A Gpose of two figures, standing in Ultima Thule among the Elpis flowers. The shot is taken from further away, with the two figures on display in the middle of a field of Elpis flowers, with a blue planetoid and purple clouds in the background. Rue, the figure on the left, is kneeling and holding a bouquet of Elpis flowers up to Alhya who stands, turned to the side. The two look up at each other. Both wear black and red armor. Rue is a Garlean with dark grey hair, blue eyes, and a chitinous "third eye" in the middle of their forehead. Alhya is a Miqo'te with black hair with red highlights, light blue eyes, and a shortened tail.

A GPose of the same scene, this time taken over Rue's shoulder. Rue's face is just barely visible on the right side and the bouquet of Elpis flowers can be seen. The left side of the frame focuses on Alhya, who looks at Rue with a satisfied smile on their face. Rue is a Garlean with dark grey hair, blue eyes, and a chitinous "third eye" in the middle of their forehead. Alhya is a Miqo'te with black hair with red highlights, light blue eyes, and a shortened tail.

A similar image to the previous one, this one more zoomed out so part of Rue's back and shoulder can be seen. It is taken from a lower angle so not as much of the flowers are visible, but still focuses more on Alhya's face. Rue is a Garlean with dark grey hair, blue eyes, and a chitinous "third eye" in the middle of their forehead. Alhya is a Miqo'te with black hair with red highlights, light blue eyes, and a shortened tail.

The final close up, this time of Rue. The Elpis flowers take center stage, on full display in the bottom of the image. Rue's face can be seen above them. They're looking towards Alhya, who is off screen and above them. A tussle of hair covers most of Rue's right eye, but their expression is still fierce, devoted. Rue is a Garlean with dark grey hair, blue eyes, and a chitinous "third eye" in the middle of their forehead.

"I would travel to the end of the world for you. Follow you to infinity or oblivion, wherever you lead. My love, my life."

A screenshot of a man set in a black void, viewed from the top. A Garlean wearing a full black leather jacket looks up towards the viewer. Rue is a Garlean with blue eyes, short, slicked back black hair, and a chitinous third "eye" in the middle of their forehead.

The same scenario as the first, however this time the Garlean is visibly older. Rue has greying hair, bangs hanging partly over their right eye and faint hints of wrinkles can be seen. They wear a different, higher quality black jacket with red and white accents..

"Years have passed me by and time has left its mark. But I am still the same man as I always was, as different as I have become.."

#rueination

A Gpose from FFXIV of Rue Lastname. Their hands are on the side of their face, holding their head. Their eyes are wide open and their lips are parted with a surprised expression on their face. There's an effect of broken glass across the entire piece, as well as within what appears to be windows in the background. Close observers will notice the cracked glass effect is within their eyes as well. Rue is a Garlean with short, messy dark gray hair, blue eyes, and a chitinous "third eye" in the middle of their forehead.

Shattering for you..

#rueination

To sets of hands, holding each other in front of a stone wall. One set is bare while the other is gloved, and they gently hold each other's wrists and palms in cool light.

An alt angle, showing the mirrored actions of the hand touching. The background is darker, sinking into the blue watery lights of a lake.

i see your face and i know i'm alive

#xembre_adrias #rueination #rubre

A gpose of Rue in their home. Rue is sitting on a balcony, overlooking the living area. They have one leg shifted up, with their arms resting on it. The other leg is tucked beneath them. They look off towards the distance. Rue is a Garlean with short, messy graying hair, blue eyes, and a chitinous "third eye" in the middle of their forehead.

"Waiting for you.."

#rueination

#rueination

A picture of Rue, Alhya and Xembre posing in front of a huge, 4 layered cake. Two more cakes just as big can be seen in the background, though decorated differently. All three individuals are wearing culinarian outfits, all of them in shades of white, black and red. They are staring at the viewer. Alhya is situated in the middle, Rue to the left and Xembre to the right.

Un pâtissier et ses apprentis~!

A gpose of two men fighting, with one choking the other. Naevius sits below, his bare chest, arms, and face covered in blood. He's reaching for the arm of the other with one hand and his head is bent backward at an awkward angle. The other, Rue, has their right arm wrapped under Naevius' neck, their left hand holding onto their arm to steady themself. Rue has a small splattering of blood on their cheek and nose. They show the red, glowing eyes of a reaper and have an expression of glee as they struggle with Naevius. Naevius' eyes are mostly closed and he has a pained expression on his face. Rue is a Garlean with short black and gray hair, fair skin, and a chitinous "third eye" in the middle of their forehead. Naevius is a muscular Garlean with very short black hair, fair skin, body hair, and a chitinous "third eye" in the middle of his forehead.

An alternate angle of the first gpose, taking from above to show Naevius' face. He has a pained expression, with eyes nearly closed and his mouth open.

Another alternative shot, this one from below and focused more on Rue's face. Naevius' face can barely be seen from behind Rue's arms. Rue has a look of determination on their face.

And then it was done. All the pain and suffering, all the fear and loathing.. for nothing. Finished nearly as soon as it began.

"Let the past die. Kill it, if you have to. That's the only way to become what you were meant to be."

#rueination

I actually have one of the first designed iterations of Rue in a screenshot I took towards the start of MSQ. I redid the shot last year. Rue's facial features haven't changed much in the past year, but if they were shirtless, it would be a *very* different story. Hi scars and muscles.

#rueination

Had to grind some tomestones to pick up the chest piece but now Rue has the matching outfit to Alhya's..

I wasn't going to post this originally but why not, it's the last pose of the year probably.

A dark background with a barely lit Rue within it. They are naked and covered in blood, over their body and their face. They have a hand outstretched towards the viewer, barely visible in the light. Their eyes glow bright red, similarly to those of an enshrouded Reaper. Rue is a Garlean with black hair and a chitinous "third eye" in the middle of their forehead. Their body is heavily muscular but lithe. A red glow comes from the bottom right of the frame and their body is covered in smoky red wisps, adding to the surreal feeling of the shot.

A baptism in blood, devotion to power, to violence, to dominance.. Will you take on the role of disciple, to follow in the bloody footsteps of the man who stands before you?

CW: Lots of blood
#rueination

Now that I've actually done a GPose this month, I can do this.

Some months had like five incredible options I had to pick from and others had literally one pose I took all month. RIP so many landscapes I took this year.. I even rotated a few landscapes to fit lmao

I don't think Rue understood the assignment..

#rueination

A shot of Rue Lastname from the waist up. They have their right hand up to their forehead, to block out the wind and snow seen in the backdrop. They squint into the wind and a lit cigarette sits between their lips. They wear a blue jacket with red and gold accents and white fur on the sleeve. Their hair is much grayer than usual, with streaks of white. Rue is a Garlean with blue eyes and a chitinous "third eye" in their forehead.

The same scene, in a portrait orientation and zoomed out. More of the coat is visible, as well as Rue's other hand, which rests at their belt buckle.

"Lost and aimless, after so long.."

Happy Birthday, bastard. Age faster, dammit.

A shot of a man in a darkly lit space. They wear black and red robes and hold a black and red cane with gold embellishments and a wolf head. Their other hand is held outstretched towards the viewer, with sharp, red claws for nails. They have golden wings, one curled partway around their side, the other outstretched, outside the frame. Red horns sit atop their head, matching the black and red glowing eyes. Rue is a Garlean, with short black hair and a chitinous "third eye" in their forehead. They have a devilish look on their face, appropriate for the spooky season..

Beware the devil with golden wings..
For he may offer the world, the price for his gifts..
May be beyond what mere mortals can afford.

Happy Halloween~

#rueination

Rue Lastname stands waist deep in water, their top half naked. Their left arm cradles their right elbow, with their right arm pointed up, fingers on their right hand partially open. They have a lit cigarette in their mouth with a light plume of smoke coming from it. The background features trees and other greenery, rock structures, and a bright sun in the corner, reflecting rays onto the water Rue is in. Rue is a Garlean with black and grey hair, blue eyes, and a chitinous "third" eye in the middle of their forehead. Their eyelids are partially closed as they lazily look towards the viewer.

A morning smoke with a morning soak.. Care to join?

A close-up of a person, from the neck to the forehead, showing them looking at the viewer. Rue is a Garlean with short black hair, bright blue eyes, and a chitinous "third eye" in the middle of their forehead. They have a neutral expression on their face.

The same shot but forward in time. Warmer, with slightly longer hair, peppered with grey streaks. This time, Rue is smirking at the viewer.

Remade this gpose from a year ago..

Literally down to the day, Oct 6 2024 on the first one, completely coincidental.

#rueination

A shot of a Garlean man in front of the ruins of Garlemald. The shot is taken from their side, with Rue looking down towards the viewer. The hold one arm up, with a lit cigarette in between their fingers. Their hand, arm, and face is covered with blood and their eyes show the red enshroud of a reaper. Rue's tongue flicks out between their lips to lick at the blood on their face. They wear a white dress shirt with a black vest and leather straps around the arm, shoulder, and back. Their visible hand is wrapped with bandages. Their silhouette is lit with red light from the red sky behind them. Rue is a fair-skinned Garlean with black hair, a chitinous 'third eye' in their forehead and, in this shot, has the red eyes and black sclera associated with Reapers.

"I really don't like blood on the suit, but sometimes you just have to get your hands dirty.."

#rueination

A shot of Rue Lastname from a tilted angle, in a darker room. They wear a shiny blueish silver bustier, black fishnets, white wrist cuffs, and white bunny ears. The shot is from Rue's waist up and they stand in front of a plant, with a fern surrounded by flowers. Rue is a Garlean with black, gray-streaked hair, blue eyes and a third chitinous "eye" in their forehead. They wink at the viewer.

something something bunny day?

idk there was actually a mars fit for once so i figured i'd do a lazy one

#rueination

Realizing I tagged this fucking wrong

should be #rueination dammit

A shot of Rue Lastname wearing a white crop top shirt with the words "I AM A MOM AGAINST CATBOYS" on the front and a red circle with a diagonal line through the middle of a picture of a catboy with blue hair. They wear tight, black leather pants with a big studded belt. Rue is leaned against a wall, with their left hand in their pocket and their right hanging at their side, a lit cigarette between their fingers. They look up, an expression of being tired and done with whatever bullshit their dealing with on their face. Rue is a Garlean with black hair streaked with silver, blue eyes, a chitinous "third eye" in the middle of their forehead. The shot has intentionally washed out colors, to reflect a more gloomy feel to it. The background appears to be in an alleyway in Ul'dah, with brown stone buildings and a gray stone floor.

There are many ways to spot an imposter.

...some are more obvious than others.

#rueination

A closeup of Rue’s face as they attempt to reach for their partner. The expression on their face makes it obvious they are struggling.

A closeup picture of Alhya’s face as they stare at their partner. Their eyes are wide open, staring in disbelief. Tears are dripping from their face and moving upwards.

Alt shots!

#AlhyaBlahaj - #rueination - #Rulya

A picture of Rue and Alhya, seemingly falling from the sky. Both individuals have a hand reached forward, attempting to take hold of each other. In the background, a colourful galaxy and shooting stars surrounds them. A huge, dead planet sit perfectly in the middle of the shot, behind the characters.

Something keeps on
Pulling me, I
Can’t escape your
Gravity

#AlhyaBlahaj - #rueination - #Rulya

Two individuals, both currently masc-presenting, in the middle of a twirl in a forest. The taller has black hair that's falling in their face, gray highlights speckling around behind their ears, and is wearing a white dress shirt with a black vest and tie. The shorter, who is just out of frame, has white hair that obscures most of their face, but visibly dark-painted lips. Their hands are clasped together- the smaller one's gauntleted one wrapped around the knuckles of the taller individual's, who clasps over the top to lead.

A more zoomed out image of the last, showing their left arms that are outstretched. The taller Garlean has their fingers hooked around the top of the smaller's digits, thumb casing the side. The smaller's head is leaned all the way back, gazing up at tthe taller fondly as they dance. Small hints of smiles glance against the pair's lips.

no one else has a hold over me like you do.

"The Esteem had taken its hold over Melinoe, her wandering having brought her too close to Ishgard to easily keep it in check. Its target? A fellow traveler... though is it justified? Or does Meli simply crave the spilling of blood tonight..."

Took me a few days but.. Backshot Monday?? Rue's backshot on a Monday?!?

#rueination

Rue is a Garlean with blue eyes and a third chitinous "eye" in their forehead. They look at the viewer with a smirk. They wear a white dress shirt, a dark blue vest, and black tie. The shot is taken from the front, but Rue's face is pointed more to the side with their eyes looking to the viewer.

Wanted another close up shot with Rue now that I've sorted them out (for now).
