thinkin about xvahl and his erenville minion of dubious canonical status

Oh my godddddddddd, I just woke up to see this in my inbox! That's so cute thank you so much! TTATT

the canonicity of the minion may be dubious but me being a sappy loser who will cry about people drawing my catte is not.

12! 23! and 27! for video gamez!!

lets go! for video gamez!!

12. A character you particularly like in the game you’re currently playing

dianthus harvestella is a robot lady in high heels (bonus: robot high heels are unisex in this game) who thinks logic is good and emotions are kinda silly but. oh. oh no. wait. SHE might be having an emotion? the only logical course of action to explore what it means to have a human heart is to open up a suggestion box and solve humans problems for them until enough data is collected that the secrets of the human heart unlocks - this is a perfect plan

shes very good

other good harvestella character

unicorn

23. A “Wow” moment of awe

the classic "glados voice drops a little" moment in portal, or maybe glados reactivating in portal 2, or when glados-

*i am forcefully dragged away from the keyboard*

27. A game you love the atmosphere of

i love minish cap so much, its one of the zeldas ive replayed the most

its got such a nice feel to it and the contrast in how you view the world as human-sized and minish-sized is So Good, i mean

small boot big

8. shielding the other one with their body 👀

send a prompt

"Warrior, a moment of your time —"

"Please, would you stop by —"

"— For my research —"

"Pray listen to my suggestion —"

"On the topic of Dynamis —"

The voices are more akin to a tidal wave than individual inquiries now and they keep growing in number — the sound presses against the Warrior's ears and rattles around their skull. It feels like a physical sensation and they feel as if they lifted a hand to the side of their head it would come away bloodied.

There's no response that will satisfy everyone clamoring for a piece and fear has started to set in.

It's their first excursion outside after Ultima Thule without the Scion escort that everyone had insisted upon and now they understand why it had been necessary, hand twitching toward the weapon at their side —

Except their weapons are back at the rooms, and Sharlayan isn't at war. It would solve nothing here.

The Warrior swallows thickly, eyes flicking from scientists to reporters to gawking bystanders and then down to the ground, finding it tilted into an unpleasant spin.

It was a mistake to go outside alone.

"Enough!"

Blessed shade is cast over the Warrior's form, the boom of this voice slicing clean through all the others and silencing the whole group in one fell swoop. The Warrior could cry with relief, hunched over as Estinien steps in front of them, radiating hostility.

"I was led to believe that Sharlayan was peaceful and civilized?" They can picture the raised brow on Estinien's face as he speaks, his words clipped with the effort it must take not to shout. "This is not how you treat a recovering patient. No more questions."

Thankfully, with minimal arguing, they all disperse. Estinien stays in position, shielding the Warrior as effectively here as in battle and maybe it should be humiliating but it mostly feels — safe. Familiar.

Only once they are alone does he turn and let his shoulders sag a bit, placing a large hand on the Warrior's shoulder.

"We told you not to go out alone."

There's no heat behind the words however and the Warrior musters a smile, feeling it wobble.

"Thank you, Estinien."

"No worries," he sighs, grip tightening a smidge before he lets go. "I know what it's like."

1. Why did they pick their first class/job? What about the job they main now? &/or 5. What is the first impression most people have of them? Is it different when they get to know them? !!

thank u for the ask @toadmancer !!! ;A; <3

5. What is the first impression most people have of them? Is it different when they get to know them?

answered here!

1. Why did they pick their first class/job? What about the job they main now?

— In his youth, Ancel was quite privy to lancing before being forced to settle on the blade during his time in the Temple Knights; further, he realized his capacity for magic when he left Ishgard. Combine this with his personal virtues, and it's kinda no wonder he became a free Paladin!!! It comes as naturally as breathing to him, and it's definitely his main, go-to job to this day - he's not one to stray away from what he knows when it comes to combat.

Something to note as well is that Ancel reeeally wanted to become a Dragoon as a child. Like, forever. But his father actively prevented him from pursuing it. (his dad is not exactly. the coolest guy in the world but that’s its own can of worms LMAO;)

BUT because of this, I was thinking about how Ancel might begin to lament his lost potential by the end of EW, and entertain reacquainting himself with the lance - literally just lettin himself be a dude with a stick again. Still workin the deets of that one out though hfdgkds 💦💦

NON-BINARY THREE-HEADED DRAGON MANGAKA AND SOLE HEIR TO ONE OF THE THREE BIG ORGANIZED CRIME FAMILIES IN ATLANTIS

xavion is a huge nerd and wants to keep drawing manga full-time, but feels pressured to get into the family business. currently they are going to magic uni and is trying to Figure Things Out while also being the head of the schools new manga club

also he can unhinge his jaw like a snake, has lived a few years in japan, has a butler/body guard she sees as an older brother (the butler acts as a go-between for their manga editor), is a gamer™, was born as an egg and hatched two years later

12 and/or 29?

Thank you for the ask friend~! ^w^

12. Is there an allied society they favor and frequent?

X'vahl considers the Loporrits good friends so he quite enjoyed helping them set up their little creative corner on Mare Lamentorum, he was also really impressed by their radio show and how they're helping connect and bring hope and happiness to so many people all over the star after The Final Days were averted.

29. Alright. What do they think of those flying furry bastards that have appeared in every aspect of the realm (Moogles)?

X'vahl thinks the moogles are.... okay! He neither loves nor hates them. His encounters with them have been a mixed bag so he's come to realize that moogles are as varied in personality as any other person he's met.
