rules

..   RULE ONE
Probably best I get this out of the way with. I do not ship LuluxWakka, I never have and I never will. I personally see them as close family, but not lovers, sorry! As an add on to this, I do ship chemistry. Not that shipping is all that important to me, but when it does happen, I need there to be chemistry and not just 'your muse and my muse is hot'. However, if you are interested, please do hit me up because I might be thinking the same thing and I'm being shy about saying anything.
..   RULE TWO
Drama I don't tolerate it, nor do I tolerate call out posts, (unless of course someone is being genuinely harmful to others, then it is up to us to keep everyone safe) if I see you engaging in too much drama or reblogging call-out posts, I will be blocking you. Also, I have been on this website since 2011 (with a 3 year gap) if you hear anything about me, you're welcome to come and chat to me about things, I am more than happy to answer questions or clear the air if needs be.
..   RULE THREE
You are more than welcome to continue an ask meme as a thread! I always put them into a new post to answer them (unless it's an anon) so don't worry about needing to start a whole new post. Basically, if you want to do the thing, then do the thing!!

..   RULE FOUR
Mun is of age (I'm in my 30's) and so I would much rather people under the age of 21 do not follow me. I don't write a lot of smut, I have to feel comfortable with the person I'm writing with for that to happen, however, there will be mature themes present. As there will be mature themes I will do my best to tag triggers accordingly. If I have missed something, or I'm writing about something that is upsetting for you, please drop me a DM and I will tag it in whatever way you need to keep your dash a safe space for you. Personally, I would really appreciate if you could tag any posts with spiders.
..   RULE FIVE
There will be times in which my activity is slow or I'm just not here at all. I'm in the process of getting a diagnoses for an ongoing health issue. There are days I am in so much pain that I can't think straight, other times it's just at the point where sitting at my desk is just not going to happen. I want to thank you in advance for your patience, and I will get onto things asap!
..   RULE SIX
Thank you for reading my rules thus far, I'm sure I've missed things but the most important ones are here! I would like to add that I don't care about formatting, whether you use big or small text, icons or no icons or whether you have fancy graphics. We're all here to write and have fun, so let's do just that! I also do have discord, but I won't be giving it out quickly as I like to build trust first.

BEFORE HER FINAL PILGRIMAGELulu was born in the Thunder Plains, her mother and father were Freya and Orion. She doesn't remember her time spent with her tribe (her tribe specialised in Thunder Magic, though with age they would manifest new elements in their repertoire) as when she was still a babe, no older than one Winter, soldiers from Bevelle came and decimated their small settlement and enslaved any survivors.Lulu's earliest memories are of Bevelle, mostly the time spent alone as her parents were performing their duties within the Holy temple, tending to Priests and acolytes alike. Their main duty, however, was to protect the temple from Sin should the beast turn its gaze upon the city and wreak havoc upon it. This did unfortunately happen when Lulu had just turned five years old. her parents were killed in the ensuing attack and she was spirited away by someone that worked within the temple proper and boarded onto a ship with other children that had found themselves orphaned.It was several weeks before the ship docked, and she soon learned that the southern most island in all of Spira, Besaid, was to be here new home. Not long after, she met Chappu and Wakka who had also recently lost their parents and the three of them quickly became friends, family the trio so desperately missed.Five years later, a new Calm would be upon the citizens of Spira, and for one little girl, that meant losing her father. Yuna was brought to Besaid Island by the silent Ronso, Kimahri, and once again, Lulu found herself with a new member of her family. It would be another three years before Yuna expressed her wishes to become a summoner, like her father before her, and this wish prompted Lulu to train to become a Guardian in the hopes that she could defeat Sin first, As she couldn't dissuade Yuna from her chosen path. Alas, she was not successful in her endeavours and eventually would be on a Pilgrimage with Yuna as they made their way to Zanarkand, a Pilgrimage which would uncover many dark secrets concerning Yevon and Sin's origins, and change the future for Spira and all who called it home.

history

THE FIRST PILGRIMAGELulu's first Pilgrimage as a sworn Guardian was to Lady Ginnem when she was just fifteen years old. Filled with determination and perhaps a little over-confident, ignoring the advice of her elders, Lulu was to be Ginnem's sole Guardian.The pair bonded quickly, Ginnem admiring Lulu's strength of character and the wisdom she carried beyond her years. Ginnem decided within the first few days of knowing Lulu that she would make it her mission to get the girl to loosen up a little and enjoy the life that she had while she had it, often reminding her that any day could be their last and there was no harm in smiling and enjoying the journey.The pair made a formidable team and eventually made it beyond the Holy City of Bevelle and to the Calm Lands. It was here that Ginnem heard the tale of a Fayth that had been stolen from its temple and hidden somewhere in the Calm Lands. Seeing an opportunity to increase her chances of reaching Zanarkand and obtaining the Final Aeon, Ginnem spent day and night searching for this lost Fayth and was finally able to trace it back to a cavern near the foot of Mount Gagazet. It would be here that Ginnem would meet her demise, Lulu was under prepared and grossly outnumbered. It was here that a Fiend attacked her, taking her left eye and Ginnem's life with it. After her summoners death, Lulu wandered the Calm Lands near blindly for weeks before she was found and nursed back to health.THE SECOND PILGRIMAGEFather Zuke was to be the second summoner that Lulu was Guardian to during her eighteenth summer, only this time Wakka accompanied her. The trio made it as far as the Calm Lands before Zukes resolve wavered and he gave up the pilgrimage. Lulu and Wakka returned home, defeated.By the time Lulu reached twenty-one, Chappu, whom she had been romantically involved with, announced that he had joined the Crusaders and would be leaving for Djose to fight Sin. He did not return and would never propose to Lulu as he planned.

.            ( Final Fantasy )
This verse takes place after the events of Final Fantasy X with some X-2 thrown in. As I don't ship LuluxWakka, there will be some differences, the main being that Lulu will never marry Wakka and she will never give birth to Vidina. This verse is mainly an exploration of what happened immediately after Sin was defeated and beyond..
..   đŸ‡ģīš• 🇹🇭đŸ‡Ē đŸ‡ĩ🇮🇱đŸ‡Ŧ🇷🇮🇲đŸ‡ĻđŸ‡ŦđŸ‡Ē
.            ( Final Fantasy )
This verse takes place during the pilgrimage. If you aren't a canon FFX character, there's no need to shy away from requesting this one! With a little bit of plotting and some basic knowledge of FFX's story, you too can experience a Pilgrimage of your own!

Looking for a little modern flavour in your threads? Don't know anything about Final Fantasy but want to write with me? Or just want something more slice-of-life with the added bonus of modern technology? This verse is for you! Set in modern times, Lulu is an Okinawan native that is travelling the world solo and soaking up Western culture. Magic and the supernatural are also welcome in this verse!

The last thing Lulu remembers is being on the deck of the airship and staring down the gaping maw of Sin before her world turned to black. When she awoke, Lulu found herself in a land filled with ash and decay before being found by some friendly travellers. They told her the land was filled with the Blight and that nothing survived there for long. If you're an FFXVI blog looking to write with Lulu, this is the verse for you! I have completed the game so no need to worry about spoilers!!

.            ( Final Fantasy )
Like all great heroes across the series, Lulu has been summoned to fight in the war of Light versus Dark. This verse is good if you're looking to find a way to interact with Lulu in a Final Fantasy setting and are feeling burned out either by your respective title story or mine.

.            ( fandom )
Lulu has found herself in Midgar and on the wrong side of Shinra. The mega corporation is fascinated by her natural use of magic without the aid of Materia and which to learn how she is capable of it. This can be set during any of the Final Fantasy VII titles and can be adjusted accordingly.
This is just a list of my most active verses at the moment, if you don't see one that will work for you, drop me a DM and we'll figure something out together!!
