PSA

I am not here to yuck anybody’s yums! Interpretations of canon, headcanons, ships, kinks, etc.: you do you! I like interpreting and analyzing and contextualizing things I like. That does not mean my takes are good or correct or right for you. I like seeing other people’s takes because all of us bring our own lens to the things we interpret.

Our mileage will vary. This is fine. Chase your bliss. I am here to vibe and collect things like a little Anxious dragon.

OC Boundaries

SFW visual Fanart: Yes! I will cry (positive)! Want to depict our OCs being friends? GO FORTH, I WILL CRY MORE (VERY POSITIVE)!!

NSFW visual Fanart: Maybe! If it's something depicted in my fics, go for it! Anything else, please ask!

Writing: Please do not write my OCs unless it's a brief cameo. Please feel free to ask though!

RP: Not right now. I used to RP a lot, and still do from time to time, but my social anxiety often renders RPing a negative experience for me unless I know my RP partner(s) already. Who knows? This may change in the future.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Fic Corner

I write a lot of XIV fic, much of it featuring my main WoL, Kyler Drake. Some of it I'm even rather proud of. If you are interested, I made a Reading Guide as a place to get started! As always tho, you do you and mind the tags! ♡

Although I know there is no fully preventing it, I have locked all of my ao3 works to guard against AI scraping. NEVER use anything of mine with AI.

Please never hesitate to absolutely obliterate my notifications, regardless of platform. In Ao3's case, I hoard every kudo and comment like a serotonin- and dopamine-starved dragon. They really make my day!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

...and of course -_-;;

I am fundamentally against monetization of every skill and passion and art form, but unfortunately I live in a capitalist hellscape. So if for some reason you like my work and wanna kick me a tip, you may do that here.

I'll edit this post as I want and as time allows. Thanks for stopping by!!

in my heart the way the WoL is frequently dehumanized (whether elevated to a hero or reduced to a living weapon), how much their friends and allies love them, all the shiptease with almost every major NPC, and Zenos's obsession with them as his "mirror" are all kind of the same thing, you feel me?

you can't choose how people love you, and being loved so intensely by so many people is sometimes a gift, sometimes a burden, sometimes a threat.

Emet-Selch really loved you so much that even when you weren't deemed worthy of remembrance he still put just as much care and love into preserving his memory of you as he did everyone else, possibly even more. And when the end comes and you have to destroy him and he finally almost sees you as his equal for the first time in thousands of years the only thing he asks is that you do the same for him.

"Remember us. Remember that we once lived."

Remember me, and that for all these years, I remembered you.

I understand why some people don’t like the scions that’s fine. But I also don’t understand people who, unless they are deliberately rewriting the story to fit this narrative, frame the scions as using the WoL maliciously? I suppose I understand the impetus to make the most tragic little weesnaw who has ever walked hydaelyns fair plane and yes the scions DO treat the WoL like a tool in their arsenal (no moreso than Thancred is treated as a tool for espionage or Y’shtola a tool for arcane bullshittery but I digress) but the actual circumstances are so much more tragic than unfeeling.

I.e. these are your friends who love and cherish you, who in the face of no other options are forced to watch helplessly time and again as you are cast into the jaws of death by their own hand because no one else in the world can pull the stunts you can. They apologize over and over again that they have to ask you to do this. They are fully aware of the magnitude of debt they owe you. And! They never put it all upon the WoL, they are with you every step of the way, often off screen doing their own parts of the job they’ve been assigned. Like you don’t have to be buddy buddy with them if you don’t like them but in terms of pure canon? Those are your fucking ride or die homies and asking them to come fight God #86 with you would be tantamount to asking them to kill themselves for you and frankly they WOULD do it. Because they love you.
