Can't spell day without yda after all

realized a lot of very early arr event disorder can be chalked up to mitr'a instinctively considering yda a greater authority than papalymo and thus generally ignoring him. yda was probably delighted

if papalymo wanted his input to be given any weight maybe he should have been a woman

Yda, Gold Saucer edition.

Should have tried to put the bunny ears on her too, but oh well~

"lyse stops being comedic relief post-heavensward from grief and the weight of imminent war" and "lyse's silliness was a years long act to replicate yda that she is at last able to drop" are both so good

I say a few drinks, but he's absolutely drinking Thancred under the table. I think he joined in the drinks with Yda and Moenbryda and laughed at Thancred before ultimately helping him to his room at the end of the night

Misago: "Thancred, why am I the only one that dressed up for this occasion?"
Thancred: "You look absolutely smashing, Misago. I've said it before and I'll say it again."
Misago: "That was a joke the last time you said it."

Incapable of thinking of Yda and Papalymo in Gridania without thinking of my boyfriend’s comic where they’re high and Yda is like, “oh my god wasn’t someone supposed to be watching for primals,” and Papalymo is like, “girl I think that’s our job.”

"Her eyes are blue"

I didn't plan to give Sev any lore at all when I started the game. But then I met Yda and started learning about how people shipped their WoLs with NPCs they liked.

Then at the Bloody Banquet, Yda had her mask damaged and I saw her blue eyes. And that's when Sev began.

What was the starting thought that made your wol(oc)?

Oh that goes crazyyyyyy I confess I haven’t read original Yda short but imagine if she was playing up the clumsiness to reassure and entertain a kid sister or something
November 8, 2026 at 5:18 PM
I could have sworn for the life of me that Yda had optional dialogue where she is conflicted about the refugees being turned away but it has been a very long time and I cannot find it

learning about yda lore for my gwf presentation made me go kind of crazy. haunting the narrative ass woman

gesi's a background character in heavensward bc he fled with his husband (and their kid) and yda in arr. my partner's wol (hana) is the main wol in hvw :)
#wolqotd if your Warrior of Light is more of a B Plot character to another WoL/Meteor's A Plot, how do you make that distinction in your recollection of the story? That is to say, what story beats/plot lines/side quests does your specific character inhabit that Meteor doesn't in your scenario?

Yda is described as very silly, bad at school, and indulgent in her EE section! Makes me wonder what Lyse was like as a child before things naturally started to meld together......
November 8, 2026 at 5:21 PM
you should read the Yda+Fordola short story because you're almost exactly on the money for her playing it up on purpose at times
November 8, 2026 at 5:46 PM
but for right now - minfilia 'dead', yda and papalymo missing, the warriors of darkness about - it's what she needs. she can be a spear. she can be a tool. she can be a peacekeeper. she does these things because she can, not because she truly, deeply wants to.

Sooo... Thancred is Thancred, Papalymo is Palalymo, Y'shtola is Y'shtola, and you are you, right? Well, that's easy enough to remember. This one's name is Yda, in case walking one was wondering. ...JOKE! I'm joking! Don't you DARE scalebomb me again!

During ARR’s Coerthas msq where she, Alphinaud and Cid were trying to save the remaining scions, the list of people of whom Layla could fully confide in was very short.

There’s Minfilia (with whom she has a very complicated relationship to begin with)
Alphinaud (because she’s stuck with him)

lrp insane position to put thancred in (having to drag a blonde haired blue eyed young woman away from an older sibling figure knowing they'll never see each other again). insane thing for papalymo to experience from this end (guy who had to drag lyse away from yda when yda made her last stand)
