pearl ✦ eyes like sinking

im really hoping this is a good sign for the rest of this year's events... activities/games AND lots of rewards. i was able to grab everything i wanted from valentione's from two runs, but idol rhythm game ten times in a row has actually been SOOOOO fun. esp seeing everyone else there!!

The same image as the parent post, but cropped to show only Ayame's head from the shoulders-up. The zoomed-in view shows that she has additional strands of hair painted on to add a more natural look to the image.

here is a close-up view to show the additional details of her hair and face! 🍃

A feminine Hyur named Ayame (she/they) with long green-and-cream hair, viewed from the waist-up. She is touching her chest and waving to the camera, a snapshot of the Songbirds' dance routine. She is dressed in the Songbirds' attire, dyed in a meadow green that matches her hair and eyes. Her face is alight with a winning smile, her expression aimed toward the viewer. The lighting is sunny and warm, with a slight greenish hue accenting her from the left. Behind her is the Little Ladies' Day stage.

🔊 how do you feel about this green idol~?

A-YA-MAZING — — !! 🍃

and it has to be made by a fellow blorbo poster and not the shitter dj club guys. i need billboard & mod culture letter at the top, but i need the bsky exclusive experiences at the bottom. i want xiv drama youtubers to scratch their heads halfway down the iceberg like it's meant to be.

I think too many people are too comfortable with demanding that others monitor and cater to their own discomfort. Your unhealed trauma and personal discomfort, especially regarding others' bodies, is for you to sit with and unpack, not for others to censor themselves and their own personhoods for.

i follow your other bsky and i've been super happy to have done so, and i have your blog bookmarked!!! but i tend to check it when im doing my other blog rounds (abt once a week), so i end up seeing your blog posts mostly from you posting them on your other acc!

sry this is so lazy but i just needed to see her 😭

clenches fists. i have to get better. i have to get better at gposing. im so fucking good at coloring and shading but once it's a gpose its like all of my skills drip away. i push the curves and contrast and levels and then i worry the lights & darks are clipping so i tone it all back down.

pixel converter unfortunately humbled me so bad the other night, all of my pictures that aren't "standing in the white void" are sooooo dark and/or lack so much contrast that they all just showed up as 2 dark colors. or maybe im using it wrong (my last whiff of coping with Not Being Perfect)

i was just thinking about this the other day when trying to buy some otc shit for my wife in a hurry. "what to take for xyz" and google gives me ai slop suggesting prescription meds for completely innocuous shit. i really hope legislation catches the fuck up already.

That one Roblox outfit trend but its my current outfit rotation in XIV #gposers #tigrisanima

YES! YES! YES!! IDOL CHERUB WITH A FLOATING STAGE AND A DOG THAT THE PEOPLE OF EORZEA GIFTED TO HER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! to emphasize her as the goddess of ALL LOVE and not just romantic.... IM TEARING UP JUST THINKING ABOUT HER !! SHE LITERALLY LOOKS SO COOL SHE'S MY FAVORITE DESIGN OF THE TWELVE!!!!!

holy fucking shit i'm so glad to hear i wasn't alone. the whole raid series was during a socmed blackout for me and yet i still had to deal with defending her to IDIOTS !!!! who INSULTED HER AND HER DESIGN !!!! WHILE GUSHING ABOUT HER THEME BEING THEIR OC'S THEME AND HER BEING THEIR PATRON!!! RAAAAH

not specifically at least. again i feel like i cant even be less vague than this without it being glaringly obvious. i cant go "btw its not this or this or this, so dont worry, this must sound really bad being so vague huh" but no it's really not. but i cant say why. you must trust me.

i keep trying to talk about my ocs but there's a distinct level to some of them that really needs my irl experience for context, its the one thing i need to contextualize with "this is my literal lived experience regardless of how uncouth one may view it", but i just am not ready to talk abt it.

term searchers and list makers are my enemy. bsky cannot be organized, its a shitter clone, its whole point is its Current And Now Feed. on a blog i can tag things easily, and on t*mblr the search is awwwwwful, but on a NEOCITIES BLOG i can be a rabid animal /pos

its not so much that im "scared" of xiv bsky, more so i made this acc to be my xiv account and to disconnect from my main, and then i got nervous about the two overlapping (i'm far more open abt my self here than my main), and now im just like. oh pearl you have to keep your secrets.

closes eyes. i need a blog. i need to make a website and i need it to have a blog. i need to talk about myself freely.

hurt and no comfort cool cool cool. no comfort FOREVER???? i can't do it...

i think everyone can like whatever they want and do whatever they want with their ocs but i think some ppl in fandom just need to be honest with themselves about what theyre doing (in the context of creating trauma porn) and then AT LEAST do everyone a favor and start tagging it if thats what you do

i'm trying not to attribute this to a specific kind of person bc it's far too common in fandom spaces to psychoanalyze in good faith. but i will say, beyond me just not liking this in general, it's deeply uncomfortable to see white fan creators doing it to their ocs who are not white. routinely !

ANGST IS GREAT every song on adonis' playlist is about her biggest heartbreak, which was something that was completely out of her control (unable to visit dravania after the sharlayans left) and i cry through the whole 2 hour list every time. i just dont get it when its constant and nonstop.

and ofc thinking about past xiv rp partners. im sorry but i have to side eye people who get to the point of effectively writing trauma porn nonstop and constantly bringing up the childhood abuse (of all kinds) their oc went through like it was just a haha fun fact im so evi to my blorbo

obligatory: i havent been on the feed today so if this complaining seems targeted i swear it's just poor timing. im just faffing about on my old tumblr blogs and remembering just how fucking impossible it was to try to roleplay with ocs who were ALWAYS violently injured or emotionally distraught.

ive never liked it, i understand it for the most part bc everyone says the same (valid) reason (coping w/ their own life), but man. rubs hands down face. esp in rp spaces. just constantly going out of the way to elicit angst in the form of Woe Be My Poor Baby. it just gets old real fast.
