Civilian mims who have nothing immediately useful to offer would stay in stasis. But hospitality workers, chefs, therapists, entertainers, & similar would be awake to help maintain the illusion of humanity while on the ship, & also keep the active crew's mental health/sanity in check. Just my guess😅

as well as engineers/mechanics. Next priority would be construction workers building NLA while the ship's drifting through space. And maybe once the city started to take shape, more people who are knowledgeable about running businesses would be woken up to start bringing life/commerce to the city.

have been at least 40% randomized and 60% rigged for the rich elite. That's why we got this mix of regular civilians like Jo along with the people Lao hated lol

As for the active crew, I assume soldiers would be awake from the start since they're the main line of defense against the alien pursuers,

activated, either as part of the active crew or after crash landing on Mira? (And then, would there be a gap in everyone's memories from when their minds were first uploaded, vs everything they experienced in their real bodies after that?)

Back to the main topic, I think the selection process must

even work... 🫠 Would that mean people's minds were scanned/uploaded to the Lifehold without them even knowing? And if everyone left their real bodies behind on Earth, was there still a consciousness in those bodies up until they died, or did they "fall asleep" and wake up as soon as their mims were

I've also been wondering about the selection process and active crew ever since playing the DE. 🤔 I specifically remember Lao criticizing the ECP for lying about how no one could know if they'd been selected or not until after the ship had already evacuated, but I could never understand how that'd

also only now noticed i put Cyrene in the middle out of habit when there's no point (since she doesn't gain energy from getting hit) 😅. but it doesn't really matter once Phainon activates his Ult anyway i guess ヽ(´ー`)ノ

Headaches are the worst 😔 Hope you can get the piece done 🤞✨ but also make sure not to push yourself too hard 💖

i guess it's not a cliff exactly but... this is what i do lmao 🤡 probably not as efficient as walking up to it, and definitely not any safer either 😂
"creative" is a kind way of putting it 😅
December 6, 2025 at 6:42 AM
Ooh, so you can grab the item like that 😳 my method was always to jump up from next to that cliff and hope I'd get close enough to grab it before alerting the Grexes 🤡
Love the contrast of Nat just calmly walking up to it while Chloris thinks up the weirdest methods possible to clear the quest 🤣
December 6, 2025 at 5:10 AM
A lot harder to justify Ga Jiarg not even being able to wrap bandages around himself 🤡

We were totally robbed 😔 He doesn't even get to use his own Wrothian Skell like in his boss fight 💔 Add it to the list of things to beg for alongside a XCX2 sequel 😅💦
December 6, 2025 at 4:52 AM
Thanks 🥲❤️ It feels weird to get a break from drawing finally, but I will definitely give my wrist a small vacation this weekend 😅

And sure, I can believe that most of the Six Stars gear might have been made for humans... but the Ritual gear is literally just bandages wrapped around the torso/arms 🫠

I won't accept anyone other than Yelv finding her 👀 it was fate!!! 💖 (Was she still found in Primordia, tho? 🤔)

Good for Nat not being forced to fight in this AU 😅 Live out your barista dreams 💕
December 6, 2025 at 2:09 AM
!!! Happy birthday!!!! 💖🥳✨ I hope you have a wonderful day and yummy treats to eat 🍰💕

Yap as much as you want 😌 no one can stop you!! (or at least I won't 😅)
December 6, 2025 at 1:35 AM
praying for your success 😂🙏✨
December 5, 2025 at 11:42 PM
Boze and Ga Jiarg are wearing monk robes for proper meditation ✨ tho I actually thought of putting them in the Six Stars Ritual gear... until I went to check what Ga Jiarg looks like in them 🤡

man can't even wear clothes made by his own people 🤣💀
December 5, 2025 at 9:23 PM
Was hoping chibis would save me some time/wrist pain but nope 😔 still worked nonstop to the last minute & wrist ended up hurting like crazy 🫠💀 + still not sure the final result was worth the pain... but i guess i don't hate it? 🙃

Elma is XCX's most iconic character so she gets special treatment 😌
December 5, 2025 at 9:23 PM
damn, this game needs to stop giving me reasons to go back, i've been trying to retire for like a full year now 😭💀
December 5, 2025 at 9:06 PM
was going to complain about the ugly full body caster/healer robes again but then i remembered they're finally lifting glamour/job restrictions so

i can't wait to see how cute my lala looks in the striking set 🥺💖💞
December 5, 2025 at 9:06 PM
I really like the last photo of the sunset too, and I'm glad it fits as the perfect "closer" to this journey ❤️ I put the most effort into that one since... it's Elma lol + sunsets are always fun to render 🥰✨
