classic story of 'man causes immense pain and suffering to others. never has a Redemption. asks for forgiveness from his Creation at the end. is denied said forgiveness, which is the first time she's ever gone against him' #carbunclelore

qotd made for exquisite. he's a published author of erotic stories of various genres (<- im still working out lore stuff). he writes under a pen name, working in accounting as a day job.
fun trivia: edmont is a fan of exquisite's work BEFORE they ever meet lol #carbunclelore

bringing in rare fay & fix lore! fay walks with a purpose and has firm steps. she doesn't sneak well.

felix walks with sharp steps, usually with the click of a heel. if he had neighbors theyd hate his 3am pacing. however, he's able to be eerily quiet when necessary.
#carbunclelore

ran outta characters & forgot to tag first post, apologies for this. @myself this is a #carbunclelore exquisite thread

exquisite is an author! he loves to read. it's one of his main hobbies lmao.
aurele enjoys reading when there's time for it. he's also /excellent/ at reading aloud. like, he can make grueling paperwork sound interesting.
#carbunclelore

some of this comes from a place of feeling lost as a person; he doesnt want other ppl to go through his experience of feeling out of place and/or untethered. his sense of humor amuses some ppl; there are those who see a more humorously sarcastic/outwardly witty side of him #carbunclelore

#carbunclelore i actually have a few titles for 2 of the 'story bubbles', btw.
(Carrion) King & Consort: admetos and lyssum
Nom de Plume: exquisite's stuff

exquisite's plotline(s) are still being majorly workshopped, partially held back by me not having started HW proper. he audits camp dragonhead AND house fortemps itself. there's even the idea of a scion au for him where he gets involved by auditing waking sands. #carbunclelore

actually this question is fucking wild to see because exquisite is involved w ishgard bc he's hired on for an investigation into heretics and money (there's a whole plot trying frame ppl & he's part of an audit investigation of various things like, oh, camp dragonhead.) #carbunclelore

okay putting #carbunclelore on this bc whoopsie character lore

research shows edmont de fortemps is under appreciated. him & exquisite meet when exquisite is brought in to assist with an audit of house fortemps. later edmont learns that exquisite is the author behind the pen name of the smutty books edmont adores lmAO #carbunclelore

fay's memories begin when she woke upon the crypt slab. she follows fosse's word to the letter, for there is nothing else to follow. each spell, each flourish, each attack rips her further asunder. soon there may be nothing left for fosse to stitch back together. #carbunclelore #carbuncleposes

felix fosse, now parading as cyril dejardin, spends his days playing doctor for the well-to-do of ul'dah. his nights are spent in the pursuit of further knowledge and power, even when it comes at the expense of others. especially when it comes at the expense of others. #carbunclelore #carbuncleposes

felix considers fay his magnum opus, the proof of his theories, the sweet fruit of his efforts. fay has no considerations, as a tool has no need to consider its master. she is the extension of his will, and she will be to the end, as each spell rips her further apart. #carbunclelore

btw that is a lore update, haurchefant and theodora are 176% married and many mornings haurchefant cant help but smile bc he loves getting to be married to theo & they're just so mushy for each other #carbunclelore

as of rn, w/where i am in ARR, the scions intend to help aurele w/the whole 'im powerful magic mcgee but am head empty regarding Who I Am And Stuff" but the whole primals situation takes first priority #carbunclelore

wol talk time. i havent finished ARR, and my knowledge of ffxiv is v slim, so forgive me. anyway aurele literally didnt exist before the intro cutscene: i've always seen that as the wol being Created! so aurele 'came to' on a ship headed for limsa lominsa, knowing naught but his name. #carbunclelore

exquisite's dad was a carpenter, and met exquis' mom when working at the theater she performed at during that time. exquisite was a child frm a prev relationship, and his mom had no qualms accepting him into her heart. #carbunclelore

trailing off of the dance talk, exquisite's mom was an opera performer, and did quite a bit of dancing too. she wasn't disappointed when when exquisite took to writing instead of performing- she was very proud of him for pursuing his joys in life. #carbunclelore

im gonna add a hashtag for my character lore lol ignore this #carbunclelore
