If they all were under one goverment, or all three citystates had the same type of goverment then it’d be a lot better but Gridiania is a Pseudo-Monarchy (I think that’s how you would describe it), Limsa is a dictatorship, and Ul’dah is ruled by a council of the elite under a puppet Monarch.
Actions done by Kan-E, or Merlwyb (especially Merlwyb because she answers to no one but herself) is an action (even just healing raubahn) that represents the whole of Gridania/Limsa. And, even if they didn’t immediately hold hard feelings against them for assisting the alleged assassin of their monarch, and their co-conspirator/person who actually just assassinated one of their government heads, it could still lead to bad feelings that could fester and grow. Especially if there are any garlean sleeper agents whispering sweet nothing’s in their ears.
Not to mention, during Ilberd and Raubahn’s fight if Merlwyb stepped in to help fight him she could have ended up dead. Which would have destabilized Limsa as there would be a power vacuum that all those pirate leaders and wannabe Mistbeards would be more then happy to try and fill.
Anonymous asked: Weren't you a feminist? I remember when I first started following you, you just kept talking about feminism
Uh, I can’t say I was ever really a feminist. There was probably a point in time I would have called myself one but I didn’t really understand/know the views of modern feminists and I don’t agree with a lot of them. So, I wouldn’t say I am a feminist, or progressive and never really was.
I can only assume you joined back when Dragon Crown originally came out and I weighed my opinion in on the poking mechanic. That was probably the most feminism I talked about for a while.

XIV’s a good game I hope you keep having fun with it :) Though if you’re worried about spoilers I should warn outside of the newest patch (and only for about 2 weeks) I don’t tag spoilers
Anonymous asked: final fantasy isn't 2d
1-6 (and tactics) are anon.
Her and Kan-E “bailing” on Raubahn was the best option. Them intervening could have been seen as an act of war (via assisting the alleged assassin of the queen and their alleged co-conspirato/actual murderer) and could have lead to the city states going to war against each other.
Which if that happened, or even if they’re was any form of discontentment due to them intervening at the banquet, Garlemald would jump on that shit like a fox in a chicken pen. We already know they have spies within Eorzea that they could use to destabilize the region.
Them leaving Raubahn was ultimately for the best because what would have happened if they tried to help him could have been much worse.
And in Merlwyb’s defense; she was ready to throw down but one of her guards jumped in front of her and was like “hey, let’s skedaddle” and I’m pretty sure the rest of them would have wrestled to the ground had she actually attempted to intervene.

Well, people are already dying their hair bright colors. It’s just the people who are doing it are generally not anime fans.
I doubt the latter will happen if anything you’d see a decrease in price.
I don’t know what porn your watching but all my pornstars are already 2d.
demonboy007 asked: People thirsted over Zenos?
…
*raises hand* H-He’s hot, ok?
wynndam asked: I think we all know the reason. Hell, I'm a Maelstrom player and even I'm like "Lol wtf is our leader's deal"
Honestly, I don’t know why she’s so against them exactly. Their are plenty of reasons to be because the beastmen can be shitheads themselves too. It’s not a one way street but she seems to not even want to try all that hard considering even when does try she’s just like “lol they weren’t gonna respect the treaty anyways might as well break it first”.
But, then there is the scene in 2.0 when Y’sholta is once again ineffectually chastising her where they make it seem like there is more to it then just her not liking beastmen. Maybe, there is some backstory stuff I’m not aware from 1.0 that explains it.

Normies get out of my anime
wynndam asked: Are you ready for merlwyb to FUCK EVERYTHING UP
Merlwyb’s already fucking everything up. Lady’s broke treaty with the kobold leading to titan, displaced a group of beastmen (Mamool’ja) from their homeland with no real way to support themselve so a lot have turned to banditry, and is questionably loyal is the Eorzean alliance.
Not to mention, straight up refuses to make peace with the kobold/sahagin because of reasons
Me: *banging on pots and pans* Square Enix bring back Merlwyb
Some twit: Errrr you see Merlwyb is actually really problematic and-
Me: *banging on pots and pans even louder* SQUARE ENIX BRING BACK MERLWYB PLZ
This post is pretty hilarious because the next time Merlwyb is gonna be relevant to the plot is probably when we head to the new world and then she’ll her most problematic.
Look no one has any room to judge after they thirsted over Zenos like god let me want my own favorite characters to be relevant again damn
Hey, nothin’ wrong with that. I’m just saying “be careful what you wish for” because your wishing on a monkey paw there.
(via emmeryn-whatcha-say)
Uh, Limsa being a dictatorship isn’t really what I was referring too. I was referring to all the terrible shit she’s done to beastmen lmao
There updated patreon and sent out info regarding left over rewards.Back to working on commissions and farming dungeon in ffxiv.
