It’s Not Over ‘Til the Cat Lady Sings.

Briefly, I would like to address comments on my last post. Nowhere did I say I was defending this that or the other. If you want to go make your snippy comments, go post them on Kaeko’s blog. Despite how it happens, I am allowed to “grieve” for the loss of my companions in this game. The point was not whether they were in the right or the wrong. I was saying goodbye to them, not inviting wimps hiding behind what they think is anonymity to try and pass their judgment on people they obviously know nothing about.

Moving forward.

For some reason, whenever I have taken an extended break from the game, it does seem that without fail, the first thing I shall do when I come back to game is Dynamis. This time around, it was Windurst, and after spending ages making sure I had WHM ready to go, I was asked to come RDM. Go figure. :)Nothing major to report, just Windurst. I did get lost like usual at one point after I had needed a potty break. Had a pretty decent amount of drops, so weird to see things people waited and waited and waited for drop like, two or three times in the run. Had a pretty wide array, DNC, SCH, BLU, NIN, DRK, WHM, SMN, etc… really everything but BLM it seems.

Did a few HNM camps as well, we got Aspi on… Thursday? night, and I got myself a pretty:

Hehe. Can go have fun on RDM with Chigoes now and work on that skill. A Body dropped but I didn’t actually pay any attention to who got it, I was kinda very tired.

Last night I did some Nyzul with Fatkat and others from LB, got to go on COR which is about as helpful as BRD when you’re running around like mad, but was nice on the boss, since we got Hydra (was floor 100). No hat drops though. :( Few random weapons on the way up and such, plus on the boss obviously. Mostly I spent the time trying to make sure my macros were set up properly… and find them again.

Then for event time they went to do La Vaule triggers… again. Not quite sure why so fascinated with this, I don’t know when they actually use them all and whatnot. Yuchi asked me to come NIN, which was like… haha, now to try and find and use all my macros on THAT job. Didn’t do too badly once I tweaked a few things, and some of those mobs are kinda fun in that annoying way to deal with. Heh.

Was on this mob I realized why Yuchi wanted me to tank… so everyone could take swings at me when they or I got charmed! :)

Some Nidhogg camping after, but I passed out pretty quickly, so nothing to show there. Think it was just Faf anyway.

All in all, mostly things continue on what was our norm anyway. As it was, I wasn’t doing much in the shell, the NAs were never really around to do much, so this situation doesn’t immediately change much. What now is more of… what do we do to move forward?

I did speak with Yuchi some about the situation. Recruiting is realy the most unappealing thing. So then it’s either try to work within the JP timelines and find outside groups to do… well, pretty much everything, or considering finding another linkshell. And I’ve been considering that possibility since before all this happened. Just now.. I have even less tying me to TK. :/

Right now, I find myself back to the old standby of soloing puddings, back on the wall side where I prefer for some odd reason. My BLM buffer is always suffering, and I can never really seem to pinpoint why. Hehe. :)
