aeffia @aefaith.bsky.social · 20/09/2026Growing up in a small village, Niko hadn't met anyone else that was asexual. A big part of her journey was leaving the village and realising she wasn't the only one, by meeting someone like her. (Though that is the only way they are alike. Niko and Valerie do not get along) #QueerPrompts #WriteSky 030 3

aeffia @aefaith.bsky.social · 25/08/2026For sure. Niko's a guard, but even when transplanted to a new canon, she feels that protecting others is her responsibility. Failure hurts. 010 1
aeffia @aefaith.bsky.social · 24/08/2026There's definitely a place for characters just saying how they feel. ...Not all the time, there is a reason its not the done thing, but there's no need to be completely allergic to characters stating their emotions.

aeffia @aefaith.bsky.social · 14/08/2026Most of us already knew the risks, which is why this is getting a bit mocked (And I don't begrudge the jokes, they are funny). But if most people knowing something was enough during an emergency, the system wouldn't exist to begin with. 100 1
aeffia @aefaith.bsky.social · 14/08/2026Did the no barbeques alert warrant the emergency alert system? It sounds silly, but I'd argue yes. With so many wildfires raging, some burning peoples homes, its absolutely critical to make sure everyone is aware of the current fire risk due to hot and dry weather. 100 1
