♥ – Is there an opponent they’ve fought they’ve grown particularly attached to, love or hate?

“Well if we’re talking about fist fights then I guess you could say Ilan and Ulan. Fighting them is always a good time. If we’re talking about fights were no one is going to die but still get good and bloody, then Anata hands down. We beat each other bloody but I can always expect a good challenge. But I don’t think you mean something like the Gin Mill fights or my spars with Anata. If we’re talking life or death matches… Lancefer.”

(Lance and Alex used to fight in bar brawls back to back. Then Lance went to kill him for entirely good reasons, leaving the scar on Alex’s face. He does care about his old friend and is still attached to him. Nearly getting himself killed twice for Lance.)

“I don’t… Particularly like Nathaniel but… He is a good opponent to fight. Raiden on the other hand I do like and he is a challenge worthy of facing. It gives me something to strive for. Someone worth trying to defeat.”

War and Combat Asks

Shield (For Lance), with Tsirae. Ishgardian bros :D

The skies looked overcast, a promise of snow. Not that it was anything different for Coerthas.

The wyvern was likely a remanent of Nidhogg’s horde. The shift had been light on knights for duty tonight. After all things had been quiet since the end of the dragonsong war. Of course Lance just had to be the lucky one to be on duty when someone called out a warning about the presence of a wyvern.

Lance wasn’t one to back down from a wyvern. No matter the scars still left from the Steel Vigil. He swallowed that pain and went forth to meet the foe outside of Skyfire. He was a knight of Ishgard and would not stand by while a wyvern attacked.

Sword and shield drawn and ready to face down the threat as he approached. Rolling to avoid the clawed talons that came at it. Turning to find someone else had run into the fight as well. The armor wasn’t exactly the first thing he could place to one of the Houses. Definitely not while in battle. The sword had met the incoming jaws that had been going for Lance while he was moving to his feet. It was looking at the man’s face that Lance realized he knew this armored man.

“Tsirae! Left!” Lance called out, hoping for the knight to shift left. Giving Lance the opening to lunge with his sword towards the wyvern’s exposed belly. Between the two of them the wyvern wouldn’t stand a chance. They might not work together with serving different houses but there was a certain amount of understanding between knights usually. Especially knights from Ishgard. It helped that Lance trusted Tsirae.

(Thanks! @ffxivaltaholic )

A few days of quiet then a collection of small sticks appeared in the ledge. They were arranged in a somewhat abstract manner.

Okay… Now he was confused. Still paranoid but now confused. What did a bunch of random arranged sticks have to do with the rest of the items. Making a rough sketch of the pattern they were left in before brushing them off the ledge. Well he did keep one. Likely to ask Sanagi what type of bush or tree they might have come from.

“Okay this is just getting bloody weird now…” Alex grumbled as he placed the sketch and single stick on the counter to deal with later. Another check on all the locks and traps. Even the hidden throwing blades.

Two days later a small link from a suit of chain mail appeared on the ledge.

A third item… Now he was beyond paranoid and more angry then anything. He was beginning to put together what the hints were now. First a rose. Then a green thread. Now this… A small piece from chainmail armor. Clearly someone had to be hinting about House Haillenarte.

“Seven hells….” He didn’t think someone would find him all the way down near Limsa of all places when he left Ishgard for good. Should have known better though. Not like he had been very subtle with his crimes against Haillenarte. Storming outside, not caring if residents thought he looked like a madman right now. He had something worth fighting for here. Not like when he lived in Ishgard.

“Don’t know who the hells you think you are! Stop hiding you coward!” Shouting as he hurled the small chain link. “I’m right here! Come and face me!”

The next day Alex would find a single green thread placed where the rose had laid.

“…”

First a rose. Now a green thread. Surely it couldn’t just be chance. Not in the exact same spot. Poking the thread with the tip of a throwing knife just to be safe before picking it up off the ledge. He tossed it onto the counter with a scowl towards it. Surely someone was messing with him. Hopefully? It made him even more paranoid now that it was two days in a row and different items. Whoever was messing with him was making him angry.

“Blood coward. If this is your way of sending me a message, just come out an say it.” Muttering the words as he once more checked all the locks and traps. For now he planned to keep the thread till he figured out what the message was and who was sending it. Going to sharpen his knives he kept hidden about the apartment.

(XD This is making him so paranoid and I’m dying laughing at my poor boy. <3)

There’s a single rose sitting on the window ledge of Alex’s apartment, what is the first through that goes though his head?

“What in seven hells…”

Alex frowned and looked around after spotting the rose. It wasn’t something Sana would have left was it? He hated roses. Reminded him of one of the High Houses of Ishgard. Not to mention how had someone gotten it onto his window ledge. Only a few people knew where he officially stayed. Finding something from the kitchen to scoop the rose up with, not trusting to touch it. For all he knew it was someone out to get him. He had enough enemies. Then proceeding to double check the locks and few traps he kept hidden about the place. The rose was promptly dumped outside into the ocean once he was satisfied.

(Thanks for the ask. XD Roses remind Alex of House Haillenarte. That happens to be one of the High Houses that want him arrested for murder and other crimes.)

Alex ❤️: ♜ :Post-kill actions, thoughts, or emotions

(Got to answer this one OOCly. Alex will -not- discuss his feelings so openly. Not unless you are someone he trusts. He doesn’t trust a lot of people.

For Alex is depends on who he just killed and why. The more personal the kill the more he suffers for it. There are many kills he doesn’t think twice about. Killing doesn’t often bother him. It’s a part of life. The strong survive and the weak die.

Though if it is like the Slavers he was hunting the other week… That was a little more personal because he ended up friending Virae. The Slavers were tied to ones who had abused her. It hit a little too close to home for Alex. He was angry and hurt. It reminded him too much of his own past and that left him reeling a bit. It left him feeling very raw and vulnerable. Which makes him seem hostile and cold to even friends because he doesn’t like to be seen as weak.)

(Thanks for asking! @rinoasdream )

♞ :Define a good kill

“Seven hells… A bastard who truly deserves to bleed out at my hands. Slavers. Corrupt Ishgardian highborns.” A simple shrug of his shoulders as he lights a smoke, smirking. “No one deserves the fate those bastards make people suffer. I ain’t no good guy and it takes a monster to kill one. So I’ll be their worst nightmare.”

(Thanks for asking! @wayward-whelpling )

♚ :A time when you showed mercy

Alex huffs softly and looks away. Arms crossed over his chest with a clear frown on his face. “Not often. I’m not exactly a man of mercy. Most of the time. I guess… The time I didn’t kill the waste of life that is my father. My half-brother’s mother was begging and pleading for his worthless life. I guess you can say I spared him only because neither of us had the life we wanted. Not my father. My half-brother. We both suffered cause of him but… His mother seemed to care where mine never did. I never knew him but I guess one can consider this my way of acknowledging him and the fact we both had to deal with this worthless sperm donor of a father.”

Thaliak the Scholar:  How important is education to your character? 

“Very important. I am a healer and a member of a team that does odd assorted jobs to help others. Having the knowledge to be able to deal with patients that need non-aetherical healing or knowing the information about a region. Those are important. So education is definitely a big thing for me.”

Byregot, the Builder:   Does your character have any constructive hobbies? 

(Already answered this question earlier. XD Just noticed it was on here too. This is what happens when I forget to answer things in my box for so long.)

Oschon the Wanderer:  Does your character ‘go with the flow’ or do they tend to follow their own path? 

“I would say I am a little of both depending upon the situation.”

(Thanks! @divine-ruin XD Sorry for taking so long with these.)
