Not me answering asks from.....many months ago ^^;; Thank you @tallbluelady (for some reason I can't tag @raynshyu??) This had me stumped for ages because I had never thought about food in-game other than stat and xp boosts but letting it ferment a bit actually let some rare Wyn lore bubble up XD
Muireann's favourite food is mochi with mun-tuy bean filling. It's not exactly a dish that can be bought easily as it is something Illiette and Haname (@azure-dragonsinger ) devised. Her attempts to recreate it herself (or rather trying to explain the sweet-but-savoury-and-ever-so-slightly-bitter flavour profile she remembered to her friends at the Bismark prior to ARR starting) have all ended in disappointment.
Wyn's favourite food is sweet & sour anything but she's particularly partial to monkfish. Fried scampi is a close second so it depends on how long she's willing to wait.
Sami's favourite food is ice-cream - especially honeycomb ice-cream with frozen bananas chopped over it and some caramel sauce. Extremely sweet and cold, but I figure she finds cold food and drink more comforting as I'm imagining her living somewhere on the outskirts of Thanalan.
Already answered for Muireann so going for Rammthota - she doesn't have strong feelings (hugs are hugs, and what is spooning but hugs you sleep in).
That said she tends to be the big spoon more often than not, there's something about a 7'3' buff lady with a kind heart and fun fish facts that make people want to sleep in her arms.
A little update is in order! As of patch 6.1 I’m up to date with MSQ, role quests, normal raids, and alliance raids. This blog is not spoiler free but I try to tag major patch spoilers with “(expansion name) spoilers” and include patches in that (so patches for 6.X will be covered with “Endwalker spoilers” for example). I also generally tag posts with the relevant expansion “ffxiv: (expansion name)”
This is not an RP blog but I am very attached to my WoLs and the shared canon I’ve made with my friends, plus I love all the different ask and tag posts and talking about my OCs. I’ve started to dip my toes into writing fics but at the moment they are uhhh for my groupchats only.
I have 3 WoLs I’m more actively playing, though Muireann is my main and the one I’ll mostly be talking about!
About Tag / Screenies and art of My Gorl
Name: Muireann Uais
Title: torn between “of the Seventh Dawn” and “Finder of False Gods” as her in game title. Headcanon title is “Godsbreaker”.
Battle class(es):
Arcane Historian (mashup of SMN and SCH)
Bladesinger (mashup of BRD and DRK)
Aspects of MNK used in both custom classes if enemies get too close
Profession(s):
Goldsmith, primary income is from patented designs sold through Eshtaime’s Aesthetics and she will occasionally take commissions.
Adventurer, specifically a freelance adventurer who is not employed by the Scions though she is affiliated with them.
Family:
Silvaire Canaux (father)
Illiette Canaux (mother)
Raer Angathril (Muireann adopted him as her big brother, belongs to @azure-dragonsinger)
“Miss Hanna” (adopted maternal figure, Raer’s mother, also belongs to @azure-dragonsinger)
General Info:
Muireann was born in Proud Creek, North Shroud after her parents fled Werlyt before it came under Garlaen occupation. She grew up in the small, primarily Duskwight community that had reclaimed the ruins there (this community is not based in canon, I just think it’s a neat idea)
She has been fascinated by stories and songs of adventurers since she was a child between that and not being able to play with other children 'normally’ due to her health issues she was something of a lonely child and never bothered to develop a proper sense of self-preservation.
Muireann is not the name given by her parents, she has an awkward relationship with her ‘childhood’ name and has not been called by it since she started journeying around on her own shortly after the Calamity. She keeps that name a secret and only one person outside of her listed family knows it.
She is not the Warrior of Light but does have the Echo. Hers manifests in the ability to convey her emotions and general intentions to animals and understand theirs in return in addition to the regular flashbacks and protection from tempering.
She is incredibly protective of her closest friends and following the events of ARR and HW she develops an intense fear of losing people and not being able to protect them. She has relatively frequent nightmares about it and it was her primary cause for pursuing greater and greater power. That is maybe changing in light of the most recent patch with a return to seeking out adventure and knowledge for the fun of it.
Despite her sometimes debilitating fear of losing others, she still has not developed much of a sense of self preservation, much to Selene’s annoyance.
She is quick to judge, quick to anger, and can be slow to forgive - particularly if her friends/family have been hurt in any way.
I ship Muireann with so many NPCs there are so many fics please send help.
Going to put Wyn under the cut and leave Sami out (for now) because while I love my alt gals, they aren’t nearly as developed ^^;
About tag / Screenies
Name: Rammthota Sundwilfwyn, or Wyn for short
Title: TBC
Battle Class(es): WAR, NIN. No custom classes as of yet
Profession:
Ship cook, Wyn worked on a ship before trying her hand as an adventurer and is a somewhat decent cook and fisher. Since she switched to the land she’s picked up botany to add to her repertoire.
Freelance guard, Wyn’s first few jobs were ad hoc, guarding shipments and stalls for Faezghim and Iron Thunder before she got referred up to Baderon for more regular work.
Adventurer, is the newest addition, but it’s been working out well and has formed a small party with some other adventurers she kept running into.
Family: TBC
General Info:
Wyn was born and grew up on a pirate ship and has known how to swing an axe from a young age. Improving her skills was one of the bigger draws of moving to Limsa.
Wyn is largely oblivious to flirting and has very strong himbo energy.
She’s trying to convince the Lalafel she’s been adventuring with to let her throw him into a group of enemies so he can do the neat book-magic explosions.
what is their romantic preference or inclination? (For both)
Thank you @tallbluelady ^^
Muireann is bi, no major preference in any direction but they can't be too serious, if the person isn't down for Cahoots on some level it's not going to work out.
Rammthota (Wyn) as far as I can tell, is an ace lesbian. Very oblivious and extremely easily flustered once she realises that Flirting is happening (and that she is the subject of Attraction).
Currently Watching: I spent all day yesterday watching a television adaptation of The Outsider by Stephen King. It's on HBO and stars Ben Mendelsohn and Cynthia Erivo and I really enjoyed it. Prior to that, I spent a week binge watching True Detective.
Currently Reading: Besides my own silly writing as I go through and add more, I'm finishing up Book Lovers by Emily Henry right now and I'm looking to start either Before I Let Go by Kennedy Ryan next or Once More with Feeling by Elissa Sussman.
Latest Obsessions: My grocery store across the street now has canned taro boba tea. It's not as good as what you'd get from an actual boba shop. It does, however, hit the spot and I like to have it as a little treat to reward my goblin self for getting through the day. I've also been walking a lot lately and I know it sounds silly to be obsessed with that but I was told I wasn't allowed to exercise for a year and then, when I was cleared, I got sick and didn't want to do anything at all so I'm really obsessed with taking that little bit of "me time" where I feel like I'm resetting and getting back to things that I love doing and taking long walks was always a form of escapism for me so it's nice to have that back.
I'm tagging, no pressure, my beloved @catepagewrites. And anybody else who would like to do this, I think it would be fun.
