Xel'ia, my miqo warrior of light, poses on an armchair, her legs tucked up beneath her and her back arched. She fixes the viewer with a slight smile, lashes lowered, in sheer black lacey lingerie. A tiny speech bubble pointing off screen has a doodle of Estinien with a nosebleed, blushing, and says "By the Fury, woman -- come here" with little hearts all around it.

Late night pick me up ✨

Ty for this Mo bc I somehow forgot about this Xelstinien Stb-era wip until I went digging through my notes and I REALLY need to get back to it 💀

She's down so bad she's so torn, my girl is Yearning

I really need to pose them more often 🥹 #xelstinien #xel'iajesal

Xel'ia, a brunette miqo'te, lies on top of a shirtless Estinien. He presses her to him, one hand on her lower back, one hand rucking up her jean shorts. Lipstick stains his cheek and chest where Xel'ia has kissed him. They lay on a wicker sofa with multicolored pillows, half in shade, while dappled sunlight dances through the foliage behind them. In the distance, azure water sparkles as it washes over white sand beneath a cloud-strewn blue sky.

Oh, to be kissed by the sun 🌅

A sketch page of Estinien Varlineau and my Warrior of Light, Xel'ia Jesal. In the upper left, they are both in profile as she touches his face. In the lower right, he is kissing her collarbone. Snapdragons and lilies fill out the white space behind them, as well as two shrikes landing on twisting thorny vines.

Oh, fair and flighty love

The only dove I see 💙🌿

Xel'ia and Estinien sit in the snow, presumably post-sparring match, or maybe during a pause on their journey. Estinien sits cross legged, looking over a frozen lake and mountains, patting Xel'ia's ankle (one of the few parts of her dragoon armor that has no spikes or blades). His face is turned slightly towards Xel'ia, but his expression is unreadable. Xel'ia sits facing him, her arms looped around her knees, looking down at where he touches her, a small smile on her lips -- the only part of her expression that is visible. Behind them stretches a frozen lake, tall pines, and the jagged mountains of Coerthas.

"I was in the middle before I knew I had begun." ❄️

I think a lot about all the little off-screen interactions these two had in HW 😭

Estinien holds Xel'ia, princess style, in front of green foliage with light streaming through the blue sky behind them. Sunlight dapples over their shoulders; Xel'ia's face is mostly hidden against Estinien's neck as he kisses her shoulder.

Happy Valentine's day 💙

Especially to *the* couple of all time 🥹

this is a Xelstinien appreciation thread 😌 most of what I've drawn for them, and mostly in chronological order (except this piece is the newest and also my favorite) [1/6]

A distressed Estinien cradles a bloody and battered Xel'ia (the Warrior of Light) in his arms on the Ragnarok. Subtitles at the bottom of the screen read "She's not...she's not breathing! You have to heal her -- bring her back. Please."

I'll come back when you call me; no need to say goodbye 💫 [2023]

Two figures sit near a campfire amidst the towering trees and far-off mountains of the Dravanian Forelands (FFXIV). Estinien says "Tis strange...I hadn't considered that miqo'te might purr." Xel'ia responds, "Is that so?" and Estinien replies "You're the first I've gotten to know, as it were."

A closer shot of the two, where Xel'ia looks away coyly and says, "I suppose you wouldn't have had much opportunity [to meet miqo'te] in Ishgard." Estinien, in his full drachen armor, replies, smiling, "Nay, not until you, that is." And Xel'ia replies, "Mm...well...If I might make a suggestion..."

Xel'ia looks at Estinien with a raised eyebrow and lowered lashes, leaning closer as she says, "Perhaps you ought to broaden your horizons..."

"...Wyrmblood," Xel'ia finsihes, leaning close enough to Estinien that the visor of his helmet is pushed up, revealing part of his face. The two aren't quite kissing, but are close enough to...if only one of them would close the distance.

Camping in the Dravanian Forelands 🌌
