I'm not saying I've abandoned this, but I'm definitely more active over where there is greener grass and bluer skies, if you catch my drift.

Obssessed with Destiny bc you have the equivalent of a wizard and a knight bickering abt when was the last time one of their SPACESHIP got service. They're gay.

I'm pretty sure it's stated in game that chocobo are bred to accommodate different race sizes, so I thought it would be fun to design them as different breeds. Click to read more!

Standard bred chocobo are of medium size and the most common. They're largely preferred by hyur and are considered the most versatile. While Lalafell prefer a miniature chocobo as a mount, many farmers also raise them as livestock guardian animals for their flocks.

Miqo'te often breed a slightly smaller type of chocobo which are built for speed and often seen in racing. Two popular breeds for elezen include a swan-like, elegant bird as well as an Ishgardian breed with thicker feathers (often used to stuff expensive pillows)

The breed favored by Au Ra vary greatly in size like auri themselves. While omnivorous, this breed also tends to have a higher taste for meat. Viera bred chocobo are the rarest breed, with lithe legs and a long beak for survival in heavily wooded areas.

Hrothgar and Roegadyn often prefer large, draft breeds of chocobo. Hrothgar bred chocobo have the rare ability to turn their heads 180 degrees, and Roe chocobo are also commonly used for chocobo carriages.

Just some fun little headcanons, I hope you enjoy them :)

Yes, I'd like to order one Shoebill Destrier please!

Breakfast

[cassieoctavia]

So, Destiny 2 ramblings:

I fell way behind on Into the Light, and missed pretty much all of the last week. But I got on this afternoon to grind out a couple more weapon quests, and managed to get Luna's Howl, Mountaintop, and Forbearance right at the last minute.

Went to the Hall to trade in my Trophies.

Got no Lunas, no Forbearance, and the two Mountaintops that did drop were (according to light.gg) Not Great. So yeah, hopefully it won't be too tricky to get better rolls, but at least I have the curated ones?

Since it's Pride month I have a question for all the muns, their WoLs and OCs:

Are you and/or they apart of the LGBTQIA+ community and if you're comfortable sharing, where do you stand?

Allies are included too! Don't be shy!

Happy Pride Month everyone! Remember 4 months ago when the CEO of this platform harassed and chased a trans woman off this website just for posting her transition timeline, then chased her to other social media platforms to continue harassing her, and threatened to call the FBI if she continued disputing the multiple dubious terminations of her blogs that did not violate tumblr's terms of service in any way? And despite tumblr staff insisting that the CEO was acting against their interests, the broad transmisogyny evident in the site's culture and moderation policy has still not been adequately addressed?

[lakemojave]

Remember that staff is continuing to nuke the blogs of trans women even after all of this. Remember this post when they call this site the queerest place on the internet again this month
