Hey Ocarina! Cucco took down Edgelord Thancred down tonight ( ◕‿◕✿) !! Huge thank you to Mar Sensei and Kaede-chan again to help fill in for our group. We were struggling a bit on cycles last week, so the callouts were helpful as practice!
Going to start out with some little shenanigans in our raid chat. I usually ping the group to remind them about raid night and we check in with our roles emote. SOMEBODY *cough RARE* also selected my WHM emote, hence I said "2 WHMs".
Hours later, I see we got 6 WHMs checking in for raid??? GUESS WE WANT TO RAID AS ALL WHITE MAGES, I SEE! We could bene each other, no problem....right!? LOL omg you guys ♥
Anyway, tonight was pretty good!! We were pretty consistent in getting to the last cycles for E11S. Our first pull we got to 9% and everything was very ouch, but we managed!
And of course, clear group shoooooot (๑°꒵°๑)･*♥
Here's my POV clear video, whoo!
Then we got played a little in E12S, here's our little introduction to the fight HAHAHAHA
I'll end tonight's post with Das trying to solo the boss on his own ᕦ( ᐛ )ᕤ
Hey everyone, hope Monday treated you okay! I'm running out of things to watch and I'm kind of sad. Jujutsu Kaisen, Attack on Titan, Beastars 2, and Wonder Egg Priority are releasing their last episode this week (or second last episode). I did start on One Piece with Sas and currently on episode 105, sooo, we got 900+ episodes to go!
And yes, I adore Chopper the most (⁄ ⁄•⁄ꇴ⁄•⁄ ⁄)⁄!!!! I like Zoro, Nami, and Luffy so far, but I absolutely hate Usopp... I don't even know why he exists.
Speaking of existance, Yashahime shouldn't have existed. I cannot believe the mangaka made Sesshomaru a groomer... like holy shit, please don't. If you know what I mean, yes, I'm confirming the relationship to be 100% true. I don't care for the other characters like Inuyasha x Kagome's daughter is a complete jobber and Sesshomaru's daughters are useless.
This was the last episode... ರ╭╮ರ I THINK they actually went to outer space and chopping up moons...???
Promised Neverland also became garbage. I was already unimpressed with the manga and the main characters, but my god, the anime reached a new level of bad. I was really hoping to see Goldy Ponds arc but we're not even getting that... so goodbye Bayon and Leuvis. MISSED OPPORTUNITY FOR SEASON 2, I'M TELLING YOU ಠ_ಠ
I dunno, the demons were far more interesting, I really like Bayon's design.
Then there's Leuvis with his pet monkey, my favourite character in the entire mangaaaaa.
He's so creepy cool like omg, kill those children, kill those nasty children d(>∇<)/ If you cannot tell, I was rooting for the demons in this entire arc.
Enough of my rant, I'll end today's post with two Beemo pics, enjoy!
Hey Ocarina, hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. I'm a little behind on my FFXI blogging, so I'm going to try to do some catch up this month! There's some new things for us to do, and when I mean by "us", it's usually just me, Sas, and Geir ( ◕‿◕✿) I'm starting on a new expansion because I need to unlock Odin for gears, so I can't wait to finish that up and drag Geir and Sas into it!
I finished Chains of Promanthia a little while ago and I'm going to post my personal opinion on it later. The expansion was kind of long, so I did end up taking a little break from doing more MSQs.
Here's me fighting Bahamut, and yes, I end up doing the epilogue stuff. I haven't fought him the second time yet because I am being distracted with other things on FFXI, will get there soon though! This dragon boi is so big though, so all I could hit was his feetsies.
Geir, Sas, and I did some Vagary boss fights. This boss was a little scary, but the other ones felt underwhelming? Or maybe we're just too good ( ´ ▽ ` )b
Found a Galka and Mithra wearing the dumb Mandragora hat omg and the Taru wearing a bomb hat. I still think these hats suit Tarus the best, change my mind.
Of course, here are some scenery shots from FFXI!
I'll end tonight's post with Sas murdering us all. Basically the mini-boss took Sas' big hit, and in a way, it "reflected" that damage to the entire party.
Hey Ocarina, how goes it? Today is a random blog post because I like to ramble about random things. So let's get started!
I wanted to bring Beemo to go see some cherry blossoms this year, but we will have to wait for next year, since we still have a lockdown and it hasn't been lifted yet. Good job to Canada's Prime Minister for fucking up our vaccinations, you're the best.
Speaking of cherry blossoms, Japan Starbucks literally have the best merchandises. Look at some of their goods!!! Well okay...yes these designs are totally up my alley so I'm biased ಥ_ಥ but c'mon, they're pretty, are they not!?
ಥoಥ I would loooove to have this double wall glass!!!
They also made small plates (for side dishes) during the new years. Like, I cannot, these are so cuteeee. If I saw them in person, I would've fought the crowd to grab myself a box...well I'll try but I probably would lose terribly.
This daruma cup, it's everytttthinnng. I'D TOTALLY GET THIS CUP!!!
If you are interested in purchasing these (although most are sold out), click on the link below:
You'll notice the prices are ridiculous because these prices are doubled. They're considered "collectable" items...so the site decided to over charge us baka gaijins. I have seen this site being advertised by other YouTubers before, so it seems legit, but I dunno about paying a hefty price on cups... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Recently, I've been seeing a trendy coffee drink, and it's called Dalgona coffee. Has anyone tried it before? When I watched a tutorial in how to make it...it looked like a lot of work for just a cup of coffee omg but here's the tutorial:
You can whisk the instant coffee by hand but it will take you like 5+ minutes to prep. If anyone is bored enough to attempt this, I'll try it with you and we can share reviews/photos on Discord ( ´ ▽ ` )b
And that's all for now folks, I'll end the post with some ugly Beemo photos, enjoy!
Happy weekend Cucco fam! How is everyone doing? Don't forget, if you're interested, there is a Seiryu doggo farm tomorrow night. Be sure to check Discord for time and hope you can make it. Tonight will be a quick XIV update - mostly random stuff and a bit on raid progression!
I was talking to Kaede-chan one night about orchestrions and how I'm still missing some. The one that I actually tried to farm on my own few months ago was Lost City of Amdapor HM, but RNGesus was never on my side. Anyway, she decided to run the dungeon on her own and got the scroll...FOR ME ಥ╭╮ಥ She was blessed and got the scroll on her first run, but still!!!! Thank you for gifting me it!!
I was doing some shopping for some cheap raid mats because I cannot be bothered with gathering anymore; especially with Levinstrikes aethersands. Time = Money. Limsa is always full of interesting things, like this melting giant piggie, for example. I guess I was amused at how his piggie head is going through the floor LOL
Few days ago, I went to go visit Esra + Ria + Neru! Ria resubbed and I believe she only subbed for a month. Nonetheless, welcome back girl (*´∇｀)ﾉ!! She's currently playing catch up with the MSQ and she's thirsty for Lyse.
This was almost a perfect screenie of us three :'3 ah well!
Quick update with raid, but first, let me share some screenies that I took of others while waiting for people to gather. Here's a ninja shot of Rare and look at him rocking that O12S tank top... I really want that top too (´；ω；`) some day!!
Das practicing his DNC rotation before raid, look at him go!!
The dabbers LOL
Couldn't decide which screenie to use because I like both of them!! Rare and Das are sharing one umbrella, how cute is that? Kaede-chan and I got the blue umbrellas.
Then Das and Rare are being matchy matchy with their umbrellas hehe (◠‿◠✿)
Speaking of raid though, we did make progress (yatta!!) and it was also amusing. This clip covers all three points:
#1) Geir got so happy about prog that he didn't notice the elemental break
#2) Me just thinking it's always up-time for Turn of the Heaven II
#3) We started panic running and died horribly during the first half of Turn of the Heaven II
