Oh I've always gone with Zhyk using glamour prisms (expensive, something he scrounges coin for) & double-layering it with void magic glamour (as we've seen imps & such do)!
I just think it would be an eye catching gpose if I had the potential to make it real on him ^^

I won't lie that WoL!Zhyk has a lot of muddled feelings regarding other deaths in the msq and such too! Temur is just the person who took the largest part of Zhyk's heart when he passed.
It's a complicated thing and likely remains so for a lot of Zhyk's life. Grief is messy like that; the world continues to grow around your pain—not exactly diminishing it, but making it a little more bearable. And some days it'll hurt just as strongly as the very first pangs of sorrow.
WoL!Zhyk gets the hell off the gondola & does NOT answer the question. He's healed (to a point) regarding Temur, but DT would have been tearing open that old wound.
Even if they met in the aetherial sea during EW, there's a part of Zhyk that would say yes to Temur in Living Memory & it bother him.
When he's dead! :D
Honestly, Zhyk has too much wanderlust & restless energy to retire. Even if he finds a safe domestic life, he'll want to adventure from time to time.
Vachir would like to retire in the next 15 to 25 years. He's tired and longs for a quieter, peaceful life. #zhyklore #vachlore
The way I would use the one highlight gpose thing to accentuate Zhyk's scarring... but he doesn't have it crimed in game 🪦
So I did quit my second job. Btwn being asked to work past the point of injury, wage discrimination & sexual harassment I'm done. I'm ok for now but if you're able to spare anything, I would be grateful for any help with a cushion til I figure out where to go from here. ko-fi.com/dawnforged
much blood for the blood god lately ⚔️
Zhyk's learned nature is bargaining, a difficult thing to unlearn without feeling guilt, anxiety, or suspicion. Interestingly, he'll offer of himself at times without requesting equal exchange, but struggles to accept the generosity of others.
Vachir's extremely generous, often overwhelmingly so.
Vachir will do broad, sweeping gestures at times to emphasize things or precise ones meant to draw attention in very specific ways.
Zhyk usually only talks with his hands during bouts of anger with sharp, aggressive movements. Otherwise he's keeping his hands close to himself or fidgeting.
Considering the themes I write with are entangled in grief & mourning, it would be easy to say those emotions (and the emotions surrounding loss, nostalgia, longing) would be the twisted facets.
The fear of losing loved ones, the desperation to save one's home, bargaining for more time, etc.
Zhyk has no experience managing other people in that way so do not ask him to. He'd probably abandon whatever post he's been given after a few hours and attempt whatever work he can himself.
Vachir's had exactly one (1) employee, but he thinks he's done a good job! He's a bit generous overall.
Forgot not to take part in bandwagon/interaction posts since I know I do not have the popularity for results
Since I see more and more people getting excited about this plug in. Please stay safe, friends. It's not very safe.

Told myself I only wanted to get a quick snap of his bruised knuckles, but he's just too handsome... 😌💜
POV: You just told him he looks gorgeous.
(I think he is! Zhyk's got a little while to go before he thinks the same. 💖)

Thank you!! 🥰 I'm pleased with how it turned out! Plus giving the lad some happiness for once! \o/

Honestly it's more like a Moogle flipping you off
There are no job stones (mostly since I trend toward the lore that such things are usually rarer depending on job) and when I write combat, it's more free and fluid than sticking only to the skills our WoLs have access to.
Which means no fancy transforming between jobs, but that's okay! #zhyklore
His main choice is an axe (MRD). But he's basic skill with daggers (RGE), is a decent shot with a bow (ARC), can fight dirty with his fists (PUG), and now has an aetherial constructed scythe (RPR) that'll branch into other weapons in future (greatsword/DRK, etc).
He also casts fire magicks (THM?)!⤵️
Yes, but it's not a whole thing like the game mechanics—he just reaches for a new weapon or his fists!
I take it as Zhyk having learned to wield several weapons over the years (some he's still learning!) and his recent skills in producing an aetherial scythe will augment those abilities further.⤵️
The article is good, but this is my favorite emoji, I adore the four-pointed star, I draw it on half of my works, I have SEVERAL tattoos with these stars, I steal it back from AI ✨✨✨✨✨
