What Your Character Is Really Thinking

[ChaoticCrimson]

Back during the Kojin beast tribe quests...

Kojin: "Ah, Crimson! You've returned to offer some more aid to us! I have a job that's perfect for you!"
Crimson: "Hmm okay, let's hear it then."
Kojin: "Certainly! We have this ray here, and we'd like you to help him get some action... if you know what I mean."
Crimson: "Sure, sounds easy en- I'm sorry, you want me to do W H A T ? ? ?"

Slap alphinaud repeatedly whenever he spoke.
Kicked a few lala, esp the ones on the syndicate, or really any that passed by.
Buy Gerolt a bottle of the finest whiskey.
Force feed Rowena tomestones til the spilled out, so I would have more interesting ways of getting gear.
Teleported Zenos into the void for being one of FF more annoying antagonists
Free Tiamat.
Give the Scions and good bye diddly dye and run off with Emet Selch
but I would save Runar before the first collapsed because he is just awesome

[MaethusXion]

Seriously sick of fetch quests. Why don’t you talk to your own husband? He’s three feet away!

Company Belle: "Ah, fresh off your latest adventure, I suppose you are yearning for another quest. And, it just so happens I may have something that needs... fetching."

Maethus (Hyur version) : "This's why I never liked the theatre..."

Maethus (Hrothgar version) : "Wha... I'm... but..."

Makoto: "Your worthless husband made me cross the Twelve-damned ocean twice to give one of the most egotistical Lalafell a fake bottle of wine to get just an 'attagirl' as my reward. If you take the credit with one little piddly junk thing that took all of five minutes to make, I will drag you both to the top of Kugane Tower and throw both of your asses off. And heavens help you should an airship or boat or anything break your fall besides the water."

Yeah... I'm not fond of those two idiots either...

[Pepsi_Plunge]

Fetch-Quests, yeah. After ARR I was all like: "Here I am, the Warrior of Light, slayer of Primaels, destroyer of the Ultimate Weapon. I've rescued your bottom and this planet how many times now? And instead of giving me that much needed vacation you promised me quests ago, you want me to deliver presents to your friends? Are you kidding me? Can't you send a f'n Moogle or something?"

But then I did the Moogle-Postman-Questchain and came to terms with my fate. Even when it meant collecting literally cow dung in Stormblood...

Admittedly the reward for that quest line was 5 Cracked Clusters and 3 Cracked Crystals which was actually really decent if you were still in the Stormblood expansion. Crafter materia was worth a mint on the marketboards.

Up until Shadowbringers, because let's face it the NPC's were only as intelligent as the plot allowed them to be:


After Shadowbringers however, particularly after Ryne joined:

[Ntol]

Asahi staring up at my femroe from back then, more or less uttering threats. At some point, iirc, he points out that there's nothing I could do to him cause that would endanger the alliance. All I could think my chr would say is this:

"Asahi, I'm a 7'3 femroe with a big ass axe of the Titan variety on my back, clad in golden spiky hellfire armor and you have been left here alone. with. me. In this big, spaced out area where no one would hear or see anything that happened here. Do you really, REALLY, want to test me?"

Instead, my chr does the /aback emote and I'm just staring at the screen going "wot" -_-

Asahi: Mwahaha, you can´t lay a finger on me, otherwise the alliance you are striving to achieve will be imposible.
Me: Damn, he´s right.
Asahi: Oh, but wait, you just summoned a primal, so the alliance is impossible anyway.
Me: Er... did you just admit there´s nothing to prevent me from tearing you to pieces any longer? *cracks knuckles*

Enemy walks away slowly after a lost fight and mocks us.

"Are we SERIOUSLY letting him just walk away!?"

[Edax]

Enemy walks away slowly after a lost fight and mocks us.

"Are we SERIOUSLY letting him just walk away!?"

The Praetorium makes this cliché even worse because of how long the cutscenes are. He slowly walks up some stairs to reach the Ultima Weapon and we just let him instead of stabbing him 17 times in the back.

[KadaRemnant]

I think what people forget is our WoL have to eat and rest so we need money to do that.
Makes sense to have quests and sidequests like that.
Also most people don't know we are the WoL, but even if they do, we need to eat. Lol
Plus, it makes people happy and trust us.
So my Kira is sure sometimes annoyed and say can you do it yourself? But after seeing people smile and happy and a good reward, it make my WoL smile too.
