Oh god, I have kiiind of been sitting on a super devout knightly badass of a woman, but she's kind of a lowbie at the moment. u___u Maybe when I can get her in believable gear, I'll brave a trek out that way for some RP! *U* ... just have to confine the poor woman to the safety of sanctuaries... lol;

Spriggy found quite the shiny rock there! I had some spare black fabric, and wanted to see what I could do! This little guy is about 12″ tall and made with an assortment of ultracuddle (for the body) and fleece (for the rest). I might try to make more, maybe even do custom rocks if anybody would want that for their spriggan? Seriously, who wouldn’t want a creepy little dust bunny in their home? Spriggan is from Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn Made for Fan Purposes only.

Omg, this sounds super cute! I'd love to participate! ...Just a matter of deciding which of my nerds to throw at this...! *U*

I have a little arsenal of characters I'd love to throw at you sometime and I'd love for them all to be on the road! I'll PM you sometime unless you get to me first!

I think I'm going to miss seeing him today. I slept so long, the day was well into its course. The nurses are so certain they will get him on his feet soon enough. He doesn't know where I live--he'll probably just return to wherever he was. [blot] I spoke with him last night-- Lainse. Brave enough to go over Link Pearl! Sarcasm- to note later if you decide to read this, Novi. Well, not that I knew where he was, but -- he came to speak with me in person, seemed better, and that's all well. I'm sure it'll take time for him to fully heal from that, and more now. Some sod of a drunkard thought it wise to snatch me up--[blot] it was frightening but -- I was so mad! I should have known better-- I should have told Lainse not to-- [blot] I don't know. Terrible as that is to say to give someone money, that is just begging for trouble in Ul'Dah. I'm not hurt at all--- well, there was the headache after Lainse-- [blot] Lainse-- tried to incinerate the man when he got me free. He took himself in the blast too. It was a phenomenal spell, but at a terrible price. The man ended up getting away... I'm really worried, yet here writing it all down in a book. That's helpful, right? [blot] Sarcasm, again. I managed to heal him somewhat though-- It was only a little taxing-- the mentors said that would only happen if something was going wrong. [blot] I didn't and don't really care still. I hope it alleviated some, but I know there are people that are better. Time to see if food and drink will help this nausea.

[blot] I don't really know what to say, why I'm writing. I don't know what to talk about and it's probably evident there's a something if anyone saw me. After some [blot] alright talk in the Quicksand, I managed a trip back to Gridania for lessons again. They're taking it slow with me for now because of the headaches. They've been really reserved after my first mistake out in the Shroud. I mean, when I told them about it anyway. I guess I probably should have said something when Eiji found me the one time. [blot] Anyroad-.. [blot] I got to see Lainse tonight! He's [blot]not doing too well, and I'm sure I'm contributing to that. I said so! He says no. I can't really believe him but what are you going to do about that, right? Push someone enough, it's going to make them mad. Trust, I guess. He needed me last night. He took me to the graves of his fallen friends. It was hard to watch him cope-- [blot] we talked about it and I don't know if anything I said was heard. [blot] I haven't had that sort of loss really [blot] what would my words do? That's-- okay. I'm not upset by it,just hope he can find the words and help he needs if any. I might try to visit or wri-- [blot] Right. Maybe activate that link pearl and see if he wants to talk. I made sure he got somewhere safe for the night -- [blot] and I couldn't stay. If it's been on my mind, and probably will later, I can imagine he's going through much worse. Tomorrow.

Oh man, someone else on MST! O: Dodomu sounds like a cute, and I totally didn't try to scope you out yesterday in the Quicksand... I failed terribly. If you'd like to add a friend to the lala-list, I'd love to try rping with you! Novi doesn't hang around the Quicksand much but often around and probably getting into things she shouldn't. She will probably be all the nosy with questions if she finds out Dodomu is not from the city.

No worries, I'm totally chill with catapulting the babies at every opportunity I can! mwahaha-- Anyway, sure! If Floria would be able to handle the energetic spunk of an inquisitive lalafell, lets plan something! If you're down for something a little more chill and calm though, Pyerha's your girl. She would totally just enjoy chilling and talking with people, whatever they may be doing~~ And man, what a coincidence! O: I seriously just made up the name on the spot when I panicked in getting a slot on Balmung.. LOL M-Maybe related sires? It would be reaally interesting to see these two interact! Aahh maybe someday Pyerha will make her way out to Limsa, I'd really like to get her out of hermit mode and bouncing around! I wonder if the two would be good for each other in some way or another in character growth! O: Ahaha and ohgod, here Nonovi's met Xavarian so it is an absolute YES that I'd love to try and throw Novi at Avis and learn more about conjury... and probably poke some light-hearted jabs at poor, poor Xavarian... Definitely!! Vetiver's wiki was a fun read! Lets plan something sometime soon! c:

Alliterations!! This should be good! So, I hopped into the wonderful world of Final Fantasy XIV ARR back in February. I still don't have anyone to level 50, but enjoying the story in the game and especially RP I've had so far! Seriously, the atmosphere has been such a breath of fresh air and I can't get enough! There are a couple of girls I rp at the moment, my main being Nonovi Novi, and the other-- Pyerha Kynlascha. I'm looking for more opportunities for the pair of them! The Ambitious Adventurer Nonovi Novi is a spunky little lalafell that hails from Ul'dah. After years of being confined within the grand city walls, she has a yearning to leave them, especially so after the Calamity. Prior, she lived mostly alone, occasionally being seen with heavily garbed "caretakers", as she'd call them. Any denizen that knew her would have noted the lalafell went missing after the disaster and only recently 'returned' to the city a couple of cycles (years) ago. A meticulous design of sorts is tattooed on her forehead anymore, though typically and well hidden by brilliant red bangs. People now see her with a different sort of guardian, a soft-spoken hyur named Eiji. The poor man has to deal with her constant engagement of people and activities. She's even dragged him as far as Gridania now to meet folks in Free Companies and hang out while she takes on conjury. Sometimes the lalafell will sneak out to meet a fellow of her kind, easily mistakable for a twin if not for his white streaked hair and blue eyes. Perhaps Novi is behaving and letting Eiji knows where she goes to save the stress! What will the new day bring for them next? If you want to contact either Wildcard or me for RP since these goobers are typically around each other, please feel free! Potential Hooks! Fellow Conjury student? Why do you even put up with this obnoxious and confident lalafell? Or maybe she's totally cool! (except she's not, don't pet that ego!) Conjury Mentor milling around the main guild hall? Just who is this little lalafell? What's with that peculiar Aether flow...? So you're taking a stroll through Ul'dah, you see a poor, distraught dark-haired man likely looking for something... Maybe you see a redhaired lalafell getting into something too big for her britches? Dare you try to help one or the other? Are you a well-traversed adventurer? Novi wants to know everything. Word on the street says the little lalafell makes some really good tea blends. The Somber Survivor Pyehra Kynlascha hails from a small tribe of Keepers that resided in the Shroud. Though, the miqo'te is always found alone if she's not already making herself present to travelers of the Twelveswood. With hair of gold and eyes to match, Pyehra carries herself rather stiff and cautious, her voice soft with the occasional sing-song to her tone if she enjoys someone enough. Not much is known of her tribe, nor will she speak of it if it can be helped. Rumor has it that the miqo'te has been granted a place to stay in Gridania, but very rarely does she venture there. If she's found, it's typically within the Twelveswood, and it's her lyre is heard before she is seen. I really would like to get her out of the Shroud and in the world again, but she currently feels obligated to stay there. Potential Hooks [align=justify] What is that gentle song you hear near dusk? Do you follow...? Bumbling around through the woods? Someone's bound to show up just in time to loose some arrows in your attacker! That peculiar miqo'te carries herself more cautiously than your typical xenophobic Gridanian. What's up with that? Surely it looks suspicious... Is that Keeper taking a snooze out in the sun? I'm looking for some fun, engaging character interaction and development for these two. I really love story development for characters, running plots, and seeing how they grow with others. It's so rewarding for rp! Novi is spoken for at the moment, but I do not mind romance for characters, as long as its developed that way! It's not a priority for me as I'd love to see what sort of rp and story can come from Eorzea instead. I'm not against it though! If either of these two (plus an Eiji!) interest you for RP, please feel to drop me a line here or via PM if you want to plan anything! I'd really love to see more RP ingame and see what sort of adventures come of them~ Thanks for taking the time to read! I look forward to hearing from you! *U*[/align]

(March 18th, 2015) I have nothing else to do at the moment. Finally, that headache's gone and I can think, but it's a hot day today. When isn't it? Conjury lessons went well for the most part. There was a point that I got to take a break from my lessons, so [blot] I thought perhaps I could find an escort scout to take me to the Lavender Beds to possibly visit people-- maybe hear about Lainse. Time works at a crawl in boredom, but with a destination, it spared me no mercy! [blot] I wasn't going to make it, so I mingled in Bent Branch, "attempting" to skip rocks. I've only caused for big splashes at the moment. I still need to ask-- but anyway, Lainse was there too, in Bent Branch, it was such a nice surprise, and I was so happy to see him too! We caught up, quite a bit, got those things out in the open and-- [blot] I realize just how bad I am at this. I only mean well with what I say, but it came out so... [blot] bad. I didn't really have time to clarify, only to hope that he understands what I mean.. and we can go from there! It turns out his expedition was cancelled... I missed nothing, but I still want to prepare for a next time! I guess he wasn't informed about mine and Eiji's leaving from Harbingers. That's alright, I'm glad I got to say it myself anyway, and I worried over nothing! That caused for a pretty big distraction when I got back to my lessons. Those mentoring us could sense it, well, not that-- that would be uncomfortable if it could be specific! Anyway, they asked that I go meditate with nature for the time being, and "come back when my head has cleared". Who knows how long that would take, right? I could use the excuse to get out though. I thought maybe Lainse would still be around, but he wasn't. Logical that talking it out more would clear my head, right? They wouldn't have needed to know! So, walking along the river was the next best thing. There were some sprites on the water-- I thought maybe I could practice-- not with spells, but try to feel something with meditation? Because, honestly, doing that with the incense in the actual guild hall wasn't doing anything for me besides building my stamina to hold in sneezes. [blot] I know that's terrible to say, but-- anyway. It was a peaceful experience, for as long as it lasted. [blot] I can't remember what I felt anymore, but I do know it was interrupted. There was this giant water-skater of a creature that I completely missedin my wandering that made itself a little too close. I panicked-- I--[blot] hit it with water? Not splashing, that' s stupid-- but I actually willedsome conjury in the water? I pushed the creature away from me and ran-- oh the headache that came after. I could barely see. I don't know if it's something to be concernedabout. People talk about aether sickness,just something to get used to. [blot] Something I think I'd be used to by now. [blot] Anyway, just as luck would have it, guess who had to come find me like that out in the woods? I felt awful. I feel like a big enough jerk doing what I did with my sneaking out before-- I'm trying not to do this anymore. The guy doesn't deserve it. He seemed okay with it though, well, not the situation, but... proud I managed to defend myself? -- Not that I did, really, kind of. Sort of. I thought it was later than it was when we did get back to the Aetherite plaza-- Oh, and let me say, getting back was a not-so-pretty sight... But- anyway, I thought I had been dumb enough to be wandering the woods way too close to the time I was supposed to go home with Eiji but-- the bells were off. Good timing as always with Eiji, I guess! I'm lucky for that. I'm taking it easy for now. [blot] I'm finding some odd jobs around the city because I'm tired of sitting around with my craft if I'm not out getting myself sick with excessive travel and weird situations!! [blot] I could have sworn I was going to convince someone to give me a chocobo today, but it didn't happen. I mean, I'm not surprised. I found out that night too that I'm all Eiji has out here, apparently. Yeah-- he was around while I was taking care of birds. He said he was just enjoying the quiet night, but I'm curious just how long he was sitting there, across the street. Enjoying the quiet night. InUl'dah. Busiest city ever. Yes, alright,Eiji. This obligatory guardianship --- if I can call it that? I'll make it work, so we can be friends, and not some strange rendition of Guard-to-Sultana-Commonfolk Edition! It's going to happen!

(March 13th, 2015) [Like past entries, this one is written with an unsteady and fatigued hand] Not much has changed from the last entry. I never did talkto Lainse about Mimiru-- not really. I'ma little stuck in my confusion. He speaks so highly of me-- and I even got to see that finished piece from our date! It was beautiful-- and with more detail in additional wings to make me into an illustrated angel. It was very sweet. Again, I-- it is so hard to tell if this is some enamored feeling or if there is something genuine. When I can ask, I think I'll have some peace on it. This is so difficult. It seems the more I think about it, the harder it is to reach him. I-- still have his linkpearl, I turned everything else in. -- [blot] I'm not going to be with the Harbingers afterall-- for now! [blot] My handwriting is so bad, am I even going to be able to read this later? [blot] The traveling has been taxing-- I don't understand. First it's the headaches, passing out if I'm not careful. I'm so glad that hasn't happened yet-- that would be so embarrassing.. [blot] I'm not sure how I'll tell Lainse about this either-- leaving. He seemed so excited about me being there, that we may venture the world together through this company. I wonder what he'll do-- if he'll be disappointed. [blot] Not that I should care? [blot] I mean, I'd be sad if we couldn't see each other-- but-- I didn't think this would bother me? I'm getting sick from travel, why would anyone [blot] be disappointed.. I mean, I would imagine he knows by now.[blot] If news travels fast? Their company was rather large in numbers.. [blot] I do feel guilty that I'm holding Eiji back with that too-- I think he might have done some good to meet people there, get out of Ul'dah too. He doesn't seem to like it very much already. Oh! I found out that he actually has a friend in the Shroud? We mingled at the tavern together recently-- it was ... awkward! Not for us-- ..[blot] one of the members mistook Taj for a waitress and spoke so little of her when Taq was away-- well, not little per se but-- as if she was primitive? I didn't know what to say. I guess I don't know Taq well enough to defend, and her fiance Brannon said little of it! I'm sure he would know! I was hoping to-- but I didn't get to see Lainse that night either. He had that expedition-- he may be doing that right now as I write. I hope he's doing alright,anyway. Maybe I'll try a letter, I'd hate to disturb while he's working. Can't imagine how pleasant that is to have someone yammering in your ear while you're trying to take down some feral beast! I might have missed him now-- but I'm making a goal, anyway.If he still wants to talk with me, and see the world together-- I'm still going to make a goal to be able to defend myself-- or be more helpful in a way when the next opportunity comes! I'm leaving for Gridania soon, to learn theways of Conjury if someone is willing!

(March 7th, 2015) I messed up so badly. [blot] ------ I had other things to write, but I don't feel like it anymore. Lainse has another worry in Eiji, and Eiji-- [blot] Well, I messed up. I'm making it up to him soon! Lainse too. It's all getting strangely suspicious too. Mimiru asked how I felt about Lainse recently, if I was happy. Am I right on this afterall? If something happened between them, and they're really not over it...[blot] I need to talk to him about it. This isn't healthy if I'm right!

(March 5th, 2015) [The handwriting is loose, messier than the last] We went on a date yesterday, a very long, and very exciting date! Yes, I'm-- [blot] going to call it that, I mean, we were both rather blatant about it anyway-- but it still ended... on an awkward note. [blot] This seems to be a trend. I didn't actually get to voice my concerns, maybe another day. [blot] The day was nice though, yesterday, and I was feeling better. I made a trip to see Lainse, got all dressed up and stuff, and it turns out he did too! He [blot] had a corsage done for me-- and we decided that we would go enjoy the festival just then. Lainse made it even better-- they celebrate the festivities in the major cities too! It was so beautiful in Gridania! The peach blossoms seemed so natural, and Lainse took me toa pretty waterfall just out of the way to the Aetherite Plaza. I seriously could have probably stayed there the whole night and talked with him-- if he wanted to anyway. I didn't want to leave. [blot] He had so many stories to tell too-- It seems the Harbingers have quite the reputation out here, and held many events and gatherings in the city. There was apparently a dating auction once, and Lainse was bid off pretty high. It was funny to listen to. Oh, I'll need to ask him to show me how to skip rocks someday. I'm so curious. Maybe he can show me and not have to do it himself if he doesn't like it! After Gridania, he took me to a restaurant in Limsa Lominsa-- the Bismark, I think? I tried one of his favorite dishes there, and it was delicious. The view was amazing there too, we were sitting right over the harbor, and I couldn't keep my eyes off the ships and everything! Sand blisters, if I had any way to capture all the moments. It was great! Last, Lainse took me to a rather strange place.... it seemed like a resort, but with many, many ruins around. I guess the damaged structures are a result of [blot] what happened before. Lainse was a part of that as well, and branded as such. [blot] He told me about his friends, people he used to work with, and I realized a little too late that ... there are likely a lot of them he'll never see again. I know too well. [blot] Anyway. It was a nice day for the most part. Again, if I had a way to commit more tomemory than just writing it down. Lainse has a gift to draw-- he even drew me again! I can't wait to see how it turns out. I'll probably see in the next few days or so! We came back to the mansion after our little trip, to see more people and whatnot. I would have preferred just to stay out with Lainse-- but I think I was making him uncomfortable. There was a very rude Miqo'te when we arrived, and did I want to give him a piece of my mind! I let it be though. [blot] So, not only is Lainse talented in sketching, but he plays music really well too? [blot] Really well--. And sings! [blot]Today [blot] it was a good day! I'm really grateful for Lainse taking me where he did-- it was worth having to -- stay here for Twelve know how long. [blot] He sang how much he enjoyed my company-- my features, how-- [blot] pretty I am? I don't [blot] know what to think about that. It's flattering-- of course, and, it makes me happy to be around Lainse, to share these moments with him but--.[blot] Is this some sort of infatuation? He shared so much with me, trusted me, and-- I haven't said much for myself at all. [blot] We're going to give this thing a try! I mean, I enjoy his company and want to share more memories with him, but -- I still feel like there's so much to Know. Maybe I've just gotten so used to the monotony I see here at home-- the change is so different. I don't doubt I made him feel uncomfortable yet again-.[blot] He worries about lose me so quickly and often-- and it confuses me. I'm not sure what he sees just yet that's worth that sort of worry, but we'll get to know each other better in time, and maybe I'll understand. I'm happy that he seems to be happy save for that.

(March 4th, 2015) [The hand-writing is shaky, as if the writer is suffering from some fatigue] Not sure how long I'll be able to keep this up. I don't understand. You'd think that with more practice, then things would come with ease? [blot] Anyway... I have been making my way to the estate more. I told Eiji, and I think he is considering coming with me sometime. I've mostly been visiting with Lainse when I do go to the estate. [blot] He-- suffered venom from a bite while picking flowers for me recently. The poor man-- it wasn't necessary but the flowers were beautiful all the same! I have some hanging in my window now to dry. He wished to give them to me for Little Ladies day-- it was.. so thoughtful! [blot] I had even given him a little kiss on the cheek as thanks-- I hope that wasn't offensive or invasive of his personal space. Lainse doesn't seem like the type to say so either way. Regardless, he's recovering well enough too. I helped Mimiru-- only a little-- to make sure Lainse was properly taken care of when we found out about his bite. I stayed with him sometime after then, but I couldn't be there all night. I'm glad he slept soundly. [blot] I made him some tea-- since he's always wanted to share tea with me in my visits. I don't know that he's had any yet. That's okay! I'm sure he'll like it anyway. I visited a different part of the Shroud to gather the flowers for the ingredients. It smelled nice! I met a miqo'te out there who was tending to a chocobo stable-- and rather forward about my helping him. It made for interesting conversation anyway...! He was also... very complimentary! I guess that's a nice quality to have as a mercenary--as that is what he is. I can't remember the name though, I wonder if he'll remember a face. Not important anyway-- I'm really excited about this festival! Lainse and I talked about going together, and I'd really like that...! I've had some strange things going on tied to him anyway, and [blot] I don't want that being in the way. Maybe I'll find a good time then to talk about it..?

(Feb 27th 2015) I'll have to get something figured out soon. The scouts watching the roads in the Shroud are sort of cranky, and coin can only do so much for an escort. [blot] I haven't had it in me to ask Eiji to take me either. Seems odd to, I mean, I know he wouldn't mind! ... Actually, I can't tell if he would or not. Maybe I'll just pester him about this anyway, and see if maybe he wants to give this Harbinger business a try too. I think he could use more friends. I don't even know if he has any. I should ask. The estate certainly has many potential candidates. I met many of them! ... Well, saw a lot of them, only talked to a handful of them. There was a miqo'te named Technic? -- Ah, well, who am I to ask about cultural reference. There was a very friendly lalafell working the bar, his name is Al! I'm finding myself more and more in the company of those who know me before I know them. Lainse has been speaking much of me. [blot] Ah.-- Some people fought in the bar-- yeah they have a little tavern in the basement of their building. Pretty impressive! [blot] I had a chance to meet the head of the branch I'm interested in! Her name's --[blot] Mimiru. Our conversation was brief, and she already accepted me into her fold. I'm not sure how to feel about that, [blot] but I'm going to try and work my way up through it anyway. [blot] It-- bothered Lainse when he found out. He was rather vague and polite when he spoke of Mimiru-- when I found him anyway. He worried that we couldn't be friends anymore if I was to be speaking with Mimiru-- how odd is that! Absolutely silly and I would never do that. Well, I mean, let the opinion of someone else's way my own. Lainse has been nothing but kind, and-- to note! He is an excellent artist! I saw some of his sketches-- lands, people, and he even drew me! -- I don't think I ever did ask if it was from memory, that would be ---- [blot] impressive!

(Feb 25 2015) Coincidence is funny like this. [blot] I was looking into perhaps joining a company to make better use of this opportunity given by Lainse. As it turns out, he is also in the company I have chosen! They are called the Harbingers of Dawn. [blot] I'm not adept in much, but it seemed interesting anyway. I submitted an application of interest in these last few days, and had the pleasure of running into Lainse again, as well as his employer. They invited me to the estate--- outside of the city-- near Gridania to be precise! Oh, it was so beautiful there! The trees! The smells! The flowers and life! It was so nice! I was near tempted to find some place to stay for the night just to remain there-- but-- I can't do that. It was amazing though! I guess Lainse is a bit new too, he had some trouble finding the place when he was leading me. The poor man, having to deal with my distractions. I think I could have given up seeing the estate for just that evening if I could have a look around and enjoy the view. I did pick some lavender though, because I'd like to work out some sort of a thank you letter to Lainse for everything so far. He's been so incredibly nice!-- It's just so very different than whatI'm used to. [blot] Just what shifted in fate to have things going alright now? Anyway, I'm going to see about maybe going again soon to perhaps visit other members of the company. We ventured in rather late and only had the opportunity to meet a miqo'te lady in our short visit! Any excuse for me to get out of here will be taken!

This.. [blot] this was a good night! I spent far too long reading, the information is just thought soup--. I went for a walk -- Eiji seems to always be in the right place at the right time whenever I do that so-- I thought he'd show up eventually. I went people-watching at the Quicksand-- [blot] I think I counted a few dozen and repeats coming and going-- and-- someone noticed. [blot] His name is Lainseworth, Lainse for short, and he was concerned for my boredom. Odd, right..? It was amusing. [blot] We spoke some, he's quite the gentleman! I [blot] kind of hope I get to see him around more! -- I mean, I'll have to keep this to myself, but he gave me quite a bit of coin from his last venture (he is a scout!). I mean-- I dream to leave Ul'dah on my own terms without having to sneak of course but-- this was so sudden, and I'm grateful for it. Perhaps this is sort of abrupt motivator I need to actually leave. But what do I say? How do I ask Eiji to maybe come with me if he's going to be doing that still? He'd probably find it suspicious-- all of this. I mean, I am stir-crazy, maybe that's enough of a reason. I'll-- think about it, this is just... too much. Of course, I want to get to know Lainse better if I do see him again-- I mean, he gave me a linkpearl, that's enough of an indicator he wants to, right? Not just dumping some dirty money on me for a gang to trace to me, right? [blot] No that's-- too amusing to consider a possibility! He was very nice, and I look forward to seeing him again. He lives here, he should be easy enough to stumble across again! (feb 21 2015)

So, [blot] I got home safe. Later than I intended-- [blot] fortunately there-- wasn't anyone to ask.[blot] I got sick. [blot] I mean, I found the aetheryte home, but--I just couldn't shake a feeling that it [blot] was causing it, and lo and behold! Here I am,-- okay for now. I ran into mister shady-bookseller-in-black while I was still in La Noscea. [blot] He's practicing conjury, I guess, without any proper tutor. I thought that was strange, considering how unstable his aether presence seemed to be-- and I was right on that. He knows it too, but still trying"for the sake of knowledge" which is all-- good and what not, but-- well, I guess he'd know to what end. [blot] I got snippy with him, but now that I'm looking back, I don't really know why. [blot] I've never been in that sort of situation before-- what right do I have to tell him how to do what he wants? [blot] No hard feelings though.We talked a bit more. It was a nice view where we sat. There are many places to climb, and so many mountains! I would love to scale one someday. I wonder what could be found! I can't [blot] push that for a while though-- I'm lucky enough as it is that nobody noticed-- or [blot] is speaking up -- or really around. [blot] [blot] Good timing, I guess. (Feb-12-2015)

[blot] So, I'm here! I did it! [blot] Sort of. I didn't recall where I ended up... [blot]that is how it works with attuning, right? [blot]I mean, to know where you're going-- I just do not remember. The Moraby Drydocks though, are what the locals called it. I was trying for Limsa Lim-Lominsa! Regardless, some friendly folk (let me tell you, didn't seem like there were many!) had me on my way again. They had a chocobo porter that could get me to the city. [blot] It was a spectacular view on the way there, the air was so fresh! The wind isn't harsh! It carries the sea with it, and I can hear it everywhere! -- The sea, I mean. It really is spectacular, and I know I intended to return home today, but that's not happening. Let me tell you, those chocobo do notstop for anything, I mean, anything!! I wanted to stop and look at some flowers along the way, and [blot] ended up falling off. What else was I going to do, right? Well, I got my flowers, and the sight-seeing went well into the night. Incredibly dark outside, and raining! I guess I picked a bad time to go falling off a chocobo, but! I met a shady man cloaked in black with a chocobo to match (really though, I just could not see the thing, it had to be something other than yellow). That's optimistic, right? He's nice though, tall, and odd. Something about his aether presence was really strange though. [blot] Anyway, he got me to Limsa Lominsa, and didn't stay long-- seemed really edgy in the city. Can't say that I'll miss him-- I mean, interesting! But-- sand-blisters,of all the people to meet, I know who wouldn't be pleased with that! [blot] So, here I am! In an Inn! It smells! The bed is comfy though, the quilt is nice and big, I don't think I'll actually be sleeping in the bed though, on top! Rolled up in a blanket! Mhm, that sounds fun. There's a window too! I can look out-- [blot] and see some light,and a lighthouse! It's too bad I couldn't come on a clearer day.. [blot] what with the moon, I could probably see the sea! Oh well, maybe there'll be another time. (Feb 5th, 2015)

I'm going to do this. I'm going to see about this old registry and leave the city. It should be easy enough to return, right? I can leave in themorning, return even before the night claims the sky. It's going to be exciting. I'm going to make it so! They don't need to know. No one does. Only me. You've got this in the bag, Novi! (Feb 3rd, 2015)

As per usual with everything Lalafellin, the book in question is smaller than a standard novel. Its cover is a plain brown that has seen better days. Corners are worn, and some pages within are dog-eared or slightly off from the rest. One leather flap lies attached to the book, as a way to fasten it shut. Should anyone try to do just that, they'll find it takes a certain hand to get it to stay clasped shut. This journal has been through much. Opening it will reveal the first page to be covered in growing doodles of various creatures found in Eorzea. The detail is simple and crude, if many could be made out as actual creatures at all. The following pages recall days in only the past couple of years of Nonovi's life in Ul'dah, and those details are sparse. Now, the entries take a more exciting turn...

A great song for Nonovi, I can't speak for Lainse. lol kC-S4gh4Wt0

Help, I've fallen into cute rp and I can't get up. Poor Lainse got bit by a snake picking all these pretty flowers for Nonovi! After getting patched up and having some recovery, he finally did get to give them to her for Little Ladies Day! Too bad that fever from the other day spiked again after he got a little thankyou smooch! I got to see all the decorations and stuff in Ul'dah today. It's super cute!! I only have the bridesmaid dress for fancies at the moment, but I'd love to see how it looks with the Peach Blossom accessories! Those are so cute! I can't wait to unlock the quest for the necklace! *U* I-I'll do more than sketchysketches one of these days.... Yay moar lala art!

Thank youuu! Thank you so much! I tried with what I had. It is surprisingly difficult to find references for some things! haha, thank you again!

I really need to play more, because it's fun when I do! ;O; I've also been reminded that I can't actually add anyone unless we're both online. DERP. I will get the hang of this someday /headdesk Anyway, last I was on, Nonovi had the pleasure of meeting a gentleman of a lala named Lainseworth Ravencraft! I appreciated his patience for her enthusiasm and inquiries. He was very nice and generous to help her on her way! OOCly, I HAD to do something to make up for that generosity too! I did not realize that hat had such a long tip until I was just about near done with this. LOL I thought it stopped at the blue band like a snazzy little... fancy hat! This is fine too though, haha. I really try hard not to do the hands-behind-the-back pose like..ever but given what I saw of his personality, it just...fit! [align=center][/align] Aaand a bonus doodle, because what is personal space, Nonovi!! Lainse was a good sport anyway. lol [align=center][/align]
