She falls into a mostly animal/primal panic after the duel with Zenos in UT, but otherwise it's not something she sees as worth worrying about. #sollore
To quote KSBD:
Alphinaud... for as much as he's grown, I don't think he actually attempts to learn any cooking til he and Alisaie get involved with the Garlean Refugees.
He can follow instructions so he isn't banned from the kitchen, but he IS banned from attempting his own cooking.
#sollore
I think Sol would want to be cremated and her ashes given to friends/family to be scattered where they see fit. She's made so many connections, she feels a bit of herself should be scattered wherever they are.
She won't say it out loud but she also expects a statue in Ishgard ๐คญ
#sollore
It just isn't what she's trained in. She can do basic first aid but that's about it. As for war magic, she never had a reason to learn ๐คท if you asked her, she'd say "I never really thought about it"
#sollore
Getting fed up with having to face world ending threats, she decides to be proactive. Anything she perceives as a potential threat to peace gets the spear IMMEDIATELY.
She might use Omega as a sort of a Minority Report precog if she's feeling particularly nasty ๐ค
#sollore
Tansui ๐ถ
#sollore
I think I've said this before but she's really good with traps, both for hunting animals and people. Started as her getting her own food, went to catching poachers and Garleans with the Adders ๐
She can also make her knee make a pop sound on demand after she had it healed from a break.
#sollore
No, she's very particular about respecting chosen names, given her own history.
In the initial slip with Gulool Ja Ja she doesn't pry further. In the full reveal cutscene she gets very huffy with Iyaate. Lady, he JUST said not to call him that!
#sollore
I try to keep the PTSD realistic so usually past battles, sometimes sad memories, every now and then something bizarre (like Zenos being her baby daddy which was the WORST ever) ๐ฐ
#sollore
UHH Sol likes alcohol too much (and comes to rely on it as a coping mechanism) to really be fussed after a few weeks of paranoia about her drinks being spiked.
She sort of forgets about it ๐ค
#sollore
Funnily enough, finding a book of all things!
The romance novel she snatched from a caravan that wandered too close to Golmore completely changed her perspective on relationships and was ultimately what encouraged her to leave for Eorzea to find 'true love'.
#sollore
Sol already had a decent grasp of social graces but I think she did need to be taught the latest dressing fashion/how to eat in front of polite company (using the correct fork for the appetizer type shit).
She got pretty good at switching between refined lady and unstoppable force ๐
#sollore
S9 is the first time she hears about it but she can figure it out based on context
I think kink might be the one sexual thing she is embarrassed about and hasn't explored at all ๐
hm that might make for a good fic ๐ค
#sollore
Sol takes pain tinctures to help ease the Viera equivalent of endo and VVS. Instead of going into heat, she gets to be curled up in pain, feeling like she's gonna pass out, or just generally fatigued and needing to sleep for 12+ hours straight
based off personal experience ๐ฌ it's not fun
#sollore
Sol didn't trust her right off the bat, wasn't too impressed with the Dome or S9, didn't appreciate how cheery her teammates were in getting to know Sphene. But it kinda ended up being an Emet Selch situation. She understood, and it sucked, but there was no finding common ground.
#sollore
Out of Combat: IMO Nudity isn't a shameful thing in most of Eorzea so she'll cover up but doesn't make a big fuss about it. Shit happens.
In Combat: She's trying not to die! She's locked in and doesn't even notice til after the fight is done.
#sollore
Her chocobo Corncake! She doesn't bring him into combat at all because she treats him more as a pet than a war mount... but he gets her where she needs to be, and is very adorable and well groomed ๐
#sollore
It depends on the company. She doesn't hide that she's had/has a very active sex life at all because that's nothing to be ashamed of, but the level of detail varies.
The twins? "Yes I have sex."
Thancred/Haurch? Swapping stories, discussing techniques, nothing is hidden, hoeisms abound
#sollore
For injury: in cases where she can't patch herself up she will allow it but she'll insist others get healed first. Being a squad leader in the Adders drilled into her to accept help, but see to others first.
When she's ACTUALLY injured she'll go "omfg shut up and help im hemorrhaging"
#sollore
Miounne: Mother Miounne / Miounne when referencing her to others
While she does see Miounne as her mother, she knows there's still a boundary there. They aren't that far apart in age, maybe 10 years? Sol's never been able to drop the title, though Miounne would probably be ok with it
#sollore
Nah no feral soul, she's very anti-regulator
But for funsies if she did use one I think it would be some sort of drake ๐ค HOWEVER I don't think I've seen any in the Tural/Alexandria zones tho so in a pinch probably a Yeheheceyaa, Ceratoraptor, or a Cerule Anala
#sollore
She finds the whole concept insulting and unnatural. She's not as in tune with the Wood/Green anymore, but she inherently knows the process is bad for the wellbeing of the star.
She also knows how unhealthy it is to avoid grieving. Going as far as to wipe your own memories is NUTS to her
#sollore
I'm gonna say 'sort of'. I am interpreting 'deepest' as 'most impactful' and nothing messed her up more than her brother leaving to join the Warders when they were kids ๐ค
ONLY G'raha coming back 3ish times has eased her abandonment fears.
Eased! Not erased. Childhood trauma be like that
#sollore
Napping! She has vivid dreams and enjoys getting rest when she can. She also likes reading cheap bodice-rippers when sleep doesn't come easy.
#sollore
Regardless of who it is, almost always she's gonna hug them. She's a hugger ๐ and she does believe them! Anyone who would say that has been through hell and back alongside her.
If its someone like Estinien or Thancred (standoffish and don't readily show emotions) she'd probably tear up.
#sollore
Most likely old age with G'raha. She goes through a whole ordeal to forfeit longevity for him ๐ฅบ
Something MIGHT get her earlier though? It would be a situation of her getting in the way to protect someone else.
#sollore
She HATES the Wandering Minstrel. It started as a funny bit with me hating Extremes, but then I thought 'huh, if someone rehashed my past trauma to make it worse/'what-if' scenarios without asking me, I'd be furious at them'.
Presumably he's making bank off her stories too so that's worse
#sollore
I believe she's max height so 6'3? Makes most relationships or trysts a bit awkward LOL
#sollore
Sol wanted her DRG stone to go to the next gen, but because of Nidhogg's influence its decided its safer in a museum. Rumor has it she's angry about this and her spirit can be seen after closing.
Her DRK stone goes missing but somehow ends up back with Sid and a grown Rielle...
#sollore
Just 1 serious one before G'raha, with Haurchefant! (yes I fell into the pipeline).
Consequences- she's terrified of him leaving again in some shape or form. She's had abandonment issues since childhood, HW did NOT help that, and he did it THREE times! Only saving grace is he came back.
