Throwing together a few last minute illustrations to stuff into a new upgraded physical zine of the Mlem & Catte digital book we released a while ago. Going to be at CRX with these hopefully!
The Barking Crow Inn & Teahouse is officially open for business!
@tangledratio and I are excited to host the Grand Opening event on Friday, April 27th at 8:00 PM EST.
Looking for a change of location from the usual tavern RP? Hang out, meet and mingle with fellow adventurers, merchants, and more- as well as proprietors Velen Antares and Ratio Menai.
The Barking Crow is intended as an open RP location for any and all who wish to bring their patronage! Enjoy the exotic pleasantries of the East right in the comfort of La Noscea. Stop by for some high-end tea, spirits, sushi, and other pleasantries, including: hot baths, plush rooms, and a stunning beachfront view.
Feel welcome to hold RP events, meet other RPers, or just chill and people watch! @Mists Ward 18, Plot 30 (Balmung)
I’m really terribly sorry to have to do this, especially on such late notice, but I have been without internet since Monday, and have been desperately trying to resolve this with my ISP, but unfortunately it is now clear that I will not have it back in time for the event, so we will have to postpone the Grand Opening.
Unfortunately at this time I feel uncomfortable announcing a new date since when it gets fixed is entirely out of my control, so the new event date is TBA. I’m extremely disappointed and both of us are sorry to anyone who made plans. Please accept our apologies and we hope to have a more positive post with a new date soon. ♥

A good smug lizard that I have the honor of running around FFXIV with, @temenos-ffxiv. You can get more of this crime lord mlem in our digital zine on gumroad.
Introducing NEW and IMPROVED Redwings Enigma Front Adventure Tavern, new venture run by Lori Nasharia and Rid’to Nelha. You want a job? We have the job you want!
Enigma Front offers a cosy warm tavern enviroment for you to relax in while seaching for your next job, with new ones coming daily! From escorting across Ul’dah to hunting and a little snack on the side.
Our Tavern is nestled in the corner of the Mist over looking the beach and not just that but right next door is the lovely Oriental “Barking Crow Inn” (Link here too)
Our extremely sweet neighbors on Balmung also have a Tavern you can stop by, and were so kind to plug us. Please stop by the Mists and check out these cute venues. <3

OOC ---
I finally made a tumblr for this cat.
I’ve been RPing Ratio for some time now, and after a long break due to work and IRL things, I’ve been poking my head back into RP again. This seemed like a fun and clean reference to get started with, so here we go!
Ratio’s character is deeply involved in illegal and potentially morbid activity, and so the RP that I lean toward tends to be fairly dark as well. Mature RP (18+)
OOC communication is really important to me! I want to make sure that everything RPed is understood and consented to, and in general that everyone is achieving what they want out of the RP and having a good time. c:
I’m available on both Balmung and Mateus!
If there seems to be something I’ve missed, or you’re curious about something, just ask!
Velen Antares and I are happy to announce the opening of doors for our inn and tea house, The Barking Crow, as an open RP location for any and all who wish to bring their patronage! Enjoy the exotic pleasantries of the East right in the comfort of La Noscea. Visit for some evening tea or spirits, lounge in our downstairs smoking room and bath house, and retire for the evening in one of our many rooms available for rent.
We are also incredibly fortunate to say that we can provide service to both Balmung and Mateus. No matter where you might call your RP home, we hope you feel welcome within our doors to hold RP events, meet other RPers, or just chill and people watch. Our goal is to give back to both amazing RP communities!
Future details, menu, and event announcements to come!
Mlem & Cat, a silly collection of FFXIV drawings primarily featuring our smug lizard and miffed cat. We’ve made it, along with a NSFW version that has a few extra pages available on our gumroad for only $5 and $6 respectively!
You’ll also find a digital download version of Echoes of Blood if you were ever interested in the book but didn’t due to shipping, etc. As usual, thank you endlessly for all your encouragement and support. We hope you enjoy our dumb children as much as we do!
