Do something nice for a creative person today. Leave a comment on a fic or a piece of art. Tell them their work impacted you.

It sucks out here, and a little genuine love goes a long way toward helping us feel like what we do is worth it.

Shea used to shut down. ARR and a good chunk of HW he was catatonic and would just be this shell. After meeting those important to him Shea reveals more emotion and becomes more controlled.

The sun comes back and warms the world.

Today's Card is the Creator of Vials: The wisdom of emotions.

Over the course of your WOL/OC's journey, how have they handled their emotions? Would you say they're in control of their emotions now or do their emotions still control them?

KOSA passed out of the subcommittee in the House on 13-10 vote. Meaning that they are FINALLY listening to some opposition. But not enough to prevent the other age verification bills from passing, let alone this.

They MUST listen to opposition. Losing this fight is NOT an option.

Getting caught? Nope, before Rion he was a goddamn virgin.

He has accidentally walked in on others though!

He is the adopted son of Aymeric de Borel. You talk shit about his dad and he'll fite you.

He's also a cousin of Zenos since Emet stuck his dick in the baby making process his parents had going on. He does not affiliate with the Garlean royal family whatsoever.
is your oc related to the scions/any other NPC in anyway?

For example, are you long lost cousins of Thancreds?
Always been curious! (does not include marrital, I'm talking blood related/adopted) #wolqotd

This has probably been asked so forgive me

Bugs.

Shea lived in the Burn for a few years so he cooked up bugs a lot of the time.

He doesn't mind it but he does get self conscious when others cringe and freak out.

The first meal he made for his siblings. How they lit up at the stew and laughed and made him feel like for once he took care of them.

The first time he saw magic used out of combat. The first show dancers appeared in. Nebula picking him as her rider.

A lot of firsts...

Shea only had one active relationship before Rion, that being Haruchefaunt. His death destroyed him but also opened so many doors.

It led to Rion, it led to his adoptive family, it led to his FC/found family. Does he miss him? Yes but that ending led to a new beginning!
If your wol is or has been in a relationship, how many relationships have they been in before their current/last partner?

Did that previous relationship bring some consequences to the current one? Or affect how your oc regards relationships? #wolqotd

When it comes to his own fan base, Shea has zero perception. Like none. He has to be reminded that people he doesnt interact with like him.

There's no fucking way he's going to find out nor has the energy to care.

Is your OC okay with knowing someone they may or may not know could be gooning to them?

If the writer’s eyes light up when asked, “why did the character do that?” then it’s real.

Shea has a huge fear of corpses, especially after being left behind by Edda Pureheart's party in Tam Tara. So when it comes to the undead he has PTSD.
#Advent-urerCalendar Day 6

Is there a particular enemy or mob type that makes your adventurer wants to avoid fighting?

For example, Do Hecteyes freak them out? or Do rabbits give them PTSD? Do they fear the chances that any chest could be a mimic?

How Shea celebrates it as its also New Year's Eve is he goes to a few friend's parties or his family and FC throws a huge party to celebrate his day. Afterwards he spends the night with his husbun celebrating in their own special way.

It's tbd rn about the party thing.
#wolqotd ##wolquestion

In honor of me and my wol birthday, How do y'all wol celebrate their birthday? Do they have a party or is it just another day for them? Or do their friends throw them a party?

Shea actually has had drugs when he was in Dalmasca. He can't remember the name of it and he was banned after the person who gave it to him learned he was 16 at the time.

He's still banned from mind altering substances not that he would want to experience it again.
