This was an art piece that my beloved @holyja got commissioned for me by the always effervescent @mafumafuriah (who can also be found on twitter) featuring my Warrior of Light, Serella Arcbane, as the Queen of Cups. It's absolutely breathtaking, thank you so much for taking the time to draw her in such loving detail, Mafumafuriah!!!! She looks absolutely breathtaking!!!
Apologies for those who don't want to read about me getting schmoopy about my girlfriend for a bit, I'll toss all of that below the cut, but TL;DR my girlfriend commissioned this for me and I love them a lot okay thank you for coming to my Ted Talk
They gifted this for me on our first anniversary a few months back, I just hadn't wanted to make a post before I could give them their gifted commission in return!
I wasn't prepared for a lot of things with Hyana- this commission, falling in love, being friends on a more personal level. Hell, us talking in private at all, because I'm normally such a recluse otherwise.
If you had told me two years ago that my crush was actually requited, and I was just being stupid? I would have laughed. And laughed. And laughed.
But now you're visiting me, presently napping on my bed and hogging all of Rhalgr's attention and love (which, of course you are. of course he loves you. didn't I tell you he would? anyone would.) and I feel like the luckiest person in the world.
You're probably going to grumble about how much of a dork I am for this, and that's fine because you forgot to get a nerf gun, so I'm safe from retaliation for now, but even if you hit me with a thousand thousand nerf darts for it, that's okay. I'll still hold your hand and laugh and tell everyone how much I love you and how wonderful you are.
Happy anniversary, my love. The first of many, many to come!
Rothe momentarily cradled his finger before jabbing it back toward Hyana.
“Did you just bite me?!”
"Keep sticking your finger in my face and I'll do it again."
He recoiled, met her eyes, and weighed his choices.
If he showed up tomorrow in gauze, not a single chef would believe their part-time help chomped down on his hand. It wouldn’t be the first time injuries forced him behind the register, either. The product of his last ordeal and subsequent reassignment—an intricately detailed cinnamon log house—was still on display.
Besides that, apparently adorning fingers with tiny crowns (after exhausting their cinnamon stock) was very frowned upon within the kitchen. Jossy was particularly appalled when she observed him wiggling his hands in an attempt to make the foil shimmer. She prided herself on being the sole supplier of tiny crowns in all of Eorzea. As if demand hadn’t plummeted since the end of the war. Ishgardians celebrated aught but successful sorties.
He was innovating the forgotten trinkets, dammit.
Neverless. He did not favor the idea of being banned from the kitchen. He could not cook. He would be doomed to boredom.
Hyana watched as he gingerly raised his hand toward her face, flicked her square in the forehead, and ran as fast as he could towards Hawker’s Alley, hoping to get as lost as an almost six-fulm hyur with bright red hair could get lost.
not to mention that in addition to all the other bullshit yuki's portrayal of both bisexuality and polyamory is so uninformed and overexaggerated that it's literally fucking offensive, signed, a person who is bi and poly irl
This is a really important addition to this thread about Jurien/Yuki.
