A way into The Red

“Really, Khuja. We’re going to dance this dance again, aren’t we.”

VISUAL ATTRACTIVENESS: 💗💗💗💗💗“I mean this hasn’t changed from last time. And if I didn’t give this many previously, well.. just consider that I gave that much in the first place. Just pretend that I gave that to begin with. Please. It’ll be better that way for you.“

FRIENDSHIP LEVEL: 💗💗💗💗💗“I debated this for awhile and I suppose that this is the best answer. While we’ve kind of drifted apart because of your situation, I still think we know each other the best. Or at the very least, in ways that we don’t often think about.”

SEXUAL DESIRE: 💗💗💗💗“I’d give you a higher rating here. But I think you know why I gave you this many. It could be a lot higher if circumstances were... more in our favour.”

ROMANTIC INTENT: 💗💗💗💗“This could be higher, too. But I think you know why it isn’t.”

VISUAL ATTRACTIVENESS:💗💗💗💗“Mmm… I suppose I have to admit that Yun’s attractive. Maybe even moreso if he wasn’t plastered with a grumpy face all the time.”

FRIENDSHIP LEVEL:💗💗💗“I think we trust each other enough. But I’m not really the type of person to give my trust freely. He trusted me enough to do a card reading for him, if that’s any indication.”

SEXUAL DESIRE:💗💗💗“For now. I trust him, but I don’t think I trust him enough for this. Maybe if he worked on it, and I was… free.“

Picture

A picture. A single image reminding you of someone or something you've lost, something you don't want to live without. You can't seem to move on, to accept life has changed, to live again. You're trapped in the picture, in the past. Maybe this was a lost family member or friend, maybe this was a sickness that isn't going away, maybe this was sinking into depression. But you can't help but remember how life was before, how life after will never be the same, and can't help but feel that nothing in the future will be able to fill the hole the past left. Nothing lasts forever... Right?

There is a part of Lance that hasn’t let go of the past. But perhaps he is slowly learning to move on...

Welcome back to another Eorzean Calendar brought to you by @rakuza‘s characters! Took a bit of a small break in posting them because I had wanted to get on track with the current month/moon and I had forgotten to post this in the month of October. (It had been a little crazy busy!) For the Fifth Umbral Moon, I present to you Lance Barrington once again! I asked a few friends to think up of any questions one might have for Lance so here they are!

Q: What is his favourite drink, meal, and place?

His favourite drink is rolanberry juice. (He likes most juices but this is his favourite.) His favourite meal includes anything with some kind of steak. (His favourite steak thus far is auroch.) And his favourite place to go is the area around Hermits’ Hovel in the Outer reaches of La Noscea.

Q: Why did you make him in the first place?

This is not an easy question to answer, but a lot of it is just personal reasons. Lance easily fit one of my other character concepts that I’ve used in the past (hello City of Heroes!) and because of that, I decided to create Lance while keeping his previous incarnation in this game. Yes, Lance was not always a Hyur Midlander.

Q: How big is he underneath those pants?

How the hell does one answer this without incriminating anything bad/shameful? You should be ashamed of yourself for asking this! But let’s just say he has pleased every partner he’s sexual relations with. That should give you an idea of how big he is. :D

Q: What are the reasons why he doesn’t love Khuja? ( @khujatotayuun )

Hey, we’ve gone over this before. While Lance does not approve of Khuja’s life choices, he does not judge him for them. If only Khuja wasn’t so involved... Well, you of all people should know the answer to this! :D

"I didn’t even realize that it’d only take one alcoholic-laid kiss for someone to have a crush on me. But I guess that’s what I get for expecting everything to go a certain way. He’s definitely someone I could call a friend and I know he’s hoping for more. It’s hard with him being so nice and handsome... and he knows the culinary arts. But with his situation and mine just not jiving with one another, I’m afraid friends is where it will stay. I do have to admit though he speaks odd, even for someone in Limsa. Hmm...”

(Mention: @baxter-ffxiv )

“Are you sure you want to know about that? The last person who broke my heart was someone I wish I could strangle. I was lead on, used, and taken advantage of. He was a midlander like myself. And he was a red head. He was someone that didn’t know any of my friends, and likely for the better. But when a man you were very much attached to just suddenly says ‘I never want to see you again’ and ‘I’m leaving for good,’ you can’t help but feel like the lowest form of grime.“

Fatal flaw: Your brutal honesty.

You’re blunt. You’re outspoken. Frankly, you’re kind of a jerk. But you get away with it because you’re usually right and also because you’re indispensable to the major plot. But honestly? It’s going to come back to haunt you. One of these days, you’re going to be TOO honest. You’re going to refuse to lie at a critical juncture, upholding your honorable caustic truthfulness, and you’re going to pay the ultimate price for it.
