Final Fantasy XVI - PC • Clive + his father
Clive Rosfield FINAL FANTASY XVI (2023) dev. Square Enix
Don't mind me just staring at a picture of a feather and a flower and feeling a wave of unexplainable happiness
Working on a little somethin' somethin', PhoenixFlare style ~ help I can't decide whether to make this an actual pattern or stickers or postcards or-
🥹😭🤧🥲
Tears of joy tho, they're so cute!

This is really cute tho
Finally here it is!
Yes I "Lionkinged" Dion and Terence.
Just imagine a moment in their later teen years on an excursion in the Greatwoods.
It's corny, yes, but seriously after everything they went through in the game? They -deserve to be silly normal dudes in love.
Now here's a serious question: in Valisthea, are dragoons (and everyone if they have the training) able to naturally jump like this, or do they have to be using magic - perhaps Light magic specifically? Some of Dion's attack jumps are specifically using Light magic to create the shockwave, but in this instance we see he doesn't have to be doing a Jump/Dive attack to be able to just launch himself further than any regular jump should manage.
One of the more hilarious things in the game is that the jump button for Clive makes him jump like a NORMAL PERSON. Unlike in, say FF13 (the sequels especially where there is a designated jump button), he can't naturally launch himself from a dead stop to arguably higher than his own height (magically enhanced or not). I question the inclusion of a jump button if it's going to be so useless and you have Garuda powers to launch you in the air if necessary.
So does that mean in Sanbreque, with their prejudices against Bearers, technically the dragoons are using some kind of magic-infused armor or weapons while still not wielding actual magic themselves? Is Dion the only one capable of using a Jump/Dive without it needing to be an attack? Is this why Dion always has his spear when he Primes - to help him focus his magic? When shit went down in Twinside, he Primed *without* holding his spear, but it was present when he eventually De-primed, suggesting that it is somehow tied to his Prime (or the devs needed him to have his spear in the next cutscene and didn't want us to think about it that hard).
Sidenote: why did the game feel it necessary to tease Dion dying here? Did it feel like that to anyone else? Like "I will be with you anon" as the last man to fight to buy the ship enough time to eacape...and he does - proving in the process that he is far better to be the last man buying the ship time when Clive's escape against the Sleipnirs ended with him barely clinging to the Enterprise and telling Mid to punch it. Dion is able to actually jump a long distance even when the ship is taking off. Cool. But why focus on Dion buying them a few extra seconds? Just to show off for ONE scene? Why did it feel like they were teasing that he might not make it...when he easily does?
Anyway, I rant as always
DION LESAGE ↳ Elusive Jump
SOMEONE DREW IT YES
So like… did they actually check that Dion could still prime before pulling that little stunt or…?
I imagine this is the portrait of him hung in the palace tho
Dion Lesage
Okay everybody listen up! I haven't found most of the official ship names and I'm too lazy to continue scouring Tumblr, so I need to compile a list myself! Reblog with your preferred ship name for any given ship not listed and/or challenge one another to single combat until we come to a consensus on conflicting names for the same ship!
My contribution:
PhoenixFlare - Joshua x Dion (Phoenix x Bahamut)
FlareKnight - Dion x Terence
PhoenixFlareKnight - Joshua x Dion x Terence
FrostFire - Jill x Clive (Shiva x Ifrit)
FireBolt - Clive x Cid (Ifrit x Ramuh)
StoneStorm - Hugo x Benedicta (Titan/Garuda)
I have no other ships off the top of my head but Barnabas/Odin should probably be Dark-something.
I'll honestly also accept Flame for Clive, but is it too close to Flare? Idk. Opinions?
Barnabas Tharmr, probably
What do you mean all my problems can't be solved by cleaving things in twain with an ancient mighty blade. You're sounding awful cleavable right now.
I'm having withdrawal symptoms from Joshua I need him carnally.
Dude this is so pretty...
Works with Phoenix and Ifrit made for FFXVI merch. Great game which I love with all my heart
I need to bite Joshua Rosfield
Behold his nose scrunch your honor
