Because I am insane I happen to know *when* he got got: the most likely point is during the remembrance ceremonies, as when Biggs and Wedge come to see you in the solar, if you're eagle-eyed, you can spot the necklace in that cutscene
During early 2.0 Thancred only wore a white choker on his neck, and after he got posessed by Lahabrea, he wore a black crystal necklace underneath his white choker. And the necklace diappeared after Lahabrea left his body
wol walking around every new area in 7.1 trying to trigger an echo to find out how zoraal ja got pregnant out of sheer bafflement at how that could have happened
God. God. God. The moment she knows her path is aligned with that of her friend from the future. The moment she makes her choice, knowing what consequences it will bring. The eulogy she gives to the world of eld, before she ushers in its end.
i get so emotional thinking about the fact that venat would be so delighted that the bunnies she made to shepherd and safeguard the people of the star would get really into making the perfect rave party venue after the crisis was past
"all you learn about thancred to start with is that he's hot and you don't know him" is entirely true but i think that's fun because it speaks to him being a little more closed off than the others; you *don't* know much about him, he's good at controlling his image
I always liked this bit of the EW promo art because there's not a huge amount of official artwork of Thancred with Meteor and they're just... standing next to each other... just two lil' guys 🥰
HEY, FELLOW AU RA PLAYERS!
Are you, like me, not a huge fan of the proposed limbal ring change shown at UK FanFest? Good news! The devs have stated they are looking for feedback. You can chime in too! All you need to do is log on to the official forums and post in the thread ⬇️
lot of people not understanding redemption is not an endpoint or a deserved thing but a grueling path to be walked and a kind of transformative work that never ceases

shoutout to my brother playing botw for the first time, running out to the cliff at the beginning, asking me if it would damage link, then yeeting link off the cliff before i could answer
joe dempsie voices a character in the alliance raid and they were so like, we need to make the players emotional and cry again, and we also need them to be flustered and horny. can you do that for us? and he was like, bet
It's actually quite funny as this is common knowledge for a good few Thancred fic writers because of our particular malady and at one point a friend and I were quite literally combing thru these early cutscenes beat by beat to find the exact point of possession
Just remembered that Riol said he was going to the Meracydia or the New World in 6.0 epilogue which means we are very possibly seeing him somewhere in Tural
in relation to ffxiv because my brainrot is terminal: this is what ff as a whole gets, but ffxiv specifically not only *gets,* but *maintains* across 300+ hours of gameplay and story. it's about the love. without love, it cannot be seen
Ever since I read that Tales from the Shadows side story where Thancred consciously cleaned up his appearance to be a responsible guardian, I have such a soft spot for shb+ cred. I love all iterations but shbcred... I eats him right up, character growth, trying his best
saw a nice post on tumblr today--it's hard out here! but I hope for my fellow creatives this can be a balm, especially with how uncertain things are right now
I think it's very interesting, as Thancred was clearly working himself half into the grave to try to fill Louisoix's shoes, and I can't imagine the remembrance ceremonies had him feeling especially galvanized by the record of his efforts. Lahabrea picked a low point to nab him
i have so little patience for edginess and edgy stories these days because THIS is the kind of story that feeds my soul--where the darkness is real, but the joy and humor is, too. where grief is apparent, but so also is life afterward.
in darkness, seek joy.
With the benefit of hindsight you can see exactly how Lahabrea that decision is--clean and incisive, accurately targeting where he would do the most damage (Thancred is the Scions' spymaster/intel coordinator, after all). Love that connective tissue
gathering nodes, much like raid loot, can sense weakness. you cannot look directly at them while harvesting or they will know your intentions and deny you your quarry
to me shadowbringers is the best encapsulation of this: there are so many people around you, so many from the past and so many from the present, who despite your innumerable burdens and impossible task long for you to live. because they love you. because they love the world,
my friend just pointed out that if ultima thule is a world where only emotion is reality--she put this much more eloquently but like--thancred created a world that could sustain us. that was his earnest wish for us
"Aldera, darling... we haven't actually infiltrated the venue yet. The dress is *meant* to hug your figure."
"Bother that, I like being able to bloody *move!"*
I need to give him the world. I think also that this moment for him is very much more than “not having the will to live”- rather, his will to *let others continue living*, and specifically let the WoL live, was a more powerful will than Meteion’s despair. Our first sign—
every day i think about meteion greeting the scions to ultima thule and as everyone collapses she says "those with the will to live cannot survive here" and then the camera immediately cuts to thancred taking a step forward
@damahysk
created the most beautiful theme for my sweet Aldera!!! A song for a stoic but warm dark knight who overcame a bloody past to become a beloved hero, unbroken despite unimaginable trials, who journeys onward with her loved ones...! I couldn't be happier! It's stunning!
oh if a lot of people are going to be doing hildibrand i need you all to know my crackpot hildy headcanon and it's that him and nashu have been married for years
and that they do not know they are married
godbert and julyana handled the paperwork as a way to look after nashu
