Been considering changing the name away from my gamer tag to something more fitting of Lalli and FFXIV. So! Here we go!

n3rd-qu33n-ffxiv is now zees-aetherial-tea!

Tea is serious business.

Much like Mayqo'te, WoL + G'raha Week has been a blast! I wish it had come at a time I was less busy with work stuff. I feel like I could have done a lot more, but I'm still happy with every post.

I love our cat boy. <3

Even with the spirit vessel in our possession, I imagine that walk back down the tower was a very solemn one.

But how sweet that "Good morning!" must have been. (Thankfully, that's Tataru's tea, not Lalli's.)

What better way to go on a relaxing, low-stakes adventure than to take him to the place where you come from?

You can take him to meet your siblings, while showing off some amazing history. (We all know how he feels about history.)

This is totally what he gets for wanting her to take him on adventures.

Lalli really, really enjoys a good cup of tea. Like, she is not normal about her tea. Unfortunately, considering her Warrior of Light status and the mass amounts of aether she must use to simply be the Warrior of Light... she makes her tea a... little on the strong side.

Granted, she's well aware of that, and has a plethora of candy and other sweets on hand.

We've come a long way since that day in Mor Dhona before the Crystal Tower...

...Can't wait to see where we go next.

I imagine this conversation went like this: "Did you know green is the opposite of red?" "Where are you going with this...?" "Just imagine... what if you were green?!" "I think I'd rather not!" "Friends tell me I must have the 'orange brain cell'... what if I were orange?!"

"Absolutely not!" "Yeah... yeah... I kind of hate that a lot..."

Lalli is an adventurer. An adventurer who grew up in Gyr Abania and the Black Shroud. Books and research and studying? Not really her forte. But, when asked to help out... she's going to do what she does best: help! Especially if a certain red-haired cat boy is the one asking for her help...

She just may not be great at it!

Okay... haven't done a challenge like this before, but how could I resist? Lalli is a miqo'te because of our deep love for this cinnamon roll of a cat boy. (Seriously... I have a G'raha problem. I've got a stuffie that hangs out at my desk, and a Raha keychain around my car's gear shift. He's forever my co-pilot.)

Yeah, we're in a mood at the moment. Don't know what it is, but we're here for it.

And for a Pride Present - as this is the first year they get to come with us when we go to our state's largest Pride festival - I did a few more poses with their future Warrior of Light under their Pride colors. Love you, Rae, you beautiful little being! <3

Just a picture of Z'itlalli and her brother - who's name is Z'azhi Tia, by the way - relaxin' in Rhalgr's Reach. I'm glad I wound up putting her tribe in Ala Mhigan gear...

Almost went with a Ancients/Ascian theme for the "Remember" challenge. It was fun to play around with what Azem-Z'itlalli may have looked like, but in the end I went with memories of her family which turned out a lot better imo.
