I like videogames and cats. Currently in FFXIV hell. Icon by @moldyartichoke.bsky.social

Idk if people are still doing it here, but some friends were making these in one of my discord servers so I thought I'd share mine! At first I wasn't sure I had 9 games that I consider that important, but now I feel I could think of a few more.

9 games that shaped me: box art for Ocarina of Time, Tales of Symphonia, Donkey Kong Country, Animal Crossing, Final Fantasy 14, Undertale, Persona 4, Fire Emblem 3 Houses, and Metroid Fusion.

I'm guilty of having a Luna😅 I knew the name was at critical mass, but we already had a cat called Artemis and I'm a Sailor Moon fan so I couldn't resist. She's the sweetest, most gentle cat I've ever known❤️

It's probably Donkey Kong Country - my first video game! I still have my SNES too, and last time I tried it, it still works☺️

I ended up using the 2B dress and some of the wedding clothes for mine, but I'm still not 100% satisfied with it🤔 I have no idea what I'm looking for though lol

I was already growing fond of him by this point, but the minute he said this I was like "oh...he's gonna be Anzu's boyfriend isn't he"

G'raha Tia from FFXIV, with a soft look on his face, saying "Come now, I didn't say that. While it may not be the most carefree experience, there is nothing in this world I would rather do than write a new future with you."

I cannot draw at all, but my dear friend @moldyartichoke.bsky.social has drawn Anzu a few times for me🥰

Share the last 4 games you’ve played and expose your gaming habits. (FFXIV may be cheating since I'm usually playing it to some degree buuuut)

Anzu and G'raha are actually not that far apart in height, which I find funny in its own way because he is a short king in most people's wolgraha ships. However she is HILARIOUSLY smaller than Nucifera, my SO's WoL, who is max height. XD I think they're both cute though🥰

Anzu's outfits usually lean more feminine or slim-fitting; she doesn't like to wear armor. She also favors pastel colors (esp. pink & purple), though she has outfits in darker tones. She doesn't usually do hats, and prefers to wear circlets or other hair adornments.

She's so cuuuuute 🥰

Anzu in January(left) and Anzu now (right)! Her hairstyle/color + graphical update is all that really changed. January is also when I started EW, so...that was a time

My pink female Au Ra Anzu wearing the lvl 80 WHM gear. She has long, wavy dark pink hair with white highlights and is wearing a calm smile.

Anzu sitting at a table. She has lighter pink hair with white highlights, tied into a side ponytail with a braid wrapped around it. She's wearing the lvl 100 WHM gear.

I have one of from post-ARR cutscene with her eyes half closed...she was tired ok.... Second one is from Hildibrand, when I was trying out orange hair on her. It was not the right look.

My female Au Ra Anzu, wearing a cobbled-together assortment of Drachen and Ironworks mail and her eyes half closed. She has just saved Eorzea and she's ready for a nap (or she blinked right as I hit the screenshot button)

Anzu wearing the level 90 dancer gear in hot pink, with light orange hair tied in a ponytail. The colors clash terribly; her face is an unladylike grimace. She's jumping into the air to defuse a bomb because she's awesome like that.
