You are the Warrior of Light.

Champion of Eorzea, blessed by the Mothercrystal. You've bested tyrannical warlords, fearsome dragons, and god-like beings. You've liberated nations, aided in their restorations. You rub shoulders with their leaders and the common folk alike. With every victory, every adventure, every grand feat, your legend grows. Everyone knows your name. Everyone knows what you've done. Everyone knows what you're capable of doing.

'It's the blessing of Hydaelyn,' they say; 'the power of the Echo,' 'the unwavering soul of Azem'. Only the Warrior of Light could do what you do, only someone destined to usher change and defend the very star from destruction. Allies and enemies alike agree; there is nobody like the Warrior of Light.

But that's where they're wrong. You may be special, or chosen, or destined... but you don't feel that at all. All you feel is the pedestal you never asked to be put on. The perceived gap between you and them is staggering. They think you untouchable; so far removed from human you must be a god, or something greater. You aren't a person to them any more. You're a symbol. An idea. A concept. Intangible.

You are the Warrior of Light. And you will never be anything else.

so i hauve covid rn and i must say, American cold medicine is the absolute bees knees. You go to a UK pharmacy and they tenderly press like eight (8) paracetamol into the palm of your hand... God FORBID you're sick in France, i had to scour every pharmacy in Paris for something that wasn't HOMEOPATHIC PASTILLES. meanwhile last night i took the last of my stash of Nyquil that expired in 2019 and it was like getting hit by a fucking baseball bat (affectionate). press X to timeskip. LOVE me a cheeky little medically induced coma. you can really feel that it's a precursor to meth. i know that everything is fucking awful over there my friedns and my heart goes out to every one of you but if you need one small bright light of national pride in this time of strife please know that i envy you your cold medicine every day

i once took an american antihistamine pill just a basic one for seasonal allergies and i had to immediately lay down and while doing so i vividly hallucinated that i was a steerage passenger on the titanic resigned to my death as my cabin filled up rapidly with water. then i blacked out and when i woke up again my allergies were gone for the entire season.

one of my favorite story elements is "character way past their prime can still absolutely wreck you, leaving you to wonder just how powerful they used to be"

The protector Archetype!!

✮ Standing slightly in front of whoever they love in a crowd without noticing they do it

✮ The threat assessment that runs automatically in every new room they enter

✮ Learning everyone's allergies preferences fears exits on the first meeting just in case

✮ The voice that goes very quiet and very calm when something is actually wrong

✮ Absorbing conflict before it reaches the people they've decided to shield

✮ The violence they are capable of living quietly beside the gentleness they choose

✮ Remembering every person who ever hurt someone they loved with a precision that never fades

✮ Saying I'm fine through injuries that are not fine because worrying people feels worse than pain

✮ The tenderness that exists beneath the armor that only specific people ever get to see

✮ Being the person who stays sober at the party without being asked because someone should

✮ Noticing the shift in someone's energy before they've said a single word about what's wrong

✮ The apology they give for being overprotective that doesn't fully reach the eyes

✮ Carrying the weight of keeping everyone safe and never naming it as a weight

✮ The flaw of loving people in ways that leave no room for them to need anything from anyone else

✮ Fighting for everyone else's right to be soft while never allowing it in themselves

✮ The exhaustion visible only in private when the door is finally closed and no one needs anything

✮ Needing to be needed in a way that is both a gift and a wound

✮ The person who finally protects them back and the way that completely undoes them

✮ Having kept everyone safe for so long they don't know who they are when there's nothing to protect against

✮ Being someone's safe place and never having learned they were allowed to have one too
