Redrew one of the One Piece color spreads w/ the Scions (+Vrtra) just for fun. I love mashing things I love together

[twilight-owl]

So, I made a FFXIV island on Tomodachi Life. I made QR codes for all the Miis, so go nuts ya'll.

Check the notes for the codes etc, etc.

Welcome

Hello and welcome to my blog! You may remember me from the terrible, awful bird app as MrLarkstin, the dragon kisser. That one guy who ships with Vrtra and Estinien!

And when I say I ship with the dragon I mean the actual dragon, mister Vrtra himself! Big Varshahn is great, and easy to pose with, but I usually try to work with the actual dragon since- thats who Eramus is attracted to!

Here you will mostly find my gposes and lore rambles when the mood takes me, but more often then not lore is kept on my private twitter (EraAfterDark) simply because I just feel more comfy. But here tends to be a big gpose dump!

I do a lot of weird, artsy kinda gposes that involve my Azem and WoL and various other parts of his lore!

I write when the mood takes me, which is either constant or like once in a blue moon.

My AO3 is only available for registered users (sorry, I write dragon kissing and I don't like randos being weird in my comments LMAO)

Other then that, welcome!

Thanks for stopping by!

Oh, I do RP and he has entirely different lore for RP purposes so like. Hi.

[brineffxiv]

In Radz-at-Han, Vrtra (via Varshahn) is preparing to make his grand announcement.

I can feel his fear and trepidation; no less than this great calamity could have prompted him to reveal his secret, so afraid was he of his people rejecting him.

It will be alright. They will see how much you care for them.

It is a lovely speech. His people do not yet know him, but they will. And they are willing to extend the same trust to him that he extends to them in this moment. Together, they will get through this.

That it would have. I hope that wherever she is now - the aetherial sea, or perhaps reborn? - that she knows where the path she started us down has led us.

Oh great. These fuckers again.

To his credit, Fourchenault recovers quickly when he discovers he's going to have to negotiate policy with a Great Wyrm. He quickly and succinctly gives a brief explanation of the Final Days, and what the Forum has been planning.

...I am both surprised and relieved. It's clear I need to reassess my view of Sharlayan; I was convinced that, being so insular, they would only seek to rescue their own people. Fourchenault has risen in my estimation. Marginally.

Vrtra will meet and discuss the details of this plan of evacuation with the Forum members in Meghaduta. I am heartened to learn that the decision will ultimately be up to the individuals to decide; Vrtra truly is a good leader.

Nidhana has caught up with us: she has a theory to share!

Y'know, I asked that exact question when Y'shtola first said they didn't have any aether. Without it, how do they exist at all?

Nidhana's theory, then, is based on the fact that strong negative emotions trigger the transformation. She posits that akasa is the alternate energy that the beasts are animated by.

That... would make sense. Because my flower seems to be influenced by the same force, and...

Aaaand it just exploded into black dust.

Well, if akasa is the force behind the flower's color-changing effect, then I think it's safe to say that there's something really fucked up influencing our surroundings right now.

*narrows eyes*

...Didn't Hydaelyn say that the flower would guide me? Or something to that effect?

That seems to imply... That Hydaelyn knows akasa is the force behind the Final Days. That She knew all the way back in Labyrinthos.

Why...

Okay, this doesn't make any sense. Because She may be incredibly frustrating, but She's not evil. ...Is She? That doesn't make sense either. She made the Loporrits out of love for us. She gave us a backup plan. If She knows what's causing the Final Days, why would She let us run about in circles trying to figure the answer out?? She must know about the akasa connection, because literally the only thing the flower does is react to it. Why else give it to me??

Is this like the Forum? Like. She literally can't tell me? But why? What rule could possibly constrain a being like Her?

This is... Really fucking fishy. I don't like this. I have a really bad feeling.

Yeah. And now I don't even have the flower to guide me.

Oh look I suddenly have a million (five) quests to distract me, better go do them...

Sadly the only classes I have at 90 are Sage and Paladin, so those are the only ones I can complete. Everything else I can only do up to level 87.

But, I did notice something curious while completing the Healer quest?

Fordola clearly sees the soul of Charlet, the man who became the blasphemy, walk off to join those of their deceased friends... According to everything Y'shtola said, this should not be possible? There should be nothing left of his soul? And yet there is. I am leery of getting my hopes up, but maybe the souls of those changed are not completely destroyed after all?

A mystery...

Anyway. I have a dinner to attend.

We have to remember, what we saw in Amaurot was end-stage. It is what is coming, but we still have time to stop it. Before things get that bad.

And now we understand why half the star was willing to give up their lives to summon Zodiark, don't we?

No, Y'shtola, you've got that backwards. Zodiark stopped the Final Days. Hydaelyn was the one who sundered everything in the process of subduing Him.

But, that's besides the point. Hydaelyn won't - I'm starting to suspect can't - tell us anything more. We're going to have to find our way from here without Her.

This is why I need to stop solving all my problems with murder.

What.

...But it might. There might be some fragment of his soul still in the Crystal Tower. Well, goddamn.

And so, I will go to the First. Y'shtola will seek to contact Hydaelyn in the aetherial sea. Alphinaud will rendezvous with the various world leaders and ascertain how far the Final Days are progressing. Estinien will--

????

Emet-Selch?

Are you...?

Hooooly Shit.

You can see me. You're not just narrating: you're watching me.

...And you know something I don't.

Round 2: Alisaie Leveilleur vs Varshan

"She's been carrying a crippling inferiority complex for most of her life, believing she's not good enough and no one would ever like her or rely on her like they do her brother. She got two girlfriends and both of them get killed for character development. She cries on screen more than any other character and she deserves to be comforted and told she's loved."

"After 6.4 Varshan absolutely gets all the hugs."

[stxrmnight]

6.3 A Bright... Detour?

Damn when did zerosthola break up

I just thougth the early morning gang was amusing

Nemi thought that roar was really strange... unless they found a huge void portal there is no way she would've escaped. This can't really be it right?

"Oh, I can do that too, just watch!" /shares the eye and makes Vrtra get on edge/ "Oh, sorry"

Varshahn in the coat is cute, but it's odd he wouldn't think of blending in. Lack of experience I guess?

haha can you imagine if the lemures or someone sent by them was here. No seriously it's kind of odd how there is no one else

Hmm, I don't have the rest of this scene but, I feel her questioning of things could have been smoothed over. Like cooperation is more logical in a world that isn't in the Void's conditions. I feel that could have been a good segway of, coliving but still not really getting it and making mistakes. I'll still stick to msq reactions in these posts but it's hard when the overall execution is this awkward

"I think you two are kind of similar actually, just with different temperaments"

"What do you mean by that?"

"You're blunt and to the point, and don't see the point of things you don't quite understand."

"Hey! I'm not that disregarding!" "Hmm, is that really that problematic? It just isn't my business you know"

"I'm just speaking in general. Don't fuss over it Zero, I like getting to know you and, I don't think there's anything wrong with living how you've had to."

Alisae having suspicions now.

I wish this bond was the focus of Zero seeing the logic of cooperation ngl

Alisae's embarrassment at this part was cute. I think her crush has smoother over by now and she's accepted Nemi's more sisterly guardian edges. She's also super emotionally in orbit of others which, makes Nemi very proud.

"Damn bitch you live like this?"

I think we deduce enough from her living circumstances in the Void, but I think her relating some betrayal or double entendre attempt in the early days of the Darkness shift, since she is less sensible to hunger (?), could have been a good fold for the audience to get her better than we do

I almost missed this point of her finding community living familiar. I feel accompanying her while she does more of this willingly to

I wonder how others read this, but this frankly makes sense: she didn't truly come here out of true will and she isn't inscribed to the local camp, shitty of a move as it objectively is. If Jullus was a character less diminished by context, I'd ponder the how he got the wind of Zero's strange logic to not protest it further despite not knowing her circumstances.

!!!!!!!!!!! LEVELS OF AUTISM: TERMINAL!!!!

Damn hit post limit. Check out this crow

Made both of these designs to make merch for myself & friends (a standee for the first and a keychain for the second) but as they’re for characters who aren’t exactly awash in merchandise, I also threw them up on redbubble as stickers if anyone’s interested!

Radz-at-Han sticker

Vrtra/Estinien sticker

[elfyourmother]

having many Thoughts today about the effect being so thoroughly and intensely suffused with Vrtra’s aether during the Endsinger fight had on Gisèle

I don’t think it changed her to the extent Estinien was by his possession but there had to be some kind of permanent physical changes. maybe little fangs. but mostly internal 👀 like similar effects as her Ishgardians have naturally from their draconic ancestry 👀👀👀

[echthr0s]

Vrtra: "yeah soooo I just thought I should probably make a fully-grown Au Ra avatar for myself bc, you know, it's better suited for, like, battle and stuff? than the young-boy one? so... yeah.... that's why"

Dayir and Estinien: *knowing looks at each other*

[sntoot]

new glams thanks to the alliance raid coins :) ive been waiting to make this glam for hoso since the lunar envoy shirt dropped

[misswarrioroflight]

Vrtra watching me try to climb the Radz-At-Han jumping puzzle for hours (I got it)

My tired ass tagged this as "not my art" even though it is my art I am just silly

[lesbiankoby]

ahewann’s hair color is really strange btw. anyway. she’s blue. absolutely nobody recognizes her except thancred who is like surely that cannot be the princess of radz-at-han and then got possessed immediately and had other things to worry about.

that thavnirian wol / oc centric fic about alt dragoon questline would be quite fun actually. estinien scrapes this auri girl off the snow where she’s passed out face down piss drunk giving off disconcerting dragon vibes (disconcerting azure dragoon vibes except not at all because vrtra actually likes his hot mess niece) and they have a very antagonistic dragoon mentorship about it until he blows himself up. amen.
