My mind (5/11), by Alessia Heartilly
My mind
Only on the train, she feels like she can breathe again. An intense perfume of iris fills her nostrils, and somehow, even as alone as she has ever been, even as lonely as she has ever been, she feels at home, because it's her mother's perfume, and maybe it is a sign, and she needs to be strong and independent and confident and smart, now. She will spread her wings, and fly.

Squall Leonhart from Final Fantasy VIII. I have loved this asshole (cinnamon roll) for 24 years. Ever since playing FF6 (it was released as FF3 in the US) back in 95’, the series as a whole has been a mainstay in me and my siblings lives. 8 holds a special place in my heart as it was released the late summer of 99’ when I started my sophomore year of high school and just defined so much of the random thoughts on 90s fatalistic gothic and hopeless romanticism I was hungry for. Every few years I go through a huge FF kick and thanks to my youngest sister Taylor streaming the FF7 remake on her twitch (stigmasabotage) I, once again, am knee deep in this obsession. I already have so many sketches done (and a few from 20+ years ago!) that I’ll be posting every few days so stay tuned!

How the cast of ff8 would do on Hot Ones
Squall: Would not understand why it's necessary, but would do it if it was a mission or Rinoa convinced him to. Cid would probably also insist that it's good for Garden. He would try to muscle through it, but would get very annoyed by all the personal questions. May or may not finish depending on how annoyed he is. Would definitely flub a question or two. Would not like the spice, but he'd suffer in silence.
Rinoa: The interview itself would be going great, but she would get in over her head and get about halfway through before having to tap out. Unfortunately she can't handle the spice :(! would come across as sweet and likable though! Also Angelo would show up at some point, and Rinoa would give a shout out to freeing Timber.
Quistis: She would have a few wings, then realize her limitations, and gracefully bow out. Would have a harder time with the questions and being personable, but would ultimately get through the interview. Definitely would have her Trepies spamming in the comments that she killed it, hahaha.
Zell: He would get all the way to end, eating way too fast and inevitably start choking at some point. He'd refuse water or milk and insist on no breaks. Would barely have time to answer questions as he shoved food into his mouth. He'd randomly stop at some point though to explain the intricacies of some historical event, then resume gorging himself.
Selphie: She would manage eating all of the wings and answering questions so effortlessly that it's scary. Would probably do something weird halfway through, like dipping a chicken wing in milk. Also would say something psychotic out nowhere, terrifying the host. Don't mess with Selphie!
Irvine: The interview would be going great and Irvine would be very entertaining. He'd be a little over halfway through, then suddenly start crying when the spice hit him all at once. Poor Irvine wasn't cut out for that kind of heat! People would leave sympathy comments at least, and Irvine would read every single one.
Seifer: Would brag about how easy it is, but be dying inside and trying not to cry. He'd force himself to finish it though, and there would be a lot of hate comments calling him an asshole. True, but still, you'd have to respect his commitment! Raijin and Fujin would be on all of their alts to support him in the comments!
Laguna: The interview would go incredibly, there would be memes about Laguna springing up overnight, and Laguna would suddenly be being quoted by everyone. In terms of wings though, he'd stop at like 3, very very sensitive palate lol. No one would notice because they'd like him so much. Kiros and Ward would be the only ones roasting him in the comments lol.
Ellone: It would take a while for her to warm up to the questions, and eating the wings. It would be a really long interview, but she'd manage to eat all of them. Would definitely come across well!
Ultimecia: Would either refuse to do the interview, or use it as an opportunity to announce her new reign of terror. Would look incredible while doing it though, and would easily finish all of her wings. Mocking the host and the audience the whole time for enjoying such a trivial challenge.

Hello, this is my video about ‘The PETS that FINAL FANTASY Characters had through the series’ from my Road to FINAL FANTASY XVI countdown type of videos.
As you may know, FF16 has Torgal, a big selling point of the game
But the big question is, will he be as talented as Angelo from FF8, tho?

Just doodling around. Maybe I’ll clean it up some more and color it some time, maybe not!
