absolutely hate when i can't think of where a quote or saying comes from but i know it absolutely comes from some piece of media i've consumed in the past and i agonize over trying to trace it back to the source and then give it up, and then i'm watching a piece of media and bam i found the root of the phrase and it's like. thor ragnarok. or something.

the idea that Killer is really flirtatious but also super easily flustered

like when in stage 2 he’ll say the most inappropriate, sexual, disgusting thing but then if he’s in stage 1 and Color holds his hand this man is blushing and giggling and he can’t even respond. and like in stage 2 he’s trying to get a reaction bc he can’t feel emotions so he’s like kinda living vicariously through the others. and in stage 1 every little experience feels new and overwhelming

idk this made more sense in my head

🎧💕🎀 for clio!!

Certainly, friend!! Thank you very much for these!~

(question source: “Fluffy selfship asks!” by aceselfshippers)

🎧: What’s a song that reminds you of your F/O? - I have a couple of these for Clio! For example, a fair few SOLARIA originals make me think of her, because “SOLARIA with extra gender parameter and a Southern English accent” is in fact my voiceclaim for Clio (and yes it makes for a fun bit of “selfshipping twice at the same time”, given that SOLARIA is also one of my F/Os haha). Examples include Dawn by Circus, especially for the section that starts with “Caught in an avalanche”, and also At Your Word by NEOKIN, though ironically the lyrics of that one make it seem more like something Aria might be singing instead. So I suppose it reminds me of the whole selfship!

💕: Who confessed first? - This depends on which of my selfships with Clio you’re on about! In KHUX’s context (so, arilio), it’s Aria, in quite a hesitant sort of way; she doesn’t 100% understand that what she(?) feels for Clio is love and isn’t sure what to do with the feeling, so it’s actually by trying to express this to Clio that the answers are gleaned, and a confession/becoming girlfriends sort of falls out of the conversation. Clio had romantic feelings for Aria anyway, but was trying not to act on them because she didn’t want to put her(?) under any pressure to reciprocate - so, overall the confession is very (uncharacteristically!) nervous on Aria’s end and then becomes very relieving on both girls’ ends.

Conversely, for the FFXIV version of Clio, she is the one who confesses first to Lorenza (a bit spontaneously), and her doing so is what forces Lorenza to admit her(?) own rising feelings to herself. This happens.. either right at the end of the post-ARR story, or early into Heavensward; considering certain plot points in that area of the game, I can certainly envision some options for how things might get shoved into the spotlight more spontaneously.

🎀: What was your first date like? - Again, this changes a bit depending on the specific verse! (And is also the hardest one of these questions for me to answer, considering I’ve never been on a date IRL or anything.) I think, for KHUX, it would have been something along the lines of the two of us hanging out together in Daybreak Town one evening after coming back from a mission, which is something Aria and Clio would do quite often even before the confession, but usually Livian (Aria’s Nobody counterpart, and both girls’ best friend) would also come with them since the three often did missions together as a trio. So in an instance where they didn’t come along for whatever reason, and the two were doing fairly normal hangout things, I think Clio would pipe up and say “hehe do you think this counts as our first date” and Aria’s basically just like “maybe?? how do dates work???” because she’s desperate to get it right and figure out how to not mess up what she has gained (which is a running theme with her). She gets a lot more confident about it once she has a better sense of what Clio is happy with (which is, helpfully, pretty much everything - since Clio is quite an easygoing sort of girl in that regard, and a lot of things make her happy, which gives Aria the ability to then figure out what makes her(?) happy. And it all works out!)

In FFXIV, on the other hand, I think it might actually be Lorenza who takes the lead in setting up that first date, because I think it would take place somewhere in the Pillars of Ishgard, near the start of Heavensward. Even though things are somewhat tense at that point in time because of the aftermath of the bloody banquet, the matter remains that Clio and the others are guests of House Fortemps and do therefore have the right to be in Ishgard - so, why don’t they behave as any other wards of the High Houses would, and go explore the city and court each other and so on and so forth? (Clio may not particularly care for any of the typical stuffy noble nonsense that might feature in Ishgard, and Lorenza doesn’t too much either, but.. there is a certain element of something almost nostalgic about being in such an environment, given that she was once a noble’s daughter before the Flood of Darkness destroyed the Thirteenth. We don’t play along completely for the sake of it, though; it’s about blending in but also having a good time in our own rights.)

I hope that this answers your questions well, friend!! Thank you so much again for sending them in!~

Shout out to the USA for pissing Canadians off so bad it flipped an entire election that was supposed to be a landslide for the center-right, forever in your debt o7

i dont consider myself a 'fashion guru' by any means but one thing i will say is guys you dont need to know the specific brand an item you like is - you need to know what the item is called. very rarely does a brand matter, but knowing that pair of pants is called 'cargo' vs 'boot cut' or the names of dress styles is going to help you find clothes you like WAAAYYYY faster than brand shopping

When I was early on in my transition I got in a Lyft, and the driver was this big country guy. I was a little nervous so I just sat quietly in the back.

After a moment he changed the music on his phone to what sounded like a Hatsune Miku song. Curiosity got the better of me, so I finally spoke up and said “is this Hatsune Miku?”

And he said “Yep. You looked uncomfortable, and I know Transgender women like Hatsune Miku, so I thought it might help.”

I think about that interaction a lot.
