To diversify the topic a bit, how do people interpret the Lightning Strikes event? I see a few people RP in the Lightning and Snow outfits, which don't really fit in the Eorzean aesthetic framework. My character goes "That's a funny outfit, is it Garlean?", but I wonder what else it can be interpreted as?
I honestly treat it as Canon, because it's such a small thing, and it will gone soon. "I got this skirt from a world hopping, grumpy, pink haired lady" isn't too much more crazy sounding than, "I ventured into the eye of a vortex and slew a primal god of wind to make this sweet ass couch". FFXIV is kind off a silly world, I think the people in it have to learn to accept a lot of crazy things.
