hi I’m back on my ffxiv bullshit and solely logging in here to say that no matter how far into her story - no matter her hero status - if anqoora sees someone getting ripped off at the market, or god forbid someone tries it with her, she will become that merchant’s worst nightmare. she never looses her roots as tradesperson. if she isn’t busy with hero business, she helps tataru with the ledgers.

you know how fem characters sit sideways on some mounts, like the wedding chocobo? anqoora sits like that on most of her mounts unless she’s genuinely riding into / during battle.

𝐂𝐈𝐍𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐎𝐍. oh child of spice you are bound to the core of the earth. can you feel the heartbeat of nature pulsing through your veins. you are the mouthful of autumn that scorched through your throat, you are the pepper of life that wakes up the weary. the foolish and shaking will attempt to dilute you with sickening sugar, do not let them. your spark is what keeps us alive my dear. keep burning, little star. you see the beauty and the light, but oh you have been fed poison and refuse to drop it onto other's tongues. be wild. I know what your heart is chanting. run. run. run. run dear, find your story. do not trade your spirit for safety. you are a child of the earth, forever seeking, forever dancing.

on one hand I’m lamenting that I can’t do the ‘ hair permanently white after shadowbringers ‘ with anqoora, but at the same time it does speak for itself that one of her greatest motifs have always been shades of white.

constantly thinking about anqoora’s lack of vocalization while on elpis and the great significance of her suddenly - and only - speaking to tell the tale of why and how she has arrived there.

i promise i will never leave you. ( @ alisae ! )
Alisaie’s stare snaps to her, wide and blurred.
Her eyelids are puffed, rimmed red from tears — tears which still track down her face, leaving the cheeks and her hands and the bedsheets that she's been weeping beside messy and damp.
She lurches forward. Grabs Anqoora by the upper arms, tight. So tight. As if the woman will fall to pieces if she dares lets go. Alisaie shakes her, and lets her head hang when the tears don’t stop but instead flow freely and, says with a voice rough with desperation. “Don’t you dare. If you do-- if you do --”
A beat.
Alisaie is trembling. She struggles for words. There was no time to cry in the Burn. No time to think about what this means. More times than she’d ever wanted, she’d had to consider the what-ifs regarding his noble path and those often-bitter ends --
But this is the closest they’ve tasted it.
And yet they aren’t safe.
Her resolve tightens. Her grip on Anqoora tightens. She surges forward, again, and when she whips her head back up to stare Anqoora down, her face is bright with an anger at her friend, at her hero, at that which hasn’t happened, which won’t happen -- because -- because.
Lowly, and with all of the feeling in the world: “I will -- never -- never -- forgive you.”
She gives Anqoora another shake. Then from the corner of her eye -- she sees-- and with a choked sob, she lets go. Turns, again, and collapses once more beside her brother’s nearly still form.

“ careful… you’ve never had to fight me before. ” ( @ fandaniel ! )
OH , SWEET THREAT ! agony of desire so thorough in his body , this broken bloodied thing that craves and carves . lips licked by bloodied tongue , eyes wild and watching . this is what he wants , what he needs ! this malevolence !
“ and why would i be careful ? do your
worst : i promise to enjoy it ! “
laughter ! jovial he , despite it all . best or worst case are the same : someone will die , or they will not ! what more can he ask for , all fang and anger . leans so close , bent at the waist , brown settled on blue skin . how could his chest bubble with anything but joy , excitement ! this rush ! oh , her weapon makes him want to sing .
inky black swallows all . limb and length , falling into the void of nothing . only for him to resurface , closer , closer . to dodge stone , her determination adorable . to appear before her , all smiles and scrunched eyes . to wrap his hand around her throat and pull , oh , aglow with magic stolen from earth and aether . that fandaniel might bring her face close , might smile too wickedly . surely , she will strike him here ! he prays so , begs so . begs for a swing or a burn of magic or malice .
“ come on , little dragon . you don’t want
to let them all down , do you ? end me !
end the final days ! win back your fate ! “
release she to step back , two - three! arms extended as if to bow , but to spin ! to twirl upon toes , to let robe of red melt into light armor . and blade forms in his hand , red and black and sharp and deadly . he wants this . needs this . wants to know how far she’ll go .
( how far will she bend before she breaks ? something ancient , something mortal . just like him . they’re the same , after all , these shells holding souls too large for their own bodies . cages beasts in gilded bars , clawing free . )
stops , bows at the waist . extends his unarmed hand . eye shines with something carnivorous , something hungry . will they swallow one another whole , or continue this chase unto space unknown ?
“ shall we dance ? “

honestly, for all her serenity and benevolence, anqoora is inherently a very imposing individual when she wants to be. she absolutely is the person to recount what enemies she has felled to intimidate a la “ i have slain gods in their own kingdom. do you think yourself above them? “. she claims - and believes - it is only to avoid confrontations. she uses intimidation as another form of diplomacy. but truthfully it is also a point of pride. anqoora has been through hell, fought satan, and came back the victor. and she will not pretend otherwise.

words have never come easy to her, even after teaching own tongue to speak them. what, then, is a warrior of beloved light to say in face of darkness incarnate, the antithesis of her very being ? what could she possibly want to hear from a creature of evil ? her blood boils at the mere mention of conversing in lieu of a confrontation that would pit light against darkness. do as she always has : vanquish the wicked. ( no time, no time — nonsense ! ) how often has he stood within reach of blade and spell alike ? let her suffocate the hesitation festering ‘neath a heart begging to give esteemed paragon the same benefit of the doubt she does everyone else.
holy keeper of peace / weapon forged in blessed blood : a champion divine ! what need have you of compromise ? o’ child of mother moon, betrayal is as much a companion as death. would you have this one betray you as well ? take not a hand offered by the darkness, it will only end in tragedy.
though unrest is writ clear ‘pon subtle furrow of her brows and the continuous sway of sharp — edged tail, deeper still it runs in the most subtle ways, carved into marrow of a straightened spine and the fingers tightened ‘round staff. mistake not her serenity for peace. long has it ceased to reside in a heart made to bleed time and again, settling instead amidst high — strung nerves, ready to carve a righteous path through whomsoever would make themselves an obstacle. the firstblessed wears serenity as a liar would their mask : to hide the ugly truth.
a gentle sigh, then, easing neither her shoulders nor mind, yet still softening the edges of sharp glint ‘neath moonlit eyes. ❛ storyteller, ❜ confident but airy, as though spoken to herself, yet clearly addressing enigmatic paragon. lightest tilt of qestir’s head and knuckles of a hand brush scaled chin. a daunting task, to speak. but the thought of beloved silence being read by such a creature ? revolting. ❛ ‘tis a fanciful tale, the yarn you spin, ❜ and though lacking in disbelief, it gracefully dances ‘pon edge betwixt condescension and curiosity — her eyes tell : she knows. and this she allows an adversery to read ‘pon deceptively calm facade, a challenge unspoken, not of blade and spell, but of truth and belief. ❛ apocryphal. ❜
