rikk's corner 🐾 @ EW 6.0

#rikkspoils 6.0 // ok wait aether sickness is actually the funniest fucking in-game story related status effect ive ever encountered i fear im going to be enjoying EW (albeit begrudgingly as a woman enjoyer)

cant wait for my free trial to end so i can finally touch grass again and also draw lulu chowing down like a starving pup on yshtola's bush

I KNOW IM JUST SAYING LIKE ITS STILL APPROPOS EVEN THO IT WASNT COMPLETELY INTENTIONAL

ok I’m in a celebrating mood I’m gonna open up two(2) drink comm slots on Saturday 9/27 @ 3pm CT !!!!

🥂 vgen.co/Mithruidatism

SJFNDJC ICL THATS JUST @gregparser.bsky.social's CONTACT ON MY PHONE BUT I THINK ITS ALSO QUITE APT FOR FREDDY, KNOWN ENJOYER OF CHARMING BURLY MEN

his degree is in being a sneaky trifling slut and honestly good for him

#rikkspoils 6.0 // important things are being discussed right this minute

i like how u took away from post-shb was the intriguing angle of what if graha tia but dissociative identity disorder VS me going "damn even Fantasy Oxford University couldnt escape the inevitable: dogshit campus dining"

crossposting some old writing 🫣

brewed from the idea of g’raha’s memories/identity being jumbled up post shb: that the beginning of ew would have possibly made him haunted and brainsick

cw for depiction of derealization and depersonalization, imagery involving body violence

rikk just started 6.0 and landed in old sharlayan i get to celebrate with the same genuine enthusiasm of picking my friends up from the airport

i will take breaks from this game for days. sometimes even weeks or months. but no matter what i will always come back and make posts that are even worse

actually i take it back i started thinking about 5.4-5.55 again and im considering knocking this hoe down to a 6.5/10.....amaurot & SoS got her hanging onto that 7 by a Thread

(was looking at her from the rose colored glasses of it not being ARR or HW which were like 4 & 5 for me, respectively 🤧)

i know i sound like a hater - And I Am dw - but I did enjoy a lot of what SHB had to offer, especially with the sineaters and the innate horror of aetherial corruption [chefs kiss]

certainly not a perfect expansion by any means, but she Got Me square in the chest at times

a respectable 7/10 (3/3)

NAMELY oml playing as the members of the WoD, playing as thancred, the continent of kholusia, playing as the scions in that BULLSHIT solo duty to end the game, yshtola's Out Of Pocket comments abt the viera, daughters being vehicles for their "father's" character growth, graha crush, LA HI (2/3)

#rikkspoils thoughts on shb // for as much i bitched about this expansion when i started, it definitely grew on me the further along i got: ardbert in his entirety, that build up to 5.3 and the insane payoff that was seat of sacrifice 😮‍💨💵

But boy, was this one full of some Dumb Shit (1/3)

zattana's lore works exactly the same way dw 😭😭

#rikkspoils END OF SHB // ISHIKAWA YOU ARE GOING TO HELL FOR YOUR PACING CRIMES BECAUSE W H A T?????????

thanks suletta

tadpole

Alisaie & Y’shtola

CW: (elezen) puberty angst, brief menstruation reference, very mild implications of childhood bullying

(1/4)

i am taking the clinically recommended dose of tylenol, and no more, so that i will become mediocre at magic the gathering

and here i thought heavensward's pacing was hogwild 😭 shb post-5.3 is on an entirely different class of its own i fear 🥴

#rikkspoils 5.5 // i fear you will have to rip my beloved ala mhigans away from my cold dead hands.....i wuv my tall friends........

we are the funniest ppl alive is the thing

esme with her brother overlooking her

not as it seems
#wizardlore

she contains many facets far beyond what ur mind can comprehend 🙂‍↕️💕

Panel 1: Varis walking down a hallway carrying a very young child Zenos over one shoulder Zenos: how do we know that man, papa? Varis: you met him when you were a baby! That’s papa’s best friend, Regula. Panel 2: Varis looking wistfully off to one side; the back of Zenos’s head shown as he rests his chin on his father‘s shoulder Varis: a best friend makes this existence bearable Panel 3: Zenos seen from the front, wide eyed, his father’s gloved hand on his back Varis from offscreen: we’ll find you one of your own someday, Zenos, and then you’ll understand.

Younger Varis and Zenos #ffxivart
