I have this horrible need to have to explain why my character would be somewhere. I actively shoot myself in the foot here and there because I want to RP with someone, but they're over "there" and my character is over "here" and I somehow get it into my head that I can't have it happen because there's no IC reason for my character to be over there.
There is absolutely nothing "horrible" about this, or you are calling me horrible for doing this as well. I frankly wouldn't even consider it a confession...
"Horrible need" is a figure of speech used to describe a desire that one has that we perceive others might see as unnecessary or irrational.
I have had others give me a similar sentiment (Aetheryte travel etc). This is true for Kage who is actually able to do so (he has the gil for the fees but most especially he has the aether to do so) but in the current moment he's going to be in the Ishgardian areas. Someone had casually mentioned that there was nothing to stop me from having Kage travel to and from Ishgard to the Grindstone every week, but per the character he doesn't feel it's safe to do so. In other times that was easy but currently his mindset is 'can't go out too far away'.
It's just simply a matter of figuring out even the tiniest of hooks. Sure a character might hate x-city-state. But perhaps they had to track someone down there or perhaps a story arc forces them to, the story repercussions and character development is delightful.
In fact, someone I know plays a character that absolutely abhors Ishgard. Kage tried to get him there through any means (some much more beneficial to Kage than the other and some were to perhaps help dive into the character). Instead of what I imagined, the character is there and it's sorta the usual time-to-be-mean-to-Kage way. >.>
