Yeah. We can stop by your quarters but after that, I want you to join me for a drink. I promised you one as celebration for your becoming Dawnservant and though it wasn’t the way you expected, I still owe you.

[He has a boyish smirk. What was he scheming…?]

// as a former flautist (I played for 3 months in marching band in an act of rebellion against color guard) none of my OCs would play flute :D

Tsuki is on some kind of drum and Theo likely is second trumpet or saxophone.

#wolqotd prompted by the new Eorzean Symphony art:

what instrument would your WoL/OC play alongside the Scions in the orchestra?

Thancred Waters @roguishgunblade.bsky.social · 21d

—to find Noel. He has a terrible habit of wandering off. I turn my back for one moment and next thing I know, he’s probably off trying to wrestle Bakool Ja Ja or some nonsense.

Thancred Waters @roguishgunblade.bsky.social · 21d

[Noel seems too absorbed in his book to bother. It was… certainly a sight to see a boy his age studying military theory outside of Ishgard or Sharlayan.]

[Meanwhile, Thancred stops, noticing the Vow of Reason.]

Koana, good. I was looking for you. I wanted to ask you something but first, I need—

Thancred Waters @roguishgunblade.bsky.social · 21d

You should ask his husband to help you next time. She’s good enough to be the Manderville’s personal chef when they stop by the Bismarck.

Hey! Be careful. That materia is expensive…

- Aster Edinth ⊚ @machinalemure.bsky.social · 21d

[He’s already extracting some of the materia]

Thancred Waters @roguishgunblade.bsky.social · 21d

I need to tune some of my other gear. But as a joke, going faster would be funny.

Your speed is 2.35 with you stating you wanted it faster.

Thancred Waters @roguishgunblade.bsky.social · 21d

2.4 is just fine! You’re just a stubborn machinist.

[He’s updating his to-do list]

[-Perform maintenance on Thancred’s gunblade. Speed needs to be realigned.]

Thancred Waters @roguishgunblade.bsky.social · 21d

And yet the man has a gift for alchemizing meals together just fine. Don’t ask how.

Thancred Waters @roguishgunblade.bsky.social · 21d

A friend of mine. A terrible cook. He’s quite horrible. If you thought archon loaf was bad, his creations are worse.

Thancred Waters @roguishgunblade.bsky.social · 21d

Thank the gods you didn’t learn from Aster…

Thancred Waters @roguishgunblade.bsky.social · 22d

Was the person you watched an unusually short Xaela male with goggles?

Thancred Waters @roguishgunblade.bsky.social · 22d

Did you try following a recipe…?

Thancred Waters @roguishgunblade.bsky.social · 22d

—Thancred could be heard, sprinting around in full panic.]

Has anyone seen Noel?! He’s 11 years old, looks like me except with orange hair! Noel??? Noel!!!! Godsdammit kiddo, where are you?!

[Meanwhile Noel was perfectly content reading his book on Eorzea military strategy.]

Thancred Waters @roguishgunblade.bsky.social · 22d

“I could, but if I don’t call you Uncle Koana, I might be calling you Vow Koana instead, and that feels even more stiff.”

[Noel pulled out a book from his bag, an impressive sized one for one his age.]

“Oh… I may have wandered off from dad… oops.”

[In the distance, if you listen very carefully…—

Thancred Waters @roguishgunblade.bsky.social · 22d

How are you not a bigger mess?
Then again… I’ve seen worse with less damage so I shouldn’t be so quick to judge.

Thancred Waters @roguishgunblade.bsky.social · 22d

“Well… Uncle Ran’jit told me that a good guardian has good manners and if anyone took being a guardian seriously, it was that butthead.”
[Noel pouted for just a moment before composing himself.]
“I’ll wait here. Plus, dad’ll figure out I’m here too… eventually.”

Thancred Waters @roguishgunblade.bsky.social · 22d

Dear gods, how are you even… never mind.
[He tosses her a towel.]
Here.

Thancred Waters @roguishgunblade.bsky.social · 22d

[The boy shakes his head.]
“No. My dad was just looking for you. He’s out somewhere right now but I think he should be swinging by here soon.”
[Noel looks past Koana.]
“Have you seen Gulool Ja? He said we’d spar after he finished training for the day.”

Thancred Waters @roguishgunblade.bsky.social · 22d

A-Are you sure…?
[He is mildly horrified.]

Thancred Waters @roguishgunblade.bsky.social · 22d

[A little knock comes at @2ndpromise.bsky.social’s door. Who could it be?]
“E-Excuse me? Uncle Koana? Are you there?”
[The voice wasn’t Thancred’s but it sounded almost like a child version of the man.]

Thancred Waters @roguishgunblade.bsky.social · 28d

// the only ship that matters between jobs is scholar and warrior (at least to me). I can’t really ship jobs tho. Maybe the job reps you see in the art but otherwise I don’t feel it

TiffanyLockheart @tiffanylockheart.bsky.social · 29d

weird question but indulge me for a second:
do you guys ship any classes together?

like i personally love dancer/monk for some reason.
white mage/warrior is cute too. #ffxiv
