An ethereal portrait of a male Viera, Bastjien, as he looks toward the camera. One of his eyes is covered by an eyepatch with a scar running down his cheek from under it. The other eye is a vibrant purple and holds a gentle, curious, if a little wary gaze from behind a section of his dark blue and white hair that has come undone from its messy style.

Woke up this morning to find that @dawnlingchen.bsky.social had absolutely BLESSED me with this beautiful portrait of my precious Bastjien 🥺

I love him so much 😭🥺💙 Thank you for this beautiful piece!!!

Thejya and Bastjien regularly sing in their parents’ tribal dialect, a mixture of the folk songs their parents taught them as kits, and their own original compositions.

Thejya has picked up folk songs from different places during their travels, too 🎶

#ThejyaTalk #BastjienBun

I have. A great need. For Winter Olympics AU.

Khione is a figure skater, of course.

Bastjien does biathlon or cross-country skiing or ski mountaineering.

Thejya is a snowboarder or a freestyle skier.

Khione: ✨❄️👑💃🩰

Thejya: 🔥🏹🎶🎻

Bastjien: 🌱🎸🕺⚔️

#KhioneLore #ThejyaTalk #BastjienBun

Khi is as short as she is for two reasons: (1) I am nothing if not a size difference truther, and (2) G'raha Tia is a short king and so he needed an even shorter queen.

The Twins are tall because idk I wanted them to be giants

#KhioneLore #ThejyaTalk #BastjienBun

Khione is famously terrified of ducks after a childhood incident with an angry mother duck, resulting in her nose scar.

Thejya is all swagger until she hears thunder, then she's diving under a blanket.

Bastjien finds the concept of pickles disconcerting.

#KhioneLore #ThejyaTalk #BastjienBun

Khione's is "Frost-breathing witch queen" (bonus if you get the reference)

Thejya's is "If found, please return to Bastjien"

Bastjien's is "I'm Bastjien."

I totally forgot to tag this 🤦‍♀️

Khione and I wish to plead the Fifth.

Thejya cheers for the Falcons SOLELY because she loves falcons (she's especially fond of kestrels) and she looks good in red and black.

Bastjien similarly cheers for the Seahawks because he likes the colours.

#KhioneLore #ThejyaTalk #BastjienBun

Bastjien --> "Huh. I love the nickname Bastian for guys named Sebastian. I would love to give this name to a character." *makes a bnuuy.* "Huh. I should make it lore-compliant." *adds a j to it and turns the second 'a' into an 'e'.*

Foixewesfv --> Random Name Generator in CC.

#BastjienBun

Khione can touch the tip of her nose with her tongue, and can recite the alphabet backwards in three different dead languages.

Thejya can juggle blindfolded.

Bastjien believes there's no such thing as a useless talent.

#KhioneLore #ThejyaTalk #BastjienBun

Bastjien, meanwhile, is actually a skilled sailor and just generally loves being on/near the water.

#BastjienBun

Khione: No. Just. No.

Thejya: HELL YEAH but without the fake bunny tail -- she has a real one of her own.

Bastjien: He could be convinced (if you try hard enough (aka give him big wet pleading eyes and ask nicely))

#KhioneLore #ThejyaTalk #BastjienBun

Khione: Eats every part of the pizza......with a fork and knife. Like a lady.

Thejya: Feeds the crusts to Sprinkles Jr., or dips crusts in hot sauce and eats them like breadsticks.

Bastjien: He has no strong opinion one way or another.

#KhioneLore #ThejyaTalk #BastjienBun

Khione starts off as Lawful Good but quickly shifts to Neutral Good and even Lawful Neutral if you make her sit and wait long enough.

Thejya ranges anywhere from Chaotic Good to Chaotic Neutral to any of the Evils.

Bastjien is True Neutral and/or Lawful Good

#KhioneLore #ThejyaTalk #BastjienBun

Some cute, fun #BastjienBun lore inspired by lrp: Bast LOVES scarves and drapey layers and is rarely seen without them

Khione is a combat-oriented water/ice bender from Republic City.

Thejya is a non-bender, or a fire bender with the personality of an aggressive air bender.

Bastjien is a gentle earth bender who has figured out how to focus in on the earth particles in plants.

#KhioneLore #ThejyaTalk #BastjienBun

Basty-Boo, I sure do love you 🥺💙😘

#gpose #ffxiv #ffxivscreenshots #gposers #viera #BastjienBun

Khione is not only not cute, but she will also use her frost fire to show you exactly *how* not cute she is (despite her diminutive size).

Thejya is cute in the way that the carnivorous rabbit from Monty Python is cute.

Bastjien is actually cute.

#KhioneLore #ThejyaTalk #BastjienBun

Khione would *attempt* "Set Fire to the Rain" by Adele. Key word: **attempt**.

Thejya doesn't drink but will take any excuse to sing even when not on tour. Her go-to for karaoke is "No Good Deed" from Wicked.

Bastjien's is "The Parting Glass"

#KhioneLore #ThejyaTalk #BastjienBun

Khione has a very posh English accent - like, British royalty type posh - with the faintest hint of French inflection that becomes more and more pronounced (and less faint) when she's agitated.

Thejya and Bastjien both have STRONG Highland Scottish accents.

Khione: Kee-oh-neh

Thejya: Thay-uh (Like the name Theia)

Bastjien: Bas-tjen (like Sebastian)

#KhioneLore #ThejyaTalk #BastjienBun

Thejya is very picky about who can refer to her as anything rabbit-related, and also about *when*. Granted, Thejya is a bunny in the same way the carnivorous rabbit from Monty Python and the Holy Grail is a bunny.

Bastjien is pretty neutral about it. He's just vibing.

Khione exists along the A3 to B2 spectrum depending on the time of day, availability of sweet cream, and her mood.

Bastjien is a precious C1 baby.

Thejya knocks back A1 like it's water (but with copious amounts of sugar)
