It wouldn't be overly difficult to explain a primal pony, without having defeated the primal IC. It doesn't HAVE to be that it's a primal offering at all. Maybe it's a form warped ifrit/titan/garuda egi, maybe they're a dirty heretic who was gifted an icy hornless unicorn? I've seen people RP far worse lorebends and have the RP community at large nod and approve.
The birds, hmm. Bismarck bird gifted by the vanu vanu if you do beast quest stuff? Sephirot bird came out of a big allagan vending machine for having beat the 'simulation'? LOL I don't know. The other birds I have difficulty coming up with an excuse for. Honestly it doesn't hurt anyone if you want to RP your shiny mount. If it does hurt them, uh, well. I don't know what to tell them.
If people hate the in game fantasia so much and would rather RP their soul getting sucked out and put in another body.(??? there is one instance of this I know of, KIND OF.. the miqo'te in Mor Dhona? MAYBE? Is there some BLM lore on this stuff? Maybe?) RPing a primal horse/bird being obtained without killing a primal or being something besides what they are shouldn't be so frowned upon or hard to do. Just do whatever you have the most fun doing.
Arvid himself hasn't even got a chocobo anymore since he ruined his life making stupid decisions. He only has his two feet. As for minions.. He has a doman bird toy and someone's stupid Paissa likes him. Filthy rancid monkey. At one point he had a shalloweye, to get over his nervousness of people staring at him and his hate for hair. It didn't work out. He's not really sure where the thing went either. VOIDSENT MYSTERIES.
