OnS Theories (9S). Third Theory - The way the cursed gears actually work

Hello! As always, it’s time to update another theory. Before starting with the theory, this one will be focused in the past chapters along the latest, therefore, let’s begin!!

As many could see, Guren and Yu’s cursed gear got a power up to call it like that or more of a state of synchrony but, have you wondered if this was something spontaneous or actually this was the real purpose of the cursed gears?

To begin with, we can state that this action was done by the First Progenitor with the main difference that Shikama forced Shinoa to open her heart; which reflects on how Shikama was able to use her body at will along his powers but without having Shinoa’s consciousness kicking.

On the other hand, Guren and Mahiru restrained Noya’s power, each one kept a half of Noya’s power so they could restrain Noya and thus, having Guren being able to transform into a demon without losing his mind and being able to manifest his two demons in the outside world. Meanwhile, in Yuichiro’s case, he built a bond with Ashera, their bond was based in trust, friendship and companionship; thus, this allowed Ashera to control Yu’s body and having a part of Yu’s consciousness within him so he could control and execute correctly his actions.

Now, another question pops for this, and this is mainly for readers, don’t you think these events are quite strange in their own way?

Well, personally I wasn’t expecting this to happen, but at the end, it ended up happening since chapter 76 to the current point.

For this, the First Progenitor has the upper hand, but why? To begin with many can assume that the demons within the cursed gears have the main goal to possess their owners and devour their hearts so they can manifest completely and gain a physical body, which is something we could see in old chapters; such as chapter 7, on which Yoichi’s demon took control over his body.

Sika Madu made vampires to actually have that mentality set in stone that once they become demons, they’d devour the heart of a human but, it’s quite interesting how the development between Yu and Asuramaru went; very much aside from their past friendship, the current friendship they have is what allowed them to have a mastery in skills and possession

In fact, the real purpose of the vampires within their cursed gears is not actually to devour the heart of a human, instead, it is likely to grow a bond between user and demon; which actually would explain why Sika Madu wanted the development of the cursed gears very aside from allowing humans to survive the apocalypsis.

As another point for this, if Shikama would have wanted or focused in another plan, he’d pretty much have killed the squad members along the JIDA soldiers but that just displays he has unfinished business with someone that will await at the very end.

Therefore, the main purpose of the cursed gears, was to actually create stronger beings, more advanced than humans and vampires, a fusion between both even if that sounds crazy for the time being. This could only lead to the eventual final arc of the story.

But, at the same time, it is also focused on the bond and a deep level of trust and friendship in order for the cursed gear to bring out the best potential of the user or bearer.

What do you think? Do you think this is possible? Let me know!!

“I fucked up again, sorry”

Requested by @boyslikeluke

Making luke mad was kind of the equivalent of kicking a puppy. Not that I kicked puppies on a regular basis, but I think it is very self-explanatory.

Luke is not the kind of guy you want to have a fight with, especially if you are close to him in any way, he was not a guy to mess up with, he could be the sweetest guy on earth but if you did anything that could hurt him or any of his loved ones, you would wish it never happened, or worst, you would wish you never knew him at all, that’s how heavy this was. That’s why after a very bad night and the biggest fight in the history of our relationship, this was really starting to feel like the end and I was too fucking scared to even think about it.

It was not like he did something to me, it was not his mistake at all. It was me, it was all me. I did this.

Going in detail right now would be a lot, but let’s just say, mental breakdowns are a bitch and you should not be pretending to be fine when nothing is really fine and most definitely, you should not be questioning anyone's feeling while having a mental breakdown, because they most likely will turn up shit on you and that’s where all the trouble starts, Me, having a mentally unstable moment, not handling it well and ending up in a fight with my boyfriend, which is never good.

Flying out to Australia was a true pain after this fight. All of my words and every single moment of that call was being played in my head over and over, I felt like it could go on forever until I finally exploded. I tried to forget that while being on my flight though, this was not going to hold me back, I made one promise to Luke before he left, I would be at that show no matter what and I was going to be there just like I promised. He had my word.

These past few days have been hell on earth, I stayed at his family house instead of going to his apartment, just like I usually did when I had to go to Australia alone. I told them about everything, but they seemed too sure that everything was going to be alright, which I somehow doubted, but I never said that to them, I wouldn’t dare to worry them more about us than they were already. But while they seemed to be totally fine with my presence, I still couldn’t stop thinking about that day, I couldn’t stop seeing his face everywhere and I just couldn’t stop looking at my phone, just sitting there and waiting for a call that I was never going to get.

He hasn’t called me in almost a week. I definitely fucked up

Days passed and the moment was finally here, the day I would face him and everything would be determined, I would either stay with him or go home and pick up everything from his house. It was one way or the other, no middle point.

I stand on his childhood bedroom looking at my reflection in the mirror, doubting if what I had was even the right clothes for such an event, it was his show, I had to look more decent and more... I don’t know… outstanding. Instead, I was just wearing a white blouse he gave to me a while ago and jeans, with little to no makeup, which was usually my look anyways. I feel underdressed, I feel pathetic. What would a feminine girl do?.

I grab the red lipstick on my bag and just put it on, might be a fail try to look better, but it was something and I was really making my best to not look too careless about my looks tonight, I wanted him to feel something when he saw me, not just anger or whatever he was feeling about me tonight, something good, something that will make me feel better about myself.

“Honey, we’re going backstage before the show, so we better take off now” I hear Luke’s mother say from out the door, opening it carefully, making sure she didn’t catch me in a bad moment or something.

She is already dressed and ready to go, I am too, but I am not prepared for seeing him right now. My hands still shake a little when I think about what’s going to happen and all the possible outcomes for this moment. I was scared and I wanted everything to be alright, but the only way that would happen if it I just faced the situation and be strong about it, I had to do it.

“All of you?” I ask Lis, completely opening the door and facing her, I couldn’t hide my scared look from her and that’s why she looked at me back in pity, I hated this so much “Oh, well, I guess it's alright” I say after a few seconds, recognizing there was nothing I could do about it anyways.

“Hey” She says giving a step forward, putting her hands on my shoulders “are you two still not talking?” I can sense true concern in her voice and I almost hated that she was even when it was comforting to have someone who supported, but I just had a fight with her son, she wasn’t even mad about it. she has too much hope on this.

“I mean, he talks to me, sometimes” I shrug, sitting on the bed and letting her do the same. I remember all of those texts, just keeping me updated on where he was or how he was doing, but after that he never really asked how I was, or at least starts a conversation, it was almost like he felt responsible for making sure I was informed about his status, but the reality is that all I wanted was to hear his voice talking to me, not just a text. I needed to hear his voice.

“he hasn't called me in a while” I mumble in a sad smile, trying to not look like the world was ending or something, but my world was on the apocalypsis right now.

“A week is a long time” She says, squeezing my shoulder a bit in support “It'll be alright” she assures me “he loves you, this is just a slip”

I give her a smile, I appreciate how supportive she’s being, I really do “More like my slip” I chuckle like it was funny at all.

She nods, recognizing what I just said, but still showing me her supporting self by putting her arm around shoulder in a side hug “Everyone makes mistakes” she says, making sure I looked at her when she spoke “you'll be fine” she assures me, leaning in to kiss my cheek and getting up from her spot. “Pick up whatever you’re bringing, we’ll get going in a few”

“Okay” I nod, looking up at her as she walked towards the door “Thanks Lis” I mumble giving her soft smile “I’m sorry for making Luke feel so bad”

She smiles back and waves her hand like if she’s trying to swing that comment away “No need to apologize, sweetie, you’re a beautiful and nice girl” She says, some of the weight somehow feels like it flew off my shoulders “I know you wouldn’t hurt him on purpose”

“Thanks” I say looking down, trying to hide my blushed cheeks between my hair.

“5 minutes” she instructs me before she’s out that door.

I guess that’s about it. Five minutes away from confronting the only guy who I’m so in love with that kind of terrifies me. Gosh, I hope I don’t do something stupid.

Well, good luck to me.

So after what seemed to be the shortest car ride I have ever been on in my entire life, we were here, facing the awfully empty back of the venue they were performing in, waiting for Luke’s brother to find the guy of the security team that would let us in to find the guys.

Those were an awful five to ten minutes, I don’t even know how long it took us to actually get in but in no time we were already backstage and everyone was living a very happy reunion moment, then there was me, who stood frozen at the door of the room looking at the scene quitely from my place.

It’s not like felt unhappy to be there, not at all, I was too happy, so happy I could barely move. He looked so good I could just look at him forever, he looked older, more mature, somehow taller, Last time I saw him he looked kind of different,  but not now, he looked better than even.

Some of the guys acknowledge my presence and came to me for a quick hug, in which I still felt a little stiff and shocked to move at all, I hoped they don’t think I didn’t want to be there, things just felt a little heavy right now.

Everyone looked so happy, like nothing was happening, but not on my side. Luke hasn’t looked or said anything to me and I not pushing anything to change that, I can’t bring myself to him after our last conversation, I feel like if I do it I’d be going into a danger zone that could bring me to an end and I didn’t want to risk that.

He smiled at everyone, being so happy that his family was there, they laughed at jokes, they were catching up, making questions. They’re so happy. the moment seems to last forever, he enjoys himself with his loved ones and he seems totally fine until the moment his eyes land on me and his smiles fades just a little. My hands shake and I look away, he’s uncomfortable, I knew I had to stay outside.

Time passes and at some point, they are already set to get out before the guys have to get ready for the big night. I’ve seen how he keeps glancing at me from the corner of his eyes, I haven’t moved at all and my heart beats so fast that I can hear the pounding on my ears, I can’t just come over to him and say something. I just can’t.

When they are all heading out, I still can’t move. Lis looks at me and waits for me to go, but when we look at each other she smiles at me the last time and walks away, she thinks I want to talk to Luke and I do, but I’m not ready. I can’t say a word because before I can even talk she is already walking out the door and leaving me.

I turn my head to the side and it’s like all of my worst current nightmares are here because Luke is standing right in front of me, looking amazing but serious, he’s looking down at me and saying nothing. My brain is not working.

“Good luck” It’s all I can get to come out of my mouth. Not even a hello or any kind of greeting, nothing useful is going through my head right now.

“Thanks” he says, nodding, trying to get a decent smile out of him “you'll be watching right?” he asks, he sounds nervous for some reason, but honestly, not as nervous as I was.

“Always” I nod, smiling back. I want to say something else but my bottom lip is shaking already and I want to run away from this place, I am not ready, I feel sick, I need, I need- “I gotta go” I say, stopping any word that tried to get out of my mouth and trying to walk away but not make it look like I wanted to escape even when I totally was.

“See you later?” he asks before I can move at all. His eyebrows are now raised and looking for my answer.

“Yeah” I nod and smile again.

He nods back and takes a step forward to me, kisses my forehead and leaves. I am for sure going to pass out right in this second if I don’t walk out right now and that’s what I do, I leave, feeling my heart pounding so heavily that it could explode.

However, If that little moment even meant something, it made me feel a little bit alive again. Him and I definitely need to have a talk.

Time somehow seemed to pass in the blink of an eye. One moment I was watching their gig, taking pictures with my phone and singing their lyrics along with the audience, then I was in front of Luke, facing what seemed to be the worst of my fears right now.

He was sweating and so was I, none of us talking but looking at each other intensely, not caring about what anyone thought from watching us just say nothing in the middle of the hallway. We needed a moment.

“Hi” he says first, taking a step towards me so I could hear him better.

“Hi” I repeat almost automatically, I was nervous, I couldn’t really think about anything else to say that was somehow smart or useful, something that would sound like me but less scared, if that made any sense.

“You look great” It’s what I say, looking at him up and down, almost as if I was checking him out, I wasn’t but he for sure looked great. His hair all messy and his general look after a show was always something I would find attractive, especially on him, always on him.

“You too, nice blouse” He says giving me a sweet smile, looking at me the same way I did before.

“You gave it to me on christmas” I mention, smoothing down the fabric with the palms of my hands.

“I know, I remember” He nods, taking another step forward “I love how it looks on you”

“Thanks” I blush and look down, his presence was a little too intimidating for me at the moment, I could barely hear him over my heart beats, drumming on my ears so hard that it’s sound started to make me nervous, this was too much. I want to be over it now.

He sighs deeply the moment I look away from his face, His hands find a way across his hair, pulling it back in slight frustration and finding the right way to start such a conversation. I can’t blame him for not knowing what to say, I didn’t know either, I wanted all of this to be over so we could go home, but we both know that things don’t work that way and we had to talk about this one way or another, but it has to be now.

“Look-” We both say at the same time, stopping in track at the same time and waiting for one of us to speak up first, but none of us did.

“You first” he says. I shook my head in negation, too nervous to be the first one to speak up but before I could even say anything he interrupts me again. “Please” he says in a mumble, letting me be the first one to say something.

I nod, trying to find the right words to start “I-” my voice breaks before I can even start and my hands shake, this was more difficult than I anticipated “I fucked up again, sorry” It’s what I say, feeling like it was barely going to fix anything “I mean- I am really sorry, about what I said, I don’t mean it, I don’t think your job is useless, I don’t think you are shitty person, I just-” I hesitate bit I keep talking “I was angry and I took it out on you” I explain and my voice breaks once again, I try to find more words but his touch cuts me out.

His hands press against my arm, rubbing them softly and silently telling me to calm down even when I was completely freaking out.  

“It’s alright” he says in a soft voice.

“No, it’s not alright” I shake my head, feeling the tears come in quickly to my eyes and fall on my cheeks “Luke, I miss you”

“I miss you too” he says in a small voice.

He doesn’t let me keep talking, he grabs my hand and makes me walk down the hallway until we reach an empty room, a maintenance room apparently. He locks the door behind us so no one can interrupt us at this moment, we both needed to hear each other clearly.

I am the one who starts talking.

“I guess I wanted to let you know that I'm sorry these last days have been so tense, I should have called you but I didn't, I just bottled up and you're right when You said I just hide all the time instead of facing shit, I should have talked to you  and now I'm even more sorry that I didn't came to see you earlier when you landed-”

“(Y/n), breathe” He interrupts me, only to make me realise that all of this time I was rambling I almost forgot how to breathe properly, so I take a short break and give myself a minute to breathe, even though I just totally break down into crying, it felt too difficult to breathe in this particular situation. “there you go” he mumbles when I seem a little calmer and somehow relaxed. I felt better, but this was not over.

“I'm sorry, I really am” I mumble, looking at him in the eye.

“I know you are” He says back, taking my hands in his and caressing softly.

I lean back to catch my breath, sitting on a little chair in the corner of the room, not longer having anything else more to say more than what I just did, I was running out of ideas and I hoped that he didn’t take it the wrong way. “What did you need to tell me?” I ask, suddenly remembering he wanted to say something too.

“I just- uh- I wanted to know where we stand” he asks, clearly a little uncomfortable with all this “that last argument, it was no child's play, we both said some nasty things and trust me, I am extremely sorry” he says speaking truthfully about this “I guess all I want to know is, if we’re ok”

I nod, I know where he’s going, It’s so scary “I want us to be” I say, shrugging “but you're right, that last argument was kind of ugly”

he nods and sighs “Listen, I totally understand if you want to end it” he says and I froze  “i was an asshole”

“No, it was my fault” I excuse.  

“But I still said so much shit” he interrupts me, taking part of the blame with him “I don't want you to feel pressure into keep this going if you don't feel comfortable, it's okay, we've been together for a long time, if you feel like this is enough, I won't hold you back” he says.

the room falls into silence.

It’s true, the least thing I want is to break up with him, but for a brief minute I consider it, maybe it was the best option for the both of us, after dating for so long, maybe it was for the best if we just part. But then, who would be the one to call me on my lonely nights or stay with me on those rainy days when it’s cold outside, who would go with me on walks with our dogs, who would come up and show me new ideas for music, but most importantly, who would ever love me like he does, no one, no one would. I can’t break up with him. Not now, not a stupid fight.

“No” I finally say after a while  “I don't want this to end”

He nods “Good” Luke says softly, smiling a little “Me neither”

“But I do want you to know that I am really sorry, Luke, for everything, it won’t happen again” I say, squeezing his hands that now are holding mine so carefully, as if I'm going to break “I am also so stressed lately and I don’t want you to think it is because of you, it is not”

“I understand” he nods. In a soft move, his forehead is now pressed against mine while he caresses my hands, I don’t want him to let go, ever. “We’ll go through this together, alright?”

“Yeah?” I sniff a little, this was overwhelming.

“Yeah” he chuckles, kissing the back of my hand “I love you so much” he says, looking into my eyes “I haven't say that in a while” he chuckles

“I love you more” I mumble, a real smile now showing on my face “I really do”

he leans in and steals a kiss from my lips. Somehow it feels unfamiliar for a second, it’s been months since I last saw him and kissing right now after what happened felt a little weird, but good, always good.

He holds my face with both hands and deeps up the kiss, making me know how much he needed this and how much he missed me, I did too, this felt beyond fantastic, to finally have him here and be able to feel him with me. I missed this guy so much.

We end the kiss and all we can do is look at each other. I know, this felt unreal. I can’t help myself but to give him a big hug, I felt so good after that kiss, I feel better than ever. We’re good, we’re fine. After all Lis was right, this was just a slip.

There’s a loud knock on the door that makes us both jump in surprise.

“Whatever you two are doing, hurry up, we’re going out” says Luke’s brother from the other side of the door.

Luke closes his eyes and sighs, I know, I don’t want this to end right now, We just need a little longer, just a few more minutes.

We kiss one more time, just to make this last a couple more seconds but his brother knocks again, letting us know that they want to go now.

“We should go” he says with a little smile.

“Agreed” I say with a smile, pressing our lips together once more.

He takes my hand and we leave the room, ready for a night with his family, a night that we would never forget, because we are now just fine and this is a good moment, we’re all together and that’s all that matters.

I love this boy and nothing would ever make me change my mind. No matter how many slips we have. I am his and he is mine, That’s all that matters.

Some Thoughts/Analysis on “Episode Medley” “Episode Medley” is the music played during the new Comrades quest featuring the older bros that became available upon the March 5 update. It is arranged by Tadayoshi Makino (who worked on the music in the Assassin’s Festival DLC and arranged “Apocalypsis Magnatus” in Episode Ignis) and combines the main themes from all the major DLCs released so far.

0:00 - Intro/Noctis’ theme (originally “NOCTIS” composed by Yoko Shimomura) Episode Medley opens with a melody line from the second verse of NOCTIS – but instead of piano, it is played by a bright solo violin. It serves to introduce the general tempo, structure, and style of the medley before diving into individual themes.

0:09 - Transition Written in 5/4, the repeating motif in the strings effectively builds some momentum that pushes the music forward on top of serving as a connector between different parts of the medley.

0:17 - Noctis’ theme Unlike the original track NOCTIS, which is orchestrated with only piano and strings accompaniment to create a calm and simple image, this arrangement has the trumpet, violin, electric guitar, and flute playing the melody. Makino also added a key change during the trumpet solo (it’s played in B major instead of the original A-flat major), perhaps with the intention to create more variation within the music. With a faster tempo and stronger beat, the new orchestration generates more excitement, which is fitting for a battle theme.

0:56 - Transition Back to 5/4 time, the repeating pattern returns in the bass line. The soprano line plays a short sequence of notes taken from the melody of Gladio’s theme, anticipating the second part of the medley.

1:04 - Gladiolus’ theme (originally “Shield of the King” composed by Keiichi Okabe) Instead of keeping the prominent choral melody in Shield of the King, Makino chose to put more emphasis on the instrumental section in this arrangement. The choir is still present throughout the piece, but brass instruments (French horn and trumpet) get the melody in the first verse. Although the choir takes over the melody during the climax (1:41), the secondary parts still stand out quite a lot. These changes might have been made to keep Gladio’s theme more consistent with the overall style of the medley.

2:06 - Transition This is the shortest transition in the medley, and it stays in 4/4 time rather than going back to 5/4. Semitones are used to prepare for the key change.

2:12 - Prompto’s theme (originally “Home Sweet Home” composed by Naoshi Mizuta) In this arrangement, cello is replaced with acoustic guitar to play the opening melody line of Home Sweet Home. This takes away the mellowness in the original version but still preserves the warm yet melancholy “feel” of Prompto’s theme to a recognizable extent. While the original version utilizes lyrical solos to evoke a sense of loneliness, the medley version unites the tone quality of various instruments to produce a grander, brighter sound.

3:02 - Transition While the orchestra is still holding the last note of Prompto’s theme, a violin comes in, playing a short melodic line from Ignis’ theme transposed to the key of g# minor, the key that Prompto’s theme is in. Then, the modulation to e minor, the original key of Ignis’ theme, is accomplished through a series of syncopated notes that eventually lands on B, a common note between g# minor and e minor.

3:13 - Ignis’ theme (originally “Theme of Episode Ignis” composed by Yasunori Mitsuda) Out of the five themes featured in this medley, I feel like the arrangement of Ignis’ theme preserves the original style the most. (Or maybe it’s the other way around – the style of this medley is closest to that of Ignis’ theme? 👀) It makes sense though, since Makino himself worked on Episode Ignis’ music, plus Iggy’s theme already has a fiery, epic character on its own. There are some changes in orchestration, though, such as the addition of piano and trumpet in the melody line and some reduction in the use of choir. (I’m a bit sad that the little runs on the flute during the violin solo are taken out though… That was my favorite part ;;)

4:27 - Transition This transition is slightly lengthier than the previous ones, and it adds a bit of jazzy element to the music through a series of runs on the piano.

4:39 - Comrades main theme (originally “Lestallum/Choosing Hope” composed by Nobuo Uematsu) Damn that big electric guitar solo in the beginning is giving me some ffvii ac flashbacks adfdjsdk… Maybe Uematsu would be pleased :3 Although Choosing Hope is originally written in 3/4, the time signature is changed to 4/4 (the most common time used in rock music) during the electric guitar part until strings and flute (sounds kinda like Japanese flute actually? I can’t tell orz…) take over the melody. While the heavy use of acoustic guitar and harmonica(?) in the original version gives it a warm, gospel-like feeling, this arrangement sounds more festive and dance-like due to its fast tempo and new orchestration.

5:38 - Transition Finally back in 5/4 time, the rhythmic pattern we’ve heard in the beginning returns, looping back to Noctis’ theme.

Instructions: To celebrate a year of FFXV and the end of the first year of updates, let’s spread the FFXV love! If you see this and want to, copy/paste this list and share what your favorite things about FFXV are.

Favorite Chocobro: Gladiolus. I’m sure he’s a man with great and deep struggle but he never really shows it. He wants to be strong for his loved ones when they can’t be strong for themselfs. He may seem mean but sometimes you have to tell someone the hard truth to push them out of their despair.

Favorite Guest Party Member (including Ravus and Libertus from DLC): Ravus. I love his skills and his role in Episode Ignis.

Favorite Minor Character(s): Gentiana and Gilgamesh I guess? So many more???

Favorite Villain: Titus Drautos and of course ARDYN!

Favorite Kingsglaive Character: CROWE. But also Clarus, Sonitus, Tredd, Pelna, Luche, Petra and Sylva. I also loved Iedolas a lot in KG. AND LUNA. Oh, and Nyx and Libertus ofc XD

Favorite Astral/Divine Being: Honestly I love them all but Leviathan owns me.

Favorite Character Overall: That’s tough omg … But I have to admit that it’s probably Ardyn ‘cause his character is most well done.

Favorite Weapon: Nyx’ Kukris and the Engine Blade.

Favorite Location: Gralea, Altissia and the Steyliff ruins with its water ceiling ~ 

Favorite Quest/Questline/Hunt: The Menace Beneath Lucis

Favorite Boss: Ardyn

Favorite Monster/Monster Family/etc: Bilröst, Mictlantecihuatl and Tonberry’s XD

Favorite Song: “LUNA’S THEME”!! Also “ Prayer de Luna”, “Somnus” and “Departure”. From Kingsglaive it’s “Prologue”, “The General and the King” and “The Chancellor“.

Favorite Boss Theme: Apocalypsis Aquarius and OMNIS LACRIMA!!

Favorite Non-Episode DLC/Update/Event: Swapping characters I guess but idk XD

Favorite Episode DLC: Episode Ignis

Other Favorites of Note: The “Farewell, dear Noctis” scene is one of the most beautiful CGI scenes of any Final Fantasy’s I’ve ever played.

[saphscribes]

tagged by @ghostl0rd~ I was hopping to get tagged in this and now I’m valid???? here goes!

Favourite Chocobro: I love one man and his name is Gladiolus Amicitia. I came for the books and I stayed for the Big Emotionally Complex Beefy Man.

Favourite Guest: Aranea??????? my wife??? my moon and stars, the quit-mopin-keep-hopin love of my life, the reason I get out of bed in the morning?????

Favourite Minor Character: Talcott ;n; my Tiny Tipster does so well and is so strong and he deserves the world and everything good in it. Cindy is a very close second. She’s so precious and I would fight the world for her if Prompto weren’t already doing that. (He is and y’all know it.)

Favourite Villain: ..................listen. I really like Loqi Tummelt, okay. It’s kind of ridiculous.

Favourite Kingsglaive Character: GEE, I WONDER. IT COULDN’T POSSIBLY BE PELNA KHARA. THAT’D BE RIDICULOUS.

Favourite Astral/Divine Being: You know? I’m actually really fascinated by Ifrit for a lot of reasons. I wanna know moreeeeee. (I also am a sucker for the AU where he inhabits Nyx’s body after death.)

Favourite Character Overall: I already mentioned Gladio and Pelna, so barring them... it’s a tie, between Ignis and Lunafreya. I love their respective dedications to and love for Noctis, however it manifests itself.

Favourite Weapon: Literally any polearm. Them airsteps are straight magic once you have enough AP.

Favourite Locations: Galdin Quay, Altissia, Insomnia, Zegnautus Keep, and Tenebrae are my top five (in no particular order).

Favourite Quest/Questline/Hunt: Really, any quest that involved getting the royal arms. Those dungeons were my favorite! I also really enjoyed infiltrating the Niff forts... which is funny, because I normally haaaaaaaate stealth missions and timed quests. I blame Ignis’s voice. It’s always Ignis’s voice.

Favourite Boss: In the main game, either Aranea or the joint Caligo/Loqi fight! In the DLCs, dat Alternate Ending Ardyn Fight. It took me three tries and on the third try I beat him in, exactly, fifty-eight seconds. Without risking my life.

Favourite Monster/Monster Family/etc: Spiracorns! They’re so graceful and majestic. (The only time I don’t like them is for That One Quest in Comrades, because NOPE.)

Favourite Song: CALLING FOR FUCKING RAIN, MY DUDES. But honorable mentions go to Noctis’s Theme, the instrumental version of Somnus, Ignis’s Theme(THAT VIOLIN THO), Stand Your Ground, and Hellfire

Favourite Boss Theme: Apocalypsis Aquarius (the Leviathan battle theme)! It takes what was created with the Titan theme and builds on it in such a way that it actually sounds... well. Watery. To me anyway.

Favourite Non-Episode DLC/Update/Event: Y’ALL, THE ASSASSIN’S FESTIVAL WAS LIT. I hope it comes back, it was too much fun.

Favourite DLC: oh, Episode Ignis for sure. Squeenix out here giving us the ending we deserved? P L E A S E. (I say this, and yet I’m hopeless for getting kicked to the ground by Aranea Highwind. YEEHAW)

Other Favourites of Note: my favorite thing is the unspoken fandom consensus that All the Girls Are Gay and that Crowe Altius secretly survived the infiltration and rode off into the sunset with Lunafreya Nox Fleuret.

taggin @sailorprompto, @vashiane, and @marianne-dash-wood, but if you want to do it, consider yourself tagged too!

FFXV Favourites Meme

I came across this via @lhugbereth and thought I needed to do this!

instructions:

To celebrate a year of FFXV and the end of the first year of updates, let’s spread the FFXV love! I haven’t seen a tag meme like this for FFXV yet, so I decided to make one. If you see this and want to, copy/paste this list and share what your favorite things about FFXV are.

Favorite Chocobro: Ignis. It’s always Ignis.The man is good looking, stylish, dedicated and just the right amount of dork. Find me a husband like that.

Favorite Guest Party Member (including Ravus and Libertus from DLC): That’s quite hard actually, because all of them are so neat. But I think I’ll have to go with Aranea, sassiest woman in the house.

Favorite Minor Character(s): DINO. Totally. That flamboyant guy is just too hilarious for anything.

Favorite Villain: Excuse me while I scream Ardyn from the top of a dark misty mountain with all my might, loud and clearly. This wonderfully twisted man with dark past and excellent humour is the fanciest and sassiest badass villain I ever met. I would let him step on me.

Favorite Kingsglaive Character: I’m sorry for the mainstream, but: Nyx. I thought about Regis, I really did. But it came down to Nyx. (And Luna in that combo)

Favorite Astral/Divine Being: Ifrit. Somehow I got reluctant to take Shiva. She’s beautiful but lately she’s giving me the creeps. Ifrit is the answer. I want to imagine a tragic fate behind him turning against the other Gods. And I like fire as element in general.

Favorite Character Overall: IGNIS. I will never waver or back down on that one. He’s the one. There are so many good characters, like: I really like Cor? But Ignis just beats all of them.

Favorite Weapon: Daggers and polearms in general. I just love the fighting style. In terms of power it of course would have to be the Ring of the Lucii.

Favorite Location: Altissia, I guess. I am living trash for Venice, so the first time I saw Altissia I was just blown away. I love that city. It might have gotten outshined by Tenebrae I think, but as you don’t really get to see it ingame...

Favorite Quest/Questline/Hunt: I liked the Quezalcoatl one pretty much. The surroundings with the water above in the ruins were really beautiful.

Favorite Boss: The Melusine (was that what she was called?) update quest was great. I will never forget the bitchslaps for Noct.

Favorite Monster/Monster Family/etc: Coeurls. Those felines are just beautiful and so deadly...

Favorite Song: Stand by me? I mean... yes? The OST overall is wonderful but that song always brings the feels.

Favorite Boss Theme: “Stand your ground” is great, same as “Veiled in black” but my absolute favourite is Apocalypsis Noctis.

Favorite Non-Episode DLC/Update/Event: The Assassin one was great. I loved it.

Favorite Episode DLC: I might be repetitive but: IGNIS. So much story. So much content, so many feels. Thank you SE.

Other Favorites of Note: The graphics and the beautiful artworks or this game. Everything is so detailed, well thought out and things are not left to chance. Even with its flaws, this world is so complex and well thought through, I love it. That realistic hair and clothing stuff, the nature... I could go on for years, but to cut it short: visuals and the closeness to reality.

FFXV threw me into my very first fandom experience and I’m not going to leave here. I feel welcomed and at home. It’s the reason I started tumblr, the cause for meeting many wonderful people, hours of fandom talk and good fanfictions and art. Guys, thank you so so much for all the fun. Feel hugged and I can’t wait for more of the good fun next year.

Do the meme if you like, leave it alone if you don’t. If you do: feel free to let me know <3 Let’s continue to walk tall, my friends.
