1. Three ships you like:
about to self-report on my taste so hard rn
Idira Tlass / Jae Heydari (Warhammer 40k: Rogue Trader) - OKAY LOOK. I know people are here because I write that Yrliet fic but listen up. At first I thought of them as perfect besties, which is ALSO a great flavour, but then I began rotating Idira in my mind on full blast like a 900W microwave and I went CRAZY. Like, just, okay, let me try to summarize my thoughts... so Idira, she's brash, she's loud-mouthed, she's talented as FUCK and despite being an unsanctioned psyker has beaten all the millions of odds stacked against her, but pretty soon after meeting her, you can brush past her tough facade and realise she's just aching for someone she can Be Real with. You go deeper and you realise she was raised to be a weapon for warlords to use but then one day a knight in shining armour named Theodora von Valancius busted her out, swept her off her feet and spirited her away into the stars. She wants that back, in the end: someone she can lean on, hug her when shit is rough, stay with her until the inevitability of her gruelling end at the hands of the warp. AND THEN ENTER JAE HEYDARI, a supposed 'princess' of a faraway kingdom who seemingly wants a handsome (and very rich) prince to save her, but pretty quickly you can see past the act and know that Jae is a total freebird who knows that the only person she can count on is herself. But even so, she's fiercely loyal and would happily march into a cold death if that meant saving those she cared for (as many unfortunately found out because of Jae's Act 4 quest bugging). So it's Idira, the 'witch-diviner of fates' with seemingly unbreakable will, a valiant 'dark knight'-type figure holding back horrors unseen all while quietly yearning to be saved, + Jae, the 'runaway princess of Efreet' with unyielding charm and luxurious airs, a beautiful 'blooming rose waiting to be plucked'-type of girl that under the surface is chasing after her destiny all on her own two feet, because who the hell needs a Prince Charming when your name is Jae fucking Heydari? LISTEN. LISTEN OKAY THE ROLE REVERSAL. THE UNEXPECTED INTERTWINING OF THEIR FATES IN OPPOSITE SIDES OF A DANCE. GUYS DO YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYI
Trahearne / Pact Commander (Guild Wars 2) - Most people haven't played GW2 at all. But a lot of people have played FFXIV. So imagine a Haurchefant-type figure that, if you choose to start as a Sylvari, has been with you having your back the whole tile, sets up the whole We Gonna Save The World organization and trusts in you to be one of his top commanders, takes the lead but in truth is always looking upon you to be his sunlight and shining spear, you are the only one that sees through the brave face he has put up this whole time for the sake of fighting the good fight, you are the one he trusts with who he is, and then the first expansion of the game comes out and he FUCKIGNGEWOI HOGESWHIIO EGIJJiaewhioewh JHAHAhsahifEGHIWHW EIEWGi NOOoOoOO anyway you should play critically acclaimed MMO Guild Wars 2 it's got a free trial all the way up to the first expansion Heart of Thorns, is a 'buy once play forever' type of MMO so you don't have to pay a sub, and is constantly updating with new story PLEASE PLAY IT WITH ME PLEASE
Zheng Chenggong / Zhou Yu (Fate/Samurai Remnant) - Yes, that Ming loyalist guy who exorcised the Dutch from Taiwan + that Romance of the Three Kingdoms twink who dabbed on Cao Cao. I have no excuse for this one. They got that twin souls separated over 1300 years shit with a heavy heaping of 'time is a flat circle and nothing we ever do will matter in the end' on top of it. Zheng Chenggong is also, uh... it gets worse the more I talk about it so I'll just stop here. If you know you know.
2. First ship ever: ...probably N Harmonia / the Pokemon B/W player character. What was it? FerrisWheelShipping??????? I was like 12 years old okay you gotta leave me alone
3. Last song you heard: Persephone in the Garden - Aidoneus. I've had it on loop while writing. It, uh... it's a mood.
4. Favorite Childhood Book: My dad made me read The Little Prince when I was a kid and I regarded it with the blind childlike wonder an idiot 7 year old would, without understanding all the underlying whispers of tragedy. I reread it along with footnotes detailing the author's shit life and the backdrop of the Vichy Regime and I was like. What the fuck father why did you give this to me
5. Currently Reading: The Sea of Fertility tetralogy. Again. Yukio Mishima's ghost constantly possesses me and forces me to reread his 800 page long suicide note
6. Currently Watching: DUNGEON MESHI! OooOooH DUNGEON MESHI (narrator voice)
7. Currently Craving: Sleep. Good fucking night
simply do this if you wish, tag games are simply a tumblr dot com psy-op to make you anxious about bothering people

Armor / weapon that tells a story. What's your story?
I know how creative people are in the GW2 fandom, so I'm curious what items in game you've adapted to have meaning or purpose to your characters? What are your head-canons behind the wardrobe? Why does your human have wings? Why does your norn use that particular weapon? Why do your asura always use that mount? And so on! It's the weekend, time to ramble about your pixel children :D
Two of mine. Ruby's Foefire Wraps, and the Aurene Crystalline Claws.
Tumblr media
When Ruby was burying her half-sister Ash in charr infested Ascalon many many many years ago, the damask she was wrapped in began glowing when Ruby returned the body to ascalon soil. She didn't have much time to figure out what was going on with charr closing in on her so she removed a large portion of the cloth from her sister's body, settled the dirt and moved back to somewhere more hospitable. The fabric was still glowing once she'd left Ascalon and she kept some herself for research, gave some to the Priory, and the rest she fashioned into some gloves so she'd always have that reminder of her little sister Ash.
Tumblr media
Sort of a team solidarity thing. Not all of the guild has met Aurene, and not all who have trust her -- she's a dragon after all -- but those who have bonded with her in some way have been gifted a pair of gloves / finger cuffs imbued with her magic, her light. Some people say they can feel the magic of healing radiate from it, others say it's more like protection. But whatever it is, those who wear them have accepted Aurene's light into their lives.

Otyka’s Journal: The words I had lost
Some time ago now, I asked for help recovering some dialogue I had lost out in Bjora Marches. The number of people who answered the call was incredible, and thanks to those combined efforts I managed to get back all of the dialogue I had lost. 
This journal entry is written as a big thank you to those contributors: @whatsatyria, @magisterlys, @mad-queen-thorn, @codemonkey-itazuramono​, @pr-gw2​, @kiniism, @huomenhaamu, @virtue-of-justice, @foffwars2, @morgrenth. ♡ Thanks as well to everyone who spread the word.

“Burn me, don’t tell me you’re still moping.”
I grunted and scuffed my foot against the edge of the campfire. Ausculto had noticed the layer of snow that had settled comfortably on my hat, out here in the open air of Still Waters Speaking. It told the story of how long I had been sitting there.
Ausculto stamped out his feet next to me, dislodging the burrs of snow between his toes. “I’d snuff out that fire if it would get you to move and do your job."
I had sat here like a shaman who had thrown bones into the fire and was trying to divine in the cracks the words I had lost.
“Stupid,” I muttered.
“Stupid?” Ausculto echoed back in a growl.
“Stupid that I lost those records.”
It was Ausculto’s turn to grunt. “Yeah, well…” His tail swished. “Maybe Penna has a point.”
I huddled down deeper in one of the blankets of griffin-down the kodan had been offering to the many travelers and soldiers that had come through the pass in recent days. “I don’t like datapads. It’s too impersonal. Doesn’t feel right.”
“Something something risk mitigation, something something pinpoint accuracy,” said Ausculto. “You know what she’d say.”
I did. “That thing would break within a week with the kind of traveling I do. And the skaalds get along fine without asuran technology.”
And here, where the presence of Raven was so tangible, who was I to abandon my quill? The raven’s feather was tucked in an inner pocket of my coat. It felt small and loose without the journal that was usually tucked inside with it.
“Stubborn and traditional. I can respect that,” said Ausculto. “Even when it makes you a pain to work with.”
He tossed a bundle at my side. “It’s your lucky day,” he said.
The past few days had been anything but lucky. Whispers in every freezing gust, distracting me from other conversations. Glassy-eyed kodan with bloodied weapons. Saying strange things, things I had written down, things that had gotten scattered with the journal I had lost. I had doubled back five times, ten times, to the woods, to the cliffside, to the junction by the lake. Every trace that I had witnessed anything at all had vanished.
“Others have reported sightings,” Ausculto said as I picked up the bundle. “Word’s gotten around camp. Word’s also gotten around camp about a certain archivist’s plight.”
I pulled loose the knot of twine and peeled back the paper wrapping. It was a stack of leaflets. Some were actually made of leaves, dried and hardened, with their veins running through the words that had been scratched onto them with ink. Others were made of leather or parchment. None of the pages were mine, but the words were just as I had left them.
“I was told several people dropped those off at the keep throughout the day,” said Ausculto.
I dragged my thumb along the edges of the sheaves, still stunned. “Did they leave their names?”
“Maybe. Didn’t ask.”
“I think this is everything.” I got to my feet, the papers firmly in my hands. “Everything from before. Ausculto, I need to copy these down.”
“Then I can be done playing courier. Good. Don’t lose those,” Ausculto said, dryly. He brushed the snow off the top of his cowl and walked away. “Meet outside the north gate in an hour.”
I looked down at the records of the words I had lost, the papers crinkled and smooth, some with wide looping scripts and others with tiny scratches that together made up the handwriting of a dozen adventurers who had confirmed what I had seen and heard.
I bowed my head. “Thank you, Raven, for sending these kind souls to me.”
-from the journal of Priory Archivist Talfir Otyka

Miriya’s Pad
Tumblr media
(Art commissioned from CheruSake) Author’s Note: This was my first attempt at a Guild Wars 2 fic, just as an experiment. I was very satisfied with the outcome, but chronologically it predates ALL the other GW2 stories I’ve put out here. In fact, if you read any of my Danae sister fics, there’s references to THIS one. If it sounds kind of clunky in terms of dialogue and descriptions, I apologize; I was still getting my feet back under me in terms of writing. It’s a bit cliche, and pretty corny, but I felt it was a cute fic. I’m actually really nervous about sharing it here, cuz I don’t know if people will like it at all. In terms of in-game chronology, this would be Pre-Scarlet by only a few months. Lion’s Arch was still the ramshackle version we all miss. That said, please enjoy. ***** "...And our final stop on our tour of Rata Sum is my personal quarters!" Miriya announced brightly, as the magitek cubes that formed the doorway slid in the cardinal directions. The internal barrier field dropped immediately once the cubes had slid into the ceiling, walls and floor. She stepped proudly inside, hands on her hips and smiled. "It's...Wow! Surprisingly spacious!" Kaleb blinked as he stepped inside. The barrier popped back up behind him and the door-cubes shifted shut once more, cutting out the natural noise of the Maguuma Jungle outside. He looked around in amazement at the personal dwelling of his teammate. "From outside it looks so...small." Miriya smirked and crossed her arms. "That's because I had it carved into the side of the mountain and disguised that way." She scuffed her sharp nails on her coat, smugly admiring them. "That and a little bit of fifth dimensional pocket-space manipulation make it nice and big." The home was open-concept in the Asuran style, a cube turned on its corner and hollowed out, easily thirty meters on a side, which gave it an amazingly high ceiling and a strangely deep and terraced floor. Looking up, Kaleb could see a Mystic Stone the size of his entire body hovering just below the top corner of the ceiling, providing a soft, diffuse blue light.  There were hard-light paths starting around the perimeter of the room, leading up to solid stone platforms held in place by mechanisms Kaleb could barely wrap his mind around. Each one had some kind of device or piece of furniture on it, though the purpose of some of them eluded him. To be honest, it looked less like a home and more like yet another Asuran laboratory. Turning his gaze from the ceiling to the floor,  he counted fourteen terrace steps down to what appeared to be a pool of water in the centre of the room, occupying the 'bottom-most' corner of the building's turned cube design.  Around the circumference of the room ran continuous Asura-design windows; high density force fields with a distortion added so those looking in or out can not see precisely what is there.
"It's um... very nice." He finally replied a bit hesitantly, stepping carefully in the room; each terrace was Asura-step scale, not human standard. If he tripped he'd no doubt fall all the way down into that pool of water in the bottom of the room. "So-o... this is where you keep your stuff? Kinda looks like another lab." "Well it IS a lab, silly." Miriya chuckled, crossing the room to a particular section of wall. A portion of the panels making up the wall and floor rotated at her approach, recombining to form a table and sink. Beside that, a cupboard slid into place from where the gaps were left by the panels, as well as a larger cube-shaped artifact half again as large as the diminutive Asura. "But it's also my home. I paid top-gold to get the constructor golem krewes to come out this far from Rata Sum and build it for me. All to my very demanding specifications." Kaleb nodded, exploring the room. He stepped up to one of the hardlight paths and experimentally tested it with an armoured toe. When it didn't give under his weight or the weight of his armour, he shook his head. Fancy Asuran gizmos. This was one of the reasons he was a soldier and not an engineer or inventor. "I see. So, why are we here now?" Miriya washed her hands in the sink, drying them in a device that clicked out of the side of the sink unit, and turned to face him. "We're here to relax and have a drink, and to be refreshed. Naturally." "Uh-huh?..." He crossed his arms, raising an eyebrow at her, a disbelieving look on his unshaven face. "If that's so then why's the rest of the group not here? Doesn't seem rightly fair to enjoy..luxury...without our friends." She made an exasperated sound, running her fingers back through her slicked back, molten lava-colored dreadlocks. With a flick of a wrist she sent the sink back into the wall, as well as the cupboard, but the larger artifact remained present in the room. Counting off on her little fingers, she explained. "One: Dhangalor is more interested in learning how to make his turrets and flame-thrower more efficient and effective. I wouldn't be surprised if we found him in three days, down in one of the weapons labs.  Hopefully he won't learn how to make mass-conversion generation devices; The idea that he could make a device that spawns grenades for him or unlimited turrets scares me more than your god Grenth." Tick: "Second. The moment we walked into the city, Slane disappearred. I wouldn't know where him or his...ugh.... partner... are even if I put a tracker on him. Which I don't have, incidentally." She stepped over to the large artifact, touching a blue power gem on it. The panels on the artifact slid open to either side, revealling a chilly, frosty interior, from which she drew a large, dark green bottle. "Third. Corvus is Priory. He's all about knowledge and technology. If he's not aiding Dhangalor, he's buried up to his nose -- a feat at that! -- in computer files and parchments and datapads." The little Asuran necromancer spun on her heel, presenting her treasure to the still suspicious human. The bottle looked old, and had a label that bore a very particular seal on it. The label was torn slightly near the base, and very, VERY worn... but there was enough to recognize the maker. ---SCALO- V-NERY. est. ---- "...and finally Fourth: I've been saving this bottle to drink with a human some day, and I feel it's the right time now. I trust you enough to enjoy this bottle and not squander it, nor to act inappropriately with it. I know how rare it is, and I think you know how rare it is." His jaw dropped, as did his arms. "Ascalon Vinery?! Did that come from the ruins of Ascalon??" He laughed nervously, facepalming. "Second most rare wine in all of Tyria, and it's just sitting in her...her...whatever. That cold thing..." "It's called a ReFridgerator. Prototype design." She looked at the device with a bit of concern. "Most of the time it keeps things chilled. Though there was one time I left a panel open and....well.. I had to defrost the place. Like, 'Claw of Jormag' kinda defrost." Still shaking his head, Kaleb smiled, and ran a hand through his close-cropped red-black hair. "Alright. You got my attention. Ascalonian wine, and a relaxing evening with a friend. I can do that, easily." Miriya grinned, and put the bottle on the top of the fridge before walking across the room to a green square on one of the terraces. "Do you mind if I get comfortable? This armor is nice, but compared to my own clothes, I always find it confining and itchy." She stepped on the square and a series of panels slid up around her, covering her to the neckline. She continued talking as she changed, the sound of shifting cloth coming from behind the barriers. "It's such a relief to get off the road too. Sometimes I just want to come home, relax for a while, before my next project." "I understand the sentiment completely." Kaleb nodded, turning his back to her changing; even though she was completely hidden, he was still a gentleman. Even to Asura. He rubbed the back of his neck, feeling the muscles and bones creak a bit with tension. "Been a while since I've been home too. Or out of this gear." He stretched and shrugged. "Ah well. What can ya do?" The panels around her sliding down, Miriya stepped out of the 'booth' and straightened her tunic. "Well, what I CAN do is offer you the use of one of my guest booths to change. I'm sure I can cobble some basic clothing together from the info-net if you give me a few minutes." "You can do that?" He blinked, raising an eyebrow. Kaleb had no idea what an info-net was, but if he could just take his armour off for a few hours... "What do I need to do?" She pointed at the green square, tapping a nearby toe-button with her toe. The green square turned blue, and resumed flashing. "Just step on the square. I just turned the dimensions to 'human', so it'll cover more of you than it would have a moment ago." Kaleb stepped onto the square and waited for a second. The panels slid up again, this time up to HIS neck. There was just enough space inside for him to flex a bit. "Hey, this is neat, but... uh... can't exactly take my gear off in a space this small." "Don't worry about that. The booth does the dressing and undressing." She replied, a hard-light display open in front of her on the front of the booth. She flicked through diagrams and designs until she found a suitable one. "Ah here we go. Aaaannnndd..... ordered. Seven seconds delivery? What is this, the stone age??" "What?" "Oh, nothing. System seems slow, that's all." She shrugged and moved a new screen up in front of her. "Just one last thing; full body scan for fit accuracy. Otherwise when it goes to remove your gear, it might...uh...remove body parts instead. Not exactly a smart system." "WHAT?!" Kaleb started to fidget, staring around at the panels in horror. "Take it easy! I only have one scar from a mis-scan! I don't want you to lose anything important!" That was enough to get him to freeze solid, staring straight ahead. His adam's apple bobbed in fear as he swallowed heavily. Inside the booth, a panel flipped open on all four walls, revealling a golem-eye. Flat green light played out from these eyes, scanning Kaleb up to his neck, and down to the soles of his boots. There was a quiet 'ding' and the eyes flipped shut. Next, a set of waldo arms rose out of the floor, sliding along a series of control crystals built into the seams of the chamber, and unfolding when they reached certain predefined points. Magitechnical fingers and drivers unfolded from these waldoes, and set about removing his armour, piece by piece, carefully drawing each piece back into the floor. "Miriya.... This is weird..." Kaleb muttered uneasily as his armour appeared to be disintegrating around him. "Am I going to get my stuff back in one piece? This...thing won't like, mash it into a scrap cube or something will it?" "Oh don't be a big baby." She replied, watching the readouts. Everything was going as planned. The monitors indicated a rapidly increasing percentage of armour removal, leaving a rather bare looking Kaleb underneath. A smile quirked her mouth, and without saying a word, she flicked a toggle switch visibly with her right hand, while her left hand hooked under the display and pressed a small red button. For....posterity. Yeah, that's it. For study. She told herself, as a flash blinded Kaleb in the booth from all sides. "What was that?!" He asked worriedly, down to his boxer shorts within the booth. "Hmm? Oh nothing. Sensor glitch." She replied almost distractedly, as she copied the scan file into another section of her database, under heaviest quantum encoding that she could get, and then proceeded to delete the original. "Nothing to worry about. It should be done now. If you reach out in front of you, you'll find some clothes on a little shelf. They were just transported from Rata Sum via micro-gate, so...uh...they might feel a little fuzzy. Residual dimensional static and all that." Kaleb indeed did find the clothing, folded neatly on a small shelf. As he picked it up, the walls of the booth slid back on all sides, extending planes as they did so to keep his privacy intact. Clearly the machine somehow intuited his need for movement space. A moment later and he had slid on the Asuran-designed human-size clothing. "Hmm...very nice material. This isn't wool, is it? I've not felt anything this soft before." "It's Jungle silk. We harvest it from the spiders and wurms. They might be dangerous monsters, but they can be quite useful for natural materials." She smiled, as the walls of the booth finally slid back into the floor. Seeing him fully dressed again, she tipped her head to the side, crossing her arms, and considered him. "Hmmm....Well, they don't look too bad on you. Perhaps I should have gotten the shorts too, so you could replace those human ones you have on." "Huh?" Kaleb was checking out his new duds in a reflection, when he realized what she'd just said. "You didn't see me in my shorts, did you?" "What? Oh no...no no!" Miriya flushed, shaking her head rapidly and holding up her hands in denial. "No no... That's not what I meant! I just meant I should have completed the set! That's all! Really!" His raised eyebrow made her flush even pinker, and she quickly turned away, running up one of the hard-light paths to her cupboard for glasses. Once she was certain he couldn't see her, she let herself exhale heavily. All that work, and she nearly flubbed it up! Returning with the glasses, she called up a table and hovering chairs out of another wall, placing the glasses on the table and pouring them a glass of wine each. "Now that you are... comfortable...Hehe, about that wine I mentioned?" **** "...And that's when I told him, I told him 'How could I have possibly have punched out your son, when he was already unconscious from the booze?'” Kaleb pointed out, and mimed an unconscious man, slumping on his chair and lolling his tongue out of his mouth. Miriya was doubled over laughing, slapping the table top in mock surrender and nearly knocking her wineglass off it. “Oh, by the Alchemy! How in Tyria did you ever get out of that situation?” She asked when she gained enough composure back, tears of laughter still streaming from her large green eyes. She continued to laugh and snicker as she tried to control it. The last two hours after they started to drink had been a blur. The lovely Ascalonian Wine had gone from a full bottle... to the dregs, which were swiftly being drained by a half-toasted Kaleb. He slammed the bottle onto the tabletop, and grinned. “Well you see, this big ol’ Norn, he thinks he’s defending his son’s honor or something, so he’s all puffed up and about to go Bear on me or somethin’... and then he looks over at his son, sees him facedown in his own drool, a shiner on his face that I claim came from the table as he fell... and he just deflates like a balloon. He shakes that big top-knotted head of his and hauls his son up by his backstraps, and just says ‘Yeah. Yeah, I can definitely see that. Boy hasn’t learned to hold his lager yet. Sorry if he bothered you.’ “ “No... No WAY.” Miriya’s jaw dropped. “You got to be kidding me.” Kaleb shook his head, sitting back and looking smug. “Nope. That’s what he said. He actually apologized for his son’s behaviour. Didn’t realize I had slugged that freakin’ twerp for his talk about how wussy--” He slurred it wuzzy “--humans are, and laid that kid out. I’m just glad it turns out he was drinkin’ age. Couldn’t use that bluff if he wasn’t.” “Cog’s gears, Kaleb, you definitely got guts. Standing up to a Norn in his hometown bar like that.” Miriya shook her head, and rubbed her eyes a bit. “I’d have had to call in my minions if that’d happened to me.” “And you woulda been squished for it.” Kaleb replied somberly, staring at her. “The moment they see your eyes and hands do that glow-thing, they would have flattened you with a damned boot. Not many like Necros these days.” “True, true...” Miriya nodded, levity completely gone. She traced the rim of her glass with a dark green-painted nail. “What about you? Do you like Necros?” He pondered for a moment. “Well, I don’t mind them... I don’t mind most anyone. But if they’re undead, I kinda mind them. Orrian and all that crap. But I don’t mind Necros that use Grenth’s gift for good.” She nodded, still circling the glass, an odd expression on her face. “That’s good, that’s good. Um,” She paused, flicking her eyes up to him for a moment to read his face before looking aside. “So....what about me? Do you like me? I mean, uh, I’m a Necromancer, after all.” He nodded, and thought about it for a second. “Well, duh, of course I like you. We’re teammates! I might not know how the Whispers operate, but if the Pact teamed us together, they must see something there, in our dossiers! And we work really well in combat together, as well as in info-gathering. Yeah, I like you. Of course I do, Miriya!” Miriya forced a smile at him, laughing along with him for a moment, before whispering off to the side, almost to herself. “That’s not what I meant...” "I hate to ask, but, do you have anything more like this wine?" Kaleb asked, tipping the dregs into his glass. He made a face, somewhere between concerned and goofy. "I mean, if we're going to keep drinking that is. I'm finally buzzed enough that I feel comfortable without my armour!" She laughed in spite of herself, in spite of the disappointment of his previous answer, but she steeled herself, hopping off her floating seat and heading for the refrigerator unit again. Looking inside she hemmed and hawed, listing things off. "Let's see, we've got that vile concoction that Colacokaia, that Hylek potionmaster forced upon me, we have indigo formula, and Sunny D....AH, here we go." With a triumphant, if a little unbalanced swing, she held the bottle up for his view. "It's... uh... says something about champagne. I forget where I got this from." He took the bottle from her, raising an eyebrow appreciatively as he considered it. "Not bad, but we can't just go chugging a bottle of champagne. That's more of a sipping kind of thing, in a relaxed situation. It's why nobles drink it at their 'parties' or whatever." He made a little, foppish, flippant gesture with his fingers and stuck out his tongue that made her grin. "You mean we should relax more? I thought we were pretty relaxed already!" Miriya laughed, hands on her short hips. "Any more relaxed and I'd probably be asleep!" Kaleb laughed and shook his head, putting the bottle on the table. "Nah, nah. I mean it wouldn't be good for sitting here at this table, trading dirty stories and reliving old fights. It's more...civilized a drink, I guess." The diminutive Asura pondered for a moment, before an idea struck her. "I got it! Come over here." She led him down the terraced interior of her home to the square shaped pool of water occupying the 'bottom' corner of the cube, and with a flourish indicated the gently lapping blue water. "Ta-da!" "What?... it's a pool of water." He replied, nonplussed. He crossed his arms and looked at her, confused. "Is there supposed to be something in it?" "Yes!" Miriya grinned, tugging at his pantleg. "Us!" She caught herself, and released his pantleg, coughing a bit. "I mean, it's not just a pool of water. I configured this corner to be either a hot spring or a cool bath, depending on what I felt like." "Really? You can do that?" He blinked, and considered the square of water. It was roughly his height on all sides, and he couldn't tell how deep it was based on the terracing and false-depth illusion of the shifting waters. "So....what, we should sit in it while we drink the champagne?" "Well, yeah?" Miriya shrugged and smiled, before running around the square to a panel on the edge of one of the stairs. After fiddling around with the controls, she pushed a red blinking square, and, much to her delight, the pool suddenly erupted into gentle bubbles. "Ah ha! There we go. Jaccuzzi." "Ja-whatzee?" "Nothing." She tested the water with a toe, smiling at the temperature, before turning and hopping up a few steps on the terrace. "Just one problem though; Our clothes. Shouldn't get them wet. Those'd get very itchy and kinda ruin my pool to boot." "So...what?" Kaleb knelt down and dipped his fingers into the water. "We'll strip down to our skivvies? This is as warm as that Norn hot spring...you know the one, in Lornar's Pass?" "You mean Wayfarer Foothills. Zelechor Hot Springs." Miriya frowned, shaking her head. "You are always so bad with locations. I'm surprised you get anywhere." "Hey, my hammer takes me wherever I need to go." He smiled, standing up. "Now, is there another booth, or where should I put this stuff?" "Oh! Anywhere!" She grinned, waving a hand at the terraces around them. "Just leave it high enough to not get wet." He nodded, and started shedding clothes, tossing them onto a higher step. Miriya stared for a moment, feeling the blood rush to her face, before she realized she WAS staring, and quickly looked aside. "Uh, I suppose I better...um...get ready too!" It took her almost no time to get rid of her simple tunic top and light pants, leaving her bathing suit-like bodysuit as the only remaining piece of clothing. It was hot pink and white; not her usual colors, and for a moment, she was horrified and embarrassed by the dichotomy between her normal dress and her bodysuit. Please don't let him say anything about the bodysuit. Please don't let him say anything about... "Nice bodysuit you got there. Didn't figure you for the color pink." He smirked, settling into the warmed water. SCRAP! Miriya swore internally, flushing almost as pink as her suit. She immediately leapt into the pool, covering herself to her neck in water while keeping her arms wrapped around herself. "I-I..er... I forgot about the color...You wear a body suit most of your life as an Asura, and you kinda forget about it!" He shrugged, taking the champagne bottle and looking around. "Uh, do you have any wine glasses or champagne glasses down here? The others we left up on your table up there." "Oh! Yeah... Um... Hang on, I'll go get them." She hopped out of the water, moving as fast as her little legs could carry her; the faster she moved, the less he'd see the pink suit. A few moments later, she slid into the water beside him, and placed the glasses on the exposed step behind them. "Here." "Thank you muchly." Kaleb smiled, and poured them each a generous portion of champagne. That done, he handed one of the champagne flutes to her, and saluted her with it. "To good friends, good drinks, and faking it like high society fops!" Miriya giggled, and tipped her glass so it dinged against his lightly, the pure crystal note a pleasant sound. "To one of the best teammates I've ever had, and possibly my best friend in all of Tyria." They both sipped. "Aw, that was sweet, Miriya." Kaleb smiled, scratching the back of his head after he finished his sip. "I knew we were friends, but I didn't know you thought of me as a best friend." "Well, I do, you big lug." She smirked and gave his arm a playful punch. She put her glass behind her, one step up on the shelf, and rubbed an ear in thought. "You never judge me based on my size, even when we first were introduced, never thought of me as weak or cowardly for being a magic user...never turned away when you learned what kind of magic I used, or what it sometimes does to me..." She shivered a bit, wrapping her arms around herself. "Using the Death Shroud is so intoxicating but... There are times I worry that I'll lose myself to it. And that I might end up no better than an Orrian." Miriya rubbed a tear away from her eye with a finger. Damn the alchohol... it was making her resolve fall away. Already she could feel the depression sinking in again. Soon she'd have to retreat to her room and spend the rest of the night getting herself under contro-- Her thoughts were interrupted by Kaleb wrapping an arm around her and drawing her up into his lap into a hug. It wasn't a comradely hug, like he might have done outside in the cities, or a brotherly hug as he'd done to her before in celebration of things. It was just a hug, but it was much more than just a hug, in a way she couldn't define. It took her a moment of stunned shock to respond, but she finally relaxed, wrapping her smaller arms as best she could around him and hiding her face in his chest. After a few moments, Kaleb spoke. "Miriya, don't ever doubt yourself. Don't ever doubt your skills; I know I don't. You mastered a fantastically powerful magic few dare to. I read the story about how you came to the attention of the Whispers: You made those Inquest pay for what they did. I think you might be one of the most powerful people I've ever had the pleasure of knowing." Miriya listened, and smiled sadly, closing her eyes as she realized he was only seeing her skills and abilities, and not her. So close...so very close... she lamented, still fighting the urge to cry. He just doesn't see... "I've never been scared of you or your skills, Miriya. Not even when you used the Death Shroud. Because I know you'd never harm anyone you cared about." He gently stroked her braids and ears with one hand, not letting her draw away with the other. "You're an amazing person, Miriya, and I think that no matter what, you'll accomplish anything you set your mind to." Miriya's eyes snapped open at that compliment. She quickly mulled it over in her head, and slowly withdrew her arms from the embrace. "Miriya?...are you okay?" Kaleb asked, concerned at her silence and her retreat from the hug. She had her head turned down, so he couldn't see the expression on her face at all. "....I can accomplish anything eh?" She whispered, half to him, half to herself, staring at her hands where they braced against his bare chest. To Kaleb's ear, he could hear the quiet wavering in those few words. "There's just one thing I can't seem...to do..." "What would that be?" He asked softly, wondering about his friend. He could see her shaking quietly, as if she were cold, though the water was quite warm. Her small digits reflexively twitched where she had them on his chest. "Is it something I can help with?" She half-laughed, half-sobbed, shoulders rocking with the effort to resist. Would she take the chance? Would it do anything, mean anything? What do I even have to lose? "Yeah....it's...something you could help me with." She whispered in a shaky voice. "What is it? You can tell me." NOW. "This." She replied, and quickly tilted her head up to catch him in a kiss. Her arms flew around his neck, half to support herself, half to keep him from snapping his head back in surprise as her lips found his. Miriya kept her eyes tightly shut to avoid looking him in the face, seeing the shocked, perhaps betrayed expression on his face as she broke through the friend-barrier to get what she wanted. At contact, she felt that electric charge that she always felt directed at him. In other situations, it had been when he'd touched her shoulder, or playfully flicked her ear with a finger. Or when he hauled her up to sit on his shoulder while they travelled. Little moments of contact, each with an electric pulse, at least to her. They were all friendly gestures, so she put off how they felt, guilty for feeling more. This moment though...the electric shock was so many magnitudes greater...but so was the accompanying guilt. I just tricked my best friend...she cried inside as she kissed him. I just tricked him, got him drunk, and now I'm stealing a kiss that wasn't mine to have...he's going to stay so far away now... her thoughts then fell apart into unrequited sorrow. Slowly, Miriya broke the kiss, letting her hands slip from his neck, and settling down into the warm water of the pool. She never looked him in the eyes; she just turned to the side and curled up on herself, arms around her knees, looking away. Looking ashamed. "I-I'm sorry." She whispered, sniffling. "I-I'm sorry I did that...I just... I wanted t-to..." "Hey. Hey Miriya." Kaleb's soft voice made her ear twitch. With her eyes clenched closed, she almost jumped when she felt his finger under her chin, turning her face up to look at him. Her green, almond-shaped eyes opened in terrified surprise, and she stared at him, pleadingly, but so badly scared of what the question might be. "...For how long, Miriya?" He asked. Her eyes searched his for any sign of anger or betrayal...or disgust. It wasn't long ago historically that humans thought they were the center of all things and that all were below them. Nothing like that was in his eyes. Only warmth and concern. "For how long have you been holding yourself back like that?" There was a moment of silence as she processed his question. Her face alternately lit up with happiness, but seemed so ready to break into full on tears at the very same moment. Her mouth almost stretched into a smile, though it was a shaky one, and a tear escaped her eye, sliding down her smooth cheek. She let out a half-chuckle, half-cry, before shaking her head. "....since...almost since the first time we met." "You entered the room, smiled, and introduced yourself...you and that big dumb iron hammer of yours. " She laughed a little, staring up at him. "I didn't know what to think. I was told there'd be a human on the team, but I expected some dour soldier...instead, you walked in and made me laugh." Miriya reached up and gently touched his hand where it cupped her cheek. "You didn't bat an eye at my Necromancy...you joked with me and made me feel welcome when we camped out on missions...I'm not sure, but I think you even snapped me out of the Death Shroud that one time, by...just being there." She turned her head in towards the palm of his hand and gave it a soft kiss. "I never thought I'd be attracted to a non-Asura. Never even entered my mind...till you. Once I realized that, I had to get your attention some how. Even if for a moment." A sigh escaped her. "When I learned we had business in Rata Sum, I contrived a way for us to be alone. I introduced Dhangalor to a weaponsmith friend, and I lent Corvus my card to the datablocks in the archives." "And Slane?" Kaleb asked. "Didn't have to do a thing. He just disappeared." She chuckled ruefully. "For all I know he's in this room and cloaked, watching my humiliation." The Asura turned her head to look him in the face. "I tricked you, to get you to come here. To get you alone... to get you drunk..." Another tear fell. "I-I'll understand if you want to leave, or if you never want to talk to me again...I just, I just..." Miriya was interrupted once again by Kaleb. This time however, he cut her off by giving her mouth something else to do. Eyes wide in surprise, it took her a moment to realize he was kissing her this time, and when that registered, she all but melted into his arms. "My poor Miriya..." Kaleb sighed after the kiss was broken. He stroked her cheek, rubbing a tear away. "I didn't see the signs...didn't know how you felt. I honestly thought you thought I was a... what's the term?" "...Bookah?" She chuckled feebly. He smiled. "A Bookah. That's it. I know, and I knew, that I could never match you mentally in damned near anything. But I didn't see all the times, all the little things you said and did...till now." "....and now?" "I'm not going to send you away, or ignore you, for starters." He smirked, raising an eyebrow. "And I'm not going to stop being your best friend either. So you don't need to worry your pretty little head about that." Miriya couldn't repress the giggle, which earned a broad grin from Kaleb. "That being said, I gotta admire your little plan. You did catch me off guard with that kiss...but...honestly it wasn't that bad." Her jaw dropped, and she stared at him as he winked. "It was actually pretty good. I had no idea you were that good a kisser." "I...I-ya...wha..." "You know, I think in the back of my head, I always wondered what it'd be like to kiss you. You had those lovely lips, and that black lipstick..." He grinned. "I never would have thought you'd have had a crush on a simple human." That earned him a smack to the shoulder. "You! I... I ARGH!..." She reached up and grabbed his cheeks so that he was looking her straight in the eyes. "Simple human?! Says the guy who goes and rips the scrappin' ARM off a Destroyer troll and beats it to death with it?! And then has the club at the end of that arm turned into a new hammer head?" She glared at him, teeth grinding, a low growl in her throat, before kissing him again. "You're just damned lucky I think you're cute, big Bookah." She purred, stroking his cheek, feeling the stubble under her nail. "Oh, now we're name-calling?" Kaleb chuckled, wrapping his arms around her waist. "Or is that supposed to be my pet name now?" "Mm, no...not a pet name." She frowned a bit, before smirking. "How about a code name for in public? Others might think I'm insulting your intelligence, but you'd know I'm not?" "Works for me...Bookah never really insulted me anyway." He shrugged. "Always made me think 'Book-reader' or something. So coming from an Asura, it doesn't actually sound like an insult." "Good...Then that's what I'll nickname you in public; Big Bookah. MY Big Bookah." She licked her lips playfully, her emerald eyes examining him so close up. "Mm... That does sound good."

Castrum Fluminis - Would your OC drop any loot at the end of the fight? If so, describe them (tokens, tomes, weapons, crafting reagents, mounts, etc.)
>>OC TRIAL BOSS ASKS
Ahru/Vox Anima would drop Aether Weapons (and Aether Totems) that have a decidedly celestial appearance to them. Gently curving silver accented metals with glimmering aether-blue/green energy that emanate from the weapon when drawn. 
Aether Totem; The most devout of the Servants of the Light carry hand-carved figures and runes on a pilgrimage following the Warrior of Lights journeys, offering prayers and making sacrifices along their path to embue it with aether. No two are precisely the same, yet all seem to resonate with one another…
She also drops Crimson Cloth; Scraps of the crimson veil worn around Vox Anima’s aetherial form, it seems to be woven of some heretofore unknown fabric that is highly aether-conductive. Appearing gossamer and delicate, it is nevertheless difficult to work with - carelessness resulting in either a volatile burst of stored aetheric energy, or the cloth dissipating into thin air. The Crimson Cloth can be used to craft Howling Aether Weapons that have a distinctly more cosmic-looking glow to them, the aetheric blues and greens twisting into purples, reds, and blacks, and spotted with flecks like stars that trail from the weapon. It can also be used to craft the Aether Barding, which has similar elegantly curving silver armor and vibrantly flowing wisps of aether that shift gradually through the above colors. 
Tumblr media
In my mind, this content takes place during 4.X, so its doubly fitting that her mount should be a doggo (it would have been a doggo anyway lbr). I think it’d basically be a cross between the GW2 Jackal mount skins Shrine Guardian and Stardust. Mostly the former, wrapped like the other kamuys in aetheric flame of the shifting, cosmic colors seen in the later. (Sample 2, Sample 3) Transcendent Kamuy; Believed by the Servants of Light cult to be a holy beast beloved by the subject of their worship, this wolf was fatted on a great feast before being offered up to the Goddess.
“Oh, how the heavens rejoice and howl for her advent!” - L’sinah Ravi, Servant of the Light
(As a joke(?), Arsh drops a Zodiark mount and Ahru drops a Hydaelyn mount. Just a big crystal the rider clings to and hovers around on. Not to scale.)

More stuff I’d like to see in GW2!
This is some more game mechanic stuff I’d love to see.  Mostly dealing with professions!  I know, we’ve got elite specs and we already have 9 professions, but there’s nothing wrong with having more.  Mix things up a bit to increase the diversity of game play.
And before anybody hits reply and tries to explain why these wouldn’t be possible, I am aware of the fact that there is a slim to none chance (and slim left town) that these dreams and wishes will never see the light of day.  But I can dream, and I will dream, because sometimes things are cool and you just wanna see ‘em.
First off!
Monk
Now, before anybody says that monks existed as a GW profession, back it up a bit and listen.  I’m not talking about monks that eventually got mixed in with guardians.  I’m talking about the monk we all think about when we watch movies like Iron Monkey or Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon or any film like that.  I’m talking about the fighting monk, who relies on their fists or a bow staff.
This would be a light armour class, most often with the person wearing robes or just a loin cloth, foot and hand wraps and maybe a chest piece (mostly for women).  Their combat would focus almost entirely on melee with either a bo staff or their fists.  Ranged attacks might include a short bow or even a new variation of daggers that involves throwing.
Utility skills would focus completely on disciplining the monks mind and body to become a veritable mountain of strength, endurance, and fortitude.  Monks would be able to shrug off attack damage with ease while stunning, crippling and blinding foes.
As far as elite specs go for this profession, I have two in mind.
Wandering Monk
The wandering monk is battle tested and often hires himself out as a mercenary.  Most often these wandering monks were either kicked out of their monastery or they chose a life of solitude on the road.  Being so secluded, they have had to hone their skills for combat by taking up a new weapon; the greatsword.  With this weapon they can slash their opponents and still stun them by using the pommel of the weapon as a bludgeoning attack.
Drunken Master
Considered the outcasts of society, and almost always intoxicated, these monks fight more for entertainment than actual honour.  Their day usually consists of waking up, drinking, fighting for coin which they then use to buy food and more alcohol.  While they are outcasts, citizens often rely on them to keep their smaller communities safe, as they sort of become the standard protectors of small farming or trade areas.  With this in mind, the monk will always carry an ale stein or a jug of wine into combat (off hand focus), often taking a huge swig before each punch.
Demolitions Expert
A heavy armour profession that is all about destroying infrastructure.  These guys are tanks and often go into battle carrying a hammer or greatsword, a rifle, or a pistol and shield.  They exist to follow orders and to destroy their targets so their comrades can carry on the fight.
Not only do they have access to a wide array of bombs, but they also can call in airstrikes, use flares to signal tank fire, and can build siege weaponry.
Demolitions Experts can also become extremely focused on aspects of their craft.
Bomb Disposal Expert
It would be foolish to think that the enemy doesn’t have their own demolitionist. The job of a bomb disposal expert is to find explosives and defuse them.  To that end, they carry with them a wrench (off hand focus) to help dispose of enemy artillery.
Tank Driver
The tank driver is pretty self explanatory.  They drive tanks, put them into position, and fire at targets with precision accuracy.  As crammed as it is inside a tank, it means that weaponry is limited.  A dagger becomes the tank driver’s best friend.
That’s all I’ve got right now, mostly because I couldn’t come up with anything in game for medium armour that pretty much already exists.  But for me, it’d be cool to see some new professions to create a bit more diversity in game play.  And as I said before, I realize the difficulty in creating these professions, and how much the Demo Expert is borrowed from engineer.  The difference between Demo Expert and Engineer is easy; Engineers often use their skills to help their party out directly.  The Demo Expert doesn’t.  The Demo Expert is all about spreading as much direct destruction in as short a time as possible.
But let me know what you think.  I believe that there’s some obvious additions needed for both, and a lotta tweaks to make them work out right.

Current Activities - Conan Exiles #4
So I just posted my latest story “Assassination at the Summit”, and while I am proud of its contents, it has some background information. Basically starting at  "Her outside clanmates had been navigating..." was practically written in a blind fury. I’ve calmed down now but this is my blog and I feel like ranting. First off, the character depicted in that story, Dey Yin, is an actual player. She’s an excellent writer and I strive to reach to her level of para-posting, as they give excellent opportunities to reply and react and I want to offer the same to other players when they interact with me. Also, she loves the story.
Tumblr media
I am happy with the results as there was some effort put into it. Even in my blind fury, the last few parts turned out well. I’ve also been trying to work on my verb tense. Either I missed that class in school or over a decade of roleplaying has completely rewritten how my brain perceives verb tense. You might notice that my tenses swap between past and present, sometimes within the same line. This is why writers have editors, people. Anyway it was mostly a background plot, like many of my stories are. Basically I like to lay some groundwork before I claim things. I do not simply want to claim to be a whiskey baroness, I want to actually show it. I want people to see, through a narrative, the effort put in importing a whiskey from the outside world. The server is too small for specific events to surround these kinds of things, so I compensate by writing short stories instead. Quick aside; I actually did host an RP event with my character announcing the existence of her clan. It went very well with around ~9 attendees.
Tumblr media
Whiskey and fun were had by all. Anyway.  I spoke of this plot in-character with others and another player on the server, someone I’ve been trying to arrange RP with for... years, I think, across a few MMO’s. We’ve met on an ERP gathering website (ya’ll know the one) but our interactions could never quite get sexual. They’re a good writer and roleplayer and they definitely value quality over fluff. I can respect that. We had some meetups in GW2 but maybe we just don’t make characters that gel well because we just couldn’t quite get to the fluffy stuff. Anyway she happens to follow me on CE. Fair enough. No prompting, she just saw that I was playing a lot and figured she’d hop on the ship. She’s doing well on the server, has a whole clan, etc. Good for her. But upon hearing about this plot of mine, her character offers some... assistance. Instead of being a simple assassination, she wants it to be poison. She insists, having an IC personal stake against Khitan generals. Fair enough, but then she hands Livia an actual quest. Get three specific items. The items in question are in fact part of the several artifacts you need to remove your bracelet and “win” the game (which deletes your save file by the way). Not the whole thing, just three of them. The scourgestone was probably the easiest, and I had some IC help from a guy. It was all great fun. Admittedly I was salty at first, adding extra steps to a straightforward plotline. Then I got to writing it out and I enjoyed the idea of dungeon delving being written into it. It started to feel like an actual epic on the likes of Beowulf, Clash of the Titans, and indeed, actual Conan books and lore. Sword and sorcery. I’m not claiming to write as well as any of those (though I’m pretty sure the Conan movies didn’t have any writers, holy shit), but it started to FEEL like an epic RPG story. I didn’t have it completely written out but it had about three full paragraphs worth. Might have eked out an extra two before... bullshit happens. The salt starts to come back when the player drags their feet about getting the last item for the poison crafting. They are focusing on their clan base and that looks fine and all, but a boss hunt only needed to be asked in global “anyone want to help?”, 3-4 people would have done fine and we had 3 at any given moment, each of us with powerful weapons and armor. We could have gotten it at any time. Again, fair on them to a certain extent. I’m sure they have a job and when they were online, she was likely wrangling her clanmates and building assignments. I get that, but... again, we could have had this wrapped up in 15 minutes at any given point. Eventually my character tries to meet with another newbie on the server (as she does) but finds them already at this person’s clan base. Figure it’d be a good time for Livia to check in on the poison and see when we can go hunting but... Well. Let me give you quick context on this person’s character. John Mulaney has a comedy set talking about his father and how straight-laced he tends to be. He recalls a story (true or not, who can tell?) where John himself and some siblings (I think? Other kids?) were screaming for McDonalds. The father pulls into the drive through, orders a single black coffee, and drives away. John states something to the effect of “in retrospect, that was the funniest thing I’ve seen in my entire life”. Well, this person’s character is basically that guy. But a woman. Livia already has stated that she’s got quite the stick up her ass. Anyway they’ve traded barbs as you might expect, Livia being more of a carefree roll-with-punches and make-money kind of woman. Livia drops an offhanded line about “Maybe I’ll just get my people to slit the general’s throat and save me a headache [in dealing with this character]”. All we get in response is “So be it” and are then soon banned from her stronghold. That’s when I lowkey lose it. I don’t explode, I don’t rant, I don’t PM them. In fact, there’s almost no OOC communication between me and this person and I think it worked against us. She never once asked me permission to force a poison subplot in my story. The character just “strongly insisted” and Livia was like “fine, let’s make the thing” and I went off to get two of the three items THAT DAY. A week goes by, then that bullshit happens. What a waste of my time. I keep thinking back to a roleplaying guide I posted on this server’s website. It’s the same one I’ve copied and pasted across many MMO’s I’ve roleplayed on. There’s a section in there that talks about IC drama having no affect on OOC, or it shouldn’t. I’ve spent many years separating IC and OOC, often times whispering people after an OOC argument of like “That was fun, thanks for the RP!” That kind of thing.  Unfortunately, this whole thing did have OOC consequences. The entire plot and story was essentially a gift to the player for being active, friendly, fun to interact with and being a good writer. I wanted to give the player and character something they would appreciate, but instead was delayed by a player insisting on adding a step. And then never stepped forward. It wasted my time and theirs and got in the way of that RP. Thus, I feel like my anger while perhaps not entirely justified, still makes sense in this context. My time was wasted, and now I’m possibly barred from RP with that person and their clan, or at least by going to their base. Not a single word OOCly was spoken between us throughout this. I remember PMing them the paragraph that featured them, asking if there was anything that needed to be changed. They said no, it was fine for the context and remaining an enigma. Fair enough.  That was it. She never asked me permission to bullrush into our plot, nor did I outwardly refuse it. I thought nothing of it, and indeed as I mentioned earlier I did have some fun writing out dungeon adventures and Livia’s general hatred of the jungle biome. There was fun stuff there, class adventuring that I don’t write nearly enough about. Then it was all just negated because the other character absolutely refused to meet mine halfway in terms of diplomacy. Livia tried. I tried. So starting from “Her outside clanmates had been navigating the unknown country...” in that story, it was actually a rush job in fuming rage, so much rage my chest actually hurt for a few minutes. I do think it turned out well but I do believe I could have padded more with describing the architecture, culture, the nuances of Livia’s clan navigating the cities, dodging police and bribing informants. There’s a lot I could have done there but the story could have been done a week ago and instead I was left hanging because one player bullrushed into my plot and didn’t want to go kill a boss. I’m angry. I’m annoyed. Heavy sigh. Now, I still have two more stories to write. I have asked and received a new patron item (you can get some cosmetics if you donate to the server), a glowing polearm.
Tumblr media
It looks very badass, especially at night. Actually hurts if you look at it too long. It’s great. I have it named “Imbued Polearm” and I have no idea why or how Livia would be in possession of it. I just saw someone having glowing purple daggers and thought “...I still haven’t requested a weapon decal for my patron perks. I want that a lot.” Was thinking of a Ymir ritual but white and blue is his motif so I’m not sure that’d work. Derketo is the goddess of sex, not weapons, and would sooner imbue Livia was a penis to properly spread seed long before she’d give her followers a badass weapon. Next story will be a little easier to write. I discovered with some proper dying the reptile armor does not look half bad at all. The aforementioned guy friend says it looks better on females than males, and I believe it;
Tumblr media
Not sure why Tumblr blows that way the fuck up but there you go. Due to quality loss, it does look decent in-game. Definitely a “demon dragon slayer” type story to be had there. Was brainstorming that an alpha got tired of some adventurer killing all their babies at the spawning grounds... Next time Livia goes hunting she’d be in for quite the surprise.
All that and I didn’t even get into my clan growing and even having someone build me a proper stronghold.
Tumblr media
Currently can house 6 clanmates with a master bedroom for myself. I plan on adding another floor to make way for 4 more rooms as I tend to get members when Livia goes save newly exiled players from the river. It’s actually in that building the above party screenshot took place. (There’s currently two spare rooms, I believe. Hint hint, come join us.)

( Most of you do not know polish so I will translate : Achi : If I didn’t wake up you know what happend. Kokkuri: Inka, do not cry! Inka: But... Fucking Bifrost?! Achi: What??  Kokkuri : But you always wanted Bifrost. Inka: But I wanted to do it after Nevermore. Kokkuri: So you do one more! Achi: So you do one more! For me! ( obviously laughing while Inka cry ). You don’t need to do whole Bifrost for me. The Legend will be fine. Inka : Well fuck. Achi : You still love us, don’t you? Inka : Stop recording or your phone will learn to fly.)
To tell this story I need to start long before Guild Wars 2.
A teenager with no knowledge of English was playing Guild Wars 1 and this teenager was me that got so hooked up on this game like an adult me on a chocolate cake. But thanks to my fellow Polish-English dictionary I was able to understand English and game itself, discovering it every time I was doing any story or just talking with NPC. In same time I was playing some RPG website game that based on role-playing. Thanks to another player in that time I meet Achi. And we went together throughout quite a few games and a lot of fun.
And so years passed and Guild Wars 2 was coming in big steps, I was blabbing to her that ' HEY WE SHOULD PLAY TOGETHER!' but she was more sceptic about this game. So I waited. And waited. And thanks, God, Guild Wars 2 went free to play with Heart of Thorns! I made her like 'Try! You will like it! ' In that time I already made her join our guild team speak and slowly meet people on it. After 2 weeks of playing or even shorter, she bought Guild Wars 2 Heart of Thorns. That way I got one more person that I knew in game. But time was passing. I need to mention also another person Kokkuri. He is really important in that story too!
So with time flowing I made Achi go with me on her first guild meeting in Toruń, Poland about 2 years ago, she and I met our guild members and we had a lot of fun. Making jokes about the members and situations that were made. With time I wanted to give her something special and Kokkuri in same time wanted to make something for Fenus (another guild member) and Achi as they became friend really fast. In the end we got agreement. I am making Bifrost (at that stage I made one Bifrost back in the days when to get precursor you had to sit in the toilet and wish for the best) for Fenus and Kokkuri is making The Dreamer for Achi. I can tell you guys that road was full of plotting and instances of not saying what we are doing. We prepared everything with sending Legendaries as gifts and preparing small notes for them which both got really unexpected but hilarious results.
I can say that Achi reaction was the best thing ever the amount of O K*rwa and I will kill you was unreal.
But IF I KNEW WHAT KOKKURI AND ACZI DECIDED I WOULD THINK ONCE MORE ABOUT MY LIFE DECISIONS
After that or even in meantime I was already struggling with collecting stuff for Nevermore. I was crying on Teamspeak that I need to collect all the wood and I have enough of collecting it. Sometimes Achi sent me a little bit of elderwood like it was fine, I didn't suspect anything. After our guild anniversary 10th meeting in Gdańsk, Poland we had small like 'gathering' between me, Kokkuri, Robin(yet another guildmate) in Aczi place on Festival of Celtic Music in Będzin.
Normal day. We open our laptops to show what we gathered around ( I have a 5-year-old laptop so he is slow ) and Kokkuri was lecturing me and Aczik what we should sell out of our banks to have gold where my collector soul was like ' Noooo I need it for Nevermore '. Those two made me create GW2 Efficiency. Because my laptop told me that he can't open gw2 I borrowed Kokkuri laptop. I open up my dear account on his laptop and I needed to leave room to go get Robin who just arrived downstairs.
I am not sure how to... Describe it. I love them. I really love those two
TL;DR Yes. My two friends made me next Bifrost. I was crying when I saw it. I love those two people but sometimes I want to struggle them. Right now I am making The Bifrost for Aczi! Also do not worry Kokkuri ( I know you will read that ) I have something for you in making too!
Muhahahahaha She didn't expect me to be here, Hi guys I'm Kokkuri.
So she did say her part of this story so I guess I should tell you how it looked from our side of this small adventure. So let me now start from the beginning. I meet Inka through the guild wars 2 somewhere around 2014 and became friends quite fast, we played a lot together and she was always mentioning her best friend Achi so I became interested who's she is. Eventually, she joined our Teamspeak server and oh boy was I not prepared for her. She is one of the most amazing, loving and caring people I ever meet, and we became best friends in like matter of weeks which was strange and exciting to get soooooo attached to someone so fast. And so all three of us became very very close friends, sharing our crushes, seeking help and eventually meeting in person which to the outside it might have looked like were siblings because I was only like 17 at the time I first time meet Achik which is older by couple of years but to hell in our guild we have people over 50, bellow 16, female, male and no one give a damn because over internet it doesen't matter who you are because if your decent person with who you can lough, play and overally have a greate time then why not call them friends?
So back to the Bifrost story. It was somewhere around early January 2017 that I told myself I will get Legendary Armour and started collecting everything, Riding hard and overall farming so much to get everything before it will be dropped into the game. At around the same time, I finally learned the birthday date of the Fenus and smart me decided oh yeah let make him a legendary he would never ever get because he hates all of them. At the same time, Inka was saying that she wants to create a Legendary for Achik because of Inka (you do not question Inka logic because you will fall into such deep hole that even tangle depths would be looking like a Mount Everest).
So trolling me (muhahahahahaha) decided to troll Inka and at the same time create a gift for Achik and Fenus. The trolling was easy I knew Inka hated making Bifrost and that after she crafter her's and had what we called a curse of legendary (basically you don't want to play the game because you just don't, your too tired), and so I made her craft Bifrost but I was doing the collection for it and I would craft the Daydreamer and she would do the collection for it. I could hear her being frustrated and annoyed every time I mention her crafting the Bifrost (despite that we collected the materials together for both legendaries).
And so we did it somewhere in late April it was completed plus we also got enough gems to buy both of them an outfit to match the new weapons. Inka was worried how would we give them those items because if we sent the mail they will return it or sell the weapons and buy us something in return.
But I had a plan. It was simple I usually help my guildies in equipment management, doing the hardest achievement for people with too weak laptops (not looking in direction of Inka and Achi whose laptops are secretly calculators) and overall being a decent friend. I promised Achi to sort her equipment, sell the overflowing materials and make her life a bit easier, and when the time came I told her I will do it and I did !!! I managed to get her over 1000g by just selling excess materials. In Fenus case I just simply promised him to do one of the LS3 achievement he was struggling with and again I did it but also left something purple and account-bound.
And so the next day I got a message Kokkuri you d*ck, Twice!
Oh boy, that's a long story so I can just get into explaining the Bifrost for the Inka. A week or so after finishing the two legendaries Achi said to me that she wants to repay Inka by making something special for her and so I was in it again. Achi wanted to make her a focus or a sceptre dunno really but I had a plan, I always have a PLAN. There is this achievement in the game for account-binding two legendaries and I knew Inka was making Nevermore and I knew that Achi would help her collect the materials for it so I decided to make with Achi Bifrost. It was hilarious because whenever Inka was struggling with collecting the wood we would be sending between each other stacks of wood for collection, and then I would be hinting to her that were making Bifrost and that she should dismantle it for Nevermore. And so then Gdansk happened, That day was crucial, as it was supposed to be "revenge day" for legendaries. Achik bought Inka a birthday present and she packed it into layers and layers of bubble wrap, plastic wrapping and wrapping paper. I also did something like that but on a much smaller scale, but when Achik present was useful my how to say it lightly was in the wrong language... I bought her a manga and thought it was in English but apparently, it was in French so she had a hard time finding the proper translation.
SO yeah this gave us few more month of time to work on the Bifrost because she didn't have a clue that the birthday present wasn't a revenge but just a decoy. But this time we had a proper deadline, Achi told me that we have to have the Bifrost done before Festival of Celtic Music as she wants to surprise her and see her reaction in person. And again back to me with my plan, because I always have a PLAN. I decided that we won't raise her suspicion by trying to get an access to her account but by simply doing it when she will be occupied, but for this to succeed, there is someone else we need: Robin. Robin is our very quiet friend that promised to show up and we told him all about our plan and he had a simple job of distracting her long enough for us to mail the presents, account-bind and hide it.
The last step was for Inka to actually notice and so we made her make a gw2efficiency account so she would see a big spike and be like what the hell is happening. and the rest of the story you know from our friend Inka. Because it's in our guild spirit to gift each other some small or big presents to make the other one happy even if that means to craft of 3 legendary weapons in the span of nearly 6 months.
TL;DR I'm Kokkuri and after meeting Inka and Achi in Guild Wars 2 I became really good friends and became a mastermind behind 2 Bifrost and 1 Deydrimer because Kokkuri has a plan, he always has a PLAN.  
Ps. Oh Inka I know you will read it so be prepared because when I come back from the curse of the legendary I will start crafting a full bank tab of Bifrosts just for you and if your thinking I'm joking remember this Kokkuri has a plan, he always has a PLAN.  
// Kokkuri gave me permission to post it. IF not ask on Grzechu.2564 in GW2//

Majority of my followers know what Wakfu is, but not all know about the game: how many wounds it left in my heart, and everyone else’s. This post isn’t gonna be precisely explaining the wrongs that Wakfu did, I just wanted to mention that, in aftermath, it was a disaster of a game that left its most loyal players hurt, disappointed and immensely sad. I still keep meeting people who love this franchise, but can’t stand the game anymore since it’s.. Changed too much and didn’t stay enjoyable, to say mildly. I’m surrounded by, literally, traumatized veterans who look back at the good old days and shed tears. And I’ve been talking a lot about GW2 recently, not for no reason.
I want you to heal, just like I did. I mean.. I’m still hurt over Wakfu and I’ll stay this way forever, but I found a game where you can feel safe, loved, cared about. Devs in GW2 are humans who talk to us, who put smileys and memes in their posts, who hang out on reddit and ingame. This’s one of the major and striking differences between Wakfu and GW2. I’m still genuinely stunned by my own experience with customer support, I had a few troubles during my 1.5 years in GW2 and the response was not only fast and effective, it was HUMAN AND CUTE. I’m still not over it. Now that I’ve been invited to be a creative partner.. I’m still not over it too. They shower their regular players and content creators in gentle attention and kindness. I cry. During the 5+ years of being the most active and visible artist in Wakfu fandom, literally promoting it with thousands of drawings, I’ve never got a tiniest bit of official recognition. Not even a single placement on official media. When I took part in contests, I never won. Overall it’s been a one-way street. During my first 1.5 years in GW2, I’ve been noticed, picked up by the team, pampered and spoiled to the point of barely believing it’s true. That’s my personal experience, but it should indicate Anet’s general attitude towards the players. They. Do. Care.
I just wanna try and convince more ex-Wakfu players to give GW2 a shot. The two games are different in the visual and core gameplay aspects, yes, transitioning from an isometric 2D turn-based to a 3D, real-time game was somewhat harsh, but boy, how glad I am that I did it.
There’s EVEN MORE TEXT, brace yourselves. :D In GW2, I found everything that I wish was in Wakfu.
GW2 is a true sandbox. You log in, you do whatever the fuck you want. Level your first (second, 12th, 33rd, 68th) char? Grind mobs and dungeons? NO. Run around, look for events, explore, literally everything you do and everywhere you go, gives xp. You can level via crafting! Which, btw, is relevant throughout the entire game, unlike in Wakfu.
You do have dungeons of two kinds, and you CAN farm them if you want, but it’s your deliberate decision. There ARE farms in GW2, but they’re fun, if you’re not trying to get a legendary weapon in a month. I personally like running around with a bunch of random people who are there to FARM events in a specific map, but that happens once every two months.
Said legendary weapons ARE hard to get and yes, they can get you burnt out in no time if you don’t have a concept of a “long term goal”. Leggies are a prestige item, and, just like other prestige items (auras, specific minis, skins, etc), they’re meant to be your ultimate show-off item. People see you and know that you’ve been through.. A lot. BUT. Your hard-earned prestige item is to stay prestige. I assume you know relics in Wakfu? Then you must know what happened to them after a few years.
There’s no devaluing in GW2. Your trophies stay relevant and rare. Your prizes, your exclusive titles, skins, etc stay exclusive. You aren’t losing half of your wealth just because the devs decided to revamp ALL GEAR FOR THE THIRD TIME.
Speaking of the gear, the orange set you get at 80, is endgame gear. GW2 is 5 years old, so that orange gear is. People crafted it on the release and.. It stayed endgame. Yes, there’s also pink gear, which ~5% better than orange and is only needed if you do high lvl fractals or are min-maxing in raids. If you’re casual or just starting, you don’t even have to think about it. But once you craft your set, it stays relevant forever. People’s effort is never shoved up their asses.
There’s no constant carrot-on-a-stick gear upgrades. Level cap is 80 since release and will stay so. The game promotes safety and stability, that’s what attracted me. You take a 2 years break? No problem, you log in and go play. Nothing has lost its value, you don’t feel inferior, you don’t need to catch up to play with your friends.
Which reminded me: there’s a wonderfully done level downscale system. You’re a lvl 80 in a lvl 16 zone? Your stats are auto-adapted so the enemies you fought as a noob are still dangerous, and your reward (xp/gold/materials) is adapted to your true lvl. You go and play anywhere you want, and get fair rewards.
Crafting materials of all levels are also demanded and relevant. Oh yeah, you can run around for hours just gathering wood/ore, familiar to Wakfu players? It’s nice and relaxing until you meet another player. Well, in GW2 all gathering nodes are NOT shared. You see a tree? It’s your tree. That dude who runs up to it won’t steal it from you.
Oh also there’s no kill steal! Which is big, imo. You’re encouraged to play together, to help people kill stuff, to contribute to any event you see around, since everyone gets rewarded equally.
Legendary stability of GW2 servers. Lemme just say: there’s no weekly maintenance. There is. No. Downtime. Even on the big update days, you can download and play pretty safely. If there’s a hotfix, the game KINDLY WARNS YOU that you need to update and you have TWO FLIPPING HOURS to do so. Before you did that, you still can play, finish whatever you were up to.
Everything revolves around player’s happiness and convenience. There are constant quality-of-life updates. Your bags are full of crap? Here, salvage it into materials with two clicks, then deposit into your bank with two clicks (from anywhere in the world), then compact the rest of your shit. Yeah, with two clicks. x’D
There’s wonderful Fashion Wars. The game offers so much customization, and it’s taken so seriously, that it’s one of the endgame aspects. There’s 30000+ achievement points to earn, which are mostly fun and make you go out of your usual way. Dailies? You get 10 points and 2 gold for doing 3 easy tasks that take ~15 minutes.
There’s LORE. There’s fun little interactions all over the world. You just did an event? Stay here and listen, probably npcs will say/do something and start another event, logically following the previous one. The world lives and breathes. You can just walk around and observe. You’ll learn so much. And of course, there’s always a good cause to laugh. Dialogues/reactions are just hilarious sometimes.
Regarding the lore: there’s a so-called personal story which accompanies you up to lvl 80, then there’s “living world”, smaller events and single maps being rolled out every once in a while - so far there’s 2 seasons available, and 1 being “historical”, not playable anymore. In that season, they fucking crushed the main capital city. It changed forever. It was an epic event, which I missed, but watched people’s videos later. Then season 2, then HoT, then season 3, and now we’re waiting for PoF, second expansion. The updates have picked a nice pace and are frequent now.
There’s just so much to do. Just go, dive into the world and drown forever. :3c And meet me on the bottom. x’DD
GW2 feels different from Wakfu, but I found similarities for myself. It’s a sandbox after all, and later endgame has a lot of strategy. GW2 is never tank-and-spank. You just, literally, can’t facetank shit here. You gotta use your skills wisely, time your dodges, play with traits/passives until it all flows together. You’ve got a HUGE BUILD FREEDOM. There’s 9 classes, each having at least 3 defined roles, with more variations. You don’t just go ranger (oh archer it’s like a cra rite??) and do pew pew from max distance. Well, yes, you have a bow and can pew pew.. Or you can be a melee fighter, you can be a full blown healer/support.. As a ranger, yes.
I’ll be wrapping up now, I swear. GW2 is true f2p. Which of course does have a few restrictions (can’t trade or use map-chat), but you can get to 80, gear up and explore to your heart’s content before you decide to pay. I personally played for 5 months, every day, before I bought HoT.
Why’d you buy an expansion? More story, more maps, new class traits, gliding in HoT and mounts in PoF. The expansion and living world content has been constantly improving, visually, mechanically and lore/writing-wise.
Other than that, there’s a gemstore offering cosmetic and convenience items (gems can be bought for cash OR ingame gold). There are infamous rng boxes, but none of those are p2w. GW2 is oriented at the western consumer, which means, yeah, they know that we hate p2w and they’ll never do that to us.
*breathes out* I had to get that off my chest. I wanna talk about GW2 forever, but it’s exhausting to do one-on-one. :P Hopefully someone’s still reading this!
Now lemme remind you that now I have those partner links, if you use this to create a new account and play for free (for an hour or two months? w/e), or this to buy an expansion, I’ll get paid a bit. Not much, but it definitely helps!
And I was gonna write this wall of text regardlessly of the partnership one day, now I just have more incentive. x’DD Plus, we’re gonna have a beta weekend on 11-13 august, where you can preview the second expansion for free! It’s a perfect timing to write this post and try convincing you. You’ll just need a f2p account, and you’ll be given a lvl 80 boost and whatnot for that beta weekend. I’m not sure yet, but I assume you WILL. Just please register using my link above, so that I get paid for the two hours I spent on this post. :D

Free inspiration for an outfit in GW2!!! Do with it what you will. Use it for inspiration, copy it exactly, copy it and change the color schemes, do what you want! These are really just meant to be fun examples of cool things you can do with Guild Wars 2′s outfit system!!!! This example comes from my own Ranger, which is the first example. I like the shirt because it doesn’t overly emphasise his bowling ball breasts, which unfortunately most medium armor does. The second pic is what the same outfit would look like on a masculine bodytype. Headpiece: Swaggering Hat (Dyes: Taupe, Shadow Abyss) (Gem Store Purchase) Shoulders: Houndskin Mantle  (Dyes: Taupe, Camel, Midnight Fire) Shirt: Noble Coat  (Dyes: Midnight Fire, Cocoa) Hands: Foefire Wraps (Dyes: Midnight Fire, Celestial, Abyss) (Gem Store Purchase) Pants: Seeker Pants  (Dyes: Abyss, Shadow Abyss) Boots: Prowler Boots   (Dyes: Shadow Abyss) The Weapon is Legendary Longbow Kudzu HE/HIM/HIS PRONOUNS FOR THIS CHARACTER.

GW2 Fashion Week - Day 4
Delsa, necromancer. Has to be one of the most visually remarkable characters I’ve ever made, although she sports an outfit! I know most people’s attitude towards outfits, so maybe there will be a day when I sit down and find a “real” skin combo. For now I’m content with this look. It’s still catchy as hell. C:
Ancestral outfit
Weapons: wrapped scepter, zenith kris, primordus staff
Dyes: electro blue, midnight ice, mulberry (cheap alternative to magenta *sobs*)

Guild Wars 2 Gems & Guide 2018 – [Review Updated April 2018]
Possibility A has been proven time and time once more to simply not be possible at the present time. Mainly each game besides FFXIV that has come out as a monthly fee game in the past, what, 5, six years has gone buy to play. There’s a number of elements, however the biggest is that cash is tight so $15 a month is just not feasible for people.
Really, that might be what makes me interested by this within the first place. If the gem store invites addiction-inclined gamers to regularly spend more money, then given how unobtrusive it is in comparison with other games’ money outlets its addictive potential is insidious.

Bought three cards as gifts for guildies. I unwrapped one simply to make sure it was as expected, and I am glad I did as a result of the cardboard inside the case had no serial quantity on it.

I’m sending all three back with the opposite two unopened and I anticipate a full refund.
