and healthy while being doted on by her dads and grandparents. 😊

Destination

Autumn's whisper soaring high
Lulla-lulla-lullaby
Baby's breath and butterflies
Sing in our sweet lullaby
Summer child with heavy eyes
Lulla-lulla-lullaby
Come our lonely angel nigh
Sing in our sweet lullaby 🎵

YIPPEEEE

a tumblr post by user saltypuffins. it reads: "i know so many aces who make the best erotic art!!!!!! 😊" good for them! i'm glad they can express themselves with that kind of art. but do you also support aces who are repulsed by sex? do you support aces who skip past sex scenes because it squicks them out? do you support aces who will express that they dislike certain types of content that you enjoy? do you call repulsed aces "puritans" for simply having a preference? or do you only support aces who do things that you value? 🤔 and if you are ace yourself.... do you only support aces who are like you? or do you support the entire spectrum?

you need to support aces who don't make erotica. you need to support aces who will never pass out water bottles at the orgy. you need to support aces who will never contribute to anything sex related ever. no ifs ands or buts. even other aces need to understand this. please consider how you are only giving in to compulsory sexuality. you need to support aces who will never do anything you value. you need to support aces who dislike things you value. no exceptions.

happy international asexuality day let's destroy compulsory sexuality

It was SO fun spending a weekend with you guys. Thanks for coming along!! 💚

It was my birthday last Sunday!
I celebrated with my closest friends.

@bexplaysffxiv.bsky.social blessed me with these adorable decorations of the Bramblewood family. 🥺

Hitting all my OCs with the ace beam because I'm ace too 🖤🩶🤍💜

Yuyuka is an asexual lesbian and S'kreigh is aroace!

Dust-Choked Hopes Bextifer Summary: Roscoe Bramblewood, Warrior of Light, returns to Gyr Abania for the first time since he fled the Imperial occupation many years ago. His role here is to inspire hope, to encourage unification and ultimately begin stirring the tides of change - but beneath his duty lies the inevitable and perhaps desperate hope that amid the dust and trampled hopes of this nation, he may yet find familiar faces who also made it out alive. (Spoiler warning for FFXIV MSQ up to Stormblood 4.0)

I posted the first of my Brambleverse drabbles up on Ao3! Very nervous because it's been a long time since I posted my writing online, but I hope to do more as we continue our replay of MSQ

Worst day of her life. She can’t believe she has to witness this.

“How old is your dad?” 😏
“Too old for you AND he’s married. Stay away from my father!” 🤢

Roscoe looking up at an NPC whose dialogue says 'Hey there, handsome. You looking to hire? I'm good with a lance.' Yuyuka, next to him, is scrunching up her face.

Yuyuka's dad being flirted with, right in front of her salad??

hi everyone happy tdov. normally i wouldnt do this but im a nonbinary lesbian who is currently unemployed with a cat having medical issues and the vet bills have been hurting a bit. i am NOT in dire need though, im just putting out the tip jar for anyone that enjoys what i do here 💙

Forlorn chocobo of a dying world what is your wisdom…

4. In G’raha’s original timeline(tm) Yuyuka was sent back to Gridania shortly after Kan-E-Senna discovered her horns. The history books do not cover where she went.

She did not die to Black Rose. She was reclaimed by the elementals and disappeared into the Shroud. Her chocobo left to wander alone.

3. If Kan-E-Senna didn’t send Yuyuka as Gridania’s aid to Alisaie’s efforts during coils (Roscoe was unavailable) then Yuyuka would not have been inspired to directly search for the missing pieces of her memory. She would not join the scions during SB, and would not be discovered to be a co-WoL.

2. If Yuyuka didn’t have the echo at all S’kreigh would simply Not Fight At Carteneau since he could simply leave Eorzea. He’d just take Yuyuka and go. No destiny? No problem.

Skreigh is not a true hero. He only cares about himself and his daughter. They would’ve left at the first sign of trouble.

1. If Yuyuka had stayed in her birth parents “care” she would’ve been named Nonola and raised by negligent gamblers in U’ldah. She wouldn’t have been sent to Stillglade Fane shortly before the calamity struck and S’kreigh wouldn’t have gone to Carteneau to fight for her future.

Most of Yuyuka’s life has been on a narrow path with little choice, especially given how young she is/was. A lot of earlier “what ifs” revolve around the adults in her life making different decisions. As she gets older she has more direct say.

Might make a mini thread as I think about it 👀

Fumbling navigating a situation that is so delicate and complex that he contemplates renaming himself Roscoe Bumblewood 🙏 I love him

I’ve always made OCs - Yuyuka would be no different.

She solidified herself as a notably young OC for the silliest reason - I picked up to the BSM job and after reading “don’t expect me to mother you” I thought it’d be interesting if she was actually a teenage WoL.

She’ll cry if you ask her to explain (in detail) what a car is. She doesn’t know. She’ll never really know.
