@artificeheart

To say that the tour had been nothing short of a success thus far would have been an understatement. Every show had sold out in the first week, and from what he'd heard so far, their second week was looking to be just as promising. Lyney couldn't say that he wasn't pleased, and even excited by the turnout, but along with that came the nervousness that often plagued him during his performances.

With every successful performance would come the mounting pressure to do better - to be more impressive. Would there come a time when his skills could no longer improve? When he would run out of ideas, new ways to amaze the crowds?

It had been on his mind constantly during these past few days, and was definitely an indication that he needed a break - even just a short one. Thankfully, they'd reached a free day in their tour - a moment of peace before they would be heading to their next destination, another city on the list that they wouldn't be reaching the end of for some time. Lynette, on her part, wanted to spend the day in their hotel room decompressing and out of the prying eyes of the public. To Lyney, however, it felt like a shame to move on without experiencing some of what the city had to offer.

Which was what had brought him to the door of room 303, his fist rapping against the wooden surface rhythmically before he called out to its occupant - who, he imagined, was holed up and diligently working away.

"Aether! You in?" Time to see if he could derail that plan completely.

“I want to feel you deep inside me.” venti

"We fucked last night." That doesn't stop Aether from pulling Venti on to his lap. How can he resist when Venti is only wearing one of his over sized shirt? By some grace of celestia the two are completely alone. The only other presence around them is the pesky morning sun starting poke itself through the blinds of the bedroom window.

"How badly do you want it?" He leans forward to nip at Venti's ear. "Wanna ride me until you can't anymore?"

Fragments - episodes 27-30 author notes

You can find similar breakdown posts on older episodes in my pinned!

I make these notes as I work on an episode, however, people have been so attentive and observant with their comments that I started a tag fragments feedback where we dive even deeper into themes and interactions in the comic. These comments are a blessing, often pointing out things that my own brain doesn't register.

Obligatory ShB spoiler warning.

Episode 27 begins with a chat about the original weapons that are merely a stylish-looking convenience for them ic and for me ooc, so that I don't have to draw them lugging their weapons around.

Essentia's just a name for Vivi's spear, not like the whole concept. I introduced it around the beginning of the ShB arc. Alisaie's weapons have no name yet, there's a possibility to do something cute referring to twins.. I shall think of it :3c

Look at this child being all smug for having been able to help recreating something previously thought unique, and, um, flirting.. In her own way.....

Vivi be like, sigh, "ah, back on her bs already... Better indulge her while she's still in a nice mood".

Alisaie's left arm's stronger than both Vivi's. As a dragoon he doesn't only use magic to amplify his jumps, if it works on legs, why not extend it to arms as well? Not unlike what monks do, minus the actual physical training. Basically he cheats with magic in real fights. A casual friendly duel isn't worth expending aether, so he only relies on his actual strength :'>

He also can't do friendly duels because his Echo only telegraphs hostile attacks. A friend would stop before his blade cuts him, so Vivi's kinda blind, only relying on his own average skill. A legendary hero that's no fun to spar with if you're remotely competent.

..Which has no negative effect on Exarch's fanboyism.

Several people said they look forward to said sparring session, and I felt like I failed them because I had no plans to follow through with this. Then I thought some more.. Do we mean every little thing we say or think? Sometimes it's just distracted nonsense. If every action and word were hooks/setups for the story, it'd feel artificial. This's just my opinion, but some scenes have to have idle chatter and musings for realism.

Vivi and Alphi look like door-to-door salesmen, yet the Chais are buying multiples of whatever they sell.

This's a looooooongg post, under the cut we go~

A random thing that thematically belongs here, but didn't make it in the comic: Vivi ended up being more freaked out by Eulmore than Amh Araeng.

Feo "privacy breach" Ul :> They greet each other so casually that it's clear, this's far from being the first time.

One of my personal fav panels so far. People loved the "crystal mystel" so much but I can't take credit for that! My brain's full of soup that's a mix of everything canon and my own generous additions, but I THINK one of the pixies calls him that ingame, sometime post 5.0.

You probably didn't know that you needed more Exarch and Feo Ul interactions till now, I've got you covered. Their scenes will take time to trickle in, but they EXIST and go back as far as their first meeting.

Exactly what happened.

One more episode where Vivi doesn't utter a word, but it doesn't feel like that.

Tank!Exarch fanclub, +1 member. Vivi's pleasantly surprised by the sudden shift in Exarch's demeanor. He genuinely admires him here. "Lead me anywhere daddy".

Ready for a guild wars 1 (one!) joke? No? I'm making it anyway. Lyna casts gaze of contempt (effect: removes enchantments on target foe)

She's such a good daughter with great intuition. She feels uneasy about this way before Vivi feels anything at all. He just looks. Perceives. He has eyes, dammit! And Exarch has those stupid sexy sandals and shiny crystal arm and stylish flowy robes and he's generally kinda cool? It's official, it has begun: Vivi's attracted to Exarch here.

Zooming in super close to bring your attention to his thigh gap <w<

A closeup for the hell of it C: His eyes have a natural faint glow that's just there, it doesn't mean anything, like, genuinely.

Vivi tries to appease Lyna. He has no idea why she keeps glaring at him, probably still not trusting a stranger. He uses his charm as a casual manipulation. Unfortunately, Lyna falls for it. For now.

As per msq, Exarch's kneeling, not collapsing (although that would've been just as fitting tbh). While still not trusting him too much, Vivi slowly begins to respect a reputable ruler and a skilled fighter, and WHY IS HE KNEELING MY LORD GET UP?! Vivi hates being treated like some sort of a messiah. That pushes him further inside the box of being a mythical figure, and denies his humanity.

Normal colors and lighting!! For one episode....

The scene on the left isn't meant to feel cozy and inviting, while the right one is. Sickly, cold, washed out colors vs darker and warmer ones. I'm putting a lot of thought into this, just wanted to celebrate it a lil C:

Episodes 28-29 show Vivi and Exarch's ways of handling unexpected personal hostility. Vivi casually whips out a V and a silly grin, while Exarch.....

He tried, okay?!

A thing on their positioning in this scene that I didn't plan consciously, it just happened: Exarch's framed by the Crystarium, appearing more aligned with it, while the elf pile's surrounded by an idyllic natural frame. Something something about the greenery meaning life, and Exarch looking a bit out of place here.

This's our first, but not last encounter of an imagination theater :>

The dragons are goofy on purpose. Well, sort of. I can count on one hand the amount of times I drew non-humanoid creatures, and the tone here doesn't demand anything super serious from me. Also it makes sense in-character, Exarch probably never saw a dragon up close.

Take a good look at this lil shit. I indulged in illustrating his badass moment before pointing the "camera" away for a while. We're heading into the Il Mheg arc that lasts for months and has no cats ;w;

Vivi's iconic Protagonist Grin >:D

Also, Ryne. Just to keep your expectations grounded: while I personally like her, she has no relevance in this story, and very little screentime. I'm currently having Eden raid brainworms, might write a scene or two related to that, but we're talking many years into the future. Until then, she doesn't do much.

ShB cast's diverse and extremely fun to explore, but if I went on tangents the comic would literally never progress. Gotta be honest, I'm already terrified that some readers might drift away before reaching the wolgraha part of this wolgraha comic. I don't wanna rush OR dilute the main plot too much, if that makes sense. Also, just like in real life, you probably don't form perfect connections with every member of your social circle, some people grow closer than others. Vivi has next to no connection to Minfilia/Ryne, he also stays away from little girls after one of those ended up becoming his lifelong problem *snorts and points at Alisaie*

Desires, and feasting on them? A dungeon meshi nod? More likely than you think.

Feo Ul, sprawled out on his chest like that, visually resembles a burning heart.

Emet antithesis :3c

Imagine loving your pet so much that you let him do this. Feo Ul isn't moved by the physical act AND the joking accusation.

While seemingly slacking for a dozen episodes, Vivi formed bonds with Feo Ul and Ardbert, and thus secured the future of the two stars. Now he has friends that aren't his coworkers first and foremost, that he genuinely wants to fight for. This's what makes him tick as a hero: a quiet plea of a friend, not even asking him directly, a stark contrast to being dragged around and cried at for help. If Vivi's introduction to an entity (person/group of people) is "they suffer, they need help", he shrugs it off. Everyone suffers and needs help, he can't split into thousands of vivis to please them all.

He's only truly motivated to help, or empathizes with those who he gets to know through other means. Take Ardbert, his strange behavior on the Source, then reintroduction that's confusion and companionable snark, but not wailing for help. And Feo Ul, they hang out with him just because, they're safe.

He may not run off to fight the local Lightwarden this instant, but when he gets around to it, he's earnest for a change.

This's all I have for now, thanks for reading!!

ꕥ — WELCOME TO EXO COSMIA, AZEM (ATLAS). 🌑

ꕥ  — OOC INFORMATION;

name / alias: aether age: 23 pronouns: he/they ooc contact: @divinemodes on twitter/tumblr other characters in xc: Quasar Devereux (oc), Blake Hayden (oc), Gabriel (ULTRAKILL)

ꕥ — IC INFORMATION;

Name: Azem (Atlas) Age: Thousands. Looks to be in their mid-twenties. Pronouns: Any Series: Final Fantasy XIV canon point: Directly before the Sundering app triggers: Apocalyptic scenarios, death/mass death, sacrifice/mass sacrifice, FFXIV Shadowbringers/Endwalker/Myths of the Realm spoilers

personality:

The best word to describe Azem is “eccentric”. They care very little for expectation and tend to go about things in their own way; favoring an unconventional approach to problems. The second best word would be “excitable” or perhaps “peppy”, wielding a joyful, simple zest for life and seemingly boundless optimism. Azem has a lot of raw charisma, making them a perfect choice for resolving issues between The Convocation and the layman. They are deeply empathetic and kind.

But that’s where some of their flaws lay - they can be intense, and care too much; they don’t take rejection particularly well. They’re also terrible at saying no, and giving up when the deck is not in their favor. When Azem’s heart is set on something, they want to see it through - if they don’t get distracted by something else, that is. They can be, admittedly, scatterbrained and are prone to pigeonholing themself.

Additionally, they’re surprisingly comfortable with using underhanded tactics to get what they want. Azem takes no love in trickery, but their personal morals can fall short in lieu of accomplishing a ‘greater good’, as much as they dislike others doing the same.

Also, they’re terrified of death. They want to be remembered, they want to be loved, not forgotten or ignored.

something your muse struggles with:

Taking on too many of others’ burdens; selflessness to a fault.

Being unable to accept loss or defeat.

your muse’s greatest strength:

Emotional intelligence. Kind of a necessity given their lines of work, but hey.

Creativity and open-mindedness.

history / background:

Azem - no, Atlas was born to parents Iapetus and Clymene in the ancient city of Amaurot as the eldest sibling of four. Due to their parents being busy Amaurotine city workers dedicated to keeping the place running smoothly, it often rested on Atlas to take care of their siblings. All of whom went their separate ways - with their brother Prometheus becoming notorious for his important strides in the field of fire-based concepts but having several academic scandals - Atlas wanted to pursue other fields of research. Specifically what would now be described as ‘liberal arts’ - social sciences and philosophy, eventually leading to Atlas landing counseling work. Specifically, managing laboring personnel under the Bureau of the Administrator.

At the job, they became quick friends with a judicial officer (a woman later venerated to the post-sundering goddess Azeyma), who they became close to. When the Bureau got involved with matters brought to them by the Convocation of the Fourteen - the ancients’ governmental body - this was how Atlas met the previous seat of Azem, Venat. When it was time for her to begin deciding a successor, she took Atlas under her wing due to their excellent people skills.

Training went smoothly, and eventually Atlas rose to the seat of Azem, the Traveler, who spent their days wandering the star and spending a great deal of time with people. Of course this also included the fellow members of the Convocation, most notably the seat of Emet-Selch and their mutual non-convocation friend, Hythlodaeus.

Not all was perfect, however. In the ancient world, personal grievances were often swept under the rug (including by Azem themself,) leading to the seat of Fandaniel creating the concept Meteion who brought forth the Final Days through the unbridled despair at finding out the hundreds of dead stars that surrounded their own. This sheer power of misery shook the foundation of the world, leading to rapid destabilization. While the bulk of the Convocation decided that they must create the primal Zodiark to bring stabilization to the world - at the cost of large amounts of sacrifice of their own people - Azem disagreed and deflected. They instead, alongside Venat and her followers, seeked a better option.

Unfortunately, this option wound up being Venat sundering the world into several reflections to stop the Final Days; fracturing every single being within it into shards scattered across them all.

This included Azem, who felt true despair for the first time as their soul was broken. Eventually one of their shards would become the fabled Warrior of Light in Eorzea…but this is not about him RN.

powers / abilities:

Creation magic: An ability shared by most, if not all ancients; they have the capability to create items and even creatures from their large reserves of aether and other materials. 

Teleportation: Similarly, Azem can teleport long distances by casting a spell via aetherial rifts. This only works for locations they’ve been to before, and does not work for short-distance travel.

Transformation: While it is uncouth in ancient society, most can transform into a larger, more powerful form. Azem’s takes the form of a multi-armed, statue-like humanoid figure wielding an orb as a weapon. This magically-charged sphere can change in size, from palm-sized to large enough to have to be carried on their back. They ARE balling.

Ally Summons: A unique ability to them, Azem’s magic can pluck individuals from wherever they may be and bring them directly to their side. This selection may be random.

Pioneered by Azem, their “job” is something between a ‘tank’ and a ‘caster’ known as a Magister. This bizarre offshoot of a typical magus feels notoriously clunky to many others, and thus never caught much traction among other ancients. Magisters use quarterstaves as a weapon of choice, to channel magics as well as a bludgeon/to defend.

Offensive magic: Azem can cast concentrated blasts of aether, typically in the form of fireballs and earthquakes. These destructive spells can also be imbued in their quarterstaff, increasing potency dealt by its attacks.

Defensive magic: Appropriating techniques typically found in healing arts, Azem can concentrate aether to provide spells that increase the defensive properties of themself and allies, as well as briefly weakening enemies. This includes a prototype spell that can make themself invulnerable to most forms of damage, at the cost of vitality.

Limit Breaks: Massive shows of great power, channeled during the heat of battle through large amounts of aether and dynamis. Per encounter, Azem can only use one of the two:

True Telamon: Tracing defensive patterns from distant stars, circular glyphs manifest to surround Azem and their allies to drastically decrease damage taken temporarily. This can cause them to be able to survive harm that would normally be lethal.

Heliocentrism: A simulacrum of the unmatched power of the sun is breathed into existence through sheer force of will, culminating with a massive fireball to scorch the earth and enemies within a large blast radius.

inherent abilities:

Ancient Physiology: The ancients are very tall, aether-dense beings who cannot die to old age, living for eons if they do not choose to return to their star. Of course, they can still die by other means, even if they are more durable…

Combat with a quarterstaff and general spellcasting.

Knows a lot of shit about psychology and whatever…even if it's a little outdated by current standards.

Great at hiking and outdoors survival!

pure and earnest whimsy

items/weapons:

Pleiades: Azem’s quarterstaff, conjured and carved by themself. It has been outfitted to be a shepherd’s crook, and can be used to channel their magics.

Convocation mask: Unlike the other members of the Convocation who wear red masks, the seat of Azem wears a black one. Its eyes are perpetually turned upwards in a joyful expression.

starting ability: Creation magic starting item: Convocation mask extra:

They’re [chucky voice] gendahflooid

Um…yeah they’re B’hajah’s Azem but they don’t have to be your Azem okay!?

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

@reginrokkr​ asked: ✔ any muses you feel like doing this for if you have more than one! If not, the ones that catch your interest the best for Dain.

A quick and easy plotting guide | accepting!

honestly, for canons, it’s going to be either kaeya or zhongli at first thought, but mostly due to their overt connections to khaenri’ah and the archons. same for lumine and aether, both being very connected to dain in one way or the other.

oc-wise, i think it’d be interesting for coryn “the gods are literally just powerful people” or johanna “my father literally turned me into a science experiment so he could ‘become a god’ ):” to interact with him, so uhhhhh...

oh and enjou. because it’d be very funny. dain, my man, enjou never shuts up.

anyway, besides the literal surface stuff, it’d be interesting to see how certain dynamics shake out and what they turn into.

My muse(s): i literally list fuckin six SEVEN i’m so sorry. i’m not doing this chart 7 times tho.

Do I know your muse(s):  yes | no | a little | tell me about your muse

Setting: our verse | my verse | your verse | modern | alternate universe | other

Pre-established relationships? yes | no | depends on the relationship

I’m in the mood for: fluff | angst | horror | romance | humor | crime | hurt / comfort | action | supernatural | slice of life | crack | dark threads | light threads | any genre | multi-para | shorter para | one-line | any length | plotted threads | unplotted threads | other

technically, not really, because forty isn’t old, and more than that she doesn’t want that to be her personality, she really doesn’t— but when your entire party is, at least, two whole decades younger than you, practically half your entire life time ( and double theirs, what an awful thought ) it’s kind of inevitable. she takes the position with grace, though… and a bit of an attitude, but she deserves that at the very least.

odile’s learned some things in her forty years; not a whole lot, that’s why she’s out here traveling in the first place, has the moniker of “the researcher” in their silly little party, so on and so forth. for all her crankiness she cares for them deeply, and she’s more than happy to impart whatever wisdom she has upon them; despite her craft type, she is firmly, proudly, undoubtedly their rock.

something your muse struggles with: patience. she’s cranky.

your muse’s greatest strength:  … also patience. of the emotional type! 

history / background: 

odile was a liar by omission.

or perhaps that’s not quite right. it’d be “by omission” if isabeau had said nothing, and she continued to say nothing— but the moment he’d questioned it, she’d had the choice to lie, or to come clean.

is it possible to lie without saying a single thing? that is how odile felt that afternoon, the way the kids start verbally wrestling with each other in their attempt to crack her open; to them, this was a weakness in the shell, an opening, and it’s easy to toss them the bone and watch them fight with each other like puppies, playful and with teeth but no fangs.

she’s fond of them, more than anything. born in ka bue but here in vaugarde to learn, she finds her greatest teachers are a bunch of twenty somethings and an actual, literal child. of course, she knew from the very beginning of her journey, that little of her studies would be found in libraries, or schools, or houses— but she finds herself easily and quickly in these first strangers, then friends, now family.

mirabelle and isabeau. then siffrin. then bonnie. the search for herself is never ending, but she’s certain, with them by her side, that it’s right there— nestled between their quiet, beating hearts. all of theirs.

powers / abilities: 

CRAFT SKILLS. in stars and time’s equivalent of magic. rock paper scissors, pretty literally: odile’s a paper type, so she’s weak to scissors, resistant against rock, you can figure it out. she’s also capable of using all three craft types. craft type determines the palm shape when attacking— or is it the other way around? who knows. whichever it is, odile attacks with an open palm.

Scissors III. deals scissors damage to an enemy.

Rock III. deals rock damage to one enemy.

Paper III. deals paper damage to one enemy.

Slow IV. slows down enemies for a few turns.

Paper α V. deals big paper damage to one enemy.

Craft Buff. strengthens one friend’s resistance to a craft type for a few turns.

Craft Break. makes an enemy weaker to a craft type’s attacks for a few turns.

Craft Break α. makes an enemy weaker to all craft types for a few turns.

inherent abilities: 

EXAMINE. analyze an enemy. this just means she’s perceptive tbh but she’s in an rpg

MEMORIES. she’s got some! truthfully i’m not sure how they work considering siffrin’s the one in charge of them but these are out there somewhere in the aether…

Memory of Odile. +5 to all stats. 

Memory of Tonics. health items used by odile restores more hp.

Memory of First Strike. attack speed up at start of battle.

Memory of a Secret. +50 attack.

items / weapons: 

DENSE BOOK. book of spells. probably

GEOMETRIC GLASSES. she’s got bad eyes

OPAQUE GLASSES. boosts attack and crit chance, but lowers defence. 

starting ability: scissors iii starting item: geometric glasses

extra:

she’s afraid of heights like me and i like that

might add more but we’ll see ( explodes )

We’ve been informed some of our links aren’t working!

Here are the direct link to other pages on our blog. Sorry for any inconvenience everyone! 

MASTERLIST || RULES || APPLICATION ( Everything under cut if not working) 

We will be making an About Server page soon. Please be on the look out as its currently a work in progress! 

APPLICATION

OOC: Name: Age: Pronouns: IC: “`Basics.”` **Name:** **Alias:** **Age:** **Pronouns:** “`Physical description.”` **Height:** **Hair:** **Eyes:** **Build:** **Skin:** **Scars:** **Piercings:** **Tattoos:** **Clothing/Equipment:** **Extras:** “`Personality.”` **Personality description:** **Likes:** **Dislikes:** **Skills:** **Occupation, if any:** “`Headcanons.”` **Backstory:** (Can be just a brief description) (Please list at least 3 headcanons for your character!) Writing sample; (At least a paragraph or two)

RULES 

- There is no vent channel. For your own safety, please refrain from venting about very serious things going on in your personal life. This is a public server meant for roleplay; enjoy yourself while you’re here and have fun.

- One character pre a region! Example; You can play both Gorou (Inazuma) and Klee (Mondstadt). But you would not be allowed to have both Ayaka (Inazuma) and Thoma (Inazuma)

- There is currently a three character limit with no Original Character’s in this group. Canon only. Sorry!

- We are not first come first serve. If we have multiple applications for one character, we will choose the most suitable one. We have the right to reject forms if you’re application is effortless and weak as well. That being said, it doesn’t take much to impress us, so don’t panic. These aren’t college application!

- Do not Godmod, Powerplay, Metagame Etc… OP muses are unfun, Mods will speak with you if people feel like you’re muse is Gmodding/Op/Powerplaying/Metagaming/Using abilities they don’t have.

- Mutual respect is key! Respect the Mods. Respect the rules. Respect your fellow mun. We have a three strike policy until ban.

- Absolutely no OOC drama between muns. Speak to a Mod if something comes up and we will help you solve it together, peacefully. IC drama is perfectly fine and encouraged! It adds to the fun.

- Consult Mods for Major Changes to Character (Applies to; changes background story, death, etc. Does not apply to losing limbs, injuries, running off somewhere.)

- You can not apply for unofficially released characters. That being said; you are free to begin working on applications for them, then submit them once the character’s first banner officially begins. This is due to lack of canon lore of the character to base off of. (Example; Yaoyao, Ayato) The only exceptions to this rule are NPC’s and characters already met in the story. Example; Timaeus, Yae Miko, Baizhu, Scaramouche.)

Day 8: Clamor

Teeeeechnically, I guess, spoilers for the first quests of the CT storyline? I haven’t tried to write G’raha before, so I don’t know how canon this will end up being, but it was fun to try out. Mild implied one-sided(?) G’raha/WoL.

The notion that he will be merely an observer collapses all too quickly once they enter the Labryinth proper. Oh, he said he would hang back and take notes for the expedition, but the when the clamour of angry voidsent chittering rises on the cohort of adventurers and their Scion-borrowed one entering the first chamber to the west, to reveal a swarm of elementals and voidsent, he's not going to stand back and do nothing. G'raha Tia is a man, not marble, and he'll be damned if he's going to just watch when he could help, especially with something this exciting.

The sounds are chaotic and raucous; angry wails, grunts and moans and pain, the high keening of an elemental before it is dissolved once more back into constituent aether. The air tastes of dust and stale water, with an increasingly coppery edge, and strangely, the occasional weak waft like fresh-ground cinnamon. Smoke and chilled ozone eddy in the air stirred by whistling arrows and running forms, but he can trace that to their party's black mage, long-fingered hands throwing balls of fire and shards of sharpened ice.

A sudden, strangely muffled and meaty thud, and G'raha finds himself sinking to his knees, a spike of pain radiating out from a spot at the side of his skull. Through sheer force of will, he manages not to drop his bow, lifting his draw hand to try and stop a rapidly increasing trickle of blood from his scalp. A blow to the head.  Faintly, the Seeker groans, feeling increasingly dizzy, pulse pounding against the bone.

Something sounds in counterpoint, the rhythm wrong, too rushed, slightly uneven. A person kneels down behind him and gentle hands reach, cupping around his head, just below the ears, before aether slides into him as if he'd stepped naked beneath the waterfall just past a glacier, so cold it burns, so hot it chills, prickling and soothing and filling his mouth with more of that fresh cinnamon.

Blinking in blurred shock, his eyes lift and meet those of the healer, mispaired green and Allagan Red, to a hue like fully ripened summer cherries, a red so rich you can taste the fruit. Or maybe that's the words that accompany them, as the woman spits, tart and sweet all at once, "If you have the skill to dart around and make games amongst the Ixali and Dullahan, G'raha Tia, you are more than capable of helping fight these creatures. Stay closer so I do not have to come running to your aid next time."

Kohanya Chelewae. The Scion. He'd half let himself forget she was a healer, after watching her tear into the aforenamed beasts with spell and curse and, one one memorable occasion, literally smacking an Ixali straight in the beak with her codex when it got too close. He had been quietly impressed then, even if she had not had the best possible attitude about his attempt to have a little fun.

Now, his eyes linger on her lips as he staggers back to his feet, the pain rapidly becoming memory. His eyes fall upon her lips and something stirs in his blood, a surge of genuine interest. What color is that that she paints them?

Something with flowers. As he jogs to catch up with the others, the miqo'te lad muses to himself, considering possibilities, each name accompanied in his mind by a professor's droning tone.

Lavender (a mark of serenity, grace, devotion and purity… and silence). No.

Heliotrope (eternal love). Hardly.

Iris (royalty and wisdom). Well, she might be wise, but no.

A pause as he wracks his mind, then a memory, caught gazing out the windows of a classroom on an early spring day, just past the frosts, as the heads of soft purple lilac flowers swayed in the wind, carrying their perfume within the buildings and making them all wish to be out and free to roam.

(The beginning of love.)

Chasing after the backs of the adventurers until he catches up, falling in with jibes and good-natured joking, G'raha smiles as much to himself as to anyone else.

Her lips are the color of blooming lilacs.
