Endangered Species

I'm still around, just haven't had much of interest to post.  Some scattered screencaps.

 Augustinia reading over her notes from her Clock Tower raid research.

 Yes, I really named two characters after Kirito and Asuna from Sword Art Online (my second JD and my third Asoka).

 Lucius decked out for Legion War with Joey the Acorchado Pet.

 Etienne and Flavia in formalwear.

 Code L, whom I cannot afford, along with Kevin.

 Maria and Marjoria posing their new costumes.

Finally completed this costume set.  :p  Shiro the White Tiger Pet wants a hug!

Post #650: Three Barrack Slots Robbery

We interrupt our regularly scheduled Character Files to lodge this complaint!

The 145th Character/17th Quarter costs you THREE BARRACK SLOTS.

I feel robbed.  It came without warning.  ;__;  My precious Barrack Slots!!!

I had a brief soapbox moment where I whined to my fearless leader.

AND HE TELLS ME THAT THE 18TH QUARTER COSTS YOU FOUR BARRACK SLOTS.

He's not the type to joke with me, so I have to take his word.  D:

WHY WHY WHY YOU GOTTA DO THAT?!

Oh my god, I'm currently at 146 characters +9 that are yet to be released means I will be breaking into that 18th Quarter.  Orz

This is what you get for being a bloated family...  (A clannie calls all families above 70, "bloated".)

Sigh.

Well, some screen capture spammage to ease my tension...

My chibi-est characters...  Cadet Lionel2 (no prizes for guessing where the name Leon.Scott comes from - I requested for him for my reward on the Crystal Hogger Event), Van, and Anis are Vets.  I currently have Asoka3 and Kess3 who are at HM 7.  Kess2 and Kess3 are still working on their Flintlock... don't know why I forgot to level those on them.

Deepest part of Hell.

Is Emi going to crown him or conk him on the head?

Not someone/thing you want to meet in a dark alley.

Illusion's and Emilia's costumes were obtained from the MM (Lyndon Box).

Natalie's Summer costume is from the Crystal Hoggers Event.

Her expression really doesn't change.

How I feel about the THREE BARRACK SLOTS robbery.

Random derpy moment with Spy Olivia and Snow Montoro.

An incognito female wizard hugging my precious Joey.  D:

Blog Banner Update

Eh heh heh, I haven't changed anything with my blog layout for over three years...  Ever since I was eagerly awaiting Adriana's recruitment quest.  Now I finally have a new character I'm eagerly awaiting for again~!  Leona~!  So I went and created a new banner.  ^^;  Ugh... so uncreative.

Meanwhile, here is random screencap!

Trevor and Terrence give Lucius a shock.
Now he doesn't know where his loyalties lie...

June 19th, Come What May

Down to the last ten characters to vesp up to High Master 10-100%

Chug chug chug like the little train that could.

I'm kind of looking forward to that day.

Starting to get tired of it.

Just want to be done.

#feelslikehighschoolsenioritis

I won't be able to reach Family 77, but maybe when T3 finally gets around to patching Armonia 5 and we have Anis, Van, and regular Bryan to add to the family.

Even then I don't think I would make it unless I throw in Viki #3...

If only T3 would listen to the masses and sell a Rosa package.  ._.

I'll try to continue to pew pew pew to my little ferret heart's content until that day.

I miss being in the We Love Muskies Fan Club.

My preciousss pistols...

I do look forward to seeing that mysterious red-black clad blonde girl.  ;o

Happy New Years Pioneers!

Over Christmas, Zachary found two Christmas Seeds and planted them on his farm.

The presents were not what he expected.

"What?  A baby sister?!?!"

 Ghosts of Christmas past and future!

 Past, Present, and Future?

Max decided for 2015, he would turn over a new leaf.

He spent the last few hours of 2014 getting into fights.

("To get it out of his system", he said.)

Poor Ben wet his pants.

"Nooo!  Not my face!  Anywhere but the face!!!"

In the end, guys will be guys, besties.  ;p

"No use crying over spilled beers!"

Rolling in 2015 with an impromptu dance sequence!

(Correct, Ben didn't get a chance to change his pants.)

Peace out, adios 2014!

Max heads for another bar and nearly got tangled in a cat fight.

The year can't officially end yet until Max chills out with the ladies.

Will Max follow through with his New Year's Resolution?

"Ha!  Ye of little faith!"

"2015, are you ready for the new Maxillian?"  ;D

Best wishes for 2015!

Natural Mascara Eyed Bunny

Two new events this week, but not too much I wish to say about them.

Some randomness instead!

Trevor met an imposter.

Trevor: If you're going to impersonate me, you had better come up with something

better than a cheap parlor trick of symbols dropping.  I make people drop dead.  >3

Trevor: No, no, you're doing it all wrong!  They say, 'Imitation is the

sincerest form of flattery', but you're absolutely ridiculous! [disgusted sigh]

Max being a flirt...

Maximilian: Hey there, pretty lady.  Blue really brings out your eyes.  ;D

No.  Max.  No.  Keep your roaming hands to yourself!

Stay away from the Armonia lady or Reiss will come after you.  >[

Max put in for a two week vacation to Brazil so he can let loose.

The House of Ferragamo is too strict for him.

 He might find his employment terminated and replaced by Camillia when he returns.

Viki giving Auntie Grandies a buff before bedtime.

Seagulls & Seaturtles: Dangerous Delivery

Nothing exciting to share.  Some random screencaps though.

 Relentless Madame was relentless.

Max got a headache (pinches bridge of nose).

Valkyria caught Max hugging Nena.

"You shameless hussy!"

(It's really Max's fault though.)

Return of Franken Ferret

The last three characters got promoted to Master!  Heidia, Lindsia, and Sabrinia!

I've been working on leveling characters, still a long ways to go until Level 70...  But doing pretty well otherwise, 45 characters have reached Master 10 (former High Master), eight have reached or about to reach Master 15 (new High Master).  35 Masters are Master 5.  There are still 24 fresh Masters!  p(.\/.)q  Determined look.  All 104 characters must max out by year end!!!

Haven't made progress on the last basic Artifact because Durant being a dud and not giving me Soft Cotton Yarn or Peace Insignia.  Nor am I having luck with Moon Pieces.

One of the things I don't get to do very often anymore is screencaps.  Usually when I am active, there's a lot of running around doing daily quests.  Not much time to do random silly things like screencap a scene.

Well, here are two of the lovely Miss Sabrinia.  ^^

 Catch me if you can!

 Umm... No... thank you....

[How do I turn him down politely?]
(I rather like the colors of their clothing, they're similar!)

Midnight Snacks, it's what we do!

Here are a few highlights for the past week!

Went on a CT run and on the 12th floor Punisher was rolling, but alas, it was not to be.  Constantin (Kaisse) is without that stance.  :<  The poor guy only has Flintlock and was leveled to Master with Outrage.  ^^;  What can I say, I'm frugal, conserving my vis for other things instead of buying bullets for Flintlock.  In any case, Outrage is better to use for AFK leveling.

Still keeping eye out for last two old cash costumes and the hair for Mifuyu.  Was gifted a fiery weapon costume!  *_*  Except that Isabella (BSI) uses a greatsword instead of polearm, so not likely to see the costume.  Secret!Hidden!Weapon!Costume!  ;3

Crafted another Artifact!  I received help with the Soft Cotton Yarn.  (Thank you!!!)  I've been doing my best to keep up with Durant quests in hopes of getting Artifact materials.  Sometimes I get lazy...  It takes me about three ET buffs with Francois (Ion) and Octavia (Cathy INT) running up and down collecting up mobs and AOE'ing.  Next goal is to reach 100 Royal Insignia.

Attended Fury Sekhmet and got a Magama Storm Ring (Ludin's Efreet skill)!  :o  I've only started to go recently because I happen to be around.  From the sounds of it, the roll rate is low?  It's going to be like Pokemon, gotta catch them all!  (Ferret snatch!)  I have all the Frost rings because they drop in BH Ice Wizard, but I haven't paid attention to my Tempest rings, not really sure where I got them from because I don't go to Lightning Gate (I'm guessing this is where they drop?), plus I'm not a Beatrice user, so I'm not pressed to get them.

Another thing about clan raids, before the server transfer we took pride in keeping the number one rank on the server, but since the transfer, every week the ranking refreshed, and now we only do them when we get a new member who needs them for Family Attribute quests and the occassional member who isn't already Esmero.  Clan raids used to be the only time I really interacted with the clan.  They were short and kinda fun, and it was where I got my Books for Ion quest.  ^^;  (I kind of want to see us finish Curse of Red Sunset Forest, that was one we had difficulty under G1, I'm sure we would have no problem finishing it now.)

Nowadays it's only going to Montoro with clannies.  CT isn't fully clan and neither is ToC.  ToC I tend to have reliable people I ask* and we generally are able to start ASAP without the room having to restart.  (Thank you, timely people!)  Asking in Clan Chat is usually met with a wall of silence.  :<  The clan members for TP runs at night have started to shrink...

Which leads me to the last subject... that I will post next week.  Yeah, I'm pulling American Idol Ryan Seacrest, "The results... when we come back [from commercial break]."  Poor cliff hanger.  This post is getting too long, I figured I would save it for another week.  Or maybe I just want you guys to come back next week.  XD

[*I think I do all right when I try to organize Crow/Back Alley/ToC runs, a few times I did okay with Tigres, but CT takes too many people and I'm just not up for trying to organizing one.  Ferret is not a leader by nature.]

I leave you with pimp!Max, sitting on the couch at the end of Circus.

Why do I suddenly want to see Joey and Max faceoff?

JosephDominic: How many times do I have to tell you to refrain from calling me that name?
Maximilian: I'm sure I can beat pretty boy.  :D*  [grin with sparkle in teeth]
JosephDominic: [...]  I am surrounded by idiots.

Lake with Otters

A mini update and then a game of "Caption This" while you're waiting for maint to be over.

✿ Maximilian (Veil) and Constantin (Kaisse) made it to Master
❀ Cordelia (Cathy SUM) is High Master
✿ Aishia (Rescue Knight), Rico (Gracielo), and Julian (Baek Ho) working towards Master
❀ A very nice accessory dropped today!

And now...

CAPTION THIS!

     Laurent          Stella          Maximilian

I took this screencap during a rare random posing with friend.  Always scurrying around!  Ferret rarely idles in town!

Cozy

A little merriment in the town celebrating a goal reached.

Valkyria seems a little too merry though.  And Renton!  Underage drinking?!  :o  For shame!

\(^.^)/ Blog Guardian evolved!

Bubbles and Bubbles

Lately the afternoons and evenings have become DD hunts > ToC > TP Rose > TP daily > TP something > Crow > Back Alley > Prison > Circus > Kielce dailies

I switch teams depending on the raid.  Cause I get bored if I stick to the same ones...  Triple WC, Lio/Ralph/Emi, JD/Musk/Emi, or JD/Grandies/Emi.  (Don't talk to me about magic characters, sigh.)

Just flying around looking at scenery to chill out.  :o

Water 水

Went to do the daily TP Jurgen and did my best to stay PF'd while trying to WC.  Will have to keep practicing.  :x

My "main" team went to hang out with Barrol and had a few drinks too much.  Ana was dancing on table top!  :o

Wood 土

Something I screencapped and forgot to post.  Poor little Kano, trapped in an hourglass.  How does she breathe?!  T.T

Metal 金

Went to hunt that Encyclopedia for quest and ran into a red Souveran.  They didn't try to kill me though.  :o

After finishing a TP run, Ferret saw her costume idol, Eo-sama!  :D
