// (Pronounced rhyming with 'soon.'
Low-aether, high-dynamis shetona with emotion-based pictomancy and ever-changing eyes. Quiet verbally, expressive in other ways. 🔞 DT location mentions, but no MSQ spoilers yet past EW.

// Wanted to redo this gpose with the correct tattoos, and some other adjustments. So.... I finally did. #📷 #ffxiv #gpose
Can't decide how I feel about the background being more visible. Feels like the ambience went away a bit, but I quite like the Zenos staring on in the BG so.

Shun was also really hard, but the difference of the correct tattoos in Whispers made it rise to the top over Fight or Dance. Honestly, though, these are among the gposes I'm happiest with *ever*, so it really did just come down to the tattoos in the end deciding between them.

Shun Day 30: Paradox
Time travel, closed loops, recursive actions... It all made very little sense to Shun, and thought he understood more than Deimos (who had little patience for it), that really wasn't saying much...

Shun Day 28: Direct
After being retrieved from Zenos' and Fandaniel's clutches, Shun found himself with certain... 'appetites' that he turned to Sett to sate, and which he was 'less than subtle' about.

Shun Day 28: Drifting
The longer he went without sight of his mirror, the less vibrant the world seemed to be. Shun sank deeper and deeper into that endless monotone grey, even the sites of their fights unable to stir more than the thinnest of colours from him.

Shun Day 27: Sad
Shun wasn't in time to stop Zenos, and as the life faded from the former prince's eyes, so too did the colours fade from Shun's world, leaving only the echoes of man and dragon to break through the grey-blue around him.

Shun Day 26: Sky
Shun had traveled the length of Tural by land once, but never by sky. Soaring and sweeping through the air and alternating between a perch atop Shinryu's head and being carried by claws when he tired was beyond anything he could have imagined.

Shun Day 25: Jump
Unable to let go of Fandaniel, Shun jumped after him, no plan in his mind beyond his obsessive unwillingness to let the ascian go.Fortunately for him, he was retrieved by Zenos, who swooped in to save him as Shinryu just as Fandaniel reached Zodiark.

Shun Day 24: Whispers
A hero in one ear, whispering to be good and save people, and an ascian in the other, encouraging him to indulge in his deepest, darkest influences. Behind it all.. Looming over Shun's life is the man that has consumed him since they first fought.

Shun Day 23: Euphoria
Nothing brings Shun such intense, strong emotions as being near Zenos, regardless of what form that may take, able to share such bliss right back through his wielding of Dynamis.

Shun Day 22: Flower
Much like the Elpis flower given to Sett, Shun counts as an entelechy, able to see and wield dynamis thanks to his particularly thin/weak aether.
He'd lived for ~300 years without knowing why he was the way he was, and Elpis finally brought answers.

Shun Day 21: Favourite Zone
Shun wasn't able to be called to the First, as his aether was too weak to be moved, but if he had... I imagine he would have very much enjoyed painting the vibrant colours of Il Mheg.
(So not ICly a favourite zone, but easily my fave OOCly.)
