I run an endgame FC myself (That is also extremely plot heavy Roleplay wise so I'm always having to play GM) and I get it can be hard to make a lot of connections with how much little time you have, I do see you running around when I am so maybe we're on the same schedule which will make this easier ;o.
Many moons ago me and you played with the idea of Merri meeting Loki so she could get to work on her Magitek leg (Which still isn't a thing *sigh* SO MANY PLOTS) because Merri is big into that but you never really got back with me ^^;. If that would be a plot you'd be interested in (I can even have you meet some of our engineers in the Night Blades, for more connections) let me know. I can set something up.
