Zef swears a lot relative to her overall speech - simmering eruptions of expression from someone usually guarded. She does so vociferously & with variety, but is best known for the ever-relevant 'Oh for *fucks* sake'. It would surprise no-one to learn that her ancient invented the Concept #zeflore 🧵

How does you WoL/OC swear? Do they go with generic curse words? Maybe invoke the twelve or some aspect of them?

Zef is full of hope. She doesn’t realise it. It’s buried under layers of self-loathing; obscured by cynicism, fear, anger - even despair. It's almost guttered out countless times, but it endures. One foot in front of the other, she never gives up.
Until she does.

Zef is like a starless night; silent and opaque at first glance, but revealing subtle shades as your eyes adjust. The poised moment when the lights of civilisation behind you cease illuminating your path, and you step into the wilder-dark, exhilarated but unafraid; finding home. #zeflore
#wolqotd id you could describe your WoL/OC without describing their physical appearance, how would it be?

Zef's speech patterns are something I've put a lot of thought into, but I don't feel like I've done as good a job as I'd like of portraying so far. It's something that changes a lot over the course of her story - in certain company at least 😅 Thread in replies with more details! #zeflore 🧵⬇️

For those that write fic/rp/otherwise write, what's the most distinctive aspect of your WoL/oc's speech pattern or narrative voice?

I've written a thread about this before from the contraceptive perspective before that I'll link below - but std's aren't something Zef ever really comes up against, being profoundly demi and only having had two partners. Howeverrr she's not without some experience of the downsides... #zeflore 🧵⬇️

🥰 Thank you! The fae bracelets bit is without doubt the most whimsical and silly thing in all of Zeflore, but always thought to myself - they deserve it in amongst all the angst! 😅🥰

G'raha first proposed to Zef the night before the Scions parted after EW; a promise to bind them as his path took him back to Sharlayan, where she couldn't bring herself to follow.

Zef and G'raha split their time between three residences - the Annexe, their small home in Ishgard, and the Island when time allows. The house is their bolt-hole, somewhere to escape their other commitments and just be. An older thread with some more details linked below! #zeflore 🧵

Zef left her finances almost entirely in Tataru’s care since joining the Scions, until post-EW. She’s always continued to take odd jobs here and there, and barely spends; added to the stipend she still receives from the Flames, she has means enough for her modest living. #zeflore 🧵
What would you say is your character's main source of income IC? Do they earn their gil through random quests on their adventure, or are they perhaps a skilled crafter?
Would you say your character is well off or more on the poor side?

In the CT scene when the doors are closing, G'raha seems to be saying something that didn't get shown to us!!! What do you think he says? What does he say to your WoL? I'd love to know!! <3

When Zef was a child, she rarely referred to them as anything - there were only ever the three of them around, and it was always clear who was talking to who. Moreover, something always felt strange to her about those titles - uncomfortable, like she didn't deserve to use them. #zeflore 🧵
inspired by a post i saw on twitter bur how does your wol/oc refer to their parents (if they do at all)? does it reflect their personality or is it a result of the way they were raised/grew up to view them/etc? #wolqotd

This snip is from one of the very first things I wrote for Zef back in 2022. I might have been a bit overinvested in pasting in game mechanics at the time, but I still vibe with the idea 😅 There's a more recent thread linked in the replies too where I've talked about some of this before! #zeflore

Amalthea was confidence embodied - utterly certain, at ease with herself - Complete. Her arrogance matched Hades' own, but where he yet kept faith with something greater than himself - Amaurot, and all it represented to him - she lived wholly by her own whims, scornful of its mores. 🧵 #zeflore

In game, Emet Selch/Hades sees the WoL as a shadow of their former self (aka Azem). What about your WoL seems so contradictory to Azem that that is why Hades refuses to acknowledge they're the same person? Personality, fighting style, etc, etc, up until the end?

For a long time they were content enough with the promise they made to one another after EW - there was no real urgency to fulfil it. But as G'raha wakes beside Zef in the For'ard Cabins after the events of DT, it occurs to him that the time has never been better. Snips from an old WiP! 🧵 #zeflore

Zef returns from the First in a storm of urgency. She tears through the Find, grabbing the first bird she sees and urging it mercilessly toward the Toll. She sees to the Scions first - not only are they her family, but their preservation is what G'raha had sacrificed himself for.

Neck, shoulders and back - but mostly her back, and that's a lot of real estate 😅 She'll come apart from nothing but a firm massage under the right circumstances, though it takes a while. A tight grip on her hips or waist - or better yet, biting - helps. 🧵 #zeflore #zefspice
