You invite a friend over to your house for the afternoon. Describe what your friend would see upon entering your home.
They'd enter to see a old tattered couch sitting in front of a fireplace with a few pillows on it, a small end table with several scattered parchments and maps on it and empty ale mugs. On the floor behind the couch would be a thick comfy throw rug, no bed.
During the casual small-talk that ensues, your friend asks you if you have read any good books lately. How do you respond?
"Well it just so happens I picked up this amazing book, it talks about the latest and greatest bards, specifically the female ones." * wink wink* "Oh um, also I was given this very interesting map... looks like it could lead to something interesting."
Your friend eventually leaves, and you're still bored. Restless, you leave the house and set out for a walk. Describe the neighborhood you live in.
The area is a bit run down, with shack like homes thrown together all around and children making due playing with whatever they could find laying around. tattered clothes hanging on lines to dry and the "ladies of the night" standing on corners and in alleyways looking to earn their keep.
Oh no! An orphan is in trouble! Down the street from where you stand, a small street urchin is being bullied by three larger youths. What do you do about it?
Watch for a moment to see just how far the youth's take it before finally intervening, grabbing up the three youths by their collars or hair and tossing them on their rears. Then scolding the urchin for not being able to protect himself/herself and making me waste my time helping them.
Adventure time! The next day, still restless, you decide that what you need is a good change of pace. How do you pack for your four-day road trip to Ishgard?
Kima would pack his skinning knife, cold weather gear/rain gear (depending on the weather) a few gil just in case and flint to start a fire.
Along your journey, you spot some bandits waiting at a bridge across a wide but slow moving river up ahead of you. They haven't seen you yet. You need to cross the bridge to get to where you're going. How do you handle the situation?
Since they are bandits I would get the jump on them first, taking out as many as possible by surprise and knocking the rest into the river then running across the bridge to get to safety.
You have just arrived for the first time in a new big city. Where do you go first?
The shadiest, most vulgar tavern the city has. That's where you'd find any good information on who to avoid and where to go in the city, and you're more likely to find more easy going women there.
For being the 1,000th tourist to the city, you have been given a 6,000 gil voucher to spend as you like at the Ishgard Department Store (think FFXIV version of Macy's). What do you spend it on?
A new tunic and then spend the rest on drinks in the local tavern.
All of that shopping has made you deliriously hungry. What sort of food establishment do you seek out for lunch?
Anyplace that serves fish but isn't too uppity, a place which is kinda dirty but down to earth.
Five months later and safely back at home, you realize the Winter Festival is approaching! What sort of present do you pick out for your mother (or nearest living relative, or closest friend)?
He'd get Laylei some boots with very tall heels to make fun of her being a Lalafell as a gag gift and give her something she could use in her alchemy as a real gift.
