I'M NOT EXAGGERATING WHEN I SAY THIS QUOTE SINGLEHANDEDLY CHANGED THE COURSE OF MY LIFE IN 2022
estinien talking to vrtra: "will you wallow in sorrow or rise to the occasion?"
i never talk about him bc i'm so thoroughly emi-pilled rn but i had to save his lodestone picture to send as a ref to bf so

here's my bunboy mint. i love him and he's been waiting for me to play hvw on him for like a year and a half lmao. maybe one day i will hang out with my boy 😩💖
male rava viera with pale green shoulder length hair and light yellow-green highlights
i'm pretty sure she was in a mild fugue state through the entirety of the moon part of msq, except when urianger started his subterfuge shit again which snapped her back. she very nearly swung on him until he apologized and admitted his role in their strained relationship lol
also not included bc i was focusing solely on the immediate moment + aftermath but she does not cope well for a while. it's the first major breaking point for her, and she was EXHAUSTED and over everything. i don't think she really started to heal until she beat zenos to death tbh
there's a version of this where i imagine he growls "give me my wife back" along with a string of very violent threats i can't come up with right this second but i haven't decided if that's something he would realistically say in the moment (which means it probably isn't idk) (i overthink things)
it was a real bad fuckin time for everyone but especially her #emirin #emistinien
that's prime back hurty age unfortunately

im replaying heavensward
let a girl discover her love of stabbing things with chopsticks from childhood and give her emi's spark and you've got a dangerous combo 😂 akari's the kid with the big imagination who always wants to play hero and climb trees while éloïse is happy to read/draw and eat macarons under said tree lol
i haven't written much with them since emi still is ultima thule hell, but akari has absolutely made her personality known lmao. she's going to be a spitfire troublemaker and éloïse is absolutely going to be the one adopting estinien's exhausted sighs while apologizing for her sister 😂
also their middle names are their grandmothers names (at least until a side story decides to smite me) - éloise's middle name is midori (emi's mom) and akari's is mireille (estinien's mom)

the girls also grow up to be taller than most auri women, the elezen trait they got from their dad lol
yes!!! i disagree with game lore that limbal rings are purely cosmetic, they're genetic in emi's lore (though they can be cosmetically altered). emi gets her limbal ring on her right eye from her mom (but her dad's eye color, he has both rings). so the girls split the difference lol
É is the quieter one. she's creative & witty like her mom, tempered & observant like her dad. she learns archery & becomes a bard
A is the louder one. she's passionate & sarcastic like her mom, loyal & motivated like her dad. she learns the lance at a very young age & becomes a dragoon #emirin
augh i really need to draw these girls

éloïse and akari, their twins born sometime....before or during dawntrail who knows yet

éloïse is named after an ishgardian knight of legend and akari is from the hingan word for starlight. their names absolutely fit their personalities #emirin

Now's the time to call up Visa/MC to ask 'hey, how come you guys will pay for ChatGPT and Twitter subs but I can't buy certain games off of Steam?' Because I frankly would LOVE an answer to that...
Sam Altman suggests ChatGPT is cannibalizing your fanfic and erotica to make its own clanker porn, rolling out this December.
ChatGPT just got filthy after new update lets it talk dirty to you

i will warn that it's harder though, my bf's brother who has a bs in cyber and has the net+ and sec+ tried for the cysa+ this year and didn't get it, so it could always be a goal to work towards. but the sec+ is def easy if you know wireshark, ports & networks, & offensive/defensive techniques
yeah i'm in school for compsci rn bc my art degree is useless so i feel that 😂 also cysa+ is the cybersec analyst cert! it's also from comptia and the next step above sec+ (so they go like, net+ and a+ > sec+ > cysa+) www.comptia.org/en-us/certif...
ALSO if you are smart enough to do a master's in cybersec then holy moly. you could probably easily go for the cysa+ if you really wanted, which would open even MORE doors!
thanks 💖 i will say, several recruiters i interviewed with told me that if you get the sec+, that usually is good enough to qualify for jobs requiring net+ bc it's a higher tier cert. dunno if that's still the case, but something to research if you don't wanna pay for two exams lol
i have sec+! i actually need to study to renew it next year lmao. it does unfortunately bar entry into a lot of things, when i was job searching three years ago (before i got certified) that was often the first question asked 😩

but i believe in you! it's not too bad if you can learn acronyms

Paypal is now playing harder ball on artists, going after anyone even mentioning commissions.

Artists, send invoices. That way, no one has to say what the money is for on Paypal's paper trail.

Customers, SAY NOTHING about commissions. Just say "thanks" on donos.

Everyone: INCREASE THE CALLS.

SHE FOLLOWS IT UP WITH 'it's about to be the sleepless night you've been dreaming of' why would it be anything OTHER THAN 'your thighs' lmaoooo god. do better at being horny ma'am
i know the lyrics are 'keep it one hundred on the land, the sea, the sky / pledge allegiance to your hands, your team, your vibes'

but i simply think it being 'your hands, your team, your thighs' is the better choice and will always be singing that instead lmao
