I think my biggest question is why do the characters feel bad for Jax he’s pretty much been abusing them cause 2 people to die and has had no redeeming qualities in the show

I get wanting your audience to sympathise but if you want your characters to sympathise you need to give the a reason

[ask-atof]

I think the point is that all people, even hideously shitty ones, deserve someone to mourn them.

they don't deserve everyone to mourn them - the rest of the gang helping out was more in support of pomni than jax, and she thanks them for that specifically - but they deserve someone.

(and, if you notice, gangle did not participate at all, nor was she expected to. that's an important detail.)

♠ (Have fun)

Ariadne tilts her head and thinks for a moment. “I... don’t know if I’ve ever felt that way about anyone? I’ve never let myself get too close to people, so I don’t know if feelings like that have ever gotten the chance to form...” A pause. “Idris Elba is really hot though, I mean wow. If I could kiss him without immediately dying of shame, I think I would.”

✌Who would you most like to go to jail with?

“Ahhh... um.” Ariadne fiddled with the hem of her jacket. “Probably my old boss, Dr. Sheppard? He used to use some of our funding to buy supplies and stuff for the local Planned Parenthood after it got defunded. Had a real crusade about it too. I fixed the budget books for him.”

Primal prompts

In an effort to get to know more people (as I realised I’ve only scratched the surface of the FFXIV community) I’ve come up with some prompts for your characters based (loosely) on the primals, either from what they represent or their well-known mechanics.

I’m hoping to come across a load of new blogs so please reblog away! Everyone who does reblog will get a prompt from me, so please tag me so I can read your answers!!

Here we go:

Ifrit - what makes your character angry or gets them really fired up?

Titan - is your character fairly grounded? Do they ever need to be put in their place?

Garuda - does your character have anything to hide from or anything to hide?

Good King Moggle Mog XII - has your character got many friends? Do they have a large social group or do they prefer the company of a few individuals?

Leviathan - how observant is your character? Can they see/predict what is going to happen? Or do they let events unfold without thinking on it too much?

Ramuh - is your character afraid of thunder or storms? Do they prefer to stay inside in bad weather?

Bahamut - does your character crave power? Do they desire to dominate or be feared?

Shiva - how does your character react to strangers? Are they welcoming? Do they regard others with suspicion?

Odin - if your character was to be judged on the life they have led so far, would the scales tip toward good or bad?

Bismarck - does you character like to travel? Do they have a favourite place?

Ravana - how proficient is your character in combat? Are they a master of many arts or do they have a preferred class/job?

Alexander - is your character self-driven? Or are they often prompted by others?

Meet Amy Willow! She's kind of lonely and shy sometimes, but is 101% neurotypical! We promise! Here, watch us overdub her non-verbalized thoughts to include pop-cultural references, sarcasm, and puns!

She nicknamed her Absol “Slicey” :D

♫ - What kind of music do they enjoy?

(totally forgot i had this ask, whoops)

Ariadne enjoys individual songs rather than music styles, although some styles were encouraged(/permitted) in her household more than others while growing up. Country and pop were played often. Blues was practically outlawed. Which was a shame because kid!Ari gentle, continuous blues rhythms were quite nice, and most country music and nearly all of pop grated on her ears and brain.

However, Ariadne noticed at one point that high-pitched bells and flutes brought her out of panics quickly, somehow, so before she got access to medication for her illnesses she literally used music to self-medicate. Mostly classical and neo-classical, with a few choice bits of electronica mixed in.

An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works

She reached for her prescription bottle with jerky movements. Two hundred tablets fit inside, and she got the bottle about three weeks ago, so probably twenty were taken already. A hundred and eighty pills, at one a day as prescribed. No more than six months until she ran out, and then...

I can't go back to that.

Whoops, I forgot to link this here!

Brienne kept her face open and soft. She did not want to scare Ari off. Her cheeks were covered in tear-stains and her eyes were so big. What, was Ariadne afraid she would suddenly think she was disgusting, push her away, and run for it? Ari hadn’t done that to her, and she’d certainly done something worth being disgusted about. Ari could have a hug for as long as she wanted it, and then some, because in truth Brienne was a huggy nut and it’d been ages since she’d gotten the cuddles she lived off of.

But, uhm…”Ari? Can we move to the bed? My butt hurts. The floor is hard.” She grinned sheepishly.

You’re asking me?? Ariadne’s throat clutched when she attempted to speak, and all that came out was a quiet croaking noise. Nonverbal now. Great. She closed her eyes in dismay, but Brienne gently repeated the question, and she found herself able to at least nod slightly.

In a process that caused Ariadne to cringe with every movement and jostle, Brienne drew them both shakily upward. Ari’s knees trembled and she clung to Brienne’s waist, her hands twisted up in Bri’s jacket tightly enough to cramp.

Ariadne was abruptly, utterly exhausted.
