She/her, but plays a male WoL (I need a more... personal image.) I came here for fandom and happiness, but I'm stuck in the US. :(
I write FF14 fanfiction and play indie video games.

I did marching band, but I was in the pit (and specialized in mallet instruments.) I suspect this explains my deep need to stand by the edge of the arena and not move unless I'm forced to.

Trump: No, the economy is fantastic, you have Trump derangement syndrome if you disagree with me. Also, look at my new clothes! If you say I'm naked that's also TDS.

There's no such thing as a fully red state-- the cities are almost always islands of sanity, and the magas will happily terrorize them to solidify their advantage.

The way I did it when I was figuring out how to write him was to separate the writing from the Urianger dialect-izing. Write down his dialogue in plain English, then go back and edit it-- swap out his pronouns as needed and try to make things use more words and more archaic phrasing.

Professional sportsball players put their bodies under extreme stress on a regular basis, so injuries naturally show up more often.

I was reading the other day (and this is hearsay) that they suspect the reason for the increase in injuries is due to improved shoe technology. Kids/teens grow up in shoes that are extremely bouncy/cushy, which affects the development of their muscles (and bones, to a lesser degree.)

I'm certain they're going to unconstitutionally run his corpse (taxidermied with a robotic skeleton so it can move and a generative AI voicebox trained on his tweet archive so it can spew shit) in 2028, too.

To be mildly fair, if Switch is the only platform you own, you're not going to buy the Steam or Itch versions of the game.
While indie games are rarely not available on PC, I have had that response to some non-indie games before. "I'll buy Final Fantasy XVI when you release the PC version."

His cloaked form is the default male Midlander Hyur, only with every color set as pale as possible. I'm not actually certain it's a placeholder; it might be emphasizing that he doesn't really remember what he's supposed to look like beyond "pale."

If the modern Republican party were able to decree who and who not was *permitted* to have children, how many Hispanic families would be granted a license?

This is cool! And very appropriate flavor.
(I used Warrior of Light [customized proxy with FF14 art instead of Amano's FF1 art] as the commander for my Elidibus deck. Works pretty well well if you build Seat of Sacrifice: The Deck, but it's not quite the right mechanics/flavor.

If you want to be friends with NPC Elidibus shippers, despite it being thoroughly AU material at this point I've liked the idea of Elidibus/Urianger since I played through Heavensward (and wish the writers had done a little bit more with that part of the subplot.)

There's a finite number of canon characters. You're going to be shipmates with SOMEONE.
(To be fair, in the Paksarra Headcanon Universe every player character Warrior of Light has at least one personal timeline [with an exception for multi-WoL timelines] so everyone's journey is canon.)

Main flaws are that the UI is very clunky and the AI has some exploitable flaws, but for a fan project that plays a game that complex *reasonably competently* it's pretty impressive.

There's a program out there called Forge. It's free (fanmade) and has some big flaws, but it's a good way to test out a deck against AI opponents (that is a traditional game AI, not a LLM.)

As for her being able to 'see' so many other things, keep in mind that EVERYTHING in this setting is made of aether and Y'shtola can see/sense aether. She's Geordi LaForge blind.

Oddly enough, Y'shtola being able to see paint/ink is canonically consistent-- if you have Alchemist, check out the descriptions/ingredients of the ink you use to make stuff like ACN/SMN/SCH books and orch rolls.
Ink and paint aren't dissimilar, so paint is probably aetherically conductive too.
