“In a good way… Praise for a job well done. Because I am not expecting it. I really don’t think I am that good. I try to do my best but I am still learning. I make mistakes all the time. Whether it be in handling a situation poorly or missing something entirely. So I often don’t feel I’ve done well enough to deserve that praise yet… It makes me happy anyways. It’s amazing to think someone thought I did good enough at something to deserve such praise.”
“Hmm. Amaze me in a good way… I would have to say seeing what the rest of Eorzea is like beyond the areas controlled by Ishgard. Seeing all these wonders I’ve been missing out on for so very long. There are so many beautiful places. An such a diversity of people.”
“I think it would depend on the sort of surprised you are asking about. If it is good I’m bound to react better to it then if it is bad. I can sometimes be a bit jumpy and tense if surprised while stressed out. Most of the time I’m probably just going to be staring wide-eyed at whatever surprised me though.”
“I would not suggest surprising me. My first instinct is to defend myself. Years as a knight can do that to a person. Especially when dealing with dragons and heretics. I would hate to harm someone because they choose to surprise me. If someone does I just hope they do it a distance away from me so they are not harmed.”
“My opinion on romance? Well considering I am married… I am not looking for romance. There is no need. I do still enjoy a good romance novel though. Just because I am taken doesn’t mean I can’t watch or read others enjoying their romances. As for my opinion on…” She looks away, cheeks stained pink with blush. “On Sex… My husband and I came to an agreement on that long ago. He doesn’t want to know what I decide to do in our long absences of seeing each other. Sex is just that. Sex. It doesn’t have to have emotions attached to it.”
“Romance? Sex?! Are such questions really necessary?” Lance looks surprised and a bit embarrassed by the question. He sighs softly an scratches his cheek. “I enjoy romancing a partner. Doesn’t everyone want a bit of romance in their lives? As far as the other question…” He takes a deep breath an thinks a moment on how he wants to answer this. “I would not just sleep with anyone. I’m not that sort of man. I want a deeper connection with that person. I want it to be special.”
(Okay this one I’ve been sitting on for a while cause the question itself was confusing me at the time. An going OOC just because I’m not feeling it for answering this IC. I’m answer this before the others in my box just because of how long it’s been in here. Sorry for the delay. ^^; I’m hoping I got myself unconfused on the question. Thanks for the ask @prettyboyantain)
(Her neck and shoulders. Especially with how she sometimes spends hours pouring over books for research.)
(His legs and arms. Always keeping himself ready in unfamiliar situations in case he needs to move to defend or attack as needed.)
(Okay the rest of the asks will have to wait till morning or maybe in a day. Depends how busy my day ends up being though I figure it will be a quiet day at home. I’m tired and it’s been an emotionally rough 24hrs.
On another note. Since it is now officially Nov 17th. Happy Birthday Destiney! We’ve turned another year older. If anyone wants to help us celebrate feel free to share happy pictures of your character(s). I could use the smiles. Elezen preferred but I’ll gladly accept any other happy characters too. Give me some happy smiles to wake up to in the morning.)
Work. She knew the dangers an pains of such work. She had done her fair share of odd jobs before finding her home among the Order. Her jobs were a bit more carefully selected now. At least any that she did on her own free time.
A frown crossed her features as he admitted why he was refusing her aid. It was a fine reason. She might have thought similarly had she not spent so much time around her current ’family’. Helping those who she had a feeling could not afford most people who would agree to help for a price. An what was wrong with just helping someone while asking for nothing in return on occasion. Nothing of course.
Before she could object though he had changed the subject. Clever. Obviously one used to dealing with faked smiles. Whether he was the one wearing them or just seeing through them, she didn’t know. A part of her wanted to deny it as she sometimes did. But she could make polite conversation to keep an eye on him. Last thing she wanted to was walk away an leave him to fend off anything in his state should something else pass by. The memories were not as sharp an jagged as they once were.
“A bit of both really. I met someone out here years ago. Well further northeast of here a bit. The circumstances that lead to our meeting… That’s the bad memory.” A sad smile as she thought about the incident. Her hand drifting up to her left shoulder. Fingertips resting over one spot in particular. The memory of an old wound though it never bothered her physically. Her uncle had done a good job repairing all the physical damage.
(I’m hoping I am understanding number 3 right lol. So forgive me if I’m not. For pronouns for Dest, it would be she/her. She’s bixsexual but still identifies as a female.)
“Oh… Three things that make me anxious? Hmm… Crowded places. I like to meet new people but I prefer the experience to be more… Private. Too many people makes me anxious and I’ll withdraw. Slimy things. I can’t stand the feeling. Like the other night at the FC house when J’siris brought a blue octopus from a fishing contest his sister won. I kept trying to get away from the kitchen but…” Dest narrows her eyes. “Oni dragged me over an then watched to make sure I wouldn’t leave… For a third… Being a healer. I’m always afraid I’m mess up or do something I shouldn’t. I’ve only a few years of experience under my belt.”
“As far as being in love. I have been. More then once. I still find people who I love. However it depends on the type of love you are asking about. There is more then one way to love a person. If you mean romantically then twice. If you mean something else then more times then I would bother counting. First was my husband. Then there was Leon. In the end I lost Leon to illness and married my childhood friend. Beyond that the other people I love are my friends and family.”
(While Lance is demisexual he still identifies as a male. So it would be he/him.)
“Dragons make me anxious. I’ve watched enough good men and woman die to flame and claw and teeth. But I do not let it stop me. I will not let someone’s death mean nothing. Noble lords and ladies as well. While I can function and behave appropriately, it does not mean I want to be in such situations to begin with. An third… dating. It has been years and I have spent so little time socializing since the fall of Steel Vigil that… I guess I am afraid of making a mistake or pushing for too much. Or causing the person who cares about me to worry because I have gotten so used to being so solitary.”
“Of course I have been in love. But love as a teenager compared to love as an adult… They are different. In the years since I had withdrawn an been married to my duty. The ladies my family tried to force upon me never caught my interests, I am seeing someone now though. I have not said the words yet… A part of me wishes to declare the words yet… I feel now is not quite the time either.”
