Also, in a "kinda but not really" way, THOSE DANG MOOGLES. They're so CUTE but they're just so NAUGHTY. It really isn't fair. Of course he supports helping them and can find them charming at times, but sometimes you really must just slap a moogle.

He also can't stand Aymeric. In a way it's almost comedic, because it wasn't one thing? He feels Aymeric never completely took responsibility for some of his behavior (and what was lost as a result) and wishes him well for others' sake but hates being in the same room. He can't always force a smile.

He is exceedingly protective of the twins (and, well, everyone tbh) and very respectful towards Y'shtola. She kind of reminds him of a lot of the Viera he left behind.
He cannot stand Zenos, but that's because Zenos has a similar fire that he isn't totally comfortable resembling even slightly.

Yuuki has a fair amount of friends, getting closer with Thancred wasn't as surprising as he thought but *wow* does it do nothing for the rumor that he has a giant soft spot for Hyurs. (It's not just them, he swears! It's non-Viera!!)

#WolQoTd no. 2, (because why stop at just one?)
Does/did your WOL/OC have feelings for any NPC character(s)? If so, did they do anything about it like develop a relationship? If not, who became their closest friend? Who /can't/ they stand? Could be from MSQ or side content!

Hi everyone! o/ Would your OC hug someone in distress if they knew that person wanted/needed it? That could be a mourning parent/orphan, grieving spouse, etc but only someone met in passing -- no named figures and no political gains here!
Or would they be unable to, and why?

And to circle back to Kiki, she fries batter on makeshift grills and wonders why it goes poorly. She's Raen, but she may as well be Nashu's sister from another mister, that's about her level of brain power.

In shared WoL-verses, he maintains slight bristling with Ishgardian elites and gets on far better with people like Estinien and Hilda. If offered fancy food, he asks for it to be bagged up and gives it away.
He knows it's weird. He's working on it! It gets better later, but uh, too soon, Aymeric.

> at least not by this point. For him, sitting in a wealthy man's manor and indulging in a large meal while others starved in the cold was tone-deaf, brief though it was intended to be. He felt forced into attending. It is no question he would go to the aid of someone in need rather than stay.

He struggles a lot with the Ishgard's isolationist stance, originating from an isolated area himself and suffering the consequences of not adhering to ancient traditions, being utterly powerless to change them.
Yuuki also does not tolerate lavish dining. He does not eat to indulge and relax, >

My silly non-WoL/sometimes WoL takes everything wrong, because she's silly and young. My goofy Raen girl, Kiki, lets her imagination run wild with everything.
Yuuki, my exiled Viera, takes the forced dinner with Aymeric very poorly, well-intended though it may have been. >

I had this thought while considering my WoL's reaction to big story moments:
Has your WoL(OC) taken another character's words the wrong way or misinterpreted their meaning? Did it affect their feelings toward that character? Did the misunderstanding ever get cleared up?

He essentially felt at that point it was an extension of his inadequacy as someone who was meant to be a solitary defender of the woods, and he'll say as much in not so many words.
Though he will also say that people aren't meant to spend a lifetime alone, and that he is grateful>

> with things that were risky, but important. He was used to being denied work and being discounted as too visibly damaged to be of much use (barring the Scions, they didn't talk like that), but he needed to push past a lot of anxiety and self-worth issues to ask for help getting prosthetic parts.

He is hesitant to confess this to most, but he is afraid almost all of the time. He worries. He fears failing people now that he has them.
When he was tired enough of repeated failures that he took blame for, he asked for help clumsily. First with something small, washing his hair (amputee), then >

He's Viera. It took time. He was too used to having it drilled in that there is no help, it is just you, and if you are not enough then you die and another will replace you. If he hadn't been a Warder, it may have been less of a hurdle. He used to be better at it.

#wolqotd Today my tarot deck gave me the Three of Pentacles, a card of teamwork and collaboration toward building something.
What was a time your character needed to reach out to others to accomplish their goals? How did they feel about not having the power to do it all themselves?

He, both of his sisters, and actually quite a few unrelated Viera he knew back then still have these odd dislikes of entering the large, off-center archival center but they all give different answers as to why.

His cover story (the crummy one he got) was that it was an accidental swing with a botany axe by another young Viera who didn't get along with him, and that both were at fault, but that the other Viera was provoked first. He was told it would be "unbecoming to be too angry with her."

His mother gave him that as a show of obedience and a promise to keep him in line while her superiors assisted with altering the memory of how he got it on his end of things. It's stressful, sickening, he doesn't like it, but he can't remember.

Anyone looking at the guy littered with ugly scars might think it odd that that one out of all of them gives him such trouble, but it's nauseating to him -- and not for vanity reasons. He doesn't know, but it's the body kind of yearning & remembering where his mind doesn't quite get there, >>

He can stand to look at the scars on his neck and even his arm, but he cannot tolerate looking at his eye and keeps it covered. His explanation for that one doesn't make sense but is all he has to work with, and curious as he is, he can't think of looking into it further.

>> more about tampering with how he has to use his own aether due to tipping the balance of it. He can still do it, it just required working at it to get a feel for his new baseline.
The one that hurts him more inexplicably (to him!) is his the comparably superficial scar over his eye.

The easy answer would be the injury that just about took Yuuki's arm off at the shoulder, and ultimately resulted in amputation. That one was difficult, as was the injury around his neck, and both left him with differing disabilities -- one obvious limb loss, the other >>
