I love it when the same character honorifics are basically used as a barometer for an evolving relationship over the course of a story.
"...Princess" (Derogatory)
"Princess." (You have disproven several of my previous assumptions but I'm still guarded and critical.)
"Princess," (Mildly impressed but still snarky)
"Princess," (I am coming to terms with how much your office has demanded of you and am finally considering you an equal)
"Princess," (I genuinely respect you, your office, and how much you have grown beyond it since we have met.)
"Princess." (Uh oh I've started catching feelings and am now using your title to remind both you and myself of the distance between us.)
"PRINCESS!" (You are in danger and I am now utterly devoted AND DOWN SO BAD.)

I love when you find an author who just has a good flavor to their writing. It could be the way they handle characters, the way they use certain tropes or themes, even the specific lilt of their words. Its familiar and comforting and carries across different stories, like coming back to a place of comfort and recognizing the furniture.

so the isp we have at work blocks tumblr, and i mention this to explain the next sentence, which is LMAO the ffxiv reddit amuses me
so like. over the past few months theres been a lot of complaint about queue times. okay, wait, first - in the months prior theres been a lot of people discussing their opinions about the health of the game. these discussious tend to get polarized and rude. the dominant opinion to my outsider view is that the reddit thinks people who think the game is dying are unreasonable whiny babies, or perhaps even fake fans
this is the point where i mention this is my view on the situation itself so i dont get posted to the whiny weak baby idiot corner for mentioning the word Dead.
anyway. on to the now past and the now present. lots of people have been commenting about how difficult it is to queue into certain content. this is where it gets funny. instead of the redditors turning on our shared foe, they have decided it is each individual players fault for, in a rough kind of order: queuing for that particular piece of content -> in that particular part of the patch -> on that particular world -> on that particular class -> in that particular way -> at that particular time -> on that particular day of the week
which is annoying on its own, but like, these two phenomenon happening back to back is so entertaining. you mean to tell me that your position, is that you pay a hundred and fifty dollars a year plus the actual expansion prices for a game that you can play for four east coast evening hours on a weekend only on certain jobs on Aether, and that's your position and yet you dont see that the whiny baby losers might actually have the field on this one??? like damn! maybe youre right and the game isnt dying but like. you live like this???
another funny part of this whole thing to me has been when people post things like they WERE in fact the correct class, or this WAS in fact a very common mandatory fight, or they DID use PF or they WEREN'T on dynamis, actually, but thats aside the point
anyway anyway. shoutout to the poor person who tried to queue crystal tower at 9 am on a wednesday on dynamis. it was never going to work AND ALSO thats messed up.

Unhealed Wounds Your Character Pretends Are Just “Personality Traits”
These are the things your character claims are just “how they are” but really, they’re bleeding all over everyone and calling it a vibe.
╰ They say they're "independent." Translation: They don’t trust anyone to stay. They learned early that needing people = disappointment. So now they call it “being self-sufficient” like it’s some shiny badge of honor. (Mostly to cover up how lonely they are.)
╰ They say they're "laid-back." Translation: They stopped believing their wants mattered. They'll eat anywhere. Do anything. Agree with everyone. Not because they're chill, but because the fight got beaten out of them a long time ago.
╰ They say they're "a perfectionist." Translation: They believe mistakes make them unlovable. Every typo. Every bad hair day. Every misstep feels like proof that they’re worthless. So they polish and polish and polish... until there’s nothing real left.
╰ They say they're "private." Translation: They’re terrified of being judged—or worse, pitied. Walls on walls on walls. They joke about being “mysterious” while desperately hoping no one gets close enough to see the mess behind the curtain.
╰ They say they're "ambitious." Translation: They think achieving enough will finally make the emptiness go away. If they can just get the promotion, the award, the validation—then maybe they’ll finally outrun the feeling that they’re fundamentally broken. (It never works.)
╰ They say they're "good at moving on." Translation: They’re world-class at repression. They’ll cut people out. Bury heartbreak. Pretend it never happened. And then wonder why they wake up at 3 a.m. feeling like they're suffocating.
╰ They say they're "logical." Translation: They’re terrified of their own feelings. Emotions? Messy. Dangerous. Uncontrollable. So they intellectualize everything to avoid feeling anything real. They call it rationality. (It's fear.)
╰ They say they're "loyal to a fault." Translation: They mistake abandonment for loyalty. They stay too long. Forgive too much. Invest in people who treat them like an afterthought, because they think walking away makes them "just as bad."
╰ They say they're "resilient." Translation: They don't know how to ask for help without feeling like a burden. They wear every bruise like a trophy. They survive things they should never have had to survive. And they call it strength. (But really? It's exhaustion wearing a cape.)
