"Ah, right. There's Chisasa Chisa, my father's mother. She died before I was born, so I never met her. I heard that she was right skilled with a sword, always dramatically leaping into things. Sometimes I wonder how we would've gotten along."

#Lalapril Day 19 - Return(?) ๐ณ
"Other family? There's my aunt, Rarami Rami. She had a big falling out with family decades ago, and ran off to Sharlayan. Haven't heard from her in an age, and I reckon she'll not be returning anytime soon."

A wonderful little story! I like how the alchemist had to preempt a 'can't you just use a lalafell's frames? they're small.' question, as if they get it lot.
A red-haired lalafell looking over themself, focus on the green robe they'd recently acquired.

"I'd never been one for fancy robes or elaborate dress, but when we got to Sharlayan, Ethrya insisted I get something nice for myself for once. Liked it better than I thought I would, and I've kept it in good shape ever since."

#Lalapril Day 17 - Adrenaline ๐ณ
"My father, Tamido Sumido, always insisted there was nothing like hard work and the anticipation of finding the next big vein to really get the blood pumping. Never found the same thrill in it, but to each their own, I reckon."

Across the top: three sketch collection zines of Moth Monarch's art dated 2016-2017 (green with cartoon pill bugs), 2018-2021 (blue with assorted cartoon bugs), and 2021-2023 (orange with an excited cartoon moth in a flowy scarf). Below: an open spread from one of the zines showcasing lots of cartoon insect drawings. These rest on a metal table over a rough ground surface in the background. Watermark at the bottom reads "shop.mothmonar.ch"
Photo of a hand holding a teal card with three small enamel pins on it based on pill bugs - the top pin's design is curled up tight, the middle is partway curled, and the bottom is at rest. The card is printed with a tiny pattern featuring these same designs and says "Pill Bug Trio, Enamel Pin Set" on top with "The Art of Mary Capaldi" and logo at the bottom.
Photo close-up of a black bandana with a honeybee and honeycomb design printed in metallic gold ink.
Photo of three identical stickers of a celestial cecropia moth. Liberties have been taken to add a celestial flair to the markings, including tiny stars and moons in the wingspots and a more blue-purple color scheme overall. The stickers' lineart is a soft reflective gold color. They are overlapping in a horizontal row and resting on a blue and purple cloth with golden accents. Mark at the bottom reads "shop.mothmonar.ch".

I did not make it into the fanfest art illustration finalists category, but I enjoyed myself nonetheless! Please enjoy my hard work showing a reunion with Krile's family ๐

"My mum? Oh, no I don't think I got much magick from her. She always said she made a "very poor thaumaturge." Never saw her summon up even a spark."

This might make me the odd one, but: I literally never have anything else on when playing XIV. The idea of having some other music playing over the game bothers the hell out of me, and I am also completely unable to focus on more than one major source of input at a time.
