Make it to Ishgard x3 is done 😤👌 speedrunning at 80 is my new favourite method for ARR patches, I did Mél from Thornmarch to entering Ishgard in two days. It takes a lot of additional effort to get there by reaching 80 first but it is so so so so worth it. Faye hit lv50 AST earlier so now I'll pivot to MCH... possibly double MCH, Mél needs a ranged. I wasn't originally going to give Faye MCH but an Ashe-Amélie daughter would carry a gun lbr, this is why they both have the bouncer holster trousers in half their glams.

I should bring Yorva through the end of ARR... but I may finally go back to Stormblood like, four months later. Woops. Pilgrim's Traverse is making me really want to play and gnaw on Shadowbringers again, and it's been like, three years since I have, so...

I think I'm mostly settled on how I want my OG Kallax to look with figures, minus a few that are not in there yet, either because they are on p/o or I need to pose them. I do this in stages by letting whatever I do sit a few days to see if I like it, so it takes a bit of time. I put the Mane Six across three cubes horizontal with two each and it looks really nice, though I'll try some different combinations once Rainbow gets here to see who looks best where. Applejack and Rarity together is non-negotiable though; this, too, is ouihaw...

I should probably look into lighting if I'm going to do that, though... this will probably have to be external somehow, because the acrylic inserts are very much flush. I will contemplate this alongside one of my kitchen lightbulbs I am still struggling to replace. I might have to abandon my preferred brand and try some independents with some more research. I'm also looking into potential tv benches since I'm still furniture kicking, though that might have to wait a bit for £££ reasons.

I've been working on some site maintenance I was endlessly asiding as a distraction for something, being changing filepaths on tributes so they link neatly to a folder for a page instead of bringing up the filetype - by which I mean, changing something from serah.farron.net/credits.php to serah.farron.net/site/credits. I did this for Control, Fire Emblem, and after two hours of fighting with the random image php script that was being picky, Serah - all tributes done now. I might try my fanlisting collective as well (and maybe fanlistings themselves?) although I too anticipate that breaking somehow, so not right now. Whilst I was doing that I also went through and added disclaimers of sensitive topics to get the children to leave... I drafted a list for Fray and Amélie and the first line of both is just "murder". Holding hands with healthy(?), entirely logical(??) grief coping mechanisms.

Lastly, added high protein lentil flour pasta to the accepted food list, hurray. (My body has been very upset after every dinner time but not for any specific reason or intolerance it seems, it just does that now.) this will help since all my protein options are fairly limited right now... I may try tomatoes again soon, since I feel like that may have been an onion misdirect... please let me have tomatoes again. 😭😭
