Foxes In Love @foxes-in-love.bsky.social · 13h

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue and Green are sitting with their backs facing each other, both deep in their own thoughts.

Blue turns to listen as Green turns to look at him over his shoulder.
Green: Did I just say that out loud?

Blue frowns in confusion.
Blue: ...No?

Green turns back around, seeming relieved. Blue continues to stare at him, deeply baffled and suspicious.
Green: Oh, thank goodness.

The fact that any webbrowser will flashbang you with nothing but a white screen when a page is struggling is proof we do not, in fact, live in a polite society.

a recreation of the infamous Bayonetta and Jeanne meme, with text at the top that reads "When your double-income, no-kids, lesbian aunts show up to unleash the gift reckoning on Christmas." Below is an image of Y'shtola Rhul and Wyra Mewrilah with a Starlight Celebration tree and presents behind them, and each wearing Starlight Celebration attire. They're smiling.

look at this adorable AdaRaha @missconduck.bsky.social did, so much joy and love in one image

Digital drawing of Adalyn, a ffxiv hyur with extensive burn scars on her shoulder/neck, and G'raha. Adalyn laughs with one eye squeezed shut as G'raha leans up to press a kiss to her cheek, his own eyes closed. His ears wiggle happily.

nik // hag

@leylin.es

was talking to some people about this in-game and it came to my attention that there is a whole generation of xiv players who didn't see the nier rein crossover weapon stories
so i decided to throw them together in an accessible format

nier reincarnation art for vanargand, and its weapon story:
The black mage who wove the arts of destruction thinks of
the calamity to come in 2,300 years. Will oral traditions change?
Will books become ash?
So she sends her own memories into the far future.
In short, the black mage made a bet and won. 2,300 years later,
her memories are revived, and she is surprised to learn the
taboo magic she created has been discovered and learned
by certain other mages.
The mage joins her future adherents to fight monsters who
seek to bring about the calamity by summoning the stars.
Their only hope is her magic of destruction—the very
same magic that already took so many lives.
The mages use the arts of destruction to save the world,
unbeknown to many. But before vanishing, the great dark
mage leaves her pride and joy⁠—her staff—to her disciple.
It is an old thing, with the remains of a monster at its head.

nier reincarnation art for gae bolg, and its weapon story:
In the snowy mountains to the north lies a land that
has warred with dragons for an age. And among its
people, mighty knights known as dragoons raise
their spears high to protect the people.
As a shepherd boy stands before the corpse of his
younger brother in a ruined home, he makes a vow
to slay the black dragon who took all from him. He
then casts aside his crook and takes up a spear.
The former shepherd boy becomes a dragoon. His
eyes are clouded; he speaks little. While knights
shudder to see him slaying dragons with a smile,
his master and friend know he has a warm heart.
His revenge now complete, the dragoon removes his
helm. But he never drops the spear, for he now knows
the dragon sought vengeance for its sister. And
soon, he will call his weapon by the dragon's name.

nier reincarnation art for murgleis, and its weapon story:
Once, a magical civilization flourished. People created factions
and built nations, but soon began to fight over further wealth.
This is how the great war began—one which led to destruction.
After the war, the balance of nature crumbled, as did society.
A great flood consumed the world, killing many and
sparing few; these survivors followed the
stars and fled to the steep mountains.
When old enemies came together at the peaks,
terrible fights broke out over what food remained.
Yet some did not lose hope, calling on
people to share knowledge and obtain a tomorrow for all.
As old enemies came up with new magicks and skills to
fight annihilation, a notable swordsman lifted high his blade and
spread his secrets. Some named this betrayal,
but he remained firm in his beliefs.

nier reincarnation art for shadowbringer, and its weapon story:
There was once a world filled with light which ate
away at life and withered the land. But one rebelled
against fate and fought the light with his black
greatsword—one known as the Warrior of Darkness.
Warped by light, the sin eaters dragged the world
toward destruction. But as the warrior continued his
journey, the light began to eat away at him, and he
lost the strength to wield his greatsword.
When his last foe fell, light spilled from the warrior,
transforming the hero into one who pushed back the
dark. Yet even so, his sword supported him, and he
found the strength to continue on.
He defeated the ancient mage. He snuffed out the
primordial hero. The Warrior of Darkness persevered
through adversity and returned darkness to the sky,
thus the people named his sword "Shadowbringer."

Koana, the Vow of Reason, smiles as he watches over his people. Summre takes in the moment peacefully.

Summre: We should totally fuck later.

Zenos: "I see that you too take pride in a meal prepared from the beasts slain by your own hand"

Zenos: "So you do enjoy the heat of battle when it suits you. In that, at least, I was right about you."

Zenos: "So you too struck down your own father. I suppose we both understand how it feels to be seen only as a tool by your own parent."

Juksie: "Hey so why the fuck did it take so long for us to actually become friends?"

Zenos: "I believe it was because we were on opposite sides of a war. And I also stole your body and almost killed your twink."

Juksie: "Oh, yeah. That would do it."
