Alphinaud and Alisae are going to hit their growth spurt at some point and we're all looking forward to it, but I'm afraid a finger will curl on the monkey's paw: SE decides genetics wins and Alphinaud will walk up in the Dawntrail opening cutscene, smiling and expecting us to be happy he finally looks like an adult,
and he looks like Fourchenault
and we just have to Deal because that would make sense but aaaagh

An RP blog for Rush Sykes of The Last Remnant, but adapted for the FFXIV world!
Brief guidelines:
hewwo!! call me termi (25+, any pronouns)
am a filthy multishipper hehehe
also jk watch this be a multimuse blog for all the tlr characters i can convert to ffxiv
not spoiler free, will try to tag ew spoilers where necessary!
i am v bad at rmbering all ffxiv lore but i will do my best ljaflksjf
i tag 'trigger tw' for any sensitive content!
i have a busy irl and other commitments! bc of this is i am naturally very slow and will take random hiatus’!
main rp partner is @echobled​ so replies to their muses tend to be prioritized!
feel free to turn any prompt u sent into a thread!
pls don’t rush me into replying to things or remind me in any way ;w ; this is a hobby for me and i tend to withdraw and get slower if i feel stressed fjlkdjsg
i do drop threads quite a lot; this is just to keep drafts from getting bloated. the reasons range from not knowing how to respond, not having the muse for it, it was a casual thread, or feeling like our muses’ relationship has progressed past that in other threads! it’s nothing personal at all, and i’m always happy to initiate new stuff!!
^ that being said, i tend to keep drafts if its the only one we have between our muses and/or we have anything planned for it!
NEW FOLLOWERS: unfortunately im reaching the limit on the threads/rp partners i can take T__T i can do small things (like one-liners to paras) and send prompts/meme in etc., though! I also follow bc i like meeting new ppl, sending in hc questions, and learning more about their ocs so if there’s a lack of ic interaction on my end, its bc of this >< i’m very sorry!
Biography:
Age: appears mid-20s Gender: male Orientation: biromantic, demisexual Eye colour: brown Hair colour: black Skin colour: fair Height: 183cm (6′) Notable features: Green markings under his left eye, a deep scar from a stab just left of his chest (shy of his heart), jagged scars on his upper back, a few scars on his left outer thigh. Job: Paladin (abilities similar up to lvl 80) Alignment: neutral good
Brief history:
Amnesiac and lost and far from his homeland, Rush was taken under the wings of Marina and John Sykes, a pair of hyuran researchers based in Sharlayan.
A few years later, Marina had Irina Sykes, a young girl gifted with the power of the Echo, discovered at age 10.
Knowing the bare minimal amount of the Echo, Marina and John decide to join the Students of Baldesion, dedicating their research efforts to help their daughter, but in doing so neglect them both.
The disappearance of the Isle of Val brought Irina and Rush closer together in fear of having lost their parents.
Rush and Irina struggle for a while. Rush takes on odd jobs and eventually takes up the gladiator class and does his best to master it, carrying on to become a free paladin.
Later, they find out more about why the Isle of Val falls. Their parents unfortunately perished during such events.
Irina decides to remain in Old Sharlayan to carry on their parents' research where it left off. She works on becoming knowledgeable about aether and the Echo, and becoming proficient with her blade. She’s given the mark of an Archon shortly into Shadowbringers, She later joins the Scions of the Seventh Dawn just at the beginning of Endwalker.
Rush decides to explore and help those in need. He is often found at major battles, trying to save and help as many people as possible.
Stormblood onwards:
These events are liable to be a bad ending :))) Mostly bc Rush's canon in TLR is tragic and i love angst lkjaklsjf. happy to discuss this stuff further as a plot owowo i wont force this on any rp partner tho if tragedy is not ur jam!
Reeling from the loss of his parents, Rush doesn’t take kindly to Krile, a close family friend, being kidnapped by Garleans. He... basically tries to run in there recklessly and stupidly to try rescue her but ends up getting experimented on with the Resonant. However, his very nature rejects it and as a result he almost dies from it.
Volunteered with the Ala Mhigan Resistance with the Masks. However was later betrayed by 'The Griffin', wherein many of his friends were sacrificed to bring forth Shinryu. Was only saved from this because he was stationed elsewhere like a handful of others. Stayed for a long time afterwards to aiding any civilians caught in the crossfire.
Aided in the Bozjan Resistance and was recruited into Gunnhildr's Blades for his high combat skills as a paladin and leadership aptitude. After Misija's betrayal, Rush sought to save her, having considered her a dear comrade. He ultimately fails but is spared. After, he is too injured and distraught to aid with Misija's capture.
He joins Ilsabard's Contingent to travel to Garlemald. As an experienced soldier, his rank allows him his own squadron, with which he is ordered to help any Garlean refugees and lend aid where possible. He aids in the effort of transporting the group of refugees to use the lunar teleporter by request of Fourchenault. He meets his end by the monsters that attack them, valiantly attempting to save the refugees under his care.
... Or is he ded :eyes:
In line with his TLR canon, he'll probably come back in some way, but if he does then he will come back wrong in some way. That just remains to be seen owowowo
Nothing is completely fixed, though. Happy to change things up for plot-related stuff :D ty for reading this far ajsflsalkfj

Tumblr Writing Prompts
A Master post for my writing that starts here on Tumblr. The FFXIV Writes have their own Master posts (2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021), and my lore/speculation posts have their own page, so this is for blurbs, scenes, microfics, and the occasional proper story about my characters and various NPCs.
Most of these are also on my Ao3, but for Tumblr, this is a little more organized than tag diving, and rebloggable. This post is also linked in the fic writing page and my pinned post.
