This achievement isn't unique but I'm so gd proud of myself for not giving up, even when I wanted to. Life has been HARD these past 2 years. That I made it is a testament to my ability to perservere, honestly! To push through life while in pain to find joy from all of the suffering in a silly game.

My character from Final Fantasy XIV! He is wearing a set of gradient blue wings adorned with neon blue spheres of light. The trailing aspect are 3 almost reptilian-looking hooked tails; and the wings flap with a dark black and blue hazy aura.

My character from Final Fantasy XIV! The last wing set I got that I had to buy: the wing arms are grayish-white with glowing neon violet feathers. This set of wings is based off a train boss, with copper accents and a silly smokestack on top!

My character from Final Fantasy XIV! These wings are violet and vibrant scarlet - my character's color scheme! The wings are adorned with colorful jewelry and the trailing part is 3 spooky tentacles. There is a V-shaped crown on top featuring a roaring lion face and a screaming human face: this is the same as the boss's scepter!

My character from Final Fantasy XIV! This is a set of wings that comes with 6 wings like a classic seraph. They are a simple white and gold, and they shimmer in the sun. You get these from collecting the other 7 pairs, which is no small feat to do while the content is current! 2 years of grinding. They are reminiscent of the sun.

A QUESTION FOR MEEEE OMGG Chiteni is a hooded crow!!! They are gray and black and I always describe his wings as crow wings! And they have a lot of Irish folklore ties, which circles back to me personally!

A hooded crow. It is a fairly large bird with black wings, tail, and head with a soft gray crest.

My Final Fantasy 14 character! He has gray skin and big black wings, similar colors to the hooded crow!

Chi@chibast· 23d

He is my heart please gaze upon him 🖤

A screenshot of my character from Final Fantasy 14. He has the micro crow minion on his shoulder and is smiling at it fondly, the location he's standing in is drenched in red and purple neon hues.

A screenshot of my character from Final Fantasy 14. One of my favorites! I was trying out new outfits at the time.
He is holding a bubble wand smiling at the colorful bubbles in a room with a beautiful golden glow.

The first one was my very first message to my bff where we talked about how much we loved mooncat fangs and she asked to see mine for the first time. The second is from a few minutes ago just bc I really wanted another picture while I was FATE grinding LOL How we change but stay the same!

A picture of my character from Final Fantasy XIV! He is in a plain white shirt with his back to the camera in a black void. Another version of him is speaking, hair obscuring their face as they smile slightly. They are saying: "But know that when you tire of this charade, I shall be here...waiting to take the reins..."

A picture of my character from Final Fantasy 14. This picture has him kitted out in high-tech gear with glowing cyan hues. He is flying, one of the wings on his back in the foreground and wrapped around the edge of the camera.

His MSQ outfit is exclusively a blue one - the ONLY blue outfit I use. And it follows a theme more like his origins as a character. There have been a few iterations over the years, but the one on the right is ShB/EW, and left is DT/EC. These are what he wears canonically during the MSQ!

My character from Final Fantasy 14. He's wearing black leather with dark red straps and blue undertones. The outfit has lots of buckles, belts, pounches, and pockets. Perfect for adventuring!

My character from Final Fantasy 14 in another one of his 'blue' outfits. He's wearing light leather armor with gold trim and black fur on the shoulders. It looks very lightweight for a tank-style character, but one can assume he doesn't care for armor.

Chi@chibast· Jul 10

I think this question is interesting, bc my WoL sort've has a very 'split' identity that is unique to the way I think? Purple Chiteni you'll see the most. This is when I'm playing him as my character. When he isn't separate from myself in any way - so while I'm grinding or raiding for ex.

My Final Fantasy 14 character in one of his 'purple' outfits. He's wearing a purple jacket with a black undershirt & holding a taco. He seems a bit exasperated at something off-screen.

I use these 'purple' outfits casually and I don't consider them really canon. It's more me expressing how I'm feeling through him on any particular day - my excuse to dress him up however I like.

Chi@chibast· Jul 8

As far as colors go he is super tame, but I'm happy the lighting updates have made him feel less white and more like the gray he is. I really don't know why I picked this color. I was depressed so he got the depressed person skintone I suppose LOL But boy is it hard to dress a gray-skinned person.

A screenshot of my Final Fantasy 14 character! He has violet hair with berry-red highlights and soft gray skin. He seems pretty unhappy or suspicious about something off-camera, his mismatching lavender and red eyes narrowed.

Chi@chibast· Jul 8

I always feel uncomfortable participating in posts like these bc he is a very plain gray and looks like, typical white while on his own. But he is gray I'm tired of treating him like he doesn't look like a corpse!!! That's my boy in the cutscene! The one who looks cold and dead!!! 🖤

My character from Final Fantasy 14! He has just plain old gray skin and he's wearing some black and purple techwear with neon cyan and orange accents in a purple and blue sci-fi setting. He has a microphone on his ear and black wings on his back.

Here is a longer post for that nasty conversation where they happily imply that - maybe Azem should just pick a gender already (male by context lol) - suggesting ppl only make girls in MMOs bc they’re pretty (not bc that’s your gender ofc) - deciding that Emet cannot fuck women (he has a son)

Yuki
“honestly?? big agree, I can't see emet kiss a woman
and it doesn't help that most of the emetgirlies i saw had been awful trying to not to judge people for doing their own happy thing but some bits feel forced
especially when it boils down to 'i can fix him' no pussy won't fix him”
J (Jay)
“yeh
i have a theory that doesn't even have to do with ideology”
Yuki
“probably doesn't help the vague azem-gender but TBH
the girls were WILD even before azem”
J (Jay)
“that mmo girls are what everyone makes by default bc girls are prettier, have better gear and animations in games. i made two female wols before finding out that xiv is a gay dating sim. then i made Vivi. but i reckon other people just stick around with their og wols that are female? wishing them all a very transition”
Yuki
“oh yeah, i know too many men that play girls”
J (Jay)
“+ doesn't help that Emet had two big, massive artists that are het shippers. paragons of hetslop”
Yuki quoting J (Jay)+ “doesn't help that Emet had two big, massive artists that are het shippers…”
Yuki
“ah, good point
did not know that actually”
J (Jay)
“Nipuni and Jackdu, their art's very good but ill never support it because of het”
Yuki
“honestly het stuff wouldn't be that bad if it didn't feel forced 90% of the time and then people jump at your throat about a queer ship because "hurr durr they barely interacted!" well your het ship has no chemistry but sure, my silly gays are the problem”

Chi@chibast· Jun 8

For those of you who are STILL somehow following @fragments.gay Uh, just stop doing that LOL Look at this petty asshole. Watch out if you enjoy both men AND women you’re obviously the enemy LMAO

An incredibly awful and petty message from @fragments.gay’s twitter account. After going on about how he just wants to express love he is wishing misery upon others saying: “thank you to the 25 (so far) people who shared this, you're cool and help me find new readers. those who only leave a like, i hope one day you find yourself heavily relying on other people for something, and no one helps you.”
What a nice guy (sarcasm)

A screenshot of a discord chat in which someone says: “Nipuni and Jackdu, their art's very good but i'll never support it because of het” as if men and women hooking up is the worst thing in the world.

Chi@chibast· Jun 4

Kefka from Final Fantasy 14 agrees with OP wholeheartedly. Maybe a bit too much agreement. Please OP be careful this man will steal your tips. He doesn’t need more self-esteem!!!

Chi@chibast· Jun 4

I love that baky lets me prove it, too.

The aforementioned account with its posts hidden. The tags say I have muted the account, but that the owner has blocked me. Can’t say I blocked them as a defense!

Chi@chibast· Jun 4

Lol unfollow @fragments.gay he will block you for such gentle criticisms as this and for doing things such as: - requesting alt text - suggesting straight men can be a little foppish - thinking Emet could be ace/straight/bi - being a fan of his comic but not having played Shadowbringers (lol)

A post blocked by the owner of the Fragments Final Fantasy 14 fan comic criticizing their hateful conduct after they insist they are only spreading love. It reads:
“Share that love and not the hate then. I saw your posts. That is biphobia. We are all capable of it and you need to look in a mirror. We all have a great capacity for good as much as evil, and queers don’t need to be pretending our specific form of queerness is the ‘correct’ one. Love and acceptance.”

Really heavy-handed, block-worthy criticism I suppose.

Chi@chibast· Jun 2

✨️Qrp with your Pride Flags✨️ I’m asexual! It’s not a shock if you know me well haha I’m biromantic too, and my genderfluidity took me some time to figure out! But the boot fits.

So I’ve been working all of Dawntrail to get all of the wing mounts! I only started taking specific pics of each one with Zoraal Ja’s wings, but I’ve been taking pics ever since! My journey finally ended last night, but I cant post the final sets yet as I did not win Doomtrain’s. Soon!

A screenshot from Final Fantasy 14. A foggy evening shot of the ruins around Camp Bronze Lake in La Noscea. My character is just to the right with the wing mounts from Valigarmanda Extreme: white, pine green, and red-orange wings that sparkle with fire, ice, and lightning.
It took 21/99 kills to win the drop for these.

A screenshot from Final Fantasy 14. I took this in Kozama’ouka for some reason, and my character is in an older glam I was trying out for Dawntrail. The wing mount in this shot has a dark blue aura, and the wings are blue-black with bioluminescent reptilian feathertips, a long lizard-like tail, and a hollow golden crown. Fitting for the empty man the crown represents.
It took 77/99 kills to win the drop for these.

A screenshot from Final Fantasy 14. My character back in his classic glam! I was trying out stickers and the new chromatic aberration setting in the photo mode. It’s a colorful shot taken by the Meso Terminal statue in Living Memory backed by a clear blue sky. The wing mount here is from Queen Eternal’s bossfight: they are a pearlescent metallic white with glowing minty green feathers, glitch effects, and a ‘tail’ made of long wires. In contrast to Zoraal Ja’s empty crown, the crown here is golden and full, with rays of golden ‘light’ coming off the center. Suited to the woman it represents.
It took all 50/50 kills and I had to buy these wings with totems.

A screenshot from Final Fantasy 14. This shot was taken in Treno - I loved the lighting there. The violet, gold, and crimson colors were SO pretty! This is also the debut of my new MSQ glam! This wing mounts is metallic red with pearly white feathers and copper-colored ‘engine’ feather decals on the wing-arms. There’s a matching broadsword on the back and a flowing cape behind, and each flap of the wings rains sparkling rose petals.
This one took me the entire 99/99 kills to buy with totems, and I never saw the wings drop once! But I love Zelenia’s fight, by far my favorite extreme!

Chi@chibast· May 10

Adv plate time? I love adv plates!!!!

An adventurer plate from Final Fantasy 14. It has a starry theme with a lot of blues, purples, and pinks. The description reads: “To be more alive, I had to be less afraid.”

Chi@chibast· Mar 27

People looking at and making fun of the new PS5 prices while embracing and complimenting the Switch 2 for being $500. Y'all. The disc drive PS5 was $500 too. It was considered too expensive even for the time. By embracing the S2 at $500, you're normalizing this. It's why it's being done.

Chi@chibast· Mar 17

My boy Granson really soaking up this sunbeam while I grind some relics on Phaenna. I'd say it was a relaxing day if awful things would just stop happening, but I find those posts where ppl say that so...hard to empathize with. It's been a decent day for us though, trying to appreciate the moment.

I started playing Pokemon Sleep to see if I could be more consistent with my bedtime (it's working, I hate seeing them tired) and of all the Pokemon I've caught this guy is my fav ♡ His name is Bear. He can give energy to others on my team and I assume it's bc HE just wants to sleep more. Relatable

Screenshot from Pokemon Sleep. It is a Slowpoke fast asleep. His name is Bear!

I keep forgetting to post this but I made a Red Hot alt to do MSQ with a friend (he skipped the entire story in like, a month & a half lmao) but anyway he's a little guy and a huge fan of the bigger guy. His name is Chili Pepper 🌶 The 'bo is Cheep Blue 🌊

A player character from Final Fantasy 14 based on a boss named Red Hot. He has something similar to a bowl cut that comes down over his eyes and he's wearing a beach outfit. He has a blue chocobo chick wearing a lifesaver hopping next to him as they sit on a bed.
He has 2 little shark weapons for his fists colored like Red Hot's transformed boss form.

Chi@chibast· Jan 27

I love being free to write what I want about my WoL with no judgement - he even has a fan or two! He and my alt helped me understand more about my own gender identity and became a bridge to be with my friends when my life was at its hardest. I love him dearly for being part of my expression to them

A screenshot of a character from Final Fantasy 14. He sits cradled in a sparkling yellow moon, eyes closed and relaxing.

Chi@chibast· Dec 21

Well here is my recipe if it interests you! There are conversions you'd have to make but they are very fresh and light! As an American we always think like...if it's bad for you already, a little worse won't hurt LMAO

Thai coconut lime curry with sweet potatoes & chicken sausage, cranberry jelly fixins, homemade lemon blueberry muffins, and paprika barramundi with brown butter lemon sauce, potatoes, and garlic broccoli ♡

Chi@chibast· Dec 18

I am incredibly happy with my new MSQ glam and I will be very pleased to wear it in future patches!!! I've been trying to change his outfit for years, but as a tank main the pickings were slim if you didn't like heavy armor.

Chi@chibast· Dec 18

Very in love with the new Starlight emote, I LOVE warm holiday drinks ♡ And yes I started in Ul'dah! Was a pugilist, hilariously - and monk is still one of my favorite DPS jobs. #gpose #vanilla #ffxiv #ChiteniKha

My character from Final Fantasy 14. He's in his house by a warm light sipping a decorative cup of spiced holiday punch. He seems relaxed and content.

Chi@chibast· Dec 11

I've been wound up so tightly lately. Life's incredibly hard - every single day I'm moments from having a breakdown. I've never been more stressed in my life But I have friends who have been trying to hold me up. You're not on bsky, but I love you. Merry Christmas, y'all #gpose #vanilla #ChiteniKha

My character from Final Fantasy 14. He is sitting on a bench in the snow; warm light from a lamp to the left casts an orange glow as now gently falls. His head is tilted upwards, eyes closed. Grateful for the peace, perhaps.

Gotta be wassail 🍎♨️ Smells like apples, cranberries, cinnamon, cloves, ginger 💜

My character from Final Fantasy 14! He's a purple-haired guy with cat ears and fangs, and he is armed with a bubble wand. He seems pretty happy about it - surrounded by those pretty bubbles.

A cup of wassail! Wassail is a spiced, mulled cider: filled with cranberries, cinnamon, cloves, ginger, oranges, and other spices.
It's typically served warm, and in the image it is garnished with some spruce needles, cranberries, an orange slice, a cinnamon stick, and a pod of star anise.

I am so ready for the glamour changes! As a tank player, I really am not a fan of heavy armor. It's made it difficult to find things to wear for MSQ that I still think suit Chiteni & the world. I can't wait to have access to all the yummy striking/scouting/aiming pieces! #ChiteniKha
