in the last place they ever wanted to return to, sunyaev discovers they aren't as alone as they thought they were.

my first gpose comic. takes place during the lvl 50 drk quest "the wages of mercy." cw: dehumanizing language in flashback

#gpose #gposers #gposecomic #sidwol #sunyposting

(1/3)

Two dark knight au ra standing in Whitebrim with a backdrop of the snowy ground and a barren tree. Sunyaev is seen from the back, leaning back as though startled. Sidurgu is facing the camera has his arms folded and is saying his canon line "...I pray you do not make a habit of following men plotting to kill you into secluded areas." The text box is of standard FFXIV style and has the label ??? in the speaker's name area.

Side shot of Sunyaev with a background of the starry sky above whitebrim. Because of their helmet, only their mouth is visible, with a shocked expression. Four thought textboxes run down the starry area, saying
1) "That's--" in italics, left aligned
2) "That can't be--" in italics, can't bolded, right aligned
3i) "--there was n o t h i n g left but ash," in italics, spaced out nothing and ash in bold
3ii) The third thought box is surrounded by four black thought textboxes at angles - snippets of memory from the brutal flashback they are having. The two on top are in white text and say "Sunyaev, run--" with run in slightly larger text, and "Don't come out 'til I come for you--" The bottom two are in red text and say "Death to dragons and their consorts--" and "Don't let it get away--"
4) "...but..."

Same as previous shot but a slightly closer zoom on Sunyaev's face. Single text box in the starry area, saying "...S-Sid? Sidurgu?" The full Sid in the stuttered version is italicized."

Half body shot of Sid, who has placed his hand on the handle of his sword. His face is suspicious. Textbox, now with the label Sidurgu, says "...how do you know my name? Did Fray--"

everyone should read this 👁️👁️

"You can give someone who relies on SNAP a store-specific gift card...that can only be used to make purchases at Kroger...at Walmart...at Albertson’s — and it will not be counted against them by the SNAP program."

I firmly believe, with every single atom of my being, that instead of amplifying unreliable information that discourages helping, our focus as 42 million Americans face hunger must be on providing factual information that enables people to help.

IN THE MIDDLE OF THIS THE GAME TELLS ME I HAVE LESS THAN A MINUTE REMAINING TO FINISH THE MISSION.

i use innovation.

i pray.

i hit hasty touch.

IT GOES THROUGH! THE QUALITY BAR TURNS RED FOR MAX QUALITY ACHIEVED!

WITH MY FINAL 1-2 DURABILITY I USE BASIC SYNTHESIS & FINISH THE CRAFT.

I WIN!!

beck @ SKELETON WITH 30 GUNS @astahfrith.bsky.social · 1h

but wait. i have to be sure. i check the calculations window. NO. an unbuffed basic or hasty touch only gives 375 quality! i will fail by 10! (this mission is 100% or nothing)

i have to use innovation and then throw myself on the mercy of hasty touch’s 60% success rate.

let me set the scene: i have 11 or 12 durability left & 16 CP. i can use ONE quality skill & then i have to finish the craft. i have 385 quality to go. i use 14 CP on observe & get a lucky good proc & get 20 CP back from tricks of the trade. now i have enough CP to use basic touch instead of hasty…

BY THE GRACE OF ONE SUCCESSFUL HASTY TOUCH PROC, I AM A STELLAR ASTRONOMER!

beck @ SKELETON WITH 30 GUNS @astahfrith.bsky.social · 1d
