Question of the Day!

Which of the Scions is your WoL/OC closest with? Have there been any turning points in that relationship?

"I mean the obvious answer is probably Estinien, since we are, of course, dating. And that whole relationship has a lot of trouble getting off the ground what with the whole hating-all-dragonkind thing, but we worked it out in the end! I've got something of a crush on Y'shtola as well but she still kind of intimidates me. Pretty sure she knows, though. She teases me about it every so often.

"I think the most interesting case is probably G'raha Tia, though. I have to admit, I feel a little bad; I was completely oblivious to how infatuated the poor guy was with me for the longest time. But I was also incredibly dialed in to how much my friend Maya Capra was infatuated with him, which he was in turn oblivious to. So it was all a bit of a mess.

"Eventually Maya just sort of blurted it all out to him, and around the same time she also explained to me how in love with me he was. We all sort of had to have a bit of a sit-down to discuss it, but we managed to work it out. Now Maya is dating both of us and G'raha enables all sorts of wacky situations I manage to rope him into.

"Yeesh, my personal relationships are kind of all over the place. I gotta make, like, a chart for this stuff or something."

Question of the Day!

Does your WoL/OC have a trinket, garment, or accessory that they seem to always be wearing? Why is that? Do they just like the look of it, or is there some sort of personal sentiment attached to it?

(submitted by @sunlightFrequency)

Aigead has what a learnèd fellow may call a "passion for fashion" and so has a lot of ensembles she tends to switch around. But a few things she does try to keep in her rotation if she can include the Meteor Survivor ring given to her by Godbert the first time she met him (before even knowing who he was), the Manderville coatee (gifted to her by Nashu, and then given further alterations once she Fantasia'd into a female Viera), and the Inspector's Eyeglasses (which she got from Briardien after helping out with the Scholasticate case in Ishgard).

There was a period of time where she actually wore the glasses (as well as an assortment of monocles) out of necessity after sustaining an injury during the liberation of Ala Mhigo. However, over the course of Endwalker something happened to "fix" her injured eye and now she doesn't really need them anymore!

Side note: In the canon of my wife's WoL, Maya Capra, Aigead still has an injured eye sustained from a different point in the story's timeline.

Hey remember when we started FFXIV New Game+ like a year and a half ago? What if we continued, as a bit. Then, we brave the Louisiana heat, questionable film opinions, and all-around Jank in Deadly Premonition 2! Hope to see you there!
