treat yourself with the same kindness and understanding youd offer to an ancient wizard
i didn't realize this would be a problem when I posted this but some of you don't have the respect and admiration for an ancient wizard that I assumed would be more inherent and universal

To @iron-sparrow:
As someone who was born, raised, currently lives, and will die at the equator, spring will always be a foreign concept. Spring was something I read in Enid Blyton books, of hours-long showers where children stayed home, looking forward to frolicking in flowers after. The Lunar New Year celebrates the transition of seasons I do not experience firsthand.
When the grass is always green, when the rain stops after a brief but violent storm only to start again tomorrow, when fruits follow some vague idea of a 'season' but can be bought almost anytime, the idea of looking forward to a single season for rebirth is absurd. Every day the land grows. I live in a state of perpetuity.
Perhaps that is my message: Don't look forward to a single time frame when hope is eternal. Wishes need not be fresh. Take as long as you need and want. It is forever.
Don't even wait for the rain to stop. You are fire and you will burn stronger than any attempt to extinguish it. I think...everyone here knows this.
Blaze your trail, leave your mark. The wind will carry your ashes.
And I will see hope shine eternal, long after seasons past.
So, my family all play the critically acclaimed mmorpg Final Fantasy XIV with free trial up to Stormblood and level 70 with no restrictions! And the dungeons in DT gave my sister seizures and we haven't been able to play since. She's still recovering. In the meantime, I have acquired Easy Eyes and I've been hammering away at the dungeons and trials of DawnTrail to make this shit actually safer for her to play. And obviously I'm finna share that hard work with all the migraineurs and epileptics that want to get through the game.
My plan is to work backwards (I started on the EW dungeons today) and get all the dungeons and trials safer. The norm and alliance raids are gonna take A While, mostly because I have to run them with people instead of the trust and there's so many more effects to sort through.
In the meantime, if you didn't know, EasyEyes is a plugin for Dalamud (ie it's a mod). You can import presets into it to block all the vfx in the preset without having to run the duty and manually block everything yourself. That's obviously not safe, hence me doing it. You can find it on xma (Safer DT Dungeons and Trials). It's a zip folder with each dungeon and trial labelled as individual presets. You just have to hit import and pick them, super easy.
Please be aware that it's super difficult to turn off vfx in the background, and I left a lot of small vfx untouched for aesthetic, but I very much took out everything glaringly obvious, or that my sister explicitly complained about, and more. Some of the vfx turned off are going to make it harder for you to position yourself to avoid attacks, so please keep that in mind, but safety trumps a healer's feelings!
I'll post each expac as I finish them and I sincerely hope more people are able to get back into the game because of my work.

Let's face it - I'm cute 🎶
Meanwhile, in Alexandria... "City of Electrope Dreams, they call it. A pulsing utopia soaked in purple iridescent awe and holographic joy, where every need is filled and every hunger sated. "Makes me laugh. Brighter the shell, the darker the underbelly. When life itself is currency and you're overdrawn at the soul bank, and ya fall and hit those streets and and learn electrope is as hard a landing as any stone, that's when ya know there are corners of this burg even neon light don't reach. "Name's Amethyst, or Ames for short. I belong to these tarnished alleys. You got a problem—missing property, missing loved one, sorta stuff the tin cans can't be bothered with—might be I'm your girl, if you've got the creds and I'm halfway sober. "Cross me, mind, and we'll find out just how deep your soul reserves go, one by one."
happy birthday month @lilbittymonster ! saw your request and thought it was so cute, so here's my offering. <:
New profile portrait for Yein's twin, the wet hag most know as Sacheo of Ashes. Please enjoy.
sometimes i need to remind myself that i'm writing fanfiction for free and i'm allowed to have a shitty sentence or two
so many of my fics have remained buried in my drafts because i wrote the cool scenes first and then didn’t have “connective tissue”. but i’m freeing myself from that and just adding shitty “and then a week passed” or “they got to their destination” connections and just posting them and it’s so! freeing! try it!
I can't tell you how many times I've agonized over a scene transition, only to fill in the missing space with, like, a sentence.
Write the parts you wanna write and then go in and slap scotch tape over the rest of it.
Sometimes when I’m feeling self conscious I’ll go and pull a book off my shelf to see how whichever author handled time transitions, and it’s really REALLY common that it’s just, like, “October came and went.” And that’s SO freeing. Just fast forward. Just do it.
It really does work.
Plus if the transition or passage of time isn't interesting to write.. it's probably not going to be interesting to read either. Just skip it.
Also yeah who cares about a shitty sentence or two even aside from that, honestly. Done is better than perfect.
Add realism to your fantasy stories by having characters from different backgrounds struggle to pronounce each others' names.
"My name is [low guttural sound] but I don't want to hear you butcher it. So you may call me She Who Arises With The Cold Mountain Sun."
"...Is that what your name really means? All that in just one word?"
"Yes. If you stress the wrong syllable it comes out as 'She Who Coldly Wakes Up The Mountain Sun', or 'The Cold Woman Who Wakes The Mountain Sun', and you will not call me that."
"Oh, huh. Could we just call you Mountain Sun, for short?"
"Hmh. It's boastful, almost bordering on blasphemy, but it is flattering. I accept it."
if you make that female character less goth as a sign of her ~healing~ or ~improving her life~ I will kill you
make her MORE gloriously dark and over-the-top. she's growing into herself. she's getting comfortable being who she wants to be. do you see the vision. I am crying and throwing things

Painting this dark terrifies me.
It’s this new painting approach I’m still trying to experiment with toward something that feels dreamy and moody. Watercolor isn’t’ the most forgiving when painting this dark, but maaaan it turned out pretty dope in the end!

Practice your Eorzean!
Saw this post and thought hey! Now that's a great idea! So I did it. On the left is the in game font, and on the right is what I'm calling "Simplified Eorzean", where I took the same theory as when you're teaching a kid how to write. My goal was to simplify the shapes and strokes as much as possible, while still making it the same letter. This way it (should) be easier to practice disregarding the rules and making it in your own handwriting! Under the cut I've placed a stroke/letter guide, and also a blank sheet(With some optional prompts) for practice. Happy writing!
EDIT: Was brought to my attention this is difficult for some people to read- Thank you! So I've added some (hopefully) more accessible versions of every image under the cut as well. Please let me know if you have trouble/what ways I can make it more readable!
