Fanfest 2026 in Berlin was great =w= I got to meet up with so many friends that I haven't seen in a while. At times we were 30+ people in our group and it was great :3c while I am certainly exhausted, due to the lack of sleep, haha, I wouldn't want it any other way.

I also finally got to give my friends their little gift that I prepared! (Big shoutout to Endsinger13 on etsy/instagram she made this possible and was an absolute sweetheart to work with)

It's always a blast to meet like minded beans. Also seeing so many people for the sticker exchange, just wow xD

Oh, they also played my favorite song in the Primals concert, which is Rise aaaaaaaa always amazed with the time stop and everyone partaking in it.

Now, with Fanfest over, I will probably get more active here again - once I caught up on some sleep xD

Look at that cute face, he can do no harm-..

Oh shit-?!

Well, appearance is one thing. Character and behavior another.

As a small side information, Satien is Chaotic Good and Reah is Chaotic Neutral xD

[nyarumi-nyan]

Who is that...?

Cillien had already redirected his full attention toward Sagan’s horns. With the grave concentration of a scholar making a historic discovery, he reached out and brushed his little hands over the golden scales.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa thank you @mimble-sparklepudding Q w Q this means a lot!

✦ Welcome to my little corner of Eorzea! ✦

Hi! I'm Mimble (he/him). Although I in-game I also answer to Humble (my other OC), and on Discord you will see me going by #Bear.

This blog is mostly dedicated to Final Fantasy XIV, and is guaranteed to contain some degree of the following:

✦ Lore and writing about my own OCs.

✦ Vanilla Gposes and screenshots.

✦ Sharing OC Ask Lists and Character Development Ideas.

✦ Highlighting and celebrating other creators in the community.

✦ Boosting FFXIV events and community projects.

✦ Supporting and encouraging new or less confident creators.

✦ Occasional reblogs of art, memes, and pretty scenery.

✦ General silliness.

My sideblog @sparkleblogging is a place where I reblog other people's gposes, writing and posts. I try to ensure there's a good balance between celebrating established creators and highlighting smaller and newer blogs.

About me

I've been playing FFXIV since about 2022 and both my characters are currently on Chaos-Moogle (EU).

This blog is very much LGBT-friendly (I am gay myself), but equally welcoming to heterosexual and cisgender bloggers and OCs.

I am extremely ADHD, and even when I remember to take my pills it still impacts me heavily in my day-to-day life, including on Tumblr - so please try to be patient with me. I also have Dyspraxia and Dyscalculia, because I apparently like collecting developmental disabilities with Ds in them...

Whilst I don't generally go into detail about my own political views and I think DNI lists are somewhat counterproductive, there are things with which I prefer not to engage. I am generally left-leaning, although certainly something of a moderate by Tumblr standards.

Whilst this is not a particularly NSFW blog, it is not intended for those under 18.

About my OCs

I primarily produce writing and gposes involving my two WoLs. Their stories range from slice-of-life adventures to dramatic MSQ-adjacent nonsense, and I quite like talking about their relationships and backstories, as well as general worldbuilding. They technically occupy alternate and distinct versions of the MSQ.

Mimble Sparklepudding: Dunesfolk White Mage descended from the mageocracy of Amdapor. Neutral/Chaotic Good. Enjoys helping others, showing off and generous breakfast options. Looks harmless, but is, in fact, staggeringly powerful and highly dangerous.

Humble Soapstone: Hellsguard Warrior and Blacksmith. Terrifying rage-fuelled avatar of destruction on the battlefield, but the shyest and gentlest of giants everywhere else. Lawful/Neutral Good. In the very early stages of a relationship with G'raha Tia. Looks intimidating, but is, in fact, extremely sweet and kind.

Asks, tags, and questions about them are always welcome - although it may sometimes take me a while to respond.

“Is it that bad?” Sagan asked quietly. Reah nodded and in that same instant the child’s legs gave way beneath him. He sagged against the Seeker, who caught him before the boy could hit the ground. Reah hoisted the Elezen lad against himself and checked for the pulse.

Tell me about a FFXIV fandom project or creative work outside of Tumblr that you’d like to highlight – whether yours or somebody else’s. It could be a AoW story, a comic, a blog on a different site, a carrd, a cosplay or something else entirely.

Thank you for the ask - I would be delighted to highlight a certain fandom project outside of Tumblr.

Did you know that Nyarumi of @nyarumi-nyan on this very website, is actually working on an illustrated novel? Like an actual novel. With chapters and artwork and punctuation and everything.

Alongside the equally talented Yokufo, they are working hard on realising their shared dream of a Boys Love Novel set within the FFXIV universe and you can find Chapter One here.

Now personally I very much like boys, I very much approve of love, and I very much enjoy a good novel, so this is a project which I wholeheartedly support. But even if it's not necessarily your cup of tea, please try to give any encouragement you can to this fantastic project - hopefully it will inspire more people to follow their creative dreams.

You can find the Patreon here, which includes a Free Supporters Tier, as well as paid options if you want to add a little extra support.

You can find Yokufo's Bluesky page here. And Nyarumi's here.

And if you're going to the upcoming Berlin Fanfest then look out for them - you might even get a sticker!

[nyarumi-nyan]

Thank you so much @mimble-sparklepudding Q w Q This means so much to me and Yokufo!!

4. What was your OC's childhood dream? Is that still their dream? If it has changed, why did it change and what's their new dream?

Hewwo @lal-ffxiv >w<

Let's get started with Satien, shall we? :3

I think Satien generally isn't a daydreamer, or someone who has big dreams. Which also shows in his childhood dream, which circles around the wish to sustain himself. To live a life where he didn't need to hunger anymore. If he dared to dream more it would include traveling the world. But frankly, Satien is someone who doesn't dream big. He is humble.

Amusingly enough, Reah's dream as a child was to learn about the many different cultures which merchants visiting his Father's tribe shared in the evenings at a fireplace. They made the world sound so vibrant, the cultures of other lands sounded fascinating.

It's amusing to me how this is one thing he actually has in common with Satien xD While otherwise these two couldn't be any more different in their character and preferences.
