Love love love characters that present themselves as emotionally open social butterflies but the more you see of them the more obvious it is that they’re the most closed off fuckers in the story. Sure, they want to help you with your personal problems and messy emotions, but if you turn that shit back on them, they’ll shut down or deflect every time. Why are you sticking your nose in their business anyway? It’s not like it matters. They’re not a person, they’re just a role being played. They’re the guy who fixes things and saves people. Please ignore the man behind the mask, he’s fine. Everything’s fine.

Overview of some topics when it comes to drawing characters who are burn survivors.
DISCLAIMER. Please keep in mind that this is an introductory overview for drawing some burn scars and has a lot of generalizations in it, so not every “X is Z” statement will be true for Actual People. I'm calling this introductory because I hope to get people to actually do their own research before drawing disabled & visibly different characters rather than just making stuff up. Think of it as a starting point and take it with a grain of salt (especially if you have a very different art style from mine).
Talking about research and learning... don't make your burn survivor characters evil. Burn survivors are normal people and don't deserve to be constantly portrayed in such a way.
edit: apparently tum "queerest place on the internet" blr hates disabled people so much that this post got automatically filtered. cool!
He can't help but stare at the round little fleshy bit that sits where a horn ought to be, sticking out through the dusting of Ayla's red hair.
He looks a little closer.
There's a hole there. There shouldn't be a hole there.
"What it is like to have hole in your head?" he asks.
("Khai, you have holes in your head.")
"It's good for letting music through!" the bard answers cheerily.
Khai gasps, "It goes through?" He leans down to try and see through, but he can't. Just a black hole.
He 'hmmmm's.
"You ever have anything stuck in it?"
"One time I got a bug stuck in there and I still have nightmares about it."
Khai shudders - he wants to ask 'what kind of bug?' but notices the bard's face seems to have paled slightly.
There's a brief silence while they both recover from - for Ayla, the memory - and for Khai, the thought, but Khai can't help but return to investigating the bard's ear.
"What will happen if…" he mutters to himself. Then he blows in it.
With a yelp, the bard launches herself a good ten yalms into the air.
"Oh. I forget she can do this." Khai comments as he watches her ascent.
You know what I think its grossly under-rated in fandom? Second loves.
What it's like to love and lose and then love again. To suffer through either the death of a loved one or the death of a love you used to share. To know that loss, to know that hurt, and to still make yourself vulnerable to someone again. To love scared, to love wounded, to love anyway.
By under rated in fandom I mean so often past loves are either erased completely or downplayed like "oh yeah they weren't really in love.". I think it flattens the character. Humans are capable of so much love. Each relationship is different and you can learn from each one! And yes, there's something brave in learning to love again, something incredible romantic, why pass it by?

FFxiv 30 Day Writing Challenge
SEPTEMBER 1st - 30th, 2024
Welcome to YEAR 8 of our annual FFxiv 30 Day Writing Challenge, folks!
Last year we had 7,935 total entries! Which brings us to a total of 50,656 unique written entries over the last 7 years. That is just incredible! And something that I think that we should be super proud of as a creative fan community.
Whether you're new to the FFxivWrite community or a 7-year writing challenge veteran, if you'd like to give perfectionism in your creative writing process a swift kick in the butt, then this challenge was designed for you!
More info is below the cut~
Here’s the gist:
Runs from September 1st - 30th, 2024. During that timeframe:
Visit sea-wolf-coast-to-coast once a day at 12:00pm (noon) PDT for the prompt of the day. Convert to your timezone accordingly. All prompts will be one word or brief phrase that you can interpret however you please.
You have 24 hours to write something for that prompt.
Submit the link to your entry post via this Google Form:
https://forms.gle/jDWjFKfmeaGnH3PL9
There are no length or skill requirements (short & sweet is fine!).
There will be no 24-hour deadlines for the first week, September 1st - 7th. The deadline will go into effect on September 8th at 11:59am PDT.
Makeup/extra credit days every Sunday.
Every entry posted within its 24-hour deadline will count toward a participation prize raffle at the end.
You can join any time with any prompt #! There’s no need for latecomers to start with prompt #1. Picking up with the most recent prompt is A OK.
If you’re an artist and you would like to volunteer to do a simple black & white illustration as a participation prize at the end of this challenge, you can volunteer here!

Been a while since I posted! Here, have a meme for the Thatcher-Yatsurugi-Fortier family (plus one dwarf from the First) (ft. @redmatches for Natsumi). Thanks @tae-ffxiv for sharing yours!
