Lightingway 🌱 6.0

Urianger: What serendipitous irony that the remnants of the Seventh Umbral Calamity would become the keys to mankind's salvation. Never more certain have I been that Master Louisoix watcheth over us from the aetherial sea...

oh, i don't think he's... i don't know if his soul is at rest girl...

G'raha Tia: Time and time again, it seems that Allagan something-or-other are either the cause of or the solution to our problems.

almost like the writers of this game crafted their universe to include a "whatever bullshit i need" magic thing

Estinien: ...Considering how much of a fuss he made at the time, I don't see why he takes every opportunity to bring it up. It was just firewood.

this is very juvenile but i have always loved a "whole world team up" moment i'm on record as saying that

Kokkol Dankkol: Some of them can hold enough aether to summon a whole damn primal. Combine a source like that with the aetherburner and three...two...one...kaboom!

I AM NOT IMMUNE TO HAVING MY FAVORITE EXPAC REFERENCED

Alphinaud: Gathering firewood, so to speak. We alone can accomplish little, but joined by others, we may yet build a bonfire to carry us heavensward.

alphinaud firewood tally: i lost count a few expansions ago

he's really just hamming it up here for the people who are trapped in 2017 huh

ohhh this explains that fic where the adamantite-- ohhhhh

Thancred, hit @ everyone on the eorzean alliance discord

i think it would be funny if we made fourchenault go. hey you had your thing that you were sworn to secrecy over so you can see ours in exchange. it is your dad. lmao bye

what will you say? you want me to go and fetch the wotsits? the white raven's ghost... it haunts me... this sounds like a job for someone else.

girl you know who the white raven's ghost is haunting and it isn't you

i wonder what alisaie says if you HAVEN'T done bahamut!

thsi goes crazy if you've done coils of bahamut lol

calline, gathering main: i can't believe they have an engineering problem that i am both able and excited to solve

oh instead of dynamis theyre just going to send us to carteneau to pick this magic metal out of allagan ruins aren't they. if not carteneau then azys lla again.

Fourchenault: It is no easy feat to convert their technology into an efficient means of propulsion for a “teeny-tiny toy boat,” as they say─and as I most certainly do not.

he looks so dejected. are you compensating for s

oh if the problem is that the rocket burns aether maybe we should make it run on dynamis. on... wings of hope...

i love this middle aged gay mechanic and the voice actor they got for him

Thancred, looking at the ceiling: would that the heavens elsewhere could be so idyllic...

oh, he's still coming off his corvos mission. good touch.

unfortunately the extra grim read of a character or relationship you have concocted because you’re understandably annoyed at the people woobifying it is also reactionary to fandom and not a response to the source. neither of you are reading here

Estinien: I have no idea what makes Alphinaud so confident we can solve this problem of theirs. Relentless optimism, I presume. A not-unwelcome trait in a youth...but less so in a gambler. Aye─let us resolve never to let him set foot in the Gold Saucer.

estinien, whose second most flanderized trait is that he doesn't know how much anything should cost: alphinaud has the makings of a gacha whale

not the damn music switching away from endwalker warm scion group moment to arr ominous mysterious when fourchenault enters the scene

Urianger: 'Tis all too easy to take for granted the many interweaving aspects of the natural world. To grow inured to the wondrous.

beautifully put

Alisaie: Hold on. How do you know so much about it? Alphinaud: Why, Father brought me here as a child. Alisaie: What!? And left me behind!? Alphinaud: Actually, you're the one who left me behind, when you went off somewhere with Grandfather.

Alisaie: okay, fine. i suppose this appeases my rejection sensitive dysphoria. for now

alisaie: alphinaud, why do you know so much about the weather control facility!?
calline: actually, he doesn't know that much. i learned all the same information from asking the skyweaver guy at the front desk--
alphinaud: shhh

Estinien: The fields we passed along the way brought back memories...of Ferndale. Unfortunately, we were never blessed with such abundant crops.

Urianger: On our journey here, I was filled with an inexplicable sense of elation to see vegetables other than carrots being cultivated. Why, it near brought a tear to mine eye...

quest benner of this miqote directing a troll minion like a pokemon. the troll has a big smile. it is cute

AETHERCURRENT DONT MIND IF I DOOO

Fourchenault: Actually...there is something I have been meaning to...

how mysterious!

urianger says he found records from the archeion that the forum sent to the moon but the loporrits weren't that interested in them 😭

estinien really said touch grass but only the outdoor grass idgaf about the indoor grass
