Since Angel asked this question as well, I'll answer with Tataru's favorite, which is Spring and Little Ladies' Day!

When she was a little girl, Little Ladies' Day was somewhat of a source of angst for Tataru. The royal tradition of choosing one common girl to be the pretend Sultana for the day had her both hoping against hope that she would be chosen, and also highlighting just how wide the gap was between her and Ul'dah's upper crust.

Now, though, she can live like that whenever she wants! Her business also has several anti-poverty programs that run this time of year, including picking several children to receive the same Little Ladies' Day experience that she never got picked for. The Sultana's advisors are worried Tataru is attempting to usurp the goodwill of the city's common people; but Nanamo likes her, so what can you do?

(Also I hope you find some rest and ease soon)

Thank you!! And thank you so much for your kindness!

Aoki is in his happy place if he is one amongst nature. The forests, the woods, away from civilization and people. He feels safest and most at ease when he doesn’t have to worry about prying eyes or ears. Honestly, his favorite place would probably be at Briar's cabin in the woods since it doesn't get many visitors.

Baatu’s favorite place is a lot of places honestly. Out fishing, in the kitchen, at a party or bar, with friends, with family. The list goes on! He has a lot of hobbies that help him relax, and being such an extrovert- he has the most fun recharge by hanging out with friends or family while doing such hobbies. To him, it doesn't matter much on where he is, as long as he's with good company! (Even if he dislikes Ishgard, he still visits to see his mother and friends...)

(And… a Bonus side inquiry do you think your canon of Erenville has any talents in it?)

I know what this is in reference to Chuu lol. Listen, we've already established he sucks with magic (or that he thinks he does at least), I think he would also not be great at performing slight-of-hand magic either. What would he think if someone else pulled a slight-of-hand magic trick on him???? I'd like to think the miqo'te cat neurons activate, he goes super quiet and laser focuses in on it and:

(Or alternatively what’s your ocs last meal??)

The cheeky answer is "Aymeric's baking", although she'll outlive him.

I'm going to survivalist rules lawyer my way out of this one with "soup", because you can put anything you want into a soup and still maintain a healthy diet.

It would absolutely have to have some sort of cooked meat in it though, Kitali likes roasted meats a lot.

Thanks for the ask @candycryptids

Was there something specific that got her to pick up the brush?

And secondary sillier question- does she have a favorite Treat? (Like a pastry or a drink or some sort of Indulgence to dangle at the end of a stick in place of a carrot..... unless it IS a carrot-)

Hello! Thank you for the happy anniversary wishes and the sweet compliment!! <3

Alaria has always been drawn to the arts, honestly! She has always liked to sketch and doodle to pass the time. When she's reading, she'll sometimes get bored and draw little comics in the margins of the books. (Much to the chagrin of her favorite kitty companions who now know to skim through the books before taking them back to the library so that they're not berated by library staff!) She'd never tried painting before, but when the opportunity presented itself for her to try pictomancy, she jumped at the chance. Yes, maybe she'd been getting a bit disillusioned with being a black mage and this new job showed up at the absolute perfect time, but from the moment she picked up her first brush, she knew that she'd found something special. She connected with the craft immediately; though her brush hand has only begun to steady and her paint strokes are slowly becoming more and more confident, she's enjoying herself immensely!

SECOND SILLIER ANSWER: Rolanberries! Her favorite treat is fresh rolanberries. She loves munching on them; loves the tart flavor and the bit of sourness they deliver. Rolanberry shaved ice is a treat she learned to make almost immediately in her culinarian journey that she just can't get enough of!

If the squad got to go to an ice cream parlor* what kinda flavors and toppings would they get? Cup or cone?

*assuming they got a huge range of flavors and toppings dw about it it’s a hypothetical lmfao. Also poor Shyssa can’t eat right? I’m getting them some Lightning Aether Crystals instead. Being sick all day has me kinda Sillay

THANK!!!!!

Okay uhhhhhhhhhhhhh

well Nabette would get EITHER a frozen lemonade OR a lemon sherbet (depending on the options)

U'nia would get.... Rainbow sherbet (definitely not because i just had some). She likes the lime and orange bits more than the raspberry.

A'vyra would get a regular Vanilla but PILED with candy topings. He's not allowed to get cones anymore on account of her always biting the bottom off and sucking the entire ice-cream down through the hole...

Shyssa CAN eat.... They don't like ice cream... They're picking the chocolate chips/m&ms off A'vyra's

Oketra would get a plain Strawberry cone! Likes to keep it basic

Noressa would get... *spins the wheel* a Caramel and Toffee swirl. In one of those sugar cones that's way too sweet!

SUPRISE BONUS!

eeeeeheheheeeheheehe thank you 😊😊😊 no worries about how long it's been!

as for how it's going,

(Shadowbringers spoilers)

That's a great question, thank you for asking! I think it's something Ariane would probably have complicated feelings about, honestly. Because a part of her would love to have a house in Mor Dhona, on Lake Silvertear, near where she grew up... except the Mor Dhona of today is not the Mor Dhona of her childhood, and the present landscape is just a painful reminder that she can never have that home back.

For the most part, she's happy in the Lavender Beds, and of the existing housing options, it's the right one for her. That said, if there was a housing district in the First, I would probably bid there! Crystarium housing district? Yes please!
