I’ll probably do more of these as time goes on, but also just a heads up that from here on out, posts will start to show scenery based photos from various areas around Dawntrail up to the second to last zone. It will not show the last zone nor anything to do with the Main Scenario Quest unless specifically warned about with a spoiler disclaimer.
That’s not related to what this post is about, I just wanted to give a forewarning about images upcoming. However, with that being said & addressed, I’ve noticed some replies here, as well as us crossing paths with folks around Eorzea and beyond since my Mastodon hiatus. Just wanted to take this post & time to basically say ‘We see y’all, and thank you.’ I know I’m pretty not great at responding right in the now as either 1) I forget due to something coming up or 2) see it and don’t have that moment to reply, for in which it loops back to #1.
I’m going to start with the responses posted here; hopefully y’all don’t mind, but if y’all do please let me know! Caius, I got really emotional upon reading your response to Bahamut Day 2023. I’m really thankful and happy to have met you as well, and that day was such a wonderful memory for you too. I’m pretty certain everyone was a variable of nervous that day (I know I was!) Hopefully everything has been going well on your end, and I still remember crossing paths with you in the Gold Saucer that one evening before having to scurry off on tasks. Hugs & thanks for everything.
Sirena, just… thank you, Hun – for all the countless things you do. You and Juli both, thank y’all and love y’all lots. I think Aiki is mostly adapted to her new form, and the part of the tale we’re not sure about should come to light soon. I’m really happy you loved the tree; that’s one of my favorite festive items to put up each year – think that was the 2nd year too. We’ll have it up again this year as well! I know we squee’d a ton about Super Mario RPG – that was such a fun game to go back through again! Keep kicking tail, you know you got this; we’ll always be there to have your tail, and cheer you on too.
As to those I’ve ran across in Eorzea. T’lapka, eventually we’ll cross paths again, but thank you for wishing all of us a Happy New Years 2024, and I really hope your year is going wonderfully. Akari, I think the last couple of times you came around, I was either so gosh darn tired or dealing with technical issues. Always wonderful to see you, as well as Ellany! I know the last few times Ellany was around, I think it was just Lizz and Laureine busy running about through Dawntrail. Look forward to seeing your amazing drawings once again. Keep kicking tail, especially in your Extremes and Savage runs!
Donald, aside from the last time when we were in Solution Nine, I think we’ve crossed paths the most but usually been away from the keyboard, engrossed/distracted, or attempting one but being away more so! Hope everything is going well, give extra pets to your carbuncle for us! Azelma, I believe you and I crossed paths once in Gridania, but not entirely sure, if so my apologies – was dealing with a technical issue at the time. Always wonderful to catch up with you, and the couple of times we’ve been able to in the past have been incredibly nice to do. Hopefully soon again we can, but in the meantime – hope everything has been going wonderfully!
Michael, I’m still curious as to how y’all enjoyed House 2; still need to watch that one myself – perhaps this October. The Fish Percolator is still safely up and running in the ~ARCHIVES~ as well… somehow. Still bewilders me to this day, but I love the fact that it does. Hope you’ve been well on your adventures, and hopefully we’ll cross paths soon too. Albeit we might just mysteriously stop by the Inspector’s abode one night in the meantime. Congrats on finishing Endwalker recently, and that your journey through Dawntrail is absolutely a blast!
I think that’s everyone that’s either commented here or we’ve seen around. Thank y’all so much, and to everyone else – miss y’all lots. I know I’ve been saying for a long while now that I’ll return to Mastodon eventually, but every time I’ve tried to something happens™ and causes another delay. It will happen, but I just don’t know when yet. Hopefully though y’all are doing well and continue to! Keep being your absolute best ‘zee awesome’sies’ as Aikirees would say, and keep kicking tails.
