One of them is more focused on doing research while knowingly watching the other being distracted and amused by a certain someone napping in the library 🤭

…Elsie considers to fake a swimming accident to make him join her in the pool 🤭

Post a FFXIV meme made by you!

I don't know why I always meme-fy @avirael.bsky.social OC's

I think I have not posted a picture of Elsie since Febhyurary, so here is an unused one from back then

Day 28 - Wilds

"Most of this island is an untouched wilderness and we don't aim to change this, just have a little spot for ourselves. There are myriads of wild animals. Some we can live peacefully together with and even get wool or milk from."

#Febhyurary ✦ #ElsieReed ✦ #FFXIV ✦ #gpose ✦ #Hyur

Day 27 - Hub

"Life has been calmer lately. Finally there is a more happy and hopeful mood among the people here. Just like their dreams had not been futile, neither would be ours. This place is our home now and the people here our family."

#Febhyurary ✦ #ElsieReed ✦ #FFXIV ✦ #gpose ✦ #Hyur

Day 26 - Fantasia

"Last night I had the strangest dream. I looked into the mirror and noticed that I had ears and tail just like a Miqo'te! I never was aware that this difference between us might bother me but now I wonder... Would it bother you?"

#Febhyurary ✦ #ElsieReed ✦ #FFXIV ✦ #gpose

Day 25 - Dawn

"I always was an early bird and am usually up before dawn. At this time of the day the island is the most quiet. There is nothing more peaceful than to watch the sunrise over the ocean with a cup of coffee in hands."

#Febhyurary ✦ #ElsieReed ✦ #FFXIV ✦ #gpose ✦ #Hyur

Day 24 - Boss

"Hello Onyx! Did you run away from your mother and the boss again?", she greeted the small, black chocobo that had appeared beside her chirping happily.
The little troublemaker liked to observe her working and also beg for headpats.

#Febhyurary ✦ #ElsieReed ✦ #FFXIV ✦ #gpose ✦ #Hyur

Day 23 - Quest

"The others brought a lot of books back from their last trip and I wanted to see if there is anything useful to find. Among them were a few with legends and adventurer tales. Maybe I could read a few of the stories to the children."

#Febhyurary ✦ #ElsieReed ✦ #FFXIV ✦ #gpose ✦ #Hyur

Day 22 - Ship

"I enjoy traveling with the others, out to the ocean, hearing the waves splash against the hull of the ship and feeling the wind. Even more though I love sailing out in my fishing boat. Then I can calm down and think more clearly."

#Febhyurary ✦ #ElsieReed ✦ #FFXIV ✦ #gpose ✦ #Hyur

Day 21 - Walk

"When I have free time I often go on walks across the island. Sometimes Nhagi'ra protests that it is not safe but then I remind him how we met. Occasionally I allow him to join me or I take Obsidian and Onyx with me for protection."

#Febhyurary ✦ #ElsieReed ✦ #FFXIV ✦ #gpose ✦ #Hyur

Day 20 - Divinity

"The deity I am most familiar with is Llymlaen. Whenever I am in town I visit the mark of the navigator leaving a small offering so that Llymlaen will always protect my new family on their journeys and safely return them home."

#Febhyurary ✦ #ElsieReed ✦ #FFXIV ✦ #gpose ✦ #Hyur

Day 19 - Outfit
(aka Aerith Cosplay)

"I'm glad I met you. I really am. I'm grateful for all the words we've shared. For all the moments, and the memories. You've made me more happy than you know."
- Aerith Gainsborough

#Febhyurary ✦ #ElsieReed ✦ #FFXIV ✦ #gpose ✦ #Hyur

Day 18 - Shadow

"These months when I could not remember anything, I felt so lost.
My mind was trapped in darkness, my memories enshrouded in fog and the heavy shadows of doubt never left my heart. What if I would never remember?"

#Febhyurary ✦ #ElsieReed ✦ #FFXIV ✦ #gpose ✦ #Hyur

Day 17 - Water

"Today Styrgeim and I decided to give the kids swimming lessons. Surprisingly neither Iltani nor Nhagi'ra were good swimmers either. Later we played games at the beach, built sand castles and simply enjoyed the good weather."

#Febhyurary ✦ #ElsieReed ✦ #FFXIV ✦ #gpose ✦ #Hyur

Day 16 - Squad

"Everyone is always so kind to me and I decided I want to return the favor in a way and tried to improve my cooking. Styrgeim loves fish and Nhagi eagerly tries everything I cook. Only Iltani seems a bit more difficult…”

#Febhyurary ✦ #ElsieReed ✦ #FFXIV ✦ #gpose ✦ #Hyur

Day 15 - NPC

"The weather in Limsa was colder than expected but A'vi kindly borrowed me a jacket. Told me he got it during one of his visits to Ishgard and that with it I reminded him of one of the friends he had made there."

#Febhyurary ✦ #ElsieReed ✦ #FFXIV ✦ #gpose ✦ #Hyur

Day 14 - Love

"Everyone can see you two are in love, you know?", Styrgeim said.

"That again?", Elsie laughed. "How often do I need to tell you that Nhagi and I are just friends?"

Styrgeim rolled her eyes.
"Uh-huh, of course, just friends..."

#Febhyurary ✦ #ElsieReed ✦ #FFXIV ✦ #gpose ✦ #Hyur

Day 13 - Storm

"The most terrifying storm I have ever seen was during the Calamity. We fled inland but my father went back to check his boat. The next morning the boat was still there, stranded like a dead whale. My father however was gone."

#Febhyurary ✦ #ElsieReed ✦ #FFXIV ✦ #gpose ✦ #Hyur

Day 12 - Journey

"Where are we going?", I asked when instead of walking to the markets to buy supplies, you took me to the airship landing of Limsa Lominsa. With a boyish grin you replied, "It's a surprise!"

#Febhyurary ✦ #ElsieReed ✦ #FFXIV ✦ #gpose ✦ #Hyur

Day 11 - Fight

"I have never been a fighter but I always knew how to defend myself.
As for weapon skills, I have none. But I guess a spear that could pierce fish out of the water would not shy away from piercing people too if necessary."

#Febhyurary ✦ #ElsieReed ✦ #FFXIV ✦ #gpose ✦ #Hyur

Day 10 - Class

"Maybe we can transport my old boat and what remains of my tools here, so I can help with providing food. Until then a simple fishing rod will have to do and I will gladly provide classes for anyone interested in learning from me."

#Febhyurary ✦ #ElsieReed ✦ #FFXIV ✦ #gpose ✦ #Hyur

Day 09 - Heaven

"We gazed up to the clear night sky with the moon and all the glistening stars reflected in the endless surface of the sea. You told me everything you know about them, their names and stories, as if they were old friends of yours."

#Febhyurary ✦ #ElsieReed ✦ #FFXIV ✦ #gpose ✦ #Hyur

Day 08 - Crystal

"Close your eyes.", Nhagi'ra said, carefully took her hand when she did as he asked, and placed the gift he had prepared with so much effort and help in her palm. His voice sounded a bit nervous when he added, "Now you can look."

#Febhyurary ✦ #ElsieReed ✦ #FFXIV ✦ #gpose ✦ #Hyur

Day 07 - Sleep

"After I awoke a strange girl told me I had been unconscious and my head injured. She did so without speaking a single word. Scales covered her body and horns grew where her ears should have been but I felt like I could trust her."

#Febhyurary ✦ #ElsieReed ✦ #FFXIV ✦ #gpose ✦ #Hyur

Day 06 - Vision

"There is a vision we all share for this island and all its people. That it may become a place of sanctuary, of healing, of new beginnings. I am no farmer but some of the people here once were and I am willing to learn from them."

#Febhyurary ✦ #ElsieReed ✦ #FFXIV ✦ #gpose ✦ #Hyur

Day 05 - Color

"The others took me to the city, we browsed through the market stalls and Tani and A‘vi helped me choose a new dress for myself. I love this color, it reminds me of you. The color of your eyes, turquoise as the calm clear sea."
