(Also happy to play on into/through EW and/or DT and/or eventual EC if we can work out a way to make it work depending on char.) OCs & other NPCs also very much welcome, just not mentioned directly previously because they take slightly more effort to work into the story. Definitely down, though.

More thorough versions on both AUs in this post on my Media account: bsky.app/profile/feli... But yeah. If anyone wants to replay SHB with varying amounts of RP, hit up my DMs? ;-; Can play on any region, though I'll be playing WAR or WHM instead of BRD bc I hate BRD. Glam, Penum, & PSync please?

1) proper/Meteor Azem dies in Final Days, gifts power to Hyth to fill his seat (interim measure, but 'Oops! All Sundering') 2) Estinien is too late, so proper/Meteor WoL dies in the Elidizenos encounter at the very end of post-STB. Hydaelyn goes oopsie, drags in sundered Hyth as replacement WoL. >

1️⃣ The Who: Ideally I'd be looking for Emet (especially an EmetHyth shipper?), any Scion, or the Exarch, but I'm happy to discuss other options. 2️⃣ The How: Partying up for a NG+ playthrough of SHB (you don't have to NG+, but I'm going to to watch cutscenes/do duties). Much of it will probably be >

On a related-to-Hyth-RP note-- I've been wanting to do a self-indulgent Hyth AU RP re-playthrough of SHB to replace bad memories and remember the plot for... months. Previous plans have fallen through multiple times. More details below, but would love to find ideally a SHB NPC to RP with? ;-;

Would you happen to have a link to the third list you pulled from, the one starting with 1: Sunrise? I've found the OGs of the other two, but that one I'm not finding anywhere. (Because apparently I also have masochistic tendencies...)

< certain lines.

2) Full disclosure for ethical reasons: I'm using what I believe is probably a LLM (it's just a site but from the name I assume LLM) for all the translation because I simply don't have the $$$ to get all of it done by hand and could never get it done at all that way.

A couple notes: 1) The reason I had to write pa¥ instead of the actual word is because when casually mentioning a c0mmissi0n, I got absolutely FLOODED with bots, and I wasn't even looking for a person there. I'm hoping this will be legible to humans but skip the bots so that my inbox is only humans.

Hythlodaeus (semi-hiatus) @thatonehythguy.bsky.social · 23/03/2026

hi this account is still dead bc bsky RP is hard with the char limit, but I'm shamelessly using it to amplify my ooc reach. I'm looking for someone who knows XIV extensively and can fluently read Japanese to help augment some translations of some of the fan comics I own. Can pa¥ within reason. 🧵>

You speak falsely with such words: the poem is beautiful. It captures your heart and feelings, as true poetry should. I see no reason to fault you on any of it.

[A chuckle marks the rolling of eyes, a fond smile teasing at Hyth's lips.] I am doing well. I have been exploring this beautiful new world -- have you ever been to the Sea of Clouds? Between the boundless sky and all the flying creatures, I daresay even *Hermes* would have found himself smiling.

[It doesn't take him long to read the poem, yet he stares at it for a few moments longer regardless. After a slow breath, he lowers it, then promptly moves to give Elidibus a tight, warm hug.] It is beautiful. [He shuts his mouth abruptly, looking hesitant. Clearly, there is more he could say.]

Oh, and one more #hythades gpose I don't think I ever posted on Hyth.... My caption from the time: "[Percy] has been farming the new minion a ton, including one to give to me. I couldn't resist a gpose. (especially now that I /finally/ have a computer again....)"
