realized why my go-to caster is SMN and it’s because I’m a BRD player. I know the exact timings of everything in a fight to the second because of BRD so I never even have to think about swapping primal orders for SMN because I *already know them* because of BRD’s timings

lodestone pic from the very first day of playing (April 20, 2022) vs mid-raid selfie with da oomf from two days ago (bonus end-of-prog-week mood from last night)

yaknow. I’m kinda realizing that I don’t feel anything about FRU. Like I’m not particularly excited to do any mech, I’m not enthralled by any phase, there isn’t any part of it where I go “wow I feel so cool for doing this right”… it’s just a “Going through the motions” fight

day 1 of prog for the week vs day 3 of prog (in a row)

cohealers who swiftcast raise the same guy I’m hardcasting when I’m 90% through the cast and there’s a whole other guy on the ground, wasting my Thin Air because I had to restart the raise cast: I am exploding you with my mind

anything MSQ is canon for Caramell (up to Elpis), but only normal-mode. For Tetsu everything MSQ is canon except it's all EX+
Pandae is canon for both, Alexander only for Caramell, and CoB only for Tetsu
HOWEVER. DSR and TEA are also canon for Tetsu because i wanted to torment him with a HW timeloop
// it’s #wolqotd time again! inspired by another question I saw about FATEs, what optional content do YOU consider canon to your WoL/oc?

raid series, random adventures, the Firmament, you name it, what’s canon for them?

Tetsu spends most of his time around the Arcadion for now, and Caramell has been an entertaining addition to Tetsu's "act". Mostly though, Tetsu's trying not to end up too severely weakened by maintaining Caramell's simulacrum, and the Arcadion is as good a place as any to test his new limits
#wolqotd time

Where is your Wol/OC right now? Are they in the middle of a journey? At home? Alone, with people, at work? How are they feeling about their situation?

sometimes i watch back videos from prog and catch a cool animation from me and i'm just like wow. bard animations are kinda cool sometimes (ft my fru glam that's been changing every 4 days)

got aglaia in roulette today and oh my god stg you only do like two mechs in each fight because EW content is soooo slow AND that raid is so squishy. awful experience, each fight was under 3 minutes (I went on SMN and every fight ended before my second Phoenix)

what if you wanted to sit down and write but you can’t work without music and YouTube JUST shut your account down for suspicious activity so the playlist you JUST made like 24 hours ago is just completely gone-

The sooner you come to a couple realizations the better:
1. Everyone in your computer is a person. They have the same agency (and flaws) that you do
2. If you constantly expose yourself to discourse, you have to admit you might enjoy it in some way (watching drama, arguing, poking the bear, etc)
What's your secret to being online all the time without contracting computer madness? For me it's being pure of heart

For writing im a planner to the point where actually Writing The Thing is usually more like just fleshing out my outline
Drawing is “I got possessed and blacked out and now I have this” (if my hand doesn’t give out before it’s done)
And gpose is like I get haunted for several days until I do it
#wolqotd

Do you plan your creative works first or do you wing it? What additional steps do you take, if any? This includes writing, drawing, gposing, and so forth. Please share your process! ❤️

look I know it’s early on but if anything bad happens to Aino and Ineffa I’m going to commit a crime
September 13, 2025 at 1:46 AM
god it’s so hard balancing XIV and wow and Genshin and writing again AND drawing AND im supposed to be sewing like how the fuck do people have time for hobbies outside of work I’m lucky if I squeeze in 2 of them per week and then sneak in writing a few hundred words before bed

my brother accidentally pulled c1 Lauma and since she’s a healer at c1 she replaced his baizhu for bloom teams but we can’t stop calling her the hateful deer because she drained my savings and didn’t come home so-

Abyssos beats Cruiserweight just because of the cosmetics. P8S phase 2 is SO fucking cool conceptually and M8S phase 2 uses the arena change so well and the SPEED on m8 is good to see. Cruiser has better spectacles than Abyssos but the mount and weapon glams are middddd, Abyssos CLEARS on that front
#wolqotd for players:

What was your favorite savage raid tier in the entire game?

For any reason, whether it be for the fights, mounts, gear/glamours, etc.

Mine is Abyssos for both the mount and the glamours. The Sunforged is a really cool mount conceptually (haha) and the gear is just… so good.

this bleach is so funny because on the box it says “lift 7 levels! go platinum!” and after an hour of sitting on my head the lightest it could manage was like a medium caramel (but this is fine actually because I don’t have to dye it again AND I got out of this with very minimal damage)
debating if I let this process to like.. as light as possible or stop it around the orangey point….. I can always go back to darker but I may not be able to bleach it further toward blonde hmmmmm

The deer is a hateful woman… 42 wishes and I get a 67 pity c5 mona 😔
At least I’m guaranteed for Flins now and he seems polite
Genshin needs to LET ME IN I need the DEER WOMAN IMMEDIATELY

Caramell: Scholar trapped in maddening eternity, holds desperate power over Time
Tetsu: Rebellious teen turned host body for aetheric science experiments. Whoops!

Alternatively: Tetsu is haunted by the narrative. Caramell is the narrative.

I spelled Ktisis wrong-
but dynamic character-cast shadows are everythingggg i never have to play the “well if I just got a shader” game anymoreeee

Tetsu’s parents were born and raised Doman, but due to imperial occupation Tetsu was born in Sui-no-Sato after they fled
Caramell grew up in the mountains near Dalmasca. When he’s asked he just says he’s from Othard, or lies and says Sharlayan
#WoLQoTD

I'm curious on the demographic (?), but from where did your OC come from?
